This week we review Chapters 9 through 13 in the book The Grand Biocentric Design – How Life Creates Reality by Robert Lanza, MD and Matej Pavsic with Bob Berman. The authors give us so much to ponder in these next five chapters.

Chapter 9, “Animal Consciousness,” delves into the notion of animal consciousness. It underscores that consciousness isn’t exclusive to humans but extends to animals as well. Animals, like humans, have a rich inner world shaped by their unique perceptions and experiences.  This also includes insects, fish, and all forms of life.  All of these creatures create their own experiences with their consciousness and awareness.  It makes me wonder how many millions of perceptions and creations of life exist on this planet alone.  It is mindboggling.

Moving on to Chapter 10, “Quantum Suicide and the Impossibility of Being Dead,” we look at the concept of quantum immortality. This idea arises from the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics. The thought experiment, known as quantum suicide, suggests that a person might survive deadly situations in alternate universes. Essentially, the chapter gives the suggestion that consciousness might never experience its own end, as it continues to exist in some form across different realities. It challenges our understanding of death, proposing that from the perspective of consciousness, the end might be impossible.  So the question is, “If our consciousness continues to exist, how many lives and experiences do we, as a consciousness, actually have and can we draw on those experiences, past and future?”

Chapter 11, “The Arrow of Time,” speaks to the ideas of the flow of time from the past to the future or can it flow in other ways. It dives into the relationship between time and consciousness, suggesting that our perception of time is influenced by our conscious experience and that it mark the progression of experience. In classic physics, it only moves in one direction, giving us the arrow of time.  But another idea is the block universe theory, which suggests that past, present, and future exist simultaneously but are perceived linearly by conscious beings.  So when we move into dreams or meditation, do we experience it differently, or maybe not at all?

In Chapter 12, “Traveling in a Timeless Universe,” explores the ideas of moving through a universe where time, as we know it, doesn’t exist or where time is not linear.  If you ponder that consciousness shapes our perception of time and space, but our consciousness is not limited by this 3D world, then could theories in physics like the block universe theory, which suggests that past, present, and future all coexist at the same be possible? If time is not linear, the concept of travel changes dramatically. Moving through a timeless universe could mean navigating through different “locations” in time just as we navigate through space. This could involve advanced understanding or manipulation of consciousness to access different points in this timeless framework.  Hmmm, interesting idea.

And finally in Chapter 13, “The Forces of Nature,” we look at the fundamental forces that govern the universe—gravity, electromagnetism, and the strong and weak nuclear forces. How do our perception and measurement of these forces, our observation, influence material reality?

How do these forces interact to create the universe we observe and how does our observation affect them, so life and consciousness are not just influenced by these forces, but are integral to the very fabric of reality in creating the interaction.  So many things to ponder.

So lets ponder together.  Join us, Grandmother Pa’Ris’Ha, me and the other international co-hosts on Quantum Leap Book Club on Law of Attraction Radio Network at https://www.loaradionetwork.com/quantum-leap or on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/thequantumleapbookclub
