Subject: THE POWER OF HUMAN CONSCIOUSNESS

THE POWER OF HUMAN CONSCIOUSNESS

Jews today are in an enviable position; it is far easier for us to accept the proposition that prayer can change the world as plausible than it must have been for Jews of the past. Science rejected such a proposition as logically absurd through most of recorded history but today it is actually conservative physics. The latest scientific theories integrate the power of human consciousness to define reality as an essential component of their view of reality.

Eminent physicists engaged in the study of quantum mechanics have actually demonstrated the truth of this proposition experimentally. One major school of physicists maintains that what we observe as reality is determined solely by human consciousness. [The Copenhagen school] Human consciousness is required to "measure" the quantum state, and eliminate the equal possibility of infinite alternative realities. The startling fact that physics and metaphysics are rapidly converging provides dramatic corroboration to the thesis that God consulted the Torah when He created the universe advanced long ago by the Kabbala [Zohar, Vol 1,5a]. At any rate, this physical theory provides a very satisfactory explanation of the way our prayers operate. Our prayers 'measure' the quantum state; by praying we choose one particular reality out of an infinite number of alternate possibilities just as the physicists maintain. Prayer not only reconnects the universe to God; it accomplishes the re-connection in terms of the things we pray for. Out of infinite alternative possible universes, it is the universe that contains the answer to our prayers that emerges as the 'measured' quantum reality.
