In 1950 David Bohm predicted that when an atomic particle is split in two and the spin of one portion of the split particle is altered, the spin of the other portion would also change – instantaneously, regardless of the distance that separated them. Years later Bohm wrote: “It is an inference from the quantum theory that events that are separated in space and that are without possibility of connection through interaction are correlated, in a way that can be shown is incapable of a detailed causal explanation.” This reveals a level of interrelatedness  that defies common notions of cause and effect.

 “Today, scientists are engaged in many experiments to explore the extent to which such interdependence exists at more “macroscopic” levels beyond atomic particles. For example, a recent study has shown that random number generators (RNGs) around the world behaved in highly nonrandom ways on September 11, 2001. RNGs are computer programs that generate numbers that meet statistical conditions for randomness, as required for various research applications. They are shielded from electromagnetics, telecommunications, and all other known forces that could cause systematic biases. In other words, these are computer programs that are supposed to be insulated from all external influences and are tested regularly to assure that this is so.”
However, on September 11 these RNGs, in thirty seven countries around the world, went crazy, starting at 5:00am Eastern Standard Time (US) and reached a height around 11:00am. They conclude that the terror, the love, the heroism, the tragedy that occurred in New York on that day somehow caused this effect. “It is highly unlikely that (known) environmental factors could cause the correlations we observe” and that, barring demonstrations to the contrary, “we are obliged to confront the possibility that the measured correlations may be directly associated with some (as yet poorly understood) aspect of consciousness attendant to global events.”
Bell’s theorem and current research such as the RNG studies suggest an interdependence that extends beyond the “external” world, linking thought, emotion, and measurable phenomena, potentially on even a global scale.

We are one with all that is!

Nothing is separate. All is connected. We do not create community.  We are community.  This is the third of the fundamental laws of the universe. (Interiority, differentiation, community)  Everything we do affects everything else in the universe.  This you know, I’m sure:  that a butterfly landing on a lotus plant in India affects the winds coming off the lake in Chicago. That’s a physical fact., physicists tell us.  Thus, what we need to do is learn to recognize what already is, to honor our interdependence, our connection with every created being.

This interdependence does not lessen our value, does not wipe away our uniqueness.  Rather it enhances it, for the universe counts on the creativity of every created being, and what’s more, God counts on our uniqueness and creativity as well. As Eckhart says: “There where God speaks the creatures, there God is.” And again, “God becomes as creatures express God.”
