which means that everything we do affects everything else, we are all connected, and our actions can powerfully affect the universe etc.
and our very intentions and thoughts actually change and shape matter...
this means our thoughts are extremely powerful....
matter at its most basic level doesn't actually have a particular form - it's in a quantum state - and our INTENTION actually affects what form the matter takes.
this is MAJOR - it means the way we do everything, organise our society, all our sciences, are going to need a massive re-think...
1 Corinthians 12:12-14 12 Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ. 13 For we were all baptized by[a] one Spirit so as to form one body—whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or free —and we were all given the one Spirit to drink. 14 Even so the body is not made up of one part but of many.
Romans 12:4-8 4 For just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, 5 so in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others. 6 We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your[a] faith; 7 if it is serving, then serve; if it is teaching, then teach; 8 if it is to encourage, then give encouragement; if it is giving, then give generously; if it is to lead, do it diligently; if it is to show mercy, do it cheerfully.

From the review.
McTaggart writes well and tells a good story, but the supporting data here is somewhat sketchy.edit on 4-6-2012 by buster2010 because: (no reason given)
she refers to them by name. you'll have to read the book if interested.
she also says their theories have been criticised by many other scientists who basically can't handle a complete reorganisation of the way they need to look at the world.

Even the bible says we're all connected.

its funny i was just thinking the other day how the human brain sits at an average height above the surface of our earth and that our brains form a electrical field or force field if u will that connects all of us all over the world, after this epiphany, i found myself drinking to much one night and my body wanted to empty the contents of my stomach i then had the idea to tap into the energy force field that our brains share and actually pull in energy around me to stop my diaphram from pushing everything out. it worked now maybe i have a independently strong brain that can do that on its own, just as Ive heard other people claim, but what if those people that claim mind over matter are actually tapping into this force without knowing it, i just happened to consciously try to tap in because i had thought about it a couple days before, then again i might just be a drunk that smokes to much

No they don't. I know there's an idea going around that we can affect certain things just by trying to measure them. But, intending on measuring or just thinking about measuring doesn't do anything. I'll keep an open mind if you want to elaborate, but right now I'm not buying it.

More powerful than you can possibly imagine.
With great power comes greater responsibility, and a very important philosophy I follow is - Do Not Feed The Darkside.

It was written by a journalist who has synthesised and brought together ideas from top cutting edge scientists and physicists who are studying quantum mechanics and its larger scale implications.
they are more or less saying that there exists a 'field' of energy that binds all in the universe together at a subatomic quantum level - a quantum field or 'force' if you will
which means that everything we do affects everything else, we are all connected, and our actions can powerfully affect the universe etc.
more or less explains many things religions have been teaching for a while now, the power of prayer, and eastern medicines /concepts like acupuncture and qi energy....
so they say the newtonian, darwinian ideas are now being replaced and are outdated, and that we should no longer see ourselves as individuals struggling for survival (of hte fittest) and alone in our struggle etc...
but instead we are all part of this vast web of energy, all connected to everything else in the universe on a quantum level
and our very intentions and thoughts actually change and shape matter...
this means our thoughts are extremely powerful....
matter at its most basic level doesn't actually have a particular form - it's in a quantum state - and our INTENTION actually affects what form the matter takes.
this is MAJOR - it means the way we do everything, organise our society, all our sciences, are going to need a massive re-think...
it also tends to reconcile many religious ideas with science and provide basis for them....
i highly recommend the book, it's really interesting - may change your whole world view - show it to any scientists you know as well...
(fyi: this is a copy from a thread i have posted on another forum)
the author of the book: a journalist lynne mctaggart compiled it by interviewing lots of top international scientists about their recent discoveries. there's a sequel called the 'intention experiment'.
