Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 1 -
Introduction
Quantum Physics and the Holy Grail is not a book on
mathematics or equations. It has been written to express the
insights that have been given to all humankind, not just to
academics, mathematicians, or physicists. As fellow human
beings, we all share equally in this participatory universe.

way to a universe that is not independent of the observer. That
is to say and imply, a universe that responds to the observer.
Physicists such as John Archibald Wheeler (1911–2008), John
von Neumann (1903-1957), and Amit Goswami1, to name a
few, all agreed that consciousness somehow effects the
manifestation and nature of the universe.
Historically speaking, this is not a new idea. From the
most ancient Eastern religions to the idealists of Europe and
the West, consciousness as a metaphysical foundation of
reality is a very old conception. Western culture, from the
Greco-Roman period onward, began to move away from such
a worldview little by little. What then made these modern,
Western-trained
doctors
of
physics,
so
grounded
in
materialism, change their position so radically? What
happened in the quantum theory experiments that forced these
men of science to sound more like teachers of Zen Buddhism
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 2 than physicists of modernity?

the door on physics, believing that all the mechanical laws of
the universe were now known and that there was little, or
nothing, beyond what Sir Isaac Newton and others had
prescribed. Matter was considered co-eternal with the universe
itself, and there was no creation or beginning to the universe.
There was also nothing beyond the Milky Way galaxy, as their
limited instruments had most assuredly taught them; seeing is
believing, is it not?
As providence would have it, this severe under
estimation of the world, from what it truly is, was destined for
destruction by the greater truth of reality. The findings of
quantum physics, which were verified from t
he 1980’
s
forward, forever destroyed the hard objectivity of science. In

provided the signpost needed for scientists to realize the
universe had a beginning. In addition, this beginning stemmed
from a point smaller than a green pea! Oddly enough, it was a
clergy scientist, Father Georges-Henri Lemaître2, who in
1927, proposed the Big Bang theory under the designation he

Even though science has a different nomenclature than
that of Eastern philosophy, both of their conceptualizations are
very similar, if not identical. From a Hindu3 perspective, the
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 3 out-breathing
of
Brahman,
from
a
single
point
of
manifestation, creates the universe. This is similar to the Big
Bang theory of science.
Philosophers, both East and West, have been saying
for centuries that the foundation of the universe is based upon
consciousness and not upon physical matter. In fact, John von

The other aspect of this writing has to do with
consciousness itself and its relationship to everything. It has to
do with the Holy Grail and what it truly is. This then is a book
on metaphysics in the true philosophical meaning of the word.
It is about the ultimate foundation of truth. The one truth that
science, philosophy, religion, and spirituality all seek. We are
all pilgrims on the same journey seemingly going different
directions, yet with the same goal, all asking the same
question. What is the Holy Grail? The Holy Grail is the one
truth that answers the ultimate questions of science, religion,
philosophy, and spirituality. For there is no science, religion,
philosophy, or spirituality that stands higher than truth.

1. Definitions and Concepts
What is the Holy Grail? The Grail is many different
things to many different people. To some, the Grail is the cup
that Christ drank from at the last supper. For others, the Grail
is the body, bloodline, and womb of Mary Magdalene.1
Sometimes this is known by the Old French term sangrail,
meaning Holy Grail or royal bloodline. The movie, The Da
Vinci Code, makes these points quite explicitly.2 All of these
descriptions of the Grail are outward physical perceptions of

meaning is much subtler.
The word Grail is derived from the Middle Latin word
gradalis, where we also get the Latin word gradus, which
means step or degree. Our modern Latin word would be
Gradient. In other words, the Grail itself is like a ladder with
steps on it. There are seven steps; each step is a grade higher
than the one below it. These are gradients (or steps) in higher
consciousness.
The word Holy is derived from the Greek word Helios,
which refers to the Sun. Thus, the Holy Spirit is the Sun Spirit.
The Holy Bible is then the Book of the Sun. The Sun is the
ruler of Sunday. Therefore, all the Solar Mysteries take place
on Sunday, such as Christianity in all of its forms. In the field
of astrology, the Sun represents the individual consciousness
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 6 of the person involved, while the ascendant of the horoscope is
the personality.3
Ultimately, what we are dealing with here are the
many different gradients of higher consciousness. Like the
seven chakras of Eastern philosophy, there are seven levels of
consciousness for each human being. To find the Grail is to
reach the higher stages of consciousness. The highest human
stage
of
consciousness
in
Western
terms
is
Christ
Consciousness.
The Masters of Wisdom teach that there are seven rays
of creation. This is why we have seven days in a week. Each
day has a planetary ruler. Venus rules Friday. The Venus
mysteries take place on Fridays. Thus, the Muslim holy day is
Friday and it is part of the Venus mysteries. The Muslim star
and crescent are really the phases of Venus. Saturn rules
Saturday and is part of the Hebrew mysteries. The ancient
Hebrews paid homage to the star Chokma or Wisdom and is
recorded in the Old Testament (Amos 5:26). This is the planet
Saturn and it rules Saturday or the Jewish Sabbath. The Sun
rules Sunday and is, of course, the solar mystery stream. All
forms of Christianity are based on the solar mysteries.4
For every mystery stream there is a shadow stream that
is the counter image of the progressive stream. This counter
image or shadow is the unredeemed part of the mystery stream

.Thus
,
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 7 there are counter solar mysteries that work against the true
light of the intended stream. In the solar mystery case, it
would be the anti-Christ stream. This counter image stream
can only hinder, but never defeat, the intended progressive
streams of the seven rays. These counter streams serve to
develop us and ultimately will be redeemed by us as we
evolve through them. The main thing here is to recognize the
difference and to not be taken in by the counter image.
The gradient or Grail of consciousness in humanity can
be divided into at least four main compartments, according to
modern science. True science will always reflect spiritual
truth, and true spiritual knowledge will always support the
findings of real science. The four levels of human
consciousness are waking or Beta, dreaming or Alpha,
dreamless sleep or Theta, and a trance-like state or Delta.
Brain scientists have measured these states of consciousness in
cycles per second (CPS). Each state has its own CPS or
wavelength. Beta is 14-21 CPS, Alpha is 7-14 CPS, Theta is
4-6 CPS, and Delta is ¼ to 4 CPS. A Buddhist monk, who has
been meditating for twenty years, can reach the Alpha state in
just under two minutes. (He also can reach the Gamma state of
40 CPS.)
Initiates are human beings who are ahead of the rest of
us in spiritual development by thousands of years. Any highranking initiate has what is called a continuity of
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 8 consciousness.5 This means that at every one of the four stages
of human consciousness, they are fully self aware and
functioning. They do not dream, or sleep, nor are they ever
unconscious. They are consciously one with their Higher Self.
They have transformed the personality to be in absolute
harmony with our Spirit Man. They have reached full Christ
consciousness. They have obtained the Grail.
Thirteenth century stories, like Parzival6 by Wolfram
Von Eschenbach, tell of the grail knights who seek the Holy
Grail. Works such as this are the foundations for the stories of
King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. Parzival,
also known as the fool, is the one knight who finds the Grail in
this story. He actually finds the Grail castle twice. The first
time he is not developed enough to know where he is. He
needs to develop so that he can be aware when he is on higher
levels of consciousness. The story of Parzival is our story. We
are also in need of development in higher consciousness.
To find the Grail and not lose it is to see the spiritual
within the physical world. We are not to shun the physical
world. Ancient Eastern teachers taught that doctrine at one
time, and it was proper at that time in human history, but it
does not apply now. Consciousness is not static. Human
consciousness changes in time as well as the whole physical
brain and universe. We are to learn from the physical world. It
is our training ground. Use your time wisely. The goal is this,
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 9 eventually; all of humanity will find higher self-awareness as a
species.
At that time in the distant future, we will all have
found the Grail and will be ready to work consciously with the
higher progressive gods. Humanity as a whole is now known
as the Hierarchy of Love by the higher progressive gods. The
day will come when we will not experience death and
reincarnation anymore. That cycle will end. We will together
co-create a new Earth, esoterically known as the New
Jerusalem.7
We
will
then
have
the
resurrected
immortal
body/vehicle like the Christ and the Masters do. Our divine
body is the vehicle of the Grail itself and is the result of
spiritual development and consciousness. The higher gods
need us to complete their own evolution, just as we need them.
It is all for one and one for all. We eventually all get there
together. Those who are ahead of us at this time send their
love and inspiration and eagerly wait for the dawning of Sons
and Daughters of God to become manifest. I welcome you
today to join the great quest for the Holy Grail.

is a symbolic reference to the many levels of higher
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 10 consciousness
that
humanity
will

develop
sequentially. However, we do not have to wait for global
planetary initiations to occur, like the one predicted in
December of 2012 by the Mayan researchers, to obtain to
higher levels of consciousness. We can, individually and
collectively, work on them now.
The best way to work on these things is to first have a
basic understanding of occult history. This is the hidden
history as to how we really got here. If the eye is open and the
mind receptive, one will notice that we have four stages of
consciousness. We experience all of them every twenty-four
hours. These four modalities of consciousness are waking,
dreaming, dreamless sleep, and trance-like. Just as a study of
embryology can reveal a record of all the forms our human
body has gone through to reach the stage it is now at, so can
an understanding of our history of consciousness tell us even
more.
In the womb, we can clearly see that a human being
goes through a metamorphous transformation from a soft
mineral-like zygote, to something vegetable like, to an animal
with gills and a tail, and finally to the human form as we
recognize it today. This observation alone, it must be
remembered, is only a physical understanding, and does not
even scratch the surface of the greater history that led up to the
beginning of the physical world. You see, we do not evolve in
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 11 a vacuum; the solar system and the earth evolve as humanity
evolves. There is no major transformation in the development
of humanity without a cosmic parallelism. When the sexes
separated off from being androgynous, the current Moon8 of
today separated from the Earth about where the Pacific Ocean
currently resides. Every now and then, someone is born still
containing both male and female reproductive organs all in
one body.
This is one example of how the macrocosm is reflected
in the microcosm and vice versa. This spiritual fact led to
several occult expressions among the initiates. One expression
was found on the emerald tablet of Hermes Trismegistus,“

By analogy, just as one may have an insight of
physical evolutionary history by the study of embryology, one
may also observe the history of self awareness and
consciousness development in humanity, by looking at our
current four levels of consciousness. It was Dr. Carl Jung, the
psychiatrist, who first pointed out that not everyone on the
planet earth is necessarily living in the same century, mentally
speaking. Even within our four types of consciousness we are
not all equally developed.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 12 To reiterate, our four main categories of consciousness
are waking state, dreaming, dreamless sleep, and trance-like
state. To find out what these states are, how we got them,
where they came from, and in what order they were developed
is a tremendous task. To do this we must start with the
writings of Theosophy9 and Anthroposophy10. These two
movements of the 19th and 20th centuries came directly from
the impulses created by those high and mighty beings known
as the Masters of Wisdom. A great corpus of writings and
information has come from these spiritual impulses, and many
branch-like movements have sprung from them. It is from this
occult information that we shall glean our basic understanding
of these issues.
What we must first realize is that as humanity develops
and evolves, so does the solar system and the Earth itself. It is
taught that there are seven great incarnations of the solar
system and its planetary systems or chains as they are called.
We are in the fourth incarnation of our planetary system now.
This is why we have four levels of consciousness. Each one
was developed sequentially through each of the four
incarnations (or rounds) of our earth.
During the first incarnation, the roots of our physical
body were developed along with a rudimentary form of
consciousness known as the trance like state. This state is
similar to that of present day minerals and crystals.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 13 Collectively taken, this could be called the mineral kingdom.
At this stage, humanity only had a warmth body. Our Divine
Spark (or Monad) hovered over the physical body but could
not yet enter it. The Divine Hierarchy of creators created this
warmth body for us.
During the second incarnation of our planetary system,
we developed the roots of our etheric body and a rudimentary
form of consciousness known as the dreamless sleep state.
This state is very similar to that of present day plants and
vegetables. Collectively taken, this could be called the
vegetable kingdom. At this stage humanity had two bodies,
one physical and one etheric, but not densely physical like

bodies.
During the third incarnation of our planetary system,
we developed the root of our astral body and a rudimentary
form of picture consciousness now known as our present day
dream state. This state is very similar to that of our present day
animals. Collectively taken, this could be called the animal
kingdom. At this stage humanity had three bodies, one
physical, one etheric, and one astral. The planetary system at
this stage was now denser than the two prior stages. Our astral
body was still too wild and unrefined for our Divine Monads
to dwell within it.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 14 During the fourth incarnation of our planetary system,
a recapitulation of all the prior stages of planetary incarnations
repeated themselves before the fourth stage could be fully
developed. This was a common occurrence in all the prior
stages of planetary incarnations and evolution, each according
to what had preceded it. In the fourth stage, we developed the
vehicle for our ego consciousness. This allowed us to have
self-awareness. This is what we call our waking state. Our
Divine Monads were then able to incarnate during what is
called the Lumerian Period of Evolution. At this point, the
bodies of humanity were evolved enough to allow for the
incarnation of our Monad, which brought forth the beginnings
of what would later become the waking state of the lower ego.
On our current globe, the Lumerian state preceded the
Atlantean Epoch, which preceded our current Fifth Epoch.
There will be seven great Epochs on our current Earth Globe.
Figure 1-1: The above is a thumbnail sketch of the Earth Chain
Round, which is estimated to last for untold ages.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 15 We now have four bodies, not just one physical body.
We have also four states of consciousness, not just one waking
state. We have experienced the human mineral, human
vegetable, human animal, and human being stage of our
evolution through the cosmos on various different planets or
globes.11 Then next key in our understanding is to understand
the sleep cycle of modern humanity from a spiritual point of
view.
Every night we go through all of our stages of
consciousness and return in the morning, awakened and
refreshed. During the sleep cycle, the ego and the astral body
completely withdraw from the physical and etheric bodies. At
death, the etheric withdraws with the astral body and the ego,
thus ending all relationship to the physical body, which then
quickly disintegrates into minerals and dust. To a certain
degree, we die every night.12
As stated earlier, initiates are awake at every one of
these levels of consciousness according to their own personal
stage of development. Rudolph Steiner, towards the end of his
incarnation, was awake at every level of consciousness and
therefore did not sleep at night the way we do. He had what is
known as continuity of consciousness. The Western initiates
have named the first four stages of planetary evolution
discussed this far. They are as follows: the first stage is the
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 16 Saturn stage, the second stage is the Sun stage, the third stage
is the Moon stage, and the fourth stage is the Earth stage.
We are all Earth initiates if we are self aware and
awake on the Earth (or fourth stage). To be awake on both the
Earth and the Moon stage is to be a Lunar initiate. This was

Steiner was a Saturn initiate, being fully awake at all four
stages of consciousness. This allowed him to read the
universal Akasic records directly, because they exist at such a
high level of consciousness that a Lunar initiate, for example,
would not have direct access to them. A Lunar initiate would
only see the reflection of the Akasic records in the astral light,
and could easily get distorted information. However, Helena
P. Blavatsky had the help of her Eastern Masters to keep her
accurate.
Some Conclusions
I do not expect a newcomer to esoteric philosophy to
grasp all that has been discussed in this chapter. It is not
necessary that you comprehend all the data presented here; it
is only a thumbnail sketch. However, the reader will see that
as we review the latest scientific conceptualizations and
theories, they begin to resemble the teachings of the Masters
and their students.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 17 We have covered large chunks of data, though only
superficially, in this first chapter. If you care to delve deeper
into the areas discussed here in this chapter, you may like to
consider reading one of my earlier books, Essential Healing:
Therapy and Consciousness, which contains many graphics
and charts, endnotes, and a very ample bibliography that you
may find helpful.

Theosophy was a spiritual movement begun by Madame Helena P.
Blavatsky under the direct permission of the Eastern Masters of Wisdom.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 18 The outer movement was and still is human managed, but the inner
esoteric circles within the movement were under the direct overseeing of
the Masters themselves. This movement began in 1875 and is still here
today. However, in my opinion, the Masters withdrew their interest from
the movement at the death of Helena P. Blavatsky because of the
questionable actions of Annie Beasant and Charles Leadbeater, which were
in certain areas, in direct contradiction to what Blavatsky and her Masters
had taught. See The Elder Brother: A Biography of Charles Webster
Leadbeater by Gregory Tillett, and H. P. Blavatsky: The Great Betrayal by
Alive Leighton Cleather for more details. The two greatest works by H. P.
Blavatsky are Isis Unveiled and The Secret Doctrine.
10
Anthroposophy was a spiritual movement started by Dr. Rudolph Steiner
in 1912. Originally, Steiner was a spiritual teacher and head of the German
Lodge of Theosophy. Steiner had a falling out with Theosophy when
Annie Beasant and Charles Leadbeater wreaked havoc on the movement
by announcing Jiddu Krishnamurti (a young Indian boy who was
discovered by Leadbeater) as the return of Christ, the new world teacher.
The anti-Christian bias of Theosophy has never fully been abated even
today. However, it did at that time create the right cosmic condition to
allow Rudolph Steiner (who was, in fact, a higher initiate than even

Blavatsky may very well be, with a few exceptions, the two highest
initiates of higher consciousness to ever be allowed to speak publicly about
hidden truths in several thousand years.

In occult cosmology, the Earth has seven globes. Only the one we live
on now is visible. Our Monads (or Divine Sparks) will transverse each of
these globes seven times each. This is known as a Planetary Chain Round.
One Round is known as a Planetary Round, which is only one visit to each
of the seven Globes. Further, breaking it down, each Globe will have seven
conditions during each round known as root races. Humanity at the time of
this writing is in its Fourth Round, on the Fourth Globe of Seven, and is
now in its Fifth Root Race or condition, on our current Earth. This teaching
is part of the lower mysteries of initiation and occultism, which have been
made public since the publishing of the Secret Doctrine in 1888.

2. Going Quantum: The Long and Winding Road
It is hard to believe that the electron was not
discovered until 1897, just barely over a century ago.
Furthermore, the neutron was not discovered until 1932. We
all naturally assume that science proceeds sequentially and
systematically along a logical path, each step being built upon
the knowledge that went before it. However, this is not the
case, because a flawed being, a human being, is doing science.
It was at the University of Windsor that I was first
introduced to a study course on the philosophy of science. The
person of study who most impressed me was Thomas Samuel
Kuhn and his famous book, The Structure of Scientific
Revolutions1. Kuhn presumed that science proceeded in a
piece-by-piece progression. He thought a book on the history
of scientific revolutions would be easy to write and would be
obviously chronological. However, he soon discovered that
this was not the case.

transition from a geocentric earth-centered solar system to a
heliocentric sun-centered solar system, a very different story
emerged. Kuhn discovered that science does not progress via a
linear accumulation of new knowledge, but actually undergoes
periodic revolutions or jumps, which he named paradigm
shifts.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 20 Kuhn discovered that a scientist was never fully
objective and could never fully divorce himself from his own
subjectivity towards his own theories. When the heliocentric
theory was presented, it was not greeted with open arms. Even
though the heliocentric theory could explain more fully the
celestial movements of the planets, including the phases of
Venus, rather than change, astronomers revamped their old
theories to force them to explain what they could not explain
before. They even created the concept of epicycles to explain
why planets appeared to move backwards and forwards
through the heavens. Oddly enough, this worked even though
it was not true, and it allowed them to remain geocentric in
their theories. This also pleased the Roman Church, whom at
that time in history was theologically against heliocentricity.
So when does the change take place? It happens when
the new theory not only answers all the questions the old
theory could, but also answers all the questions the old theory
could not. At such a point, a crisis is built up and a paradigm
shift takes place in science itself. It is more like a paradigm
jump to a new worldview rather than a smooth logical
transition. Nevertheless, it takes a crisis and much tribulation
of the soul before scientists give up the ghost and make the
jump to a new paradigm (apparently theologians have this
problem also).
Albert Einstein himself, fell into this trap of subjective
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 21 obsessive behavior, and he could not accept the uncertainty
principle2 of quantum physics. Yet, all the formulas and
experiments absolutely verified the validity of the uncertainty
principle. He went to his grave looking for the unified field or
unknown variable to try to explain away the uncertainty

correct; a scientist is to be a passive observer with an open
mind. If God exists, then we should observe what God is
doing and not tell God how to do it. This applies to both
scientists and theologians
The Great Divorce
If we go further back into Western history, we can see
that there was a time when science, religion, and philosophy
were one reality. Pythagoras of Samos (495 BC) was an
Ionian Greek philosopher and
founder of the religious movement
called Pythagoreanism.3 He taught
his followers that numbers had
both a qualitative value as well as
quantitative value. One of his most famous teachings is his
Pythagorean theorem shown above. This formula or theorem
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 22 can be written A2 + B2 = C2. This is, of course, the formula for
finding the length of the hypotenuse of a right angle triangle.
We still use it today in our basic algebra and geometry classes.
This example shows his scientific aspect. However, he had
another side to his science, if I may use this term historically
speaking.
The Pythagorean Decade ba

or Tetraktys is a prime example of what I mean. Numerically
and quantitatively, it was expressed as
1+2+3+4=10. Qualitatively and visually,
it represented the four stages of universal
cosmology.4 From the One or Monad
came the duad or straight line, next came
the three or triad or triangle, and finally the four separated
points or tetrad becoming a solid square. The full meaning of
this symbol was never given out publicly.
The Monad or One is the point of manifestation of our
universe, the spiritual drive behind the physical Big Bang.
From this point, the original homogeneous substance of
existence becomes polarized (or dual) in nature. Through its
heterogeneous separateness and union, it gives birth to the
third. The third lays the foundation for the fourth, and the
fourth gives expression to the physical side of the universe.
Taken as a whole, all ten dots as shown above, are
representative of the noumenal spiritual Matter or Substance.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 23 Together, they give birth to the manifestation of the
phenomenal world of the physical senses.5
Enter Democritus
Prior to the fall of Rome, which began the Dark Ages
and the suppression of free thought, there was another school
of Greek philosopher/scientists who
were not as spiritual as Pythagoras.
They are often classified as the preSocratic philosophers. One such
philosopher was Democritus (460
BC - 370 BC). Democritus was the
co-originator of the belief that all
matter is made up of various imperishable, indivisible
particles, which he called atoma,6 from which we get the
English word atom.7 Many scholars have hailed him as the
father of Western science. I believe this is only partly true. I
would infer that he was the father of Western materialism,
believing that atoms were indivisible particles of matter. Of
course, quantum mechanics challenges this position fully now.
Democritus was also a pioneer of mathematics and
geometry in particular. He observed and created many volume
type formulas for cones and cylinders among others.
Unfortunately, like so many other great Western thinkers, his
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 24 writings did not survive the Middle Ages. The Christian
Church eventually closed down all philosophy academies and
independent schools of learning. The great divorce was then
waxed solid and fixed between science and religion. The Dark
Ages were now present and would not begin to wane until the
Renaissance. This was a sad time for the West.
Enter Rene Descartes
While there are many heroes we could choose from
who stood against the Church in the name of science, there is
none more pivotal than Rene Descartes (1596 –1650). Being a
contemporary of Galileo Galilei (1564 –1642), he knew what
could happen to him if he crossed swords with the Roman
Church. What Rene did was to covertly sneak in his ideas
about physics, through a philosophical writing he called
Meditations. He presented this writing to the Faculty of
Theology of Paris, almost on his knees, and they accepted it.
While this Trojan horse trick worked with the Church,
the Devil wanted his dues to be paid for also. He was paid off
in what is now known philosophically as mind-body-dualism.
This is how Rene pulled it off. He convinced the Church that
the mind, soul, and spirit were not in the domain of science.
The physical world, however, was. The human body, like the
universe, is just a machine. Thus, we can play with a machine,
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 25 test it, measure it, weigh it, and do physics with it.8
The mind, however, was to be under the domain of the

left with a challenge. If the mind is of a different substance
than physical matter, how does it communicate to the human
body, which is made of physical matter? What is the medium
that transfers the force between them?
Descartes could not answer this question. He suggested
that the soul communicated to the body via the pineal gland
located in the center of the brain. However, this did not solve
the problem, and Descartes died of pneumonia before he could
attempt a resolution.
Modern materialist science will argue that there is no
resolution. This is due to the laws of thermal dynamics. These
laws emphatically state that there would always have to be an
exchange of energy between the mind and body. Since there is
no exchange that can be measured, the mind must be material,
albeit of a finer gradient of matter, but nonetheless physical.

From Rene Descartes forward, scientific philosophy
began to form its creed. By the late 19th century, science was
confident that it had discovered all the laws of physics. All
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 26 that was left to do was just apply them for the benefit of
humanity. Then, a prophecy given by Helena Petrovna
Blavatsky, the great theosophist (1831 –1891), rang true. She
said that she would not be understood metaphysically until the
20th century. Her position being that consciousness is the
ultimate foundation of reality, not physical matter.
In the 20th century, quantum physics began to discover
these two things, put in the simplest of terms: 1) atoms are not
solid particles; 2) measurement, or consciousness, causes the
collapse of the electron into a particle from a wave.
Consciousness affects the physical world! Roll over Descartes,
and give the theologians of Paris the news.
Some Conclusions
We have roughly shown the origins of material
dualism as developed by Western culture. In the next chapter,
we will continue this line of thought to show just how deeply
entrenched this became in the Christian Church and how this
affected Western science for centuries. Along with great
advances in materialistic science came much suffering and
ignorance from organized theology.

sMeditations? The
answer is easily found in the very beginnings of the organized
Church, starting with Quintus Septimius Florens Tertullianus,
anglicized as Tertullian (155–222 A.D.). Tertullian, known for
coining the term Trinity in reference to the Christian Godhead,
described it as Three Persons all sharing one substance. In
addition to this, Tertullian was very concerned about the
origins of physical matter. He knew that Greek thinkers (like
Democritus) believed matter to be eternal, thus this would
make physical matter co-equal to God.
Greek thinking and its affects on the early Church
cannot be overestimated. Even Saint Augustine of Hippo
remarked that the Greeks and Egyptians were Christians
before Christ came to give a name to the religion they already
believed.1 Concepts like the Logos are Greek in origin.
Furthermore, even the New Testament was written in Greek.
This may seem strange to the modern mind, but
Tertullian was battling against Paganism and Panpsychism.
Briefly stated, these views asserted that all physical matter
was endowed with mind stuff and that the whole universe was
a living organism. This would have challenged Church
doctrine in many areas.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 29 If matter was eternal and pre-existent (like the Greeks
taught), then it was parallel to God; and this challenged the
absolute transcendence of God over His creation. This was a
problem for the Christian fathers. Moreover, if matter was
created, what was it created out of? The Hebrew account of
creation has no reference in Genesis to account for the
existence and creation of matter explicitly. Therefore, the
ontological status of matter for Christianity is somewhat vague
and ambiguous. Tertullian was perplexed by this theological
problem. Therefore, he decided to resolve it.
Having found no reference for it in any of the
scriptures, Tertullian created the doctrine known as Creatio ex
nihilo, or Creation out of Nothing2. Tertullian used a lot of
circular logic to justify his position, and while this doctrine
was not explicitly stated in the scriptures, he weakly argued
that it was implied. In my opinion, the only thing so far ever
created out of nothing, is this very doctrine of Tertullian.
This doctrine reinforced a more severe body-mind
dualism that orthodox Christianity has never recovered from
intellectually or theologically. This ultimately destroyed
Greek-influenced Christian Idealism and strengthened the

dominates theology even today.
To be fair, it should be mentioned that Tertullian
changed his theological position on other things towards the
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 30 end of his life. He believed that the canonized books of the
Church were not closed, and that God was still giving new
scriptural revelations to His Church. He became of follower of
Montanism3.

combat the inquisitive minds of the Greek philosophers and
theologians. This dogmatic, defensive attack upon free thought
by the Church does not end here, but continues even today.
The early Church fathers did not like open-ended questions
and did not appreciate the depth of the Alexandrian Christian
Church. Instead, they desired truncated compressions of truths
in the form of closed arguments that reinforced their biases.
Perfection is Static and Transcendent
The Greeks had another concept known as the Prime
Mover. The Prime Mover moved the universe without moving
itself. It never changed; it was perfect and transcendent. It was
not a creator; it was the architect of the creation. This was the
image
of
Greek
perfection:
static,
changeless,
and
transcendent. As time went by, even the Greek schools of
thought became corrupted, and these doctrines were twisted
and misused for political ends.
Simply put, if perfection is changeless, then the more
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 31 something changes, the more imperfect it is. For example, a
woma

pregnancy and giving birth. Therefore, a male is more
perfected –more like the Prime Mover or God –than the
female. This concept opened the door for this Greek influence
on two later Church fathers: Saint Jerome (347-420) and Saint
Augustine of Hippo (354-430).
Both Church fathers were so inundated with this Greek
definition of perfection, they were fully convinced that at the
resurrection of the dead, at the end of the ages, no female
could go directly to heaven. Both church fathers speculated
that at the resurrection of the dead, all women must be
changed in some way to be more like males, in order to enter
heaven. This is the dark side of mind-body dualism. It justifies
sexism, racism, and disrespect to Earth as a living being
(allowing for the dismissal of responsible environmentalism).
First: No Eternal Matter; Now: No Eternal Spirit
The Church was not ultimately satisfied with just the
elimination of physical matter from eternity or with the
subjugation of women due to the static view of Greek
perfection. It had another problem. Was a human being a
spirit, a soul, and a body? If a human being was a tripartite
being, then what is the spirit? What if it is Divine in nature?
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 32 Then how do we justify theChur

Why would people need the Church to find God if God is
already within them?
At the Eighth Ecumenical Council: Constantinople IV,
in 869 A.D., it was decided that a human being had only a soul
and a body.4 A human being did not have a spirit. Even though
the Western scriptures taught that humanity had a spirit, a
soul, and a body, the Church disagreed with it. After all, the
body of Church fathers decided what the scriptures mean for
the body of followers.
This doctrine of no human spirit created what

nunintended result. This doctrine allowed for
the development of an even stronger materialistic view of the
world. The bastard child of the Church itself is materialistic
atheism, along with the imitation Church currently known as
the corporation. However, this is not the worst of it. The
whole
Christian
Orthodox
Church,
Roman
Catholic,
Protestant, and Eastern Orthodox closed the door on inner
spiritual development forever. Since there were no occult
powers for humanity to develop, and no Divine spirit in a
human being to be enlightened to, and the material world was
for science to explore, the whole Church became an
unconscious spiritual materialist. They became a static, dead
form of ritual without transcendent purpose or aims. Except
for going to Church on Sundays, atheists, materialists, and
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 33 Christians all lived in the same world of physics and
unconsciously shared a whole plethora of similar values5.

extreme exclusiveness reared its ugly intolerant head again
and again: in the Crusades to the Holy Land, the Spanish
Inquisition, the destruction of the Knights Templar, the
suppression of science and philosophy, and the demonizing of
any religion that taught the divinity of humanity or another
way of salvation.6
The Materialist Union of Science and Religion
By the end of the 19th century, the Church and science
were walking hand-in-hand down the materialistic highway of
life, both blissfully unconscious of each other. Matter was
made up of particles called atoms, and Newtonian physics
answered all possible questions. God was transcendent beyond
physical matter and could not be measured or disproved. Then
suddenly, without warning, the veil of Isis was slightly lifted,
and the crack between a post-Newtonian physics and Christian
dualism began.
This rent between Christian dualism and physics
begins with the discovery of quantum mechanics. Names like
Einstein,
Bohr,
Heisenberg,
Schrödinger,
Plank,
von
Neumann, and Wheeler become the new apostles of a physics
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 34 that goes beyond Newtonian materialism and Christian mindbody dualism. It is from here that our modern story can finally
begin. However, we first have to discuss the philosophical
views of metaphysics in the next chapter. Then our
foundations will have been laid.

Some attempt by the Protestants in the 20th century to regain the tripartite

a grave theological error. Of course, most of these movements were
considered heresies or heterodox by many mainstream orthodox churches.
The Charismatic movement was allowed to run its course in many Catholic
Churches, perhaps just to monitor the membership.

To the average orthodox Christian, I have no complaint and I salute the
good works that they do. They are only the innocent victims of their own
misguided theologians who are themselves the victims of tradition and
anachronism.

4. Why Metaphysics?
I will always be grateful to my philosophy professors
at the University of Detroit Mercy for stressing the
fundamental importance of metaphysics. Metaphysics is a
subdivision of philosophy, just like ethics, epistemology,
political science, economics, or anthropology. Simply stated,
metaphysics is our theory of reality.1 In other words, what is
the basis of reality? How did the universe get here? Is the
universe real? Are we all asleep in some gigantic objective
dream? Do atoms exist? What is our theory of origins?
Unless one is a trained philosopher, theologian, or

and ethics. Yet, trained or untrained, every one of us performs
this philosophical calculus everyday. Our personal theory of
anthropology will determine what we say a person is; and
what we say a person is, will determine our ethical value and
treatment of that person. All this is determined by our theory
of origins, or metaphysics, whether we know it or not.
For example, if I believe that the universe is one big
series of mindless, purposeless, materialistic events, then I will
see humanity as an accident having little worth or purpose. I
might even see humanity as a virus attacking the planet and
support holding back treatment of illnesses in third-world
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 36 countries, thereby allowing diseases to remove them so I can
survive. I might see abortion as a necessary survival tool to
control over-population.
On the other hand, if my metaphysics dictated that an
all-powerful God created the universe and oversees what is
happening, then my anthropology and ethics would be very
different than the materialist. I might see a human being as a
sacred creature made in the image of the creator. Thus, I might
be against abortion and the unkind treatment of the poor in
third world nations.
These two extreme examples are over-simplified to
make this point: we all suffer from a philosophical
determinism because of our theories of metaphysics. Whether
we get our metaphysics from our priest, pastor, professor, the
Bible, the Quran, the Torah, the Hindu Puranas, the Buddhist
Sutras, a book on science, television, the university, or a
dream, we are all philosophically determined. Thus, your
metaphysics is your worldview, your paradigm.
Monism versus Dualism
The famous Christian theologian C. S. Lewis once
remarked that materialism was for boys, and that the only real
choices for intellectual adults was between dualism and
monism. He himself, while fully rejecting monism, fully
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 37 understood its significance. Even though there are other
metaphysical paradigms such as pluralism, I believe C. S.
Lewis was partly right in his philosophical assessment. I have
also limited the discussion to just three views as shown in
graphic 4-1 below.
Graphic 4-1: Monism and Dualism
Under the Monistic Idealism2 heading, I have
illustrated what is most commonly known as Eastern
philosophy or religion. In this scenario, God is both
transcendent and immanent within the creation or universe.
There are three subdivisions to this view. They are:
(1) God is transcendent only, and all of creation does not
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 38 really exist; it is less than an illusion, it has never
happened. Therefore, God is not present in the illusion of
the universe since it does not exist. This illusion is
represented with the dashed circle labeled nothing. All that
is, which is God, is one.
(2) God is both transcendent and immanent within the
creation. The creation is a qualified illusion and appears to
be independent of the observer, but it is not. It is

is, is one.
(3) Both God transcendent and immanent are equally both
real, but only the transcendent Godhead has eternal
duration. Universes and heavens may last for trillions of
years, yet they will all end, only to be born again after an
equally long period of rest. All that is, is ultimately one.
In all three general views of Monistic Idealism,
consciousness is the metaphysical foundation of reality. Mind
and matter are the results of consciousness. Consciousness
underlies all of reality and is in every atom on up to the
Godhead. C. S. Lewis considered this view to be a strong
c

e
ng
et

i
s
t
i
a
ni
t
y
’
sDualistic Idealism. There are many
minds, but only one consciousness, which all minds share.
In Dualistic Idealism,3 God is transcendent and
separate from His creation. God is not in the creation but
stands outside of it. Built upon a limited understanding of

ssystem of metaphysics along
with Judaism and Islam. Thus, the creation, being separate
from God, is in a fallen state due to sin and corruption and
needs a Savior to reconnect and redeem it back to God. Thus,
all the legends of the fall of humanity have metaphysical
justification with this paradigm. God then is only immanent in
His Church, which leads to strong exclusivity between
believers and nonbelievers.
In graphic 4-1, the ladder between the Creation and
God transcendent represents the Savior who reconnects them
back to God. This Savior is comparable to Moses, Jesus, and
Mohammed. There are needs for Saviors or Avatars in the
Monistic Idealism system of philosophy also, however, they
come to rule over a humanity of who they themselves actually
are. Humanity is just a minor spark of the Divine Flame itself.
In Dualistic Idealism, a human being is a created being who
may gain immortality. Whereas, in Monistic Idealism,

Finally, I have presented Monistic Materialism with
only one circle labeled the Creation. For the materialist, there
is nothing beyond the physical world. Matter existed first.
When it became sophisticated enough, life evolved; and later
on, consciousness emerged as a by-product of matter and life.
Even though there are materialistic pluralists who follow the
ways of Aristotle, science is proving Aristotle wrong.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 40 Quantum physics had begun to demonstrate a substratum in
the physical universe where subatomic particles become nonlocal in a void of non-local unity. Yes, materialistic science is
moving towards a monistic view of reality. Books like The
Tao of Physics by Fritjof Capra are representative of this view.
In fact, at the Big Bang, the whole universe was compacted
and entangled in a primal atom smaller than a green pea!4
In my opinion, modern science is proving monism to
be true and dualism to be false. Monism is proving to be

combined—both of which Sigmund Freud pointed out long
ago as being significant deathblows to Western theology as
well as the Western psyche.
Which monism will it be? Will it be the materialistic
monism that looks at consciousness as epiphenomenal?
Alternatively, will it be a monistic idealism, which sees
consciousness as the foundation of all reality? As we now
explore the implications of quantum physics, I believe the
contrast between these views will emerge with only one left
standing.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 41 Some Conclusions
Having now finished our orientation historically and
philosophically, in the next chapter we begin to look at the key
aspects of quantum physics. We will begin to look at the
particle and wave theories of light and some of the inferred
consequences of the physics experiments themselves.

5. Waves + Particles = Wavicles
If we were to take an introductory biology or chemistry
course in high school or college, we would be confronted with
the particle –or corpuscular theories of light and the particle
theory of the elements. The table of elements is presented to
us in a graphic or chart in our textbook, and on the wall of the
classroom itself. Being babes in the woods, we accept these
premises as being true. However, if we continue in our studies
beyond the introductory level, we soon discover that on the
subatomic level of reality, these premises are not true.

Thomas Young1 (1773–1829) and his famous double slit
experiment2. From Democritus to the time of Newton, it was
believed that everything, including light, was made up of tiny
atomic particles. Young did not have the coherent light3 of a
laser, like modern-day scientists do. Young believed that by
shining light through a double slit, you should get two light
images on the wall. If light were made up of particles, it would
be like dumping particles of sand from a bucket through two
slots and getting two piles of sand (see graphic 5-1 on the next
page). In the figure noted, notice how the sand creates two
piles because of being strained through two openings. If light
is made of atoms, and atoms are little particles like sand, then
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 43 they should also trace a neat outline of two slots on a receptive
screen.
Figure 5-1: Sand particles passing through two slots.
However, when Young did finally shine his light
through the two slots, he did not get two silhouettes of light on
the receptor screen.4 Instead, he got a wave pattern (see figure
5-2). This result was unexpected and baffling to Young. Many
years past until this experiment was redone with modern
instruments. This is where the anomalies begin to unwind
about the subatomic world, and where quantum physics begins
to form.
In figure 5-2, we have depicted a light source, shining
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 44 through two slots, emanating waves, similar to the ripples
created on a lake surface from a plummeting pebble. After
passing through the slots, these waves interfere with each
other, creating a series of crested impacts against a receptive
screen. This is similar to waves in the ocean hitting a sea wall.
Figure 5-2: Intersecting waves of light interfering.
In the more modern experiments, by shining a
coherent laser light source through a single square slit, one
should see a single square outline on the wall or photographic
plate. If light is made up of particles, then this is just what we
should get. This is exactly what happened; so far so good (see
graphic 5-3).
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 45 All the little photons or particles of light behaved just
like stones or pebbles being fired from a canon through a
square slot. The result was one line of photons, within the
parameter of the square slot impacting on a receptor plate.
This was, of course, to be expected; therefore, we can now
proceed to the next level of the experiment.
Graphic 5-3: Single slit shows single impact of photons.
It was believed, almost like a tautology, that two slots
should produce the same results. Two slots should allow for
the photons to create two lines of impact on the photographic
receptor plate. It must be noted, that in the modern version of
these double slot experiments, only one photon at a time was
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 46 fired from the special laser gun.5 This firing of one photon at a
time has to insure that there will be no interference with the
trajectory of the photon, as it travels through one of the two
available slots in the second iteration of this experiment (see
graphic 5-4).
Graphic 5-4: The Double Slit Wave Phenomena.
The result was baffling (to say the least) for our
modern-day physicists. The receptor plate showed a wave
interference pattern and not the two bands of photon impacts
as expected. Since, in the modern version of these
experiments, only one photon at a time was fired at the two
slots, how could this wave pattern emerge if photons were
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 47 solid particles? How could these light particles become waves,
interfere with themselves, and travel only through one of the
two slots, one at a time? This is where the quantum weirdness
begins and where the Veil of Isis is slowly lifting. Is light a
wave, is it a particle, or is it both at the same time: a wavicle?
Scientists were stunned at this and decided to set up a
camera/instrument to measure/observe which slot each particle
of light actually goes through (see figure 5-5).
Figure 5-5: The photon acts as if it is being watched.
The result was a complete shock. When the camera
was on and watching, the photon particles behaved like
particles and created only two patterns on the receptor plate,
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 48 just like the sand particles do when being strained between
two slots. How could a photon particle be aware it was being
watched?6 When the camera was switched off, the wave
pattern returned (figure 5-6).
Figure 5-6: Photon particle acts like a wave with camera off.
This is not even the weirdest part either. It was later
discovered, that if you did not turn the camera on until after
the photon wave had already passed through the two slots, it
would immediately behave like a particle, going back in time,
and recreate its whole trajectory and path! This is sometimes
called backward causality or the quantum eraser. However, we
will talk about this aspect a little more later on.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 49 Lifting the Veil of Isis
What is implied here, metaphysically speaking, on a
subatomic level, is that observation, the act of measuring,
affects the outcome of the experiment itself. Many arguments
have been made over the explanation as to why this is so.
What are the true mechanics involved with this phenomenon?

metaphysically, will influence his/her explanation of the
mechanics involved.
A materialist scientist will not want to see the
consciousness of the observer affecting the experiment. He
wants to believe in an objective universe that exists
independently, whether it is being observed/measured or not.
Idealist7 scientists will consider how the consciousness of the
observer might be influencing reality, if not actually creating
it.
Today, many scientists have come out of the closet and
are not afraid to express an idealist point of view. Many
scientists, including John von Neumann, John Wheeler, and
Amit Goswami, to name just a few, are not afraid to express
their idealistic ideas about physics. Goswami himself names
his physics Monistic Idealism.8 He has authored many books
and videos on the subject. Many other scientists are afraid to
express their views, fearing losing tenure at the university or
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 50 being ostracized by the scientific community still so heavily
dominated by naive materialism and prejudice.
We shall continue this discussion throughout this
work, as the data to support it is shown to the reader. For now,
let us say that from my perspective, there is only one universal
consciousness. It has many minds, and it is the foundation of
all reality. The moon does not disappear when I am not
looking at it, because the one universal consciousness is
always looking at everything as it really is. This is closer to
Kashmir Shaivism, an Indian philosophy, and one that I have
perceived to be the most correct in shedding light on the
findings of modern physics.9 It must be understood, that from
the Shaivism point of view, the universe is being recreated
billions of times a second, by the one consciousness, giving
the illusion of continuity and the ability for constant change.
Finally, the implications of quantum physics are astounding to
the open-minded and dread to the closed-minded materialist.

photons, all have a wave/particle component.

Coherent light are light waves that are "in phase" with one another. This
is similar to a chorus line of dancers moving in perfect synchronism with
each other. Young did not have access to such a light source since lasers
had not been invented because quantum mechanics had not been
discovered yet.

Idealism, in terms of metaphysics, is the philosophical view that the mind
or spirit constitutes the fundamental reality. It has taken several distinct but
related forms. Among them are Objective and Subjective idealism.
Objective idealism accepts common sense Realism (the view that material
objects exist) but rejects Naturalism (according to which the mind and
spiritual values have emerged from material things), whereas subjective
idealism denies that material objects exist independently of human
perception and thus stands opposed to both realism and naturalism.

6. Niels Bohr, Lord of the Quantum Rings
The double slit experiment, as shown in the last
chapter, is fundamental to quantum mechanics and quantum
theory. In the last century, it has been discovered that photons,
electrons, neutrons, protons, quarks, atoms, and certain carbon
molecules all display a wave particle behavior.1 Other
particles have been discovered besides these, which lead to a
new classification of subatomic particles into two main
categories, known as fermions and bosons.2 Fermions are
matter-carrying particles and bosons are considered forcecarrying particles. Electrons, neutrons, protons, and quarks are
classified as fermions. Photons and other particles are
classified as bosons. Actually, we should use the term virtual
particles, since they appear and disappear randomly. However,
we are getting ahead of ourselves here. Let us back up in time
to get a better perspective.
We must start with the basic structure of the atom, as it
was thought of in the early twentieth century. In addition,
energy was seen to be continuous, rather than being in discrete
packets or quanta. Scientists since 1750 had been heating
elements/substances and shining their light through prisms to
display the spectral colors.3 It was soon discovered that each
element gave off its own colors (Figure 6-1). Later, they
discovered that when heating solids, the colors told them the
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 53 gradient temperature. This allowed them to compute the heat
of the sun and other distant objects. Still, there were blank
spots in the spectral analysis, which could not be explained.
These blank, dark areas were called spectral lines. There were
also conflicts with the old wave theory of light that could not
match the test results done with black bodies.4
Figure 6-1: Shows the hydrogen gas analysis.
Black bodies absorb all the light and give off a
radiation as a result. Without being too technical, there was a
conflict with the predicted relationship between the intensity
of radiation and the frequency of radiation. A physicist named
Max Planck solved this conflict with a new formula, in
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 54 December of 1900. This would be the first of several
discoveries that would make Planck one of the founders of

in history, was to show that energy came in discrete packets of
energy and not as a constant flow.5 This concept was to allow
Niels Bohr to conceive a new model of the atom and Einstein
to explain the relationship of photons to black bodies. Einstein
proposed that black bodies give off packets of energy when an
electron interacts with a photon. Bohr would use this
proposition later to solve the atomic structure problem and the
spectral line problem since they are directly related.
The Structure of the Atom
Today, any high school student can tell you that an
atom has a nucleus, made up of protons and neutrons,
surrounded by electrons. This was not so obvious in the early
twentieth century. Earnest Rutherford, in 1912, presented his
model of the atom, sometimes called the solar system model.
Rutherford himself was a world-leading scientist at the time,
having won a noble prize in 1908 in chemistry. He proposed
that the hydrogen atom, which contains a simple nucleus and
one electron, was similar to the solar system. The atom simply
orbited the nucleus.

correct. The electron of the atom would collide into the
nucleus within a thousandth of a billionth of a second and the
atom would collapse. The universe would disappear! Of
course, this analysis was based upon Newtonian classical
physics, since quantum physics was not yet discovered.

packets or discrete amounts. By combining aspects of these
two theories, he had an insight, which forever named him the
father of quantum mechanics.
In the hydrogen atom, there is only one proton and one
electron. Yet, the spectral result for hydrogen gas showed four
discrete spectral lines in emission and absorption, and they
were spaced apart from each other in discrete mathematical
packets. The answer for Bohr was this: when the electron
absorbed the energy from a passing photon, it jumped to a new
orbit further out from the nucleus, similar to the photoelectric
effect on electrons of black bodies (Figure 6-2). When the
electron gave off energy, it jumped back to an orbit closer to
the nucleus of the atom. In each case, the atom could only

of why energy had to come in discrete amounts. This was the
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 56 literal quantum leap of the electron. Each time it jumped, it
gave off light—the spectral light!6
Figure 6-2: Shows the electron jump between orbits.
Now, at this time, Bohr only considered the electron to
still be a particle. However, the electron did not travel from
one orbit to another. No, the quantum world is much stranger
than that. The electron disappeared and reappeared at each
discrete orbit of the atom. This is the quantum leap. However,
where was the atom between jumps? Could this be known?
The Uncertainty of Heisenberg and the Dismay of Einstein
In 1927, Warner Heisenberg published his famous
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 57 uncertainty principle.7 Simply stated, the more precisely the
position of an electron is determined, the less precisely the
momentum is known in this instant, and vice versa. If we
measure/observe where the electron is, we cannot know its
momentum with certainty. If we measure its momentum, then
we do not know its position. We can never know these two
factors at the same time with certainty.
Heisenberg was not saying this because we lacked the
tools or the knowledge to solve this measurement problem.
No, he meant that this really is the nature of the subatomic
quantum world! When Einstein heard this, he nearly went
berserk. How could the subatomic world be a world of chance,
while the larger classical world of molecules, planets, and
galaxies was predictable in all sorts of measurements?
Einstein could not wrap his head around this, thus, his famous

philosophy known as Logical Positivism was sweeping
Austria and Germany. It was a call to only speak about what
could be verified by the senses and observation.9 This
philosophy had a strong influence upon the scientific
community in Europe at the time.
Therefore, to try to even speak about where the
hydrogen atom is between jumps is absurd, since it cannot be
known or observed. Thus, it has no sense data to confirm it;
therefore, it is nonsensical to speak of it. This type of
influence upon the quantum fathers gave birth to a type of
interpretation of quantum physics known as the Copenhagen
interpretation.10 This Copenhagen interpretation became the
standard orthodox interpretation of quantum physics for many
years. However, there are many more divergent views in
contemporary physics today concerning quantum physics. In
the next chapter, we will discuss where the atom is between
jumps, in spite of the Copenhagen interpretation and because
of it.

Because of the philosophical and scientific background
discussed in the last chapter, we are now in a position to
discuss
the famous
wave function
formula of Erin
Schrödinger. Niels Bohr predicted that the hydrogen electron
could only appear in one orbit at a time around the nucleus of
a hydrogen atom, and then disappear, only to reappear at the
next, fixed, numerically discrete orbit. Where was it between
orbits? Erin Schrödinger proposed a mathematical solution to
this question, which is known today as his wave function
equation.1 This is probably the most important equation in
quantum mechanics.
Max Planck, Niels Bohr, Einstein, Heisenberg, and a
few others had contributed much collectively to the
understanding of quantum mechanics. Einstein established
light as a constant in the macro world. However, Max

for a descriptive representation of the mechanical propagation
of the wave function of an electron or any other quantum
object. In other words, when the electron is in-between orbits
during its wave function, can we mathematically describe its

other words, we can calculate, most likely, where the electron
is going to be. In this sense, this wave function is a
mathematical tool and a representation only, and is not the
actual wave itself. It is a mathematical distribution of the wave
function.
When an electron is in superposition, it is everywhere,
it is nowhere, and it is in every place at once. Thus, the wave
function equation was developed to figure out the most likely
place the electron wave is propagating to. Today, some
electron cloud photographs have been taken, showing the
electron to be in more than one place at the same time.
Ukrainian researchers at the Kharkov Institute for Physics and
Technology in Kharkov, Ukraine, have taken this picture3
showing various arrangements of the clouds of electrons
surrounding a carbon atom (Figure 7-1).
Figure 7-1: Two photos of carbon electron clouds surrounding the
atom.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 62 According to modern day physicists, the actual wave
of a subatomic particle is very real. In fact, many scientists
now say that the wave function represents, not only a
mathematical abstraction, but also an independent true reality4.
In truth, no scientist really knows what the wave function truly
is, but the math still works anyway. When the atom or particle
is in superposition, it is in a universal quantum energy field,
where the entire universe is connected by wave functions. In

Quantum Energy Fields and the Ether
What is the nature of the quantum energy field?
Whenever two or more waves interact, they are said to be in
superposition and entangled. They are actually waves in a
quantum field of energy. The quantum field is different than
the larger world of macro objects, which range from
molecules on up to galaxies. The quantum field has its own set
of rules. However, there have been experiments done with

Zeilinger6 and associates. These bucky balls, when sent thru a
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 63 grated membrane, created a wave pattern similar to the
photons in the double slit experiment. These carbon molecules
actually demonstrated a quantum-like wave function. What is
significant here is that physicists consider these carbon
molecules to be macro objects, not quantum objects. These
bucky ball molecules consist of 60 or 70 carbon atoms.
It appears that in the quantum field, time does not
necessarily progress in a forward manner. In addition, space is
nonlocal. In quantum nonlocality, waves can affect each other
instantly, no matter how far apart they are from each other.
Therefore, when a particle goes into superposition, it is now a
nonlocal wave phenomenon until it re-collapses back into a
particle. Therefore, in the quantum field, everything is
connected or entangled.7

discussion about quantum mechanics.
What is this quantum energy field? It has many names.
Most scientists call it the zero-point energy field. Other nonphysicists and researchers, such as Gregg Braden8, call it the

archer and journalist Lynne McTaggart
titled her well-documented book on this subject, The Field:
The Quest for the Secret Force of the Universe.9 Yet, others
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 64 refer to it as the lost ether of history that science rejected long
ago as being non-existent.10
Oddly enough, the great genius himself, Albert
Einstein, did not reject the concept of the etheric field
completely. In a lecture given on May 5, 1920, at the
University of Leyden, titled Ether and the Theory of
Relativity, Einstein stated:
According to the general theory of relativity, space
without ether is unthinkable; for in such space there
not only would be no propagation of light, but also no
possibility of existence for standards of space and time
(measuring-rods and clocks), nor therefore any spacetime intervals in the physical sense.11
The zero-point field is also referred to as the Casimir
Force.12 The space between all atomic particles and all matter
is not exactly empty space, even though it is called the
quantum vacuum. In the quantum vacuum/field, atomic
particles appear, disappear, and reappear creating fluctuations
in the quantum vacuum. These fluctuations are balanced. A
photon can degrade into both a positron and an electron. This
is okay since they both cancel each other out and add up to
zero. This gives the quantum vacuum a zero-point energy
balance without disturbing the macro world very much. In
addition, since no particle can ever be brought to an exact state
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 65 of zero movement, there are perpetual fluctuations within the
field.
The Dutch physicist, Hendrik Casimir, first theorized
them to exist in 1948.13 In 1996, these quantum fluctuations
were experimentally measured.14 Two very small, uncharged
plates were put parallel to each other in a vacuum with very
little spacing between them (Figure 7-2). The fluctuations in
the quantum vacuum drove the plates together! Many fields
such as nanotechnology have been the result of this unique
discovery. It has also been discovered by the Russians that the
Casimir effect can repel as well as attract many types of
metals.
Figure 7-2: The quantum imbalance drives the plates together.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 66 How Much Energy is in the Zero-Point Field?
Based upon a whole host of experiments, physicists
have calculated just how much energy might be in the zeropoint energy field. In other words, how much energy is in this
quantum vacuum? Estimates do vary between physicists to
some degree, but they do all estimate large numbers. If the
nucleus of a hydrogen atom were as large as a soccer ball, its
electron would be the size of a green pea orbiting the nucleus
from twenty miles away. This gives you an idea of just how
much space is in an atom (or for that matter, the entire
universe itself).

,scientist
William A Tiller of Stanford University made some energy
estimates about the quantum vacuum. I was so shocked at
what he said that I had to play the movie over several times to
make sure I was hearing him correctly. In essence, this is what
he said:

The empty space in a hydrogen atom contains 10-23
cubic centimeters.

This space contains one trillion times the energy that is
equal to all the stars and galaxies in a 20 billion lightyear radius.

The whole Quantum Vacuum itself contains 1094
grams of energy per cubic centimeter.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 67 
This is equal to several trillion times all the energy that
is in the known universe.
These figures are beyond human comprehension and
are overwhelming. Nevertheless, also something else is
unique. Tiller goes on to say that this quantum energy is
amendable to human intention. In other words, it responds to
human intention! Tiller further states that if all human
consciousness can do is collapse one atom, then that is still
saying a lot from an energy perspective.
What makes the zero-point energy in the quantum
vacuum so unique is that it does not suffer from entropy. In
the macro physical world as we know it, a pendulum will
eventually spend its energy and slow down over time to a dead
stop. If you could build a pendulum to run from the energy
provided by the zero-point energy field, it would never stop.
The energy in the quantum vacuum does not entropy and it is
everywhere! Space travel to other galaxies may be possible if
this energy source can be harnessed by humanity. Ultimately,
we must ask ourselves, how does the zero-point field relate to
the macro world of classical Newtonian physics?
Is Unification Possible?
Einstein spent his life looking for the unified field that
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 68 would unite all four forces of physics and capture the
wayward quantum physics back into the fold of classical
physics. The four forces are gravity, magnetism, strong and
weak nuclear. In the quantum world, quantum gravity has not
been found. In addition, the gravity in the macro world is too
weak, according to physicists. Einstein told us what gravity
does, but not what it is. However, the English mathematical
physicist Roger Penrose has come up with a formula that may
very well describe quantum gravity. He may very well have
found the very missing variable that Einstein could not.
The astrophysicist, Bernard Haisch, in his book The
God Theory presents a compelling argument that light itself is
the unifying factor. Haisch and his partner, physicist Alfonso
Rueda, came up with the theory that the zero-point field was
the cause of the inertia in matter. While under a grant given to
them by NASA, they were able to perfect the mathematics.
They published two papers that confirmed that inertia of
matter could be traced back to the zero-point field. The
scientific community has not greeted this finding with open
arms. It challenges too many scientific dogmas and postulates
about gravity, mass, and the zero-point field.
Haisch goes on further in his book and points out that
from the point of view of light, all space would shrink to a
point, and all time would collapse to an instant, based on

Haisch, a form of light is the force within the zero-point field
that sustains the world. If correct, it would explain much of the
phenomena in the quantum world and perhaps unify the two
sides of physics: the quantum and the classical.
A similar but different concept, made popular by the
new age researcher David Wilcock,16 is the theory of Dewey
Larson.17 Larson called his proposal the Reciprocal System of
Physical Theory. In his theory, motion was the foundation of
all reality. Space and time are two aspects of motion. All three
are needed for reality to exist. There is also a reciprocal
relationship between space and time. Like two sides of one
coin, we have 3D coordinate space with linear clock time (one
dimensional time), and on the other side, we have 3D
coordinate time and linear space (non locality). This very
much sounds like a good description of both quantum and
classical worlds.
Other attempts to unify physics have taken the form of
string theory, which encompasses at least ten dimensions to
make the math work. So far, no one has solved the issue of
uniting both levels of physics. At the time of this writing, the
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 70 search continues for the Holy Grail of physics, which may
only exist in the Holy Grail of consciousness.

8. The Quantum Eraser Phenomenon
Einstein once said, "...for us physicists believe the
separation between past, present, and future is only an illusion,
although a convincing one." This is an interesting quote about
the macro world of physics, but what about the micro quantum
world of physics? Theoretical physicists, like John Archibald
Wheeler (July 9, 1911 –April 13, 2008), had some definite
ideas about time and the zero-point field. In 1945, Wheeler
devised a thought experiment that would show that time past,
future, and present is quite different in the quantum field from
our everyday experience. In 1986, the ability to technically
perform this experiment emerged, and it was completed
successfully.1 Whe

e8-1). It was based on a
variation of the double slit experiment using lasers, halfsilvered mirrors (M1, M2), detectors (D1, D2), and fullsilvered mirrors (A, B). In the Figure 8-1, a laser burst
encounters M1 and splits into one or two directions,
unobserved, like the double slit experiment. Next, it reflects
off mirrors A or B, still unobserved. As the particle crosses
over point P, it is detected as a particle by either D1 or D2,
which tells us which path the photon took as a particle
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 73 expression of light.
Figure 8-1: Without the second half-silvered mirror.
Figure 8-2 is the same as Figure 8-1, except that we
add the second, half-silvered mirror (M2). M2 allows the split
beam to now interfere with itself at point P, thereby creating a
constructive interference wave pattern, always detected by D2.
This shows that the split beam is always traveling both paths,
or there would not be interference with M2. This displays the
wave property of the photon. Remember: it can be either one.
It depends upon the choice of the experimenter whether to use
M2 or not. This choice decides whether the path of the photon
is a wave traveling both paths or a particle traveling only one
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 74 of two possible paths.
Now here is where it gets interesting. What would
happen if we delayed our choice about using M2? The laser
would split at M1, reflect off mirrors A or B as potential
particle, and would be ready to collapse into a particle at point
P and be detected by D1 or D2, telling us what path it took.
However, if at the last nanosecond we insert M2, the particle
instantly becomes a wave and changes its whole trajectory
from the laser to the detector instantly! It would have had to
travel both paths to be a wave that interferes with itself. This is
called backward causality or the quantum eraser.
Figure 8-2:D2 always detects a wave when M2 is inserted.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 75 The delayed choice of the experimenter causes the
singular particle path to become a double path or wave, being
reflected at both mirrors A and B. One solution to this is that
the photon is always a wave in superposition until detected or
observed. Even still, the choice of the experimenter still
determines the photonic path taken and the modality of light
expressed, wave or particle; and the choice can be delayed.
Thus, backward causality happens at the quantum level
instantly, faster than light. Space is nonlocal and time is not
linear.
Classical World Implications
Since macro-systems in the classical world are made
up of subatomic quantum systems, what are the effects of the
quantum world upon the classical, in regards to causality? Or
more succinctly, what if the zero-point field, which consists of
what I like to call three-dimensional (3D) time and onedimensional (1D) space, coordinates coherent time space
events? In 3D time, past, present, and future are all present at
once. Space is nonlocal and 1D. At the deepest level of the
zero-point field may exist what has been called scalar waves.3
These waves are beyond the laws of electromagnetic waves,
are amendable, and respond to coherence and consciousness.
They also travel faster than light.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 76 Considering all this, what is implied by the delayed
choice experiment is that, perhaps, future causes are
contributing to present day effects. In addition, by being in the
present moment, it may be possible to change the past.4 This
may actually be the explanation behind spontaneous healing.
Spontaneous healing may be the erasing of the original cause
of the disease to begin with.5
When a laser emits one photon toward a beam splitter,
it becomes two twin entities, which are tied together in the
quantum world. This is called entanglement.6 No matter how
far apart they are from each other, if one is affected, the other
one instantly is affected, faster than light speed. Einstein did

change accordingly, faster than what light speed could account
for. This is because the twin photons are entangled and
coherent. At the Big Bang, everything that is, was entangled
and compressed into a point smaller than a green pea.9 From
the point of view of the quantum field, everything is still
entangled.

As

hypothesis,
how
would
entanglement,
superposition, coherence, wave functions, backward causality,
and the zero-point field that contains them look as twin events
in the classical world? What kind of events would qualify as
reflections of this kind of quantum phenomenon generated
from the field? Like splitting a laser beam and getting two
entangled photons, could a singular time potential event split
into two entangled space-time realities? What qualities might
it have? Let us consider this possible list:

The events must be synchronized in and beyond time.

The events must be coherent to each other and resonate
measurable comparisons: names, relationships, dates,
etc.

The events should be entangled in the quantum world,
and that entanglement should be reflected as two
collapses of related events that have correlated
meaning.

From a delayed choice perspective, each event could
have been the cause of the other, excluding linear time
frames.

The zero-point field would be the best explanation of
such paired events.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 78 Two events I believe that fit these criteria are the twin
assignations of John F. Kennedy and Abraham Lincoln. It may
not seem obvious at first, but the list compiled below is
beyond random chance mathematically. Lincoln also dreamed
of his own assassination one week before it actually happened.
So here are the entangled space-time items listed below.
Notice the harmonic of 100 years between the events, as well
as the inversion of the names of key people and relationships:
1a. Abraham Lincoln was elected to Congress in 1846.
1b. John F. Kennedy was elected to Congress in 1946.
2a. Abraham Lincoln was elected President in 1860.
2b. John F. Kennedy was elected President in 1960.

In the classical world, these two events are experienced
with Lincoln being assassinated one hundred years before
John F. Kennedy. From the quantum field, both assassinations
happened at the same time. In fact, everything happens all at
the same time in the zero-point field. Events only take on
meaning and distance when we experience them in our

From a quantum point of view, these two events are
entangled, synchronized, and coherently reflective of each
other. What it leaves us asking as a possible hypothesis is:
which event caused the other to collapse? Did the
assassination of Kennedy cause the assassination of Lincoln in
a backward causality scenario? Can we even ask such a
question?
My point here is not to prove the quantum relationship
between these two assassinations, but to use it as a thought
experiment that promotes thinking. How many times a day do
we all encounter synchronistic events? You begin humming a
song that has not been on the radio in over twenty years. You
get in your car, turn on the radio, and there it is coming
through your car speaker system. Are these events entangled?
I believe they are. What do you think? Just because you do not
know how to reproduce them in a laboratory does not mean
they did not happen. Currently, we do not really know how to
test for these types of phenomena using the current scientific
methods and equipment.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 81 Backwards Causality and Theology
What might be the ramifications of theology, both East
and West, in regards to quantum backwards causality? In the
East, the laws of karma would simply be transcended. The law
of karma, simply stated, is that you reap what you sow. This is

of Christ might also take on another dimension, affected by
this quantum eraser. Helena Petrovna Blavatsky, in her two
great works, The Secret Doctrine10 and Isis Unveiled,11 was
very critical of this Christian doctrine and for very good
philosophical reasons. She argued that if someone murdered a
person, and then was forgiven through the vicarious
atonement, the only way it would make sense is that all of
history would have to be changed. In other words, the pain
that was created through such an act to the family of the
murdered victim, to the parents of the murderer, and countless
other ramifications from such an act would have to be erased
from history, not to mention the restoration of the victim back
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 82 to life as if nothing ever happened.
This is a very good argument and she had many more
besides this one. However, if the past can be erased as if it
never happened, this potentially sheds new light on the whole
argument. Perhaps the atonement is a symbol for us as
individuals to know that we can change our past if we change
our habits. If we learn to focus our consciousness, become
mentally and emotionally coherent, we can effect our past
from the very present. Then from the point of view of the
zero-point field, it has already happened, like spontaneous
remission of disease and karma. Perhaps the atonement is the
at-one-ment of the zero-point field.

9. The Classical-Quantum Brain
Having already touched upon many aspects of
quantum physics, it is now time to turn our attention to
consciousness itself. No one really knows what consciousness
is. Some believe it is just an emergent property, similar to how
simple elements create storm clouds that create rain or a
hurricane. The hurricane simply emerges from the aggregation
of simpler elements but did not exist beforehand.
Another view, as postulated by physicist Amit
Goswami, is that consciousness is the foundation of all
reality.1 Goswami further suggests that matter is the emergent
property of consciousness. Of course, the consciousness that
Goswami refers to is universal and non-local in nature.
To overcome the duality of Descartes, Goswami
further asserts that mind and body exist in a parallelism, united
and directed by consciousness. Therefore, there is no violation
of the conservation of energy according to the law of thermal
dynamics. With this kind of concept, we can then have an
etheric world, an astral world, and a spirit world all existing in
parallelism, coordinated by consciousness.2 Therefore, there
does not have to be a measurable exchange of energy between
each world, as they are mapped into each other by
consciousness. In this scenario of Gos

following axioms:
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 85 
We have our own thoughts and ideas, but we do not
have consciousness. We are consciousness.

Consciousness has many modalities: unconscious,
subconscious, preconscious, sentient, or self-aware.
There is only one consciousness, and we all share it.

Consciousness without self-awareness is capable of
processing and choosing. This is what universal
consciousness does as it chooses what will be
collapsed from the quantum field of potential.3

Consciousness with self-awareness or sentience is
capable of observing and collapsing, but not choosing.
For Goswami, universal consciousness chooses what
will be, while a sentient self-aware consciousness will
observe, measure, and cause the wave function to collapse.
For Goswami, when absolute consciousness becomes selfentangled, or self-referential, it becomes self-aware and
experiences the world of classical physics (of self and others).
It becomes the lower ego.4 As philosopher Krishnamurti has

sCat
Imagine, if you will (Figure 9-1), that a cat is placed
into a black box and sealed in. In this box is a radioactive
isotope that randomly ejects an ion every twenty to thirty
minutes. Also in the box is a Geiger counter that will beep
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 87 every time a random particle is emitted from the radioactive
isotope. When the counter beeps, a receptive device will swing
a hammer, crashing a vile full of poison gas, thus killing the
cat.
This was only a thought-experiment to try to show the
absurdity of the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum
physics. The argument being that the radioactive particle could
not collapse its wave function until it was measured or
observed. Therefore, the charged particle was in superposition.
This would also, by logic, dictate that the cat was also in
superposition of being both dead and alive and every other
possibility as potential. Thus, the wave function of the cat and
the wave function of the charged particle were entangled, until
someone opened the box and looked. Here are some
considerations:

If consciousness collapses the wave, is the cat dead or
alive before or after you look?

In the Copenhagen-interpretation, the cat is either dead
or alive when you look.

Until you look, it is both dead and alive. Therefore,
whose consciousness decides if the cat is alive or dead,
Schrödinger or his friend?

w:Consciousness is transcendent
and non-local. There is only one consciousness and it
is hierarchally entangled, therefore, there can be no

causes the collapse.
3. Quantum Decoherence view: When quantum systems
interfere with classical systems, they are quickly
suppressed and the wave function collapses without
consciousness being involved.5
4. Idealistic View: Platonic laws and values are chosen by
consciousness at the Big Bang. In this scenario,
decoherence would be another law similar to the laws
of thermal dynamics, chosen by transcendent non-local
consciousness when creation began.
5. Roger Penrose –Stuart Hameroff: Consciousness is a
system in isolation, which does not experience
decoherence,
but self-collapses when a certain
threshold is reached, known as Orchestrated Objective
Reduction.6 This view would support both decoherence

6. Hugh Everett and The Many-Worlds Interpretation of
Quantum Mechanics: One cat is dead in one universe;
one cat is alive in another universe or world. For every
superposition, a universe exists for it.7
All of these views are not the only ones, but they at
least capture the majority of the views out there. In the
Copenhagen view, the cat is in superposition until you look.
The cat is both dead and alive, and entangled with the charged
particle, which also is in superposition. Due to the success of
the delayed choice experiment, proponents of the neoCopenhagen view would argue that even if the cat died onehalf hour before we look, backward causality would allow for
this. Non-local consciousness can move backwards in time
and collapse the dead or alive cat the moment we observe it. In
addition, the collapse is too fast to ever see it.

except he would also argue that universal consciousness has
decided already, before we look, whether the cat is going to be
dead or alive. Therefore, when we look, we are only seeing the
collapse of the choice already given by non-local, transcendent
consciousness. Since absolute consciousness is singular, there
can never be any conflict. Otherwise, who would decide
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 90 whether a traffic light should be green or red at a cross section
of many competing types of consciousness? For Goswami,
this would lead to chaos or solipsism.
The quantum decoherence view is the war cry of the
anti-Copenhagen schools of interpretation. Decoherence
guarantees that quantum systems will not destructively
interrupt the classical world of big things. If this were not so,
then big objects might not be there whenever we are not
looking. Being made of quantum particles, they might begin to

The Quantum Brain Computer
A quantum computer is a machine that uses quantum
superposition and entanglement to do computations that could
not be achieved by a classical computer. One such operation
would be finding the prime of large numbers, which is what
all bank encryptions are based on. Since a quantum computer
could do this faster, the race is on to build it. Several
prototypes exist today.
Instead of using bits like a classical computer, the
quantum computer uses qubits. A qubit is known as a Bloch

is in superposition, likewise, quantum computers have all the
right and wrong answers all at once while being in
superposition. All the particles used in quantum computing are
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 92 controlled, and they represent all possible classical positions
and answers all at once. Thus, with the right query, the best
answer is found faster than with conventional classical
computers.
The biggest problem facing quantum computers is
decoherence or interference from the classical world. If that
happens, then the wave functions collapse before the answers
are found or computed. To offset this, scientists are trying to
work at-or-near zero temperatures, to stop thermal oscillation
from the classical world. Thus, isolating the quantum
computer from decoherence is one of the biggest challenges
being faced.
One of the arguments against Roger Penrose and Stuart
Hameroff and their model of the quantum brain is the fact that
the brain is too warm for quantum computation. It is this
model that we will consider next.
Orchestrated Objective Reduction
If an electron is in superposition and is isolated from
decoherence, it will take about 10,000,000 years before it
reaches its threshold and collapses. However, this is most
unlikely when dealing with the human brain. For Penrose and
Hameroff, the brain is both a classical and a quantum
computer.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 93 The classical part of the brain is the neurons and
dendrites. Inside each neuron are microtubules, tubulins, and
special proteins known as microtubule associated proteins
(Maps). Together, they make up the quantum side of the
brain.9
Simply stated: the microtubules, with the help of the
tubulins, are brought into a state of coherence as a system in
isolation, protected from decoherence by the Maps, which
detach from them, thus suspending them independent and
protected. When the answer is found, a self-organizing
principle with the Maps reconnects to the microtubules, which
connect to the classical brain, creating the collapse and a
moment of conscious experience.10 Penrose and Hameroff
know this phenomenon as Orchestrated Objective Reduction
(OOR). The classical neurons compute at 10-15 CPS, and the
microtubules compute at 10-27 CPS in the quantum brain.
This collapse happens forty times a second, according
to Penrose and Hameroff. When the microtubules are in
superposition, they are in the quantum field of protoconsciousness. Every time the microtubules collapse, we
experience a packet of consciousness. Just like in a 35mm
movie, it only takes 24 frames-per-second to appear
continuous. Thus, we have a streaming consciousness like a
streaming video off the Internet at 40 frames-per-second—too
fast to see or notice the collapse itself (Figure 9-2).
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 94 According to Hameroff, this collapse may be all that is
ever really happening to us. He does not know for sure. The
outer world may only be our experience.
Figure 9-2: Consciousness is a series of collapses 40 CPS.
Penrose traces OOR back to the moment of the Big
Bang itself. The zero-point field for Penrose is the field of
proto-consciousness. Before the Big Bang, all possible
universes existed in superposition. Through the mathematical
formula E = h/T, a threshold is reached, and a type of quantum
gravity forms, which collapses the potential universes into one
choice. At that moment of the collapse, consciousness is
experienced, the choice is made, and OOR takes place. For
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 95 Penrose, Platonic values such as good, beauty, and so forth,
exist in the substratum of the quantum field. This is where the
laws of physics come from and exist.

scenario. For Penrose, superposition occurs when an electron
is smeared all over the place, and this is where the fabric of
the universe is being torn apart. Since each superposition is so
close to each other, based on E = h/T, there is a selforganizing collapse when the threshold is reached. Therefore,

Thoughts and More Thoughts
As I said early on, it is rather interesting that science
seems to be approaching the very threshold and presence of
God. The OOR theory of Hameroff and Penrose echo and
reflect nearly the same scenario as Kashmir Shaivism. As said
before, it must be understood that from the Shaivism point of
view, the universe is being recreated billions of times a
second, by the one consciousness, giving the illusion of
continuity and the ability for constant change.11 It might be
that the absolute proto-consciousness of God is analog or
constant,
whereas
all
other
forms
of
conditioned
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 96 consciousness are digital and come in packets, maybe at forty
CPS for humans.

There have been many astounding studies on Buddhist
monks and their various states of consciousness while
meditating. Scientist, Richard Davidson, and his associates
have a special relationship with the Dalai Lama, who
volunteered several of his senior monks to them for such
consciousness experiments. The Dalai Lama is a known
science buff himself and wanted to help. In June of 2002,
Davidson's associate, Antoine Lutz, positioned 128 electrodes
on the head of a French-born, Tibetan Buddhist monk with
over 10,000 hours of meditation time.1

brainwaves to be about 40 cycles per second (CPS). These
particular brain wave frequencies are described by scientists as
gamma waves. Rather than being the usual (meditation) alpha
wave state, it was a state of calm, focused hyperawareness.2
Any psychology book can teach you about the four
states of consciousness that all human beings share. A yogi or
Buddhist monk with twenty to thirty years of daily meditation
experience can reach any of these states within one minute.3

As with all human beings, our level of consciousness
transverses from beta, to alpha, to theta, to delta every night as
part of our sleep cycle. The gamma wave state is found in
highly criminally insane people, autistic people, epileptics,
and heavy-duty meditators. It is a very controversial subject,
and many argue that it is a state of heightened awareness. The
beta state, which is the everyday waking state for human
beings, is contrasted by the focused hyperawareness state of
the gamma brain wave. Some even suggest that the gamma
wave state is the state of the empirical self. Thus, we could be
most acutely self aware in the gamma wave state or oblivious
in the delta wave state.
JZ Knight, the famous trance-medium, astounded
scientists when they connected her to an EEG machine as she
channeled a spiritual entity named Ramtha. This was because
her brain waves were in the delta wave cycle.4 She could not
be conscious in the delta state, so who was speaking through
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 99 her body?—Ramtha, of course. JZ Knight has testified many
times that when Ramtha is speaking through her, she is not in
her body, and she has no idea what he is saying. During such
times, she is said to be traveling in the spiritual world where
she can, and has, visited the future as well as the past, at will.
While this is interesting, what does it have to do with
quantum physics and the holy grail of consciousness? The
answer is found among the experiments done worldwide to
test the effect of human intention-consciousness upon matter.

The Power of Human Intention
No one is more impressive than Dr. William A. Tiller
of Stanford University, when it comes to applying human
intention to physical matter via the zero-point field. It is
through his experiments that he concluded that the zero-point
energy field responds to human intention. In a brief White
Paper, A Brief Introduction to Intention-Host Device
Research, Tiller discusses his experiments using special
devices to hold human intention.5 Tiller also discusses these
experiments in the movie, What the Bleep Do We Know!?
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 100 Tiller and associates believe that there are two types of
states of physical reality: the classical world and the world of
the zero-point field. These two fields exist but do not interact
with each other directly. However, when human intention is
added, a coupling takes place between these two realities, and
the classical world is altered in some way. Otherwise, they
usually remain uncoupled.
One particular experiment consisted of seasoned
meditators, with a common intention between them. Their
intention was to raise the pH level in a vessel of water by one
unit. The specially designed electronic devices, which held the
human intentions, were wrapped in aluminum foil and sent to
various labs throughout the country. The test was double-blind
and was successful. The experimenters in the blind test did not
even know what the electronic devices were supposed to do.
They were just instructed to place the devices near the water
and take measurements. The fact that human intention can be
stored and unite the classical field with the zero-point field is
astounding. The pH level of the water was increased by one
unit. To convey the significance of this degree of increase, if
this same rise happened worldwide, life on this planet would
end.
What is going on here? Not only is the observer able to
collapse
a
wave
function
through
observation
and
measurement in quantum physics experiments, but also is able
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 101 to affect all the atoms and molecules in a whole batch of
water. Are five meditators better than one? What could a
hundred trained meditators do? How much effect could they
have? If human intention can affect reality, what is the
threshold that must be reached before a collapse can happen in
the physical world due to intention? This is truly telekinesis or
mind-over-matter.
The Maharishi Effect
In 1960, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi predicted that 1% of
a population practicing the Transcendental Meditation (TM)
technique would produce measurable improvements in the
quality of life for the whole population.6 From the years of
1976 to 1993, groups of people trained in TM were placed
strategically
throughout
the
world.
There
were
fifty
demonstrations and twenty-six published studies, each
showing what became to be called the Maharishi Effect.
In many cases, crime dropped by 50-75%, heart
disease by 87%, cancer by 55%, and the need for major
surgery by 76%. It was discovered that the number of
advanced meditators, who could do the TM siddhi/powers
meditation, only needed to be the square root of 1% of the
population to affect the greater whole. The regular TM
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 102 meditators needed 1% to affect their given threshold or whole
of the population.
If taken at face value, for the world at large, it would
only take
7,745
advanced
TM
meditators
to
affect
6,000,000,000 people or 60 million regular TM meditators to
have the same affect. It would only take 1,732 advanced TM
meditators to affect the United States of America or 3 million
regular TM meditators to have the same affect.
Regardless of the size needed to create the Maharishi
Effect, there are other things to consider. All of these
practitioners were trained in the same method. Thus, they all
had group coherence and individual coherence. Human
intention and consciousness scientists have discovered that
order (or coherence) dominates disorder. If this were not so,
the Maharishi effect could not work. Nor would the
experiments of Dr. William Tiller fare any better.

stronger than a disorganized brain intention. Whether we are
dealing with telepathy or telekinesis, coherence is a major
principle involved in influencing the zero-point field.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 103 The DNA Phantom Effect
Another strange effect from the zero-point energy field
was the one done by Russian scientist Vladimir Poponin.7 This
experiment is highly controversial but has never been
disproved by anyone so far. The experiment included some
highly sophisticated equipment and a controlled vacuum tube
containing nothing but random photons of light. Within the
virtually empty vacuum tube, light was found to be randomly
located. This came as no surprise to Poponin and his
associates. It was to be expected.
Next, Poponin inserted samples of human DNA into
the vacuum tube. For no known reason, the photons began to
become coherently organized around the DNA helix. There

strange enough already, it gets even better. When Poponin
removed the human DNA from the vacuum, the photons
remained in coherent order. Poponin named this phenomenon
the DNA Phantom Effect.
Poponin concluded that there had to be an unknown
field connection between the human DNA and the photons.
The connection between the field and the human DNA is

consciousness connects the zero-point energy field to physical
matter. In this case, human DNA carries a field of
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 104 consciousness—or vibration—within it, perhaps even still
linked to its donor. DNA also has its own molecular frequency
or vibration.
Good Vibrations
According to a leading researcher of biophotons,
German biophysicist Fritz-Albert Popp, light is constantly
being absorbed and remitted by DNA molecules within each
cell's nucleus. These biophotons create a dynamic, coherent
web of light.8 In fact, Popp hypothesized that all cells
communicate to each other via the vibration of these
biophotons of light. It may be that cellular waves or vibrations
trigger all chemical reactions. In fact, you may only need the
vibrations or waves and not the chemical at all.

and slow down by only using the vibratory signal of the
chemicals needed to cause the effect. They never needed the
actual chemicals to cause any effect; they only needed to send
their signals. In fact, they even proved that you could send
these signals over the Internet and get the same results.9
Imagine the significance this has on the causes of
disease. Cancer has its own vibration—a signature vibration of
its own—as does every other disease. However, we will
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 105 discuss those implications later. The United States Army
conducted another experiment involving human DNA:

room, the DNA did also react at virtually the same instant, at
faster than light speed, and recorded a virtual identical
electrical readout. This experiment was successfully repeated
several years later at a distance of over 350 miles between the
donor and the DNA sample.
Again, we see another example of the zero-point
energy field becoming the medium of communication between
two
coherent
objects.
Human
emotion
and
human
consciousness was involved at some level with the zero-point
energy field, a field that responds to human intention.
Some Conclusions
At the beginning of the twentieth century, the sensitive
equipment needed to measure and test for fields that lay
beyond the electromagnetic levels just did not exist. Like

dows on the
wall. A few pioneers broke loose of their materialistic bonds
and began to see the Platonic forms that were creating the
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 107 shadows on the cave wall. They noticed that there was light
behind the forms, creating the shadows. They found the mouth
of the cave and sought to ascend to the light outside the cave
of traditional ignorance.
Those who looked directly into the Sun felt the pain
created from so many years in the cave of ignorance, upon
their unused, over-sensitive eyes. When they came back to the
cave to free the other prisoners still trapped there, they were
attacked, spat upon, and rejected.
The names of these heroes of science, religion, and
philosophy are countless, ranging throughout all of human
history. In the twenty-first century, we now have the devices
to begin to see the Sun from within our cave. Unlike Plato,
who was an initiate of higher consciousness while Aristotle
was not, we have for centuries followed the way of Aristotle
towards materialism. Now we come full circle, back to the
beginning, and see the truth for the very first time, as Plato did
two thousand years earlier.

11. Entrainment, Coherence, Resonance
In science, entrainment, coherence, and resonance are
equivalent in meaning. In quantum physics, physical healing,
telepathy, telekinesis, and all other physical systems, where
meaningful communication takes place, there must be
coherence.
An example of entrainment would be a room full of
grandfather clocks with their pendulums swinging each in its
own pattern. However, after a sufficient length of time, all the
pendulums would eventually become entrained and swing
back and forth in synchronicity. They would then be coherent,
and as a group they would resonate a composite vibration.
We have mentioned thus far that living cells can
communicate to each other without physically touching. All
communication in the body, whether by chemical molecules,
hormones, or the nervous system, guarantees a vibrational
relationship is involved. Each type of cell has its own
vibration. When an isolated cell gets out of phase, the
surrounding cells will entrain that cell back into vibrational
alignment. That is what health is. If the entrainment fails, the
cell becomes diseased. Collectively, the human body taken as
a whole has a composite vibration as well as its individual
parts.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 110 One human physical system that has been deeply
understood only in the last decade is the perineural system.
This system consists of all the connective tissue in the body,
which stems from the nuclear to the cytoskeleton cellular, to
the periosteum on bones, to the muscular system, skin, organs,
and everything in-between.1 Thanks to the tireless efforts of
Dr. James L. Oschman, many of the latest discoveries about
this system have been brought to light.
Due to the canals of water between each of the cells,
the perineural system works as a unit or living matrix, with a
semi-conduction of electromagnetic waves. Oschman goes on
further to point out that the human body generates both
electrical and magnetic pulses.
Two Measurable Forces
The human body generates electrical fields, which in
turn generate magnetic fields. These are often named
bioelectrical and biomagnetic. The bioelectrical fields are
limited to the body structures, but the biomagnetic fields are
not and emanate beyond the physical body. Two movements
generate electricity in the tissues of the body: mechanical and
hydraulic.
One example is how charged particles or ions traveling
through the cardiovascular system interact with static tissues
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 111 and create bioelectricity. The other form of bioelectricity is
caused by structural deformation, muscle contraction, and the
crystalline structure of the bones. This bioelectric effect is
known as piezoelectric. The whole perineural system is like a
liquid crystal. Living crystals are soft, pliable, and composed
of long flexible molecules.2
The perineural system, like a composite liquid crystal,
is a semiconductor. A semiconductor is the middle ground
between a conductor and an insulator. It is capable of carrying
bioelectrical signals throughout the whole body at once. It is
considered by Oschman to be faster than the nervous system
in relaying communications throughout the body.
Remember that the model of consciousness by
Hameroff and Penrose was based on the microtubules in the
brain cells (known as neurons) being able to vibrate, isolated,
into quantum superposition. This idea first came to Hameroff
while watching a one-celled paramecium reproduce, look for
food, and solve problems without a nucleus, brain, or nervous
system. The microtubules knew how to cause cell division
without a physical brain directing its actions. Microtubules are
part of the perineural system; therefore, many evolutionists
believe that the perineural system is the original proto-nervous
system.

magnetic field and can be detected several feet away from the
body.3 This shows that biomagnetic fields are not limited to
the body and that they emanate outwards towards the
surrounding environment. These magnetic fields both affect
and are affected by the magnetic environment.
In order for health to exist in the body, the body must
be biologically coherent. Through clinical experiments, it has
been
discovered
that
biomagnetic
frequencies
contain
information. This information jump-starts the healing process
and stimulates faster mending of broken tissues. Specific
discrete frequencies send different messages to different
tissues, using various electronic instruments. See Table 11-1.

between 0.03 to 50 cycles per second (CPS) but mostly
hovered at 7.8 CPS. This becomes interesting because this is
where the Schumann waves of the Earth tend to resonate.
Schumann Waves and Planetary Entrainment
Physicist Winfried Otto Schumann mathematically
predicted the existence of the resonance between the Earth and
the Ionosphere in 1952. However, it was not until
measurements made by Balser and Wagner in 1960-19636 that
proved its existence. The Schumann Wave resonates roughly
between 1-40Hz. This is similar to the range of human
brainwaves and the array of healing energies emanating from

Figure 11-1: Schumann Waves
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 114 The Schumann Wave is created by a combination of
lightning activity from around the world (Figure 11-1). There
are about 200 lightning strikes every second of every day.
Therefore, the field is constantly being charged. These pulses
tend to occur mostly in the daytime and are influenced by
solar, lunar, and planetary positions, as well as sunspots.
This overlapping between biological fields and the
Schumann resonance is not accidental but part of our
evolutionary history. Our health is so dependent on it that
NASA and the USSR studied the effects of prolonged space
travel, where the astronauts did not receive any normal
Schumann resonance. The astronauts were more disoriented
than expected to be. It is now believed by many researchers
that NASA shuttles are now equipped with Schumann wave
generators.7
What is known and has been studied are the
entrainment effects on organisms, both internal and external.

field. Geomagnetic rhythms also cue up and affect biorhythms
in multiple ways. The ancient acupuncture belief in circadian
rhythms of the human body has now been verified.8
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 115 Entrainment Internal/External its Effects on People
There have been arguments, both pro and con, on the
effects of external entrainment upon human beings. However,
the evidence over the last two decades supports the effects of
weather, the geomagnetic field, solar storms, and sunspots on
human behavior. Just a spike in humidity alone will drive up
all the pain indicators for chronic arthritic conditions.
Many studies have concluded that the brain has its own
built-in entrainment system, located in either the thalamus or
the pineal gland.9 According to researchers, a thalamic
oscillation takes place with the buildup of calcium ions, which
oscillates between 1.5 to 28 seconds. When this threshold is
reached, a silent phase begins that lasts for about 5 to 25
seconds. During this silent phase, external entrainment can
dominate.10

exciting (Figure 11-2). Oschman perceives the Schumann
resonance entraining the pineal gland12, which in turn entrains
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 116 the whole perineural system, which in turn allows the healer to
transmit the vibration to an injured tissue site. Remember:
coherency dominates the disorganization found in disease, and
magnetic fields are not limited to body structures for
containment.

is activated. Healers are able to affect their clients more easily
and are more successful on such days.13
To the contrary, on very calm days when the
geomagnetic field is silent, and the solar storms are abated,
telepathy is stronger while healing and telekinesis is weaker.
This would make sense from the point of view of quantum
mechanics. It takes a sufficiently strong wave to reach its
threshold before it prematurely collapses from decoherence
and interference from the classical world of physics.
Some Conclusions
The purpose of this chapter is to show that even on a
materialistic level, the universe is made up of electromagnetic
waves. These waves are amendable to entrainment, coherence,
and human intention. Order dominates disorder. Order is
health, and disorder is disease. Just the vibrational signal,
minus its chemical molecule, is all that is needed to cause
cellular changes. Two cells can communicate without
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 118 touching, just by oscillating the right frequency. This is
starting to sound like St

which emitted vibrations of entrainment to facilitate healing in
his sick bay.
Finally, for those who would like to know what space
weather is like on a daily basis, I suggest the Space Weather
Prediction Center, better known as NOAA.14 A G1 is a mild
storm and a G5 is a severe storm. Check it out for yourself.
See if you are psychic more so on some days than other days.
You may find that you have more synchronistic events happen
to you during strong geomagnetic storms or magnetic solar
mass ejections.
We live in a universe of geomagnetic waves of varying
frequencies, not solid particles. While this chapter is
interesting, we still have not connected it with the deeper
levels of the zero-point field. We will consider that later. For
now, we will continue another aspect of this conversation. We
will follow the lead started by Harold Saxton Burr, taken up
by David Bohm, and carried on further by Rupert Sheldrake:
the theory of morphogenesis and the form fields involved.

Anatomist/Surgeon, Julius Wolff (1836–1902), in the 19th
century. In short, it means that the way a bone functions soon
will cause a remodeling in the bone itself, due to the demands
placed upon it. However, we could extend this definition to
cover the complete human body. If you walk bent over for a
substantial length of time, you will change the shape of your
organs, muscles, and connective tissues as well.
This is one way to look at form remodeling in the
biological divisions of matter and could be extended to nonliving matter as well. The question is thus begged, how does
the initial form of a cell, a bone, a muscle, or the human body
take place? If you argue that it comes from the genes or DNA,
you would be wrong. The DNA is identical in every cell of a
human body. So, where does the information come from to tell
the DNA what type of cell to make, how many to make, and
what form it should take?

Morphogenesis is a problem for biological scientists of all
camps and divisions of theory.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 121 Dr. Harold Saxton Burr (1889-1973) first presented a
theoretical solution to the problem of morphogenesis publicly
from 1916 to just before his death. He had worked many years
upon the subject but did not become that vocal about it until
he had secured tenure at Yale University School of Medicine.

conclude that all living things –from men to mice, from trees
to seeds –are molded and controlled by electro-dynamic
fields. These fields could be measured and mapped with
standard voltmeters. Thus, it was the electro-dynamic fields
that caused form to happen and not the DNA.
It must be mentioned that the concept of the field was
relatively new to the 19th and 20th centuries. From the 17th
century to about 1840, matter was still considered the
fundamental reality and comparable to little round billiard
balls interacting with each other. It was not until Michael
Faraday (1791 –1867) had discovered electromagnetism, that
the concept of the field entered physics. However, it was not

the
mathematics
needed
to
describe
the
electromagnetic fields for physics. Yet, the concept of the
subtle energy of ether was still believed to exist and played a
part in the foundation of the field.
It was not until the Michelson-Morley experiment of
1887 that physics convinced itself that ether did not exist.
Later, even Einstein hedged back and forth on the subject
several times. Today, it is believed that the equipment used by
Michelson-Morley was too crude to actually measure for
etheric fields. Therefore, ether may actually exist at some level
of reality, as Max Planck suggested in 1944.3
Thus, we have many fields in science today and many
electromagnetic waves of varying frequencies. We have
gravitational fields, electrical fields, magnetic fields, and zeropoint fields to name a few. This has led science to the search
for the one ground or unifying field. String theory and other
pursuits by physics represent the effort to find the Holy Grail
of physics: the Grand Unified Field. So far, it has not been
found, but most physicists believe it will be found later if not
sooner. Thus, the passion for reductionism in science is
reinforced because it is believed that by understanding the
tiniest pieces of matter, we will understand the whole

Reductionism as scientific method has spilled over into
molecular biology, because molecules are the smallest units
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 123 within the life sciences. Microbiologists believe that the
answers to incurable diseases and more will be found at this
sub-cellular level of existence. Therefore, reductionism
theories get the most funding in universities. However, some
pioneers in biology, as well as in physics, have heard the
sound of a different drummer and have gone in another
direction. They believe the answer to how formation takes
place in both living and non-living matter is not found in
reductionism, or in holistic views, but rather in the fields of
formation-ism.
The Revolution Begins
The concept of the field has entered biology through
Burr and many others, such as Robert Becker and Gary
Selden.5 There has also been pioneering work by Richard
Gerber in his book Vibrational Medicine.6 Yet, one of the
most well-known pioneers is Rupert Sheldrake7, who has
taken his understanding to both the academic world and to the
common citizen.
Sheldrake has probably done more than anyone to
make the concept of morphogenic fields more comprehensible
and scientific. In his earlier work A New Science of Life, he
demonstrates his basic foundational concepts concerning
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 124 morphogenic fields. He also has many videos on the Internet,
free to anyone who has the inclination to view them.
In one such Internet video8, Sheldrake states that no
one understands embryology or the mechanism behind the
formations taking place. We have limbs, yet one limb is a right
limb, and the other is a left limb. The DNA is identical. How
does the body get instructions to form right limbs and left
limbs? Thus, the concept of a morphic field as a working
hypothesis is then presented by Sheldrake.
One great concept that shows how electro-magnetic
fields relate to living morphogenic fields can be shown with
an ordinary bar magnet. See Figure 12-1 below.
Figure 12-1: Break a bar magnet into four pieces and you will then
have four bar magnets.
If you take a bar magnet and break it into four pieces,
you have not destroyed the magnet or its magnetism. Instead,
what you have created now is four new magnets, each
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 125 containing its own magnetic field. The field remains, but in
smaller parameters. What you see reflected here is a
regeneration of the original bar magnet into four complete
smaller units.
Regeneration is also a huge problem to explain with
mainstream molecular biology. Imagine taking a flatworm and
cutting it into three equal pieces (see Figure 12-2).
Figure 12-2: Shows how one flatworm after being dissected into three
pieces can regenerate as three complete flatworms.
By comparison to the regeneration of the magnets
mentioned
above,
the
flatworm
regenerates
as
three
completely new flatworms. This is a good comparison to show
how morphogenic fields have properties similar to magnetic
fields. For Sheldrake, morphogenic fields can be affected by
magnetic and electrical fields, but are themselves neither.
Human beings can regenerate a liver, but not a limb.
Yet, newts and salamanders can regenerate their limbs.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 126 Sheldrake takes this a step further and shows that after
removing the lens from the eye of a newt, it was able to
regenerate the whole lens from the edge of the iris.9 This is not

So where does the new ability come from? It comes from the
morphogenic field that surrounds all newts as a species.
Sheldrake proposes that there are many morphic fields
and different types. There are social fields, mind fields,
behavior fields, and fields that even form crystals. Sheldrake
reports that when a new crystal is made in a laboratory for the
first time, it takes time for the form field or morphic field to
assimilate and form the crystal. Yet, in subsequent
experiments, the new crystal is forming faster and faster
because the morphic field for that species of crystal is able to
learn.10
Resonance is the term Sheldrake uses to explain the
causative ability of morphogenic fields to learn from the past
and from other fields. To his credit, Sheldrake does not
consider morphogenic fields to be made of mass or waves and
to be non-energetic.11 However, without the morphogenic
fields, the universe would be in chaos. Sheldrake also sees no
reason why morphogenic fields should have to obey the
known laws of classical physics and that future resonances or
causes could possibly happen.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 127 Morphogenic fields, for Sheldrake, explain how
telepathy can and does exist between people and animals. He
considers this to be very natural and not supernatural. When
showing picture puzzles for the first time to a group of people,
it took them so long, on average, to figure out the hidden
image. As one might guess, the more the experiment was
done, the faster each new group could solve the picture puzzle.
This demonstrates a possible collective unconscious, similar to
what Carl G. Jung proposed.
Finally, for Sheldrake, the laws of the universe are
merely habits that have been built over time. These habits
could also be described as memory. Sheldrake indicates by
analogy that morphic fields are hierarchical in nature. Just as a
city is in a county, a county is in a state, a state is in a country,
and a country is in a world, so are morphic fields configured
(Figure 12-3).
Figure 12-3: Here is shown a Chinese series of hierarchical sets of
threes. Each one is nested in the other.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 128 Therefore, as shown in Figure 12-3, Sheldrake sees
morphic fields as being nested in each other hierarchically.12
For Sheldrake, the morphic fields are natural but cannot be
measured directly, due to the limitations of current science and
technology. He believes that someday they will be found. Yet,
he does not deny that electromagnetic fields and chemistry can
affect morphogenic fields and the resultant forms, but they
cannot explain them.
Electromagnetic Stimulation
For those who live closer to the earth, there were two
more experiments done to see if animals not having the natural
ability to regenerate could be stimulated to do so through
artificial means. In 1967, Stephen D. Smith, at the University
of Kentucky, implanted tiny batteries into the amputated limbs
of a frog. Frogs cannot regenerate their limbs like salamanders
can. Smith was successful showing that electromagnetic
vibration could stimulate regeneration.13 There were also some
successful experiments on rats and other small mammals, but
not as dynamic as a true morphic field could accomplish.14
As we have already shown in the last few chapters,
vibrational medicine is becoming more accepted everyday.
Electromagnetic instruments with specific frequencies can
stimulate soft tissue and bone growth. However, none of these
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 129 magnetic stimulations can explain form. Just as chemistry and
steroids can stimulate growth into form, they of themselves
cannot explain it.
Group Souls and Morphogenic Fields
The problem of form goes all the way back to Aristotle
and Plato. Yet, as time goes by, Plato seems more right than
was at first accredited him. Could a morphogenic field be the
extension of the perfect form of a species as Plato taught? Are
there Universal Forms and Essences that learn and change?
C. Jinarajadasa, a theosophist and faithful follower of
H. P. Blavatsky, taught the esoteric doctrine of group souls.15
A group soul can account for the group intelligence of a
species, whether it be animal, mineral, or vegetable. How do
bees know how to build geodesic hives? How does the whole
species of monkeys learn something when a threshold is
reached, such as the 100th monkey syndrome?16
In 1952, on the island of Koshima, scientists were
providing monkeys with sweet potatoes dropped in the sand.
The monkeys would spend hours picking off the sand particles
before eating the sweet potatoes. Then one day, a young
female of about 18 months accidentally dropped the sweet
potato into the beach water. When she picked it up, it was
washed clean of all sand particles. From that day forward, she
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 130 began to teach other monkeys to do the same. Except for a few
old-timers, every monkey had mastered the skill of washing
the sweet potatoes by 1958. This would be reward enough,
except that it gets even better. When the scientists visited the
neighboring islands, all of the same species of monkeys had
already adopted the same skill of sweet potato washing. This
knowledge and ability had jumped the oceans to other islands.
A threshold had been reached, similar to the wave function in
quantum physics, and the whole species adapted at once to the
new skill and knowledge. Thus, it was named the 100th
monkey syndrome to represent the unknown threshold.
The famous Jesuit scholar, Teilhard de Chardin,
proposed that an event or threshold was going to happen to all

Another indirect interpretation of morphogenic fields
is found in the works of Rudolph Steiner, the famous
Anthroposophist. His view of universal forms is closer to

ields. For Steiner, the
eternal forms were non-static (moving and adapting).
Steiner, through direct clairvoyant perception of the
more subtle realms of existence, could see what theosophists
name group souls (see Figure 12-4). He saw that a human
being had seven vehicles, not just the physical body. He
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 131 perceived that the higher vehicles had the perfected form of
the man, but the lower vehicles, due to karma, had many times
become distorted, creating disease.
Figure 12-4: Schematic of the Constitution of Man, Angel, Archangel,
and Archai. For Man: 1. Physical Body, 2. Etheric Body, 3. Astral
Body, 4. Higher Ego, 5. Spirit Self, 6. Spirit Life, 7. Spirit Body.
In his writings, Steiner proposed that the physical body
of an archangel is no longer connected to the archangel
directly. In fact, it is now many physical bodies of a single
species, perhaps an animal.17 The archangel itself is the
overlord or ruling soul of the group. This spiritual being is the
intelligence behind the morphogenic field. What the perfect
form of a tiger should be is already known in the spiritual
realms. It is the consciousness of the group soul that preserves
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 132 the plan, or architecture, and commands the etheric-electro
and magnetic fields of builders to direct the DNA and
chemicals, on the physical plane, to create the form as already
blueprinted.
At the levels of the electromagnetic, karma happens,
fields are distorted and deviated from the Divine Plan, and
malformation takes place. This is where acupuncture and
many forms of vibrational medicine work to correct the energy
body of the patient to insure healing.
Steiner also mentions that the group souls of nations
are archangels and that the archai rule whole ages of
evolution. These beings are also evolving and changing. These

bodies, our bodies in a community, etc. Therefore, it is not
inconceivable that the morphic field of a group of monkeys is
the group soul of an archangel.

theories of morphogenic fields, even though he may think it
does not. He has already regulated his hypotheses to the non-
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 133 detectable by inferring that the morphic fields are neither
waves, nor particles, nor subject to time and space limitations.

The second law of thermal dynamics is violated if there is no
exchange of measurable energy between the morphic fields
and the physical form.
Plainly speaking, Sheldrake is right: the morphic fields
do in fact exist. They are a necessity. However, if we borrow

consciousness is the foundation of reality, then the dualism
disappears. Through a parallelism of realms, consciousness
maps in the directions given in the morphic fields to the
physical forms. No exchange of energy need be happening and
the second law of thermal dynamics is not violated.
This does not mean that self-consciousness is not an
epiphenomena; it most likely is. Self-consciousness is the
epiphenomena of proto or absolute consciousness reflecting
back on itself. Comparable to light, which remains invisible
until reflected back, self-awareness is the result of absolute
consciousness reflecting back on itself through the physical
brain. The brain is both a receiver and a sender of information,
a tool of consciousness. The brain is a fun house of mirrors for
consciousness to become its own subject. Thus, as
Krishnamurti proclaimed, the observer becomes the observed.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 134 However, absolute consciousness is proto consciousness or
Divine Consciousness. Remember: higher consciousness is the
Holy Grail and there are gradients or degrees of consciousness
between ego personality and the Divine.

How will knowing about the zero-point field, scalar
waves, and morphogenic fields help free humanity? Well, for
one, apparently within the vacuum of space is all the energy
we could ever need, want, and use. It does not entropy or
cause oil spills. Dr. William A. Tiller3 has made this
abundantly clear and has demonstrated, through his research,
that the zero-point field responds to human intention.
What we think, feel, and observe matters. Whenever
we observe, we are making a measurement in the field of our
perception. Our left-brain filters all the excess data from our
right-brain, in accordance to our conditioning. In a sense, our
complete brain is the result of the collapse of the morphic field
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 137 that programs it. Change the morphic field and you change the
collapse of the wave function, no matter what it is. This is how
instant healing and spontaneous remission of disease happens.
Sheldrake has argued that there are morphic fields
nested within other morphic fields.4 By analogy, I would argue
that every system in the human body has a unique morphic
field interacting with others. There is a morphic field copy of
every organ in the human body. As consciousness affects the
zero-point field, the zero-point field affects the scalar waves.
The scalar waves affect the morphic fields, which affect the
electromagnetic fields of the body through vibration, which
programs the DNA, which results in either health or disease.
In a sense, scalar waves are the inverse of
electromagnetic fields, and vice versa. James Clerk Maxwell
originally understood this in his original twenty-four
quaternion equations. Together, they are the unified field
Einstein was looking for.5 When Maxwell died, Oliver
Heaviside took over his work and edited the equations down
to a simplistic four equations. No copy of the original work by
Maxwell remained and has been lost to history. Perhaps, the
reason Einstein failed to unify gravity with the other forces of
physics is because he was building on the truncated versions

Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 138 Dr. Richard Bartlett and Matrix Energetics®
One researcher who has been doing some exciting
work in applying quantum physics and consciousness to
healing is Dr. Richard Bartlett.6 At his seminars, many people
are instantly healed of various problems, such as scoliosis.
Others receive healing over a measure of time. Significant
personalities, such as the Dali Lama and Dr. William A. Tiller,
have been seen at his seminars. Bartlett has not produced any
statistics as to what percentage of people are helped by his
methods, and perhaps he feels that this is not the issue. His
seminars are to train people to do what he does, for themselves
and others.
Building on what Bartlett calls the quantum physics
mythology, he has explained and taught his concepts. For

consciousness to begin to observe or notice what he notices.
He observes from the heart space what is different both
internally and externally. Observing without judging allows
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 139 for a new pathway or space to be created.8 The main key is to
do nothing and allow the morphic field to collapse on its own.
When successful, the related morphic field is collapsed anew,
even causing the client to swoon in a wave-like motion. A
kind of restructuring takes place. This phenomenon often
results in spontaneous healing. Of course, there is much more
to this theory by Bartlett, but this is a good thumbnail sketch
of his concept for our purposes.
Other Methods of Quantum Energy Healing
Other methods of healing are taking place at quantum
levels by the consciousness shifting of the healer him/her self.
The practitioner, such as of the Yuen Method, makes
corrections energetically to the patient.9 By scanning the body
energetically, using muscle testing, the problem is identified
and corrected by the consciousness of the practitioner.
Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT)10, made popular
by Gary Craig (now retired), is another example of quantum
physics and consciousness leading to healing. By gently
tapping on Chinese meridian points (the same ones
acupuncturists
use),
healing is
initiated.
The current
Newtonian model of physics cannot explain this; it is another
form of quantum healing.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 140 Some Conclusions
Morphic fields and the patterns of scalar waves often
seen in sand dunes, ocean currents, and cloud formations may
only be the results of long-term habits. The basic laws of the
universe might only be the buildup of morphic fields that are
able to learn and remember what works. Maybe they can learn
because they are the vehicles of conscious beings (angels).
Perhaps an undercurrent, a master morphic field, or
Platonic form exists and is the self-correcting impulse in the

intention is what we will deal with in the next chapter.

14. The War of All Against All
Spiritual scientist and Doctor of epistemology,
Rudolph Steiner, spoke many times of the war of all against
all. This never made sense to me until I began to understand
the implications of quantum physics and the power of human
intention. Steiner stated:
Mighty flames of fire destroyed ancient Lemuria, and
mighty floods ancient Atlantis. Our civilization will
also perish, through the war of all against all. This is
what we must face. Our fifth root-race will perish,
because egoism will reach its highest pitch.1
If we couple extreme egoism with human focused
intention, what will then be the result? If, over time, all of
humanity gets in touch with the awareness of telekinesis and
the power of intention, will we turn on each other like a pack
of mad, rabid, infested wolves? Steiner goes on further to say:
But at the same time, a small group of men will
develop the power of Budhi, of the Life-Spirit, through
the force of thought, in order to carry over Budhi into
the new civilization. Everything that is productive in
the striving human being will grow stronger and
stronger, until his personality reaches the summit of
freedom.2

tthe
war of all against all is unavoidable and will result with a
remnant of survivors who will carry on the human race. This
remnant will develop the higher mind/spirit inner guidance
that will help them survive the global transition. The higher
ego is to be honored and the lower ego to be transcended and
redeemed through completion.
Steiner is not alone in his concern about the misuses of
egocentric-directed power struggles. The great high priestess
of the occult, H. P. Blavatsky, stressed many times the power
of human intention and focused imagination to create dark
results.
This
could
happen
both
consciously
and
unconsciously. Anyone who dabbled in such dark arts
consciously, to kill or cause harm to another, was known as a
black magician or Dugpa in India.3 However, even
unconscious dark intentions still can happen with unaware,
negative-intentioned people.
Blavatsky herself was quite a master of telekinesis. She
could precipitate letters from the Masters out of seemingly
thin air. She could transmute metal, such as turning a lead set
of apartment keys into a whistle for a present. She could also
duplicate objects like a hand mirror. She claimed to do these
things through the Indian practice of Kriya Shakti or Mind
Power.4
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 144 On a more contemporary note, Lynn McTaggart tells
of her experience with her own non-intended negative
intentions.5 When McTaggart discovered that her house
cleaner accidentally cleaned off all of the chrome from her
new
expensive
bathroom
faucets,
she
went
ballistic
emotionally. Later she discovered that at the exact time she
felt this way, her house cleaner fell down and hurt herself.
This is, of course, anecdotal, but it makes the point.
McTaggart calls this the Voodoo Effect.
McTaggart documents studies for us that show how
many times healers use negative intention to get desired
results. One such time would be when healers are intending
that cancer cells die.6 Healers, through negative intentions, can
also inhibit bacterial growth.
Other healers are afraid to use negative intentions.
They are afraid that the negative intention will move beyond
the bacteria or cancer onto the patient. The Canadian healer,
Olga Worrell, feels this way and will not use such negative
intentions.7 It was also discovered that distance is no limit for
negative or positive intentions. Bacterial cultures could be
affected 15 miles away during experiments for telekinesis.

they can also strengthen others and themselves.

Mass Minded Implications and the Media
By implication, if a collective morphic field of
consensus thinking exists for humanity, and human intention
collapses the world into existence, think of the power the
media has. People do not have to consciously know they are
part of a consensus morphic field to be manipulated into
manifesting what the media wants them to create. Propaganda
mass media machines actually create what the elite want to
manifest. This is the secret behind ad campaigns and mass
media exposure. If Oprah Winfrey promotes your book on her

or
Oprah; she is well intentioned, and she uses the media
correctly to do well.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 146 Mass exposure is one thing, but programming for
manifestation is another. Somewhat similar to the movie, The
Matrix, starring Keanu Reeves, newscasters are doing more
than reporting the news; they are literally creating it. Even if it

programming people; and the mainstream media enforces
materialism as the one true reality. Instead of a field of human
batteries, like in the Matrix movie, we have a field of
unconscious human co-creators. Once a consensus is reached,
like the hundredth monkey analogy, gravity rules, and the
populace cannot levitate. Another collective wave collapses
from the Zero-Point field, and materialism is reinforced. Only
mystics and Gurus, who think outside the collective morphic
field, still can literally walk on water.10
However, the Internet can be an alternative to mass
media domination. Chat rooms, Internet blogs, and other
interactive communications have the potential to challenge the
mass mainstream media and force it to be more honest.
Some Conclusions
In my opinion, there are secret societies that have held
back this knowledge of co-creation and manifestation of
reality from the general society for good reasons originally. At
least, this is what has been argued and taught by esoteric
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 147 philosophy. However, it is obvious that the time has come
where the greater truth needs to be made clearer. The veil of
Isis has now been publicly rented, like the Jewish inner temple
veil at the time of the crucifixion of Christ. The separation
between God and humanity is gone, even if it was never there.
We all have equal access to the Zero-Point quantum field. An
intermediary or organization is no longer needed in the
traditional sense.
As the many branches of twenty-first century science
catch up with the perceptual doors opened by quantum physics
in the twentieth century, the one truth that science, philosophy,
and religion all have sought is at hand. Even if quantum
physics turns out to be only a useful fiction, it did lead us back
to the Grail castle and the truth. The truth is that consciousness
collapses the universe. Blessed are those whose eyes are open,
and whose ears do hear. For those who can bear it, the
Kingdom of Heaven is truly at hand.

15. Afterward
In this work, I have tried to show the implications of
quantum physics and its relationship to consciousness. I do not
consider this book to be a work of mainstream science, but
rather of spiritual science and philosophy. And like the ancient
seafaring maps, where the navigator would fill in the unknown
charted areas with a serpent, we have been swimming with the
serpents during this work.
The archetype of the serpent was a symbol in the
ancient Eastern cultures of Wisdom. It was also the symbol
used to refer to initiates of higher consciousness, who were
considered twice born: once as a human, and again as a god.
Therefore, Jesus could speak in code when he admonished his
followers to be wise as serpents, but gentle as doves.1
We are at a crossroads in human evolution, socially
and individually. Our relationship and responsibility to our
own thoughts, feelings, and intentions are being made
apparent. Our very lives and health depend on it. Drug
induced medicine is slowly failing with prescriptive side
effects more malignant than the symptoms being treated by
them. Modern medicine is on the brink of a revolution,
moving towards vibrational medicine and energy healing
work.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 150 Organized religions that are flexible enough to
embrace the change in human consciousness may survive. If
they cannot, they will be replaced by those that can. Science
and Spirit are coming together in spite of the inertia
encountered with the former religious and scientific status
quo.
Political and economical systems are failing, being
based upon primitive materialistic models and crippling
morphic fields. The creation of all poverty is based upon the
belief in poverty as a necessary fact. Yet, the facts are that
poverty is politically created through the belief and intention
of the collective morphic field that allows it to continue.
For we wrestle, not against flesh and blood, but against
principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the
darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high
places, and morphic fields of large investment.2
In my book, The Gospel of Co-Creation,3 I discuss in
fuller detail the implications and ultimate teleology of
humanity. We are not the only gods in the universe. No, we
are just the youngest. We are learning to be conscious
creators, how to form a square in our imaginations, you might
say, when we want to.
All the gods before us have been human at some stage
in their development. They too had to go through their war of
all against all. Nevertheless, they ultimately learned to work
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 151 together as a community of willingly submitted egos. You see
this theme reflected in the Star Trek series by the relationship
between humanity and the Vulcans. The Vulcans are a higher
race that takes humanity under its wing, after we develop
warp-drive spaceships, which allow us to fly outside of our
solar system. At that point, the Vulcans take an interest in
humanity and make first contact.
This archetypal theme is also reflected in the New
Te
s
t
a
me
nt
’
sBook of Revelations with the New Jerusalem4
symbol of the city that comes down from the heavens to earth.
This symbol is the archetype or morphic field of the
community humanity will fully collapse into the particle of
experience. It will be heaven on Earth. We will someday
replace our current world morphic field with the intended and
perfected morphic field of the City of Peace.
Final Conclusions
I do not believe we have to have a war of all against
all. I believe we can choose a different path. Yet, that path will
have to be one of cooperation and sharing of resources on all
levels. The choice is ours; it always has been. I believe there is
a Divine Plan and we are part of it, but we must choose it. We
can create heaven or we can create hell. There is no one else to
blame but us.
Quantum Physics & The Holy Grail - 152 Therefore, I call heaven and earth to record this day
against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing
and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed
may live.5
