Spacetime tells matter how to move; matter tells spacetime how to curve.”

Bending Time with Meditation.
Spending time in meditation can feel as if time itself has been suspended. We follow the flow of energy, the ebb and flow of our breath and temporarily become aware of the flow of energy moving through us. But are we really operating in isolation? Are we just one body in a state of relaxation? Or are we recognizing that our consciousness, our awareness is really attached to something larger, a greater “oneness”?
If we look at particles of light, we can demonstrate with the double-slit experiments, that light can behave as both a particle and a wave. Scientists have proven that what you expect and observe can influence outcomes. If you expect light to show up as a particle, it’s a particle. If you expect to see evidence that light behaves as a wave, it’s a wave.
Let’s suppose we take a mental leap and see ourselves as just energy. Now we are more than a relaxing body in meditation, we are connecting with the quantum field. What does that do to our perception and creativity? How does that translate our imagination and visualization to envision a state? Does this energy state influence our perception of the moment of time we are in and of spacetime itself?
But there’s more. Our understanding and definition of a particle has “changed”.
Physicist Frederico Faggin says that our definition of particles as being physical objects is inaccurate. “Particles aren’t objects, they are states of a field” [Be Inspired. Youtube program Top Physicist: Reality is not Physical”.
Everything, including time, is tethered by observation, energy, and communicates to the receiver and the sender as states of a field.
Energy Arrows and Spacetime Reality.
So how does all of this affect your meditation sessions?
If we use visualization and create holographic images that are energy signatures to “try on” like garments, we can create Time Arrows. You can move through time and accelerate your being-ness in this new state as if it were already here, achieved and appreciated.
How you feel in that state, is crucial. If light energy particles are states of a field, it means that time and your feeling in that visualized state are important for “recalibrating ” your spacetime reality. It is an imaginary arrow through time that calls forth energy to feel and simulate that new state.
A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe; a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts, and his feelings as something separate from the rest - a kind of optical delusion of consciousness.
Albert Einstein
If we energize “what we focus on”, why not choose something productive, positive and transformative. Meditation, and more specifically, visualization can be used to simulate states that can help solve complex problems and elevate our state of wellbeing. Choose meditation to explore, adapt and become connected to a higher level of awareness. There are many dreams to create.
"There is a deeper reality where feelings and fields exist. "
Frederico Faggin Physicist.
