Pam Grout's blog this week, "This year's Nobel Prize proves I can render a different reality" was fabulous!

Pam is an icon of the positive thought movement and the author of 20 books including the NY times bestsellers, "E-Squared: 9 Do-it-Yourself Energy Experiments that Prove Your Thoughts Create Your Reality" and "E-Cubed: Nine More Energy Experiments That Prove Manifesting Magic and Miracles Is Your Full-Time Gig."

She recently published, "Thank and Grow Rich : a 30-day Experiment in Shameless Gratitude and Unabashed Joy" and her newest book is " The Course in Miracles Experiment: A Starter Kit for Rewiring Your Mind (and Therefore the World) "

I interviewed her for OpEdNews a few years ago, here: A More Positive Perspective on Elections and Life.

Here is her amazing blog post:

I was super jazzed to learn that the main tenet of my long-time spiritual squeeze (A Course in Miracles) was just awarded the 2022 Nobel Prize for Physics. The three physicists who landed the prize called it "experiments with entangled photons," but to quote the Scientific American headline that announced it, "The Universe is Not Locally Real, and the Physics Nobel Prize Winner Proved It.

What that means is that we, as observers, literally create the world from our minds. In other words, we're not interacting with a fact-based world of material objects, but with our own perceptions. Yes, it appears that objects, our bodies, etc. are real and solid, but John Clauser, Alain Aspect and Anton Zeilinger, the Nobel award-winners, just proved the key supposition of quantum theory: that local realism is false.

This means that, when not observed, material objects are not there. Nothing exists until it is perceived. Like the first lesson of the Course says, "Nothing I see means anything." And it goes on to say that I'm the one that gives everything I see its meaning.

This idea that nothing has a position until its observed has been a prediction of quantum theory for years, but it was so stunning that nobody could believe it to be true. It makes absolutely no sense. Even the scientists making the calculations figured there HAS to be a loophole. The Nobel committee, even though they didn't like this crazy idea that the observer "creates" the "world," finally consented to award the prize after Clauser, Aspect and Zeilinger were able to close every single loophole.

What this means for non-scientists like me is that I literally render the world I see from my own consciousness. The nature of reality is defined by how I choose to look at it.

This is throw-out-the-streamers news because it means that the parody of life I've thus far created can be rewritten. Individual consciousness, profoundly limited by senses, egoic ideas and cultural messaging, can surrender and synchronize with a vastly greater reality. I mean, how cool is that?

We can literally render a different world. We can relinquish our minds, our consciousness, our beliefs to a reality that transcends time and space.
