Quantum Entanglement and The Mystery of Prayer

I think and read, quite often as a matter of fact, about quantum physics and the connection of all that is. It's actually called QUANTUM NON-LOCAL CONNECTION. Huh?? What this means is that when my atoms become entangled with yours, our atoms now move simultaneously across the distance. So think about this...we breathe molecules that have been on this earth and breathed endless times by every creature since the very first oxygen and nitrogen hooked up. I have breathed the same air as dinosaurs, cavemen and King Tut. Every atom I have ever taken into replenish my blood has been connected to other atoms take in by another throughout time. Even through the air we are all connected. We are, quite literally, space dust. I know, I'm weird..but I am not the only one. There are websites dedicated to proving our connectivity. There are movies made discussing quantum thoughts such as "What the !$#*&^%?" There are papers written from a scientific perspective stating this very thing.

What does this have to do with my thoughts on God? Well, the theory is that prayer works because all things are connected at the atomic level. The power of your mind and thoughts sends out small waves of energy that cause atoms to move. When we focus our minds on a person, place, thing the very energy of our thoughts is now focused and moving in sync with the atoms and elements of that person, place or thing. I know it sounds slightly insane and I have been accused of insanity more than once, but these theories ( have you ever noticed that theory and theology have God at the beginning....) have been tested. The Water Crystals of Masaru Emoto is a perfect example of this Prayer Thought in action. Thoughts and prayers both positive and negative were said over different samples of water and then the water was frozen to form crystals. The results were astounding. We as humans consist of 98% water. What would happen if we were to pray and meditate on good thoughts over the water of our bodies? What healing could occur? It's rhetorical, but one can only begin to imagine.

Monks, priests, nuns and others have used the power of prayer and meditation over the centuries to extend their lives, slow their hearts and see the divine. They affected their bodies on the level of the atom, the quantum if you will. They have proven that it works.

Positive thoughts create positive results because at the very fabric of all that is everything is connected or entangled if you will. Don't be fooled. Negative thoughts work in the same way. We can destroy our lives with negative meditation. Thoughts of self loathing such as, "I'm not good enough." and No one can ever love me." make those ideas to become true in reality as a self fulfilling prophecy. I believe it is possible to negatively affect the lives of others through negative thoughts and meditations.Why some one would feel the need to actually do this us beyond my ken, but I know that it happens and PERHAPS I am unknowingly guilty. Does my passing thought of distrust toward the man on the corner begging for my change cause an actual negative reaction in his life? Perhaps not in and of itself, but what of the hundreds of people a day who think exactly that same thought. What then? I wonder....

I suppose my point is this, I will pray for you if you would like. I will think good and meaningful thoughts about you and to you. I will think to move our entangled atoms in a wonderfully connected direction. I believe that the effect will be positive and good for you. I likewise believe that my good thoughts for you, make positive things occur in my life as well.

We are all connected at the fabric of the universe. It sounds like a great deal of wishful thinking. I like the sound of that.

Where Have I Been?

All you have to do is look at my blog to see that I have disappeared. Where on earth did I go anyway? It seems that my life and my thoughts have been kidnapped by my daughter. I never meant for this blog to be about my child so I will start a new one dedicated to my life as a mother.

This needs to be about my thoughts and my thoughts on God, life, relationship and love.

I have actually been giving my life with God some very deep thoughts as of late. Mostly because of Cheryl's deep seated desire to go to seminary. The thought of it totally and completely scares me to death. Money, time, security and relationship... so many things come to mind as this all begins to happen. She says that she knows that God has called her and it has been that way since she was 16 or 17. The trouble is that I don't feel it. I don't know about her call. I believe that she believes it. I don't 'feel' that undeniable need to do this HUGE thing. I've always heard that if one partner knows about their "call" then certainly the other will feel the same way. Well, I'm not feeling it. I've prayed about it. I've talked to God about it. I've talked to Cheryl about it. I get nothing except this from what I can only say is most likely God, "I don't need your permission." Got it.

The thing is that I am not asking for permission. I would never think that God couldn't act without my input. I'm sure that my advice to God is something that would be found to be quite amusing. No. What I am asking for is clarity. It's been said that true faith is doing without knowing. Acting without sure knowledge. Hope in that which we cannot see. All this is fine and good, but....(There it is BUT. The big BUT.) BUT in my past I have almost always known what was the right thing for me to do in life. Go here, do this, I'm with you. God's assurance that the hand of the Creator was in it every step of the way. There may have been many tears. There was most certainly anger, doubt and a certain level of rebellion, but the assurance of what I was to do was always there.

Right now there is nothing. That assurance from God isn't there for me. So, I'm going with the flow. Wondering how I am ever going to retire. I am concerned that Jaida will never get the college education she will need without a great deal of assistance. What will we do for health care should it come to that? Will our relationship suffer for this? I can only sit back and say, "Okay, God. This is going to take a miracle. Bring it on! I dare you."

I know sacrilege. Blasphemy. Shame on me for challenging God. Fine. You go right ahead and point a finger at me and say, "God will get you for that." One can only hope. I pray that God proves me wrong. I pray that my doubt is shown weakness to God's strength. I pray that the miracles pour so fast and so furiously that I can't begin to comprehend their number. Because that is what it is going to take if we are going to get through this in one piece, as one family. Pray for us. We're going to need it.
