Even moreso if you consider that the experiment shows only a flat, 2d slice of what is in truth a 3d projection radiating outward from the source of the sound. So the arrays that appear to be lines and circles actually represent boundaries of invisible shapes. Kind of like an MRI slice.juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15975754287030568726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8580258.post-7578741271217469962013-06-10T18:43:20.499-07:002013-06-10T18:43:20.499-07:00God is certainly manifesting something.God is certainly manifesting <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=wvJAgrUBF4w#!" rel="nofollow">something</a>.tedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07354048695798015131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8580258.post-36227878847563934752013-06-10T16:27:14.223-07:002013-06-10T16:27:14.223-07:00Why did God create anything?

The lover must have his beloved, and since God IS love it was a necessity that He chose to embrace...well, Schuon says it much better than I in 'Survey of Metaphysics and Esoterism'.

The Zen masters say there is nothing to gain or lose, so relax and love.<br /><br />Easy to say, hard to live by...because human nature being what it is. <br /><br />It is a funny thing we are caught up in. <br /><br />If you were God, why manifest anything at all? Why go to the trouble? It must be more interesting than not manifesting.<br /><br />Or God may feel some other impulsion to manifest.<br /><br />It actually doesn't matter. Tune in, turn on, and show love.

I was about to panic but as I walked through the door into our ransacked home this thought came to me, 'Kurt, you have lost none of your treasure.' Then panic fled and I had peace inside the pain.<br /><br />The life we have in Him is the only real life there is to be had. And as it grows in us hope grows, too:<br />"God did this so that, by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the hope set before us may be greatly encouraged. We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure."

While the child was alive, you fasted and wept, but now that the child is dead, you get up and eat!”<br /><br />22 He answered, “While the child was still alive, I fasted and wept. I thought, ‘Who knows? The Lord may be gracious to me and let the child live.’ 23 But now that he is dead, why should I go on fasting? Can I bring him back again? I will go to him, but he will not return to me.”</i><br /><br />"I will go to him..." <br />Everything will be alright, in the end.<br /><br />***<br /><br />It seems like <a href="http://funglejungle.blogspot.com/2013/06/is-god-in-everything.html" rel="nofollow">Mushroom's post</a> today is relevant, as well.juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15975754287030568726noreply@blogger.com
