Universe seems to express itself in dual forms. At a fundamental level, scientific discoveries prove that space and time, matter and energy are expressions of one and the same. At an experimental level, we see wave - particle duality that takes us deep into the quantum reality of nature and the idea that 'things change just because we observe it!'
Now that is a bizarre idea. The near 14 billion years of universe history wherein organic life forms like us on earth emerged less than a billion year ago could influence the behavior of universe! If we look and stuff change because we looked, what happened when we were not even around? Did someone else from other earth like planet looked and it changed the course of history of Universe? We know not. The more closely we see, it feels like the more we don't know!
Einstein proved that nothing can travel faster than light. Yet we know that thoughts can travel almost instantaneousness to the center of Milky way galaxy and back to this blog in less than a second. What is thought and consciousness if it is not a physical entity that obeys nature's law as we know it so far? Well we only know 4% of the reality anyway. There is dark energy and dark matter that fills the 96% of the universe that we have no clue on and hence the name dark stuff. May be one day the future humanoids will find.
Bharathiyar's song on reality and dreams come to mind.
ponathellam kanavinaipoal
puthainthalinthe poanathanaal
naanum oar kanavo
intha nyalamum poi thaano
Kaanpathellam maraiyum entral
Maraindhathellam kaanpamandro
naanum oar kanavo
intha nyalamum poi thaano
What a wonderful thought! Every 125 years approximately (max age of humans so far), earth has completely new set of human beings. There is no single human born on or before 1885 today. No one who is born today will live to see the year 2135 with the current medical technologies. Yet we know about the history of Universe and our thoughts travel into the realm of dreams all the time.
After I started writing this blog, I notice that there are scientific papers on this topic. The line between physics and meta physics blurs when we think that thoughts and reality can be a dual expression of nature.
