I read John Gribbin's book on quantum physics, In Search of Schrödinger's Cat. Towards the end, he seriously entertains as a live option the notion that we brought the universe into existence by observing it. -- Micah Newman
Here at last
Is the secret
Of our unfolding!
We are made
Of what we make,
We are
Both paper
And crease --
An organic origami,
An evanescent Escher,
Emergent from Mind --
But whose?
We are
To procreate
And co-create:
We make others
(With others)
Even as we
Make ourselves
(With no other,
Other than
The Other
That is All)!
We spiral around
This empty center,
Making a double-helix
Of Self and No-Self,
Until, at last,
We are self-less.
Having made
That which we observe,
We observe
What we have made,
And in this Sabbath moment,
Our creation --
Our soul --
Is made to midwife itself
Into miraculous Being,
And become
All, and more than all:
Which is to say,
Complete.

Lovely. Schrödinger only wishes that's what he meant (if the dead can wish).
I wonder if he thinks differently now?
Mr. Gobley,
I slogged some on this subject. I do write with a 'Bit' more intensity at times...Ha! And this was one of them.
