Science And Spirituality Joining In The Search For God

CERN’s LHC (Large Hadron Collider) was launched today in a quest to look for God. Well they don’t exactly use those words to describe this monumental project, I do. This project began on paper over 20 years ago with construction starting in 1996. It was completed and launched successfully today. What does this have to do with new age spirituality you ask? This project is where science and spirituality will once again come back together as one.

CERN which is acronym for it’s French name of Conseil Europeen Pour Recherche Nuclear or European Organization For Nuclear Research. It began in 1954 consisting of physicists from 20 European countries but has since become a worldwide collaboration. It’s major focus of research is nuclear physics. One of many notable results of this collaboration has been the Internet which was designed by Tim Berners-Lee, a CERN scientist, who created it out of the need for information sharing between scientists.

In simplified terms the LHC is the a giant scientific experiment that is basically trying to recreate the conditions of the universe just after the big bang. They are sending these hadrons or particles in opposite directions to have them collide with each other. The resulting effect is where they hope to discover the answers to the origins and workings of the universe.

In the last 150 or so years the world has adopted science as the new trusted source for determining what’s real. Science works on the premise that if it can’t be seen and reproduced in a lab, than it’s not real. We have come to rely on science as the ultimate truth supplier. Science knows that there are unseen elements like magnetism, gravity and so called dark-energy where the effects can be measured, but not seen. They also know that most of the universe is made up of this unseen energy.

Science has known that there is some kind of invisible force field that holds everything together. It is called the “Higgs field” along with the “Higgs boson” named by Peter Higgs who formulated this explanation of the missing unseen item. It is also called the “God particle.”

They are also looking for hidden dimensions to help explain concepts like the weakness of gravity and do particles enter these hidden dimensions only to reappear. Sounds woo-woo to me.

Spirituality is based on the belief in things that are unseen. Truths that are taken on faith alone. In other words, blindly. Unscientifically proven to be real.

One of new age spirituality’s basic concepts is that everything in the universe is connected by an invisible web. Another is that there is more to our reality than the 3D world that we can see. That there are more dimensions that are layered on top. Dimensions, where there are forces at work that determine our experience in the physical world. That we can connect and interact with these unseen dimensions to alter the events of our lives. Sounds woo-woo huh? Have you read anything about the LHC or what’s happening in quantum physics lately?

Physicists have been talking about this kind of stuff for some time but has mostly been theory. The LHC is the best chance they have had so far to be able to see these unseen connectors and hidden dimensions. They have made some amazing “guesses” but have many gaps in the overall picture. A lot of physicists have been working their whole careers to have something like the LHC experiment that could either fill in those gaps or send them back to the drawing board.

I know that we are connected. I know that their are more dimensions than the ones we can see. Can I prove it? No. Do I need proof? No. I know that the glue that holds everything in the universe together is spirit or God or the universal energy called love. I know I can interact with the unseen dimensions to affect my physical world. My passion is that the world can see what I see. Know what I know. Feel what I feel. Will science give everyone the proof that we seem to need with this experiment?

Before there was science, there was only faith. We believed in the existence of the unseen without the need for repeatable proof and many still do. If you really listen to science and compare it to new age concepts there is a striking similarity. They are saying the same things but using different words.

I am cheering for the scientists at CERN. I am hoping that they find the answers that they seek. It is time to put science and spirituality together on the same page. It’s time for humanity to get on the same page. I am hoping this experiment will take the woo-woo of science and the woo-woo of new age spirituality and together it will form the final piece that is needed for the awakening that I so passionately desire for all of us.

The first collision will be app. Oct 21/08. Some have predicted that it will be the end of the world. They say recreating the “Big Bang” will destroy the earth. Noticed I said “they.” We won’t hear of any analysis of the data until probably the spring of ‘09.

$140 A Barrel Of Oil - Now That’s A Positive!

June 28, 2008 · Filed Under Humanity · 3 Comments

Right on schedule! Time to wake up. Oil hit $140 US a barrel today. Food prices hitting all time highs and going higher with the price of gas. Hot topics. Attacking the basics. Food has always been a basic. Gas seems to have become a basic. No, I am not going to talk world economics. This site is about how we are creating a new earth. New human behavior. Experiencing a spiritual awakening. The great shift for humanity to the next level of consciousness. What are these massive price increases doing? They are forcing us to examine our priorities. Changing. Evolving. Right on schedule.

I am constantly looking for signs that we are changing. World events such as these topics when examined from my perspective have a deeper purpose. The two basic elements for us to evolve are self-examination and change. Money plays such a huge role in our behavior so with the price of the basics increasing we are examining how we live and what’s important. It doesn’t matter how we bring about the shift, it only matters that we are.

These events are just a piece of the puzzle on our journey to unity consciousness. The return to a simplified life where we are not madly chasing after everything and wanting products that come from thousands of miles away. The whole system of economics, food distribution and energy sources may be at a point where everything changes. We may be forced to change. We have had it pretty good in North America compared to many parts of the world where $6 or $7 gas has been a reality for a while.

We have taken for granted that we can get whatever we want, wherever it is. Jumping in our fossil fueled vehicles and using our hard worked for money to buy stuff. The cycle of working more, to have more money, to buy more things. Stuff that we think will make our lives better or easier or happier. The price of gas and the cost of food are forcing us to examine our lives. This examination is the beginning of a chain reaction to lead us to the ultimate realization that we really “need” very little to enjoy a happy fulfilling human experience. That’s a positive. That’s enlightenment.

Using fossil fuels for energy is the old way. The cost to get the oil along with the affect on the atmosphere from burning it is has been well publicized. There has to be another way. I always look to nature for solutions to any need we may have. Mother earth has it. We just need to trust that it will be provided. There is so much energy in nature that the answers are there for us. Using nature’s sources like the sun, the ocean tides, the wind and the most abundant element in the universe - hydrogen, and if we directed a fraction of the resources that we direct to oil recovery we could and will have all the energy we could ever need. The price and the damaging effects of using oil will also work to speed up the conversion natural re-occurring energy sources. Our planet will become energy enlightened. And that’s a positive.

These changes are all positive. They are pointing us into a path of mass change in human behavior. The change that I have repeatedly discussed on this site. I know. You’re saying this guy’s a wacky, new age, rose colored glassed, flower child that has no grip on reality. He thinks the price of gas at $5 a gallon is positive.

Yep, I do.

Let’s see. If the Mayans were right, and they were enlightened beings, 2012 and it’s 2008. Yes, it’s time to really shake things up. Time to wake up from our 6000 year sleep. If there is such a thing as a schedule, We’re right on it.
