Quantum Physics and Death


Many of us fear death. We believe in death because we have been told we will die. We associate ourselves with our body, and we know that bodies die. But a new scientific study suggests that death is not the terminal event we think. 

One aspect of quantum physics is that certain observations cannot be predicted absolutely. A new theory called Biocentrism- refines these ideas. There are an infinite number of universes, and everything that could possibly happen, occurs in some universe. Death does not exist in any real sense in these scenarios. All possible universes exist simultaneously, regardless of what happens in any of them. Although individual bodies are destined to self destruct, the alive feeling- the "Who am I?"- is just a 20-watt fountain of energy operating in the brain. But this energy doesn't go away at death. One of the surest axioms of science is that energy never dies, it can neither be created nor destroyed. But does this energy transcend from one world to another?

According to Biocentrism, space and time are not the hard objects we think. Wave your hand through the air- if you take everything away, what's left? Nothing. The same thing applies for time. You can't see anything through the bone that surrounds the brain. Everything you see and experience right now is a whirl of information occurring in your mind. Space and time are simply tools for putting everything together.

Death does not exist in a timeless, spaceless world. In the end, even Einstein admitted, "Now Besso has departed from this strange world a little ahead of me. That means nothing. People like us…. know that the distinction between past, present and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion." Immortality doesn't mean a perpetual existence in time without end, but rather resides outside of time altogether.

If the particles that we're made of can be in instantaneous communication with one another, be in two places at once, and even change the past through choices made in the present, then we can as well. 

Our beliefs have the power to change the flow of events in the universe- literally to inter ups and redirect time, matter, and space, and the events that occur with in them.
