A Little Quantum Physics Lecture

The more we learn about the nature of the physical universe, the less it looks like a great machine and the more it looks like a great thought. --Sir James Jeans (physicist/mathematician)

Sir James Jeans. I have no idea who this man is/was, but I'm assuming he was considered pretty smart.


So supposedly the statements made in "A Course In Miracles" is pretty much in alignment with what scientists are recently finding out. To sum it up, The Course states that this world was made by our minds and that everything here is an illusion. It's a dream. What are dreams? They're thoughts. What are they made of? Nothing.

And so, scientists tried to find out what makes up everything. (On a side note, my knowledge of science is very limited. I didn't even take Chemistry in high school, so my personal credibility is very limited as well. All that I'm reporting is what I've read recently.) So what did we learn in junior high about matter? What was it made of? Protons, electrons, neutrons? What are those made of? I don't know... quarks, neutrinos, yada yada yada. They kept trying to see what made up these smaller and smaller things. Eventually, they got to a point where they found no matter at all. Instead, they just called it energy. So this is pretty much what makes everything up. "Energy."

Hmmm. If everything is made of energy, then there's no such thing as real matter. Cuz all those cells, atoms, protons, neutrinos are made from nothing-- I mean energy. So what I'm thinking is, there really isn't a computer in front of your face. It's a thought of a computer. A thought of a keyboard, a thought of a chair, a room, a body, a world, a universe that we are seeing.

So if all of what the quantum physicists are saying is true, what do we do? Where do we go from here? The Course says we're really in Heaven (the real world) and we're just dreaming about this place. We've forgotten our true Selves and have forgotten each other in this world. We forgot that we are Love itself and are naturally loving. In order to wake up, we have to forgive everyone and everything for what they didn't really do (cuz it ain't real). We can't exclude anybody from our love, because then it wouldn't be real love.

Class dismissed.

Forgiveness

forgive the "unforgivable"....


Here's something to whet your appetite on The Course (this is what the cool people of A Course in Miracles call it. j/k)...

As you read The Course, you'll notice that it states your main function here is to forgive. What is forgiveness? Here's a couple definitions I found on the internet:

-To excuse for a fault or an offense; pardon.
-To renounce anger or resentment against.

The Course doesn't believe that is true forgiveness. I'm probably jumping way into this for those who have no idea on the background of the book, but true forgiveness as The Course sees it is pretty much recognizing that whatever you thought was done to you, didn't really happen, because this world is just an illusion or dream.

forgive people who you think are stupid...


If you were dreaming, and in your dream, somebody stabbed you, did they really do that? Or did you do that to yourself? There's nobody to really blame. So if you really see it as nothing happened, what's there to be mad or hurt about? I know it seems hard or impossible to think that way, but I've been making progress on this and I know it's very possible.

forgive the people that let this happen...


We've just been accustomed to thinking we have to get mad and get back at somebody cuz they threatened our well-being. For more about The Course's defintion of forgiveness, go here. I'm not the best at describing things.

Even Shaq needs forgiveness too...

Intro...

I haven't thought of a proper introduction for this blog. I just wanted to say something just to get this thing started. So Klassicks was my website for old school Japanese and European cars. I used to be into that stuff, til I got sick of trying to restore my own car (a Datsun 510). I realized I'm no mechanic and after a few years, I sold the car for way less than I bought it for just to get the headache out of my life.

So now, I plan on using Klassicks as my brand for promoting something totally different from cars. There's this book that I've been reading for over a year called "A Course in Miracles." In that relatively short time, my outlook on things has totally flipped. I don't consider myself an authority on this whatsoever, but I plan on using the inspiration it gives me to post things and create things on this site/blog.

At the moment, I'm too lazy to make a standalone site (and I'm supposed to be a webmaster at work) so it'll just be in a blog format. I'll redesign the background and stuff later. But looks don't matter anyways. Agree? Or not.

So hopefully this blog will hit home with some people. I know it's not for all people, or maybe even most people at the moment. You can't force anybody to do or think in any way as God gave us free will. Regardless if it's for you or not, I'm interested in hearing your comments. Peace.
