Thoughts

The thoughts I think are G-d’s thoughts

#wave_collapse{.tag .is-dark} Using a concept from quantum mechanics, what if the collapse of a wave is what produces a thought. Like grabbing a picture of piece of a field that always exists. In Kabbalistic terminology, this thought field is G-d’s (or rather emanating from Him). We are able to “perceive” in glimpses these thoughts of His. Our thought receptors are always on (even when we sleep — although there is a certain “conscious” set that is off). It is similar to being on space ship (our bodies) that has sensors attached to it, and is thus able to glimpse pieces of the surrounding cosmos through the portals of the porthole and the sensors of the ship itself. From that information, we build up coherent (to our minds) narratives to explain what it is we are experiencing. However, the experience we are having is bounded by the limitations of the husk of the space ship we are enclosed in. In addition, our experience of the reality of the cosmos is separated by this husk, yet knowing that the only true experience we could have of cosmos would be one of death.

From another perspective, one could see this occurrence as holographic. In that, the smallest thought is a fractal image of the largest thought — just as we see in the macrocosmic and microcosmic worlds that encase us. There are transformations — one could say loss of resolution — that occur in the movement from macro to micro. But is expressed in the principle of “as above, so below”.
