Physicist Wins Religion Prize

…d'Espagnat "has constructed a coherent body of work which shows why it is credible that the human mind is capable of perceiving deeper realities."

I can't help but wonder what might happen when some "critical mass" of physicists get clear on the concept, and share it more with the masses...
-- But then, I guess they have! Who hasn't seen "What The Bleep..."?

There is, of course, a whole lot of supporting stuff to be explored, for those who would...
Here's a good toe into the door:

"... d'Espagnat also tends to believe that the reality assumption is incorrect. Thus he wrote: "The doctrine that the world is made up of objects whose existence is independent of human consciousness turns out to be in conflict with quantum mechanics and with facts established by experiment."

The universe gives birth to communicating participators. Communicating participators give meaning to the universe … With such a concept goes the endless series of receding reflections one sees in a pair of facing mirrors.”

"Unity can only be manifested by the Binary. Unity itself and the idea of Unity are already two."

(Look up "Synchronicity")!
