“The Universe is one indivisible, dynamic whole in which energy and matter are so deeply entangled it is impossible to consider them as independent elements.” InspirationalMatterWholeUniverseEnergyImpossibleElementsIndependentIndivisible Book:The Biology of Belief: Unleashing the Power of Consciousness, Matter and Miracles: Easyread Large Edition Source: The Biology of Belief: Unleashing the Power of Consciousness, Matter and Miracles: Easyread Large Edition
“If we make this readjustment to view Homo sapiens as an ultimate in oddball rarity, and life at bacterial grade as the common expression of a universal phenomenon, then we could finally ask the truly fundamental question raised by the prospect of Martian fossils. If life originates as a general property of the material universe under certain conditions (probably often realized), then how much can the basic structure and constitution of life vary from place to independent place?” IfsCertainUniverseAsksViewsCommonConditionsExpressionMaterialsUltimateUniversalConstitutionIndependentFundamentalsStructurePropertyRaisedGradesPhenomenonFossilsVaryHomo SapiensRarityMartiansOddballs Author:Stephen Jay Gould
“If the world is an aggregate of relatively independent regions, then any assumption of universal laws is false and a demand for universal norms tyrannical: only brute force (or seductive deception) can then bend the different moralities so that they fit the prescriptions of a single ethical system. And indeed, the idea of universal laws of nature and society arose in connection with a life-and-death battle: the battle that gave Zeus the power over the Titans and all other gods and thus turned his laws into the laws of the universe.” IfsWorldIdeasDifferentLawUniverseForceFitMoralityBattleDemandConnectionsUniversalIndependentDeceptionAssumptionLife And DeathRegionsEthicalNormLaws Of NatureBrutesPrescriptionsSeductiveZeusBrute ForceUniversal LawsTitans Author:Paul Feyerabend
“The universe does not exist 'out there,' independent of us. We are inescapably involved in bringing about that which appears to be happening. We are not only observers. We are participators. In some strange sense, this is a participatory universe. Physics is no longer satisfied with insights only into particles, fields of force, into geometry, or even into time and space. Today we demand of physics some understanding of existence itself.” DoeTodayScienceUniverseForceUnderstandingSpaceExistenceFieldsStrangeInvolvedDemandHappeningsIndependentInsightPhysicsSatisfiedObservationTime And SpaceObserversParticlesGeometry Author:John P.

“We have reversed the usual classical notion that the independent "elementary parts" of the world are the fundamental reality, and that the various systems are merely particular contingent forms and arrangements of these parts. Rather, we say that inseparable quantum interconnectedness of the whole universe is the fundamental reality, and that relatively independent behaving parts are merely particular and contingent forms within this whole.” WorldWholeRealityFormUniverseParticularIndependentFundamentalsNotionVariousUsualQuantumArrangementsInseparableInterconnectedness Author:David Bohm
