This is a part of the book titled “Truth of Nature and God – The First Principle, Second Prinicple and the Physics of Consciousness” which is on the board. In view of its importance to the modern world that is edging to a possible Third World War and self destrcution. I am posing it.
*************
The paradox of the cat is an important thought experiment proposed by Erwin Schrödinger, and it lies at the heart of an unresolved riddle in quantum mechanics. I am contemplating Schrödinger’s thought experiment in a different way — as a mirror reflecting the present condition of our world.
Imagine a lion inside a box, able to move only left or right within it, constantly shifting between the two sides. Now imagine a person, who fears the lion, fears it getting out of the box and wants to get rid of the lion. Think the person has gun and he fires a bullet into the box without knowing where the lion is at that moment. Whether the lion is alive or dead remains 50% probable and becomes known only when the box is opened.
Even if a billion shots are fired, each bullet still carries the same probability. The true state of the lion in the box is revealed only when one opens the box and observes it. This is the Schrodinger’s paradox.
Now consider the shooter. His intention is to kill the lion and feel safe, because of the probability he cannot gather the courage to open the box. Instead, he lives in constant fear, exhausting himself by repeatedly firing at the box. This reflects the condition of our world today — where humanity consumes enormous resources in fear-driven conflict, warfare, and destruction, gradually draining itself.
The deeper reality may be understood as follows:
- There are two boxes, both existing inside a third box.
- In each box, there is a lion and a shooter.
- The shooter in each box does not see the lion in his own box; instead, he perceives the lion existing in the opposite box.
- The same is true for the shooter in the other box.
Thus, both continue firing endlessly, unaware that they are harming themselves. This is humanity wounding itself unknowingly.
We can now develop an explanation for the survival of the two lions by introducing another profound reality presented by quantum mechanics — quantum entanglement.
The lion in each box is aware of the shooter, while the shooter is not aware of the lion within his own box. The lions in the two boxes remain connected through an unseen portal and exchange information about where the shooter is likely to fire next. The Lion survives.
Here, we may imagine the shooter as the Mind and the lion as the Heart. This metaphor brings several truths into focus:
- the limitation of the Western approach to knowing Truth, which tends to judge the “other” as an enemy
- the strength of the Eastern approach to knowing Truth — by turning inward, connecting with consciousness or the God-Field within, and transcending the self to realize the Great God-Field that binds duality into a single system
- Through this lens, we can visualize the deeper causes of many global problems:
- growing religious friction and wars waged in the name of God
- increasing greed and exploitation of Nature
- expanding hypocrisy, deception, corruption, and the pursuit of power
- very importantly my stand point that humanity is the least conscious living species on Earth – he lives by his mind, that is prone for control from outside evil minds that emerge in time.
At the same time, we can clearly perceive the solutions:
- a shift from outward fixation to inward awareness and connection with the God-Field (Consciousness)
- a shift from material-centered thinking to life-centered awareness
- the emergence of a society beyond religious domination, awakened to God as the Life-Force within and between all beings
- the need for humanity to awaken to its collective consciousness
- the need to understand the Universal Consciousness or Great God-Field that binds everything into one
When this awakening occurs, the world will transform and enter a Golden Age of a New Time Cycle. At that stage, understanding and deciphering consciousness, intelligence, and creativity at work in Nature and Life becomes not optional, but essential.
