The Holographic Universe
"The Holographic Universe" by Michael Talbot
This is an excellent book good combination of fact and metephysical and quantum physics. It also gives you some ideas if you think about it. You cab get it used for $4-$8 and it is worth much more. Here is a comment from Amazon: Quote:

Re: The Holographic Universe
yeah i just finished reading that!!! excellent book, covers a lot of ground, and seems to be very well researched. i read that and divine matrix (gregg braden) over the past fortnight and they slot together quite nicely. was interested in the stories of "superhuman" abilities, and the stigmata section is also interesting. I liked the NDE and OBE section towards the end, things seem to pick up pace a little during that part, i found the beginning a little slow going because there are some tricky scientific principles to get your head around, but talbot does extremely well in explaining the fundamentals. now i'm reading DMT spirit molecule by rick strassman to follow on from where talbot left of with NDE, hopefully the information in that will slot as neatly into the other stuff ive read has seemed to recently. like a jigsaw
but yeah, great book, especially as it was written about 12 years ago? one thing that disturbed me though, was the guy who mass hypnotised people and did regressions, then tried progressions, and all hypnotised subjects said they saw a world where the population had been massively decreased, and the 4 scenarios the descriptions fall into do actually sound like a possible outcome of the suggested scenarios that could be on their way. the hope is, however, to change the future holographically whilst its still fluid through attitude and prayer. on the other hand, i personally believe we never truly die, so even if we fail in the material world, all is not lost also, did you catch the bit about a Near Death Experiencer (NDEer) who was supposedly shown an alternate timeline of our history which would result in us all living in peace and harmony, had an event that happened in ancient greece not taken place? its not specified in the book what exactly happened, i wonder if perhaps this is because the force behind said event is still active today...? just a thought |

Re: The Holographic Universe
The Universe as a Hologram
Author Unknown; from around 1990 some snippets. rest at: http://fredsitelive.com/fun/hologram.htm In 1982 a remarkable event took place. At the University of Paris a research team led by physicist Alain Aspect performed what may turn out to be one of the most important experiments of the 20th century. You did not hear about it on the evening news. In fact, unless you are in the habit of reading scientific journals you probably have never even heard Aspect's name, though there are some who believe his discovery may change the face of science. Aspect and his team discovered that under certain circumstances subatomic particles such as electrons are able to instantaneously communicate with each other regardless of the distance separating them. It doesn't matter whether they are 10 feet or 10 billion miles apart. Somehow each particle always seems to know what the other is doing. The problem with this feat is that it violates Einstein's long-held tenet that no communication can travel faster than the speed of light. Since traveling faster than the speed of light is tantamount to breaking the time barrier, this daunting prospect has caused some physicists to try to come up with elaborate ways to explain away Aspect's findings. But it has inspired others to offer even more radical explanations. University of London physicist David Bohm, for example, believes Aspect's findings imply that objective reality does not exist, that despite its apparent solidity the universe is at heart a phantasm, a gigantic and splendidly detailed hologram. [...] This insight suggested to Bohm another way of understanding Aspect's discovery. Bohm believes the reason subatomic particles are able to remain in contact with one another regardless of the distance separating them is not because they are sending some sort of mysterious signal back and forth, but because their separateness is an illusion. He argues that at some deeper level of reality such particles are not individual entities, but are actually extensions of the same fundamental something.

What really really got my attention was that at roughly the same time I ran across Aspect's work regarding the holographic universe, I was reading the "Enneads" of Plotinus where he says exactly the same thing - that the whole is embodied in every one of its parts. Talk about synchronicity! The way Plotinus explains it, you just know if he'd had the word holographic he'd have used it (check out the 4th Ennead). Many things are to be explained this way!
