Exploring the threshold of the ‘unified field,’ and knocking at the door
A COLUMN By Frederick Sinclair, picture is Jeffrey Smith,
Last week’s article “Quantum,” introduced us to the extraordinary world of quantum physics and some of its technological applications. This week we turn from the scientific foundations to a more personal question. What might our understanding of consciousness and the quantum realm, have to offer our experience of everyday life?
In Claiming Your Magic, bestselling author Jeffrey M. Smith explores this question through a combination of meditation, consciousness research, and ideas drawn from quantum physics. The book’s subtitle promises “How to Use Quantum Consciousness for Stunning Transformations at Astonishing Speed and to Usher in the Highest Version of Yourself.” He invites readers to consider whether a deeper awareness of consciousness might open new possibilities for personal growth and transformation.
John Gray, a best selling author, describes the book as offering “an extraordinary set of techniques” and “a new operating system “ for engaging a powerful level of consciousness.
Smith’s fascination and exploration of consciousness arose at an early age and continued throughout his youth. After graduating from SUNY Binghampton, he became a Master and teacher of Transcendental Meditation and continued exploring the relationships between awareness, personal development, and healing the human psyche. Later, his moral convictions about the dangers of genetically modified foods led him to devote decades to public education and spurred on worldwide activism on the subject; including writing two best selling books and producing an award winning film on the impact of GMOs.
After decades of advocacy, Smith returned to his early focus on consciousness. He began exploring connections between discoveries in quantum physics and foundational concepts found in ancient spiritual traditions, including the Vedas.
In the book, Smith notices; that as explorations into the quantum realm go deeper (smaller), the ability to observe the energy within sub-atomic particles and or waves increases alarmingly. Observation of the smallest subatomic quantity, that can be measured, encounters a boundary with a field of infinite possibilities and energy. A ‘magical’ place; where, when sheer potential energy leaves that state to form a wave, particle or atom, and it is influenced by intelligence and consciousness. Einstein described it as “Spooky.” That state, of what quantum physicists refer to as the unified field, exists in and sources everything. Smith describes, in Claiming Your Magic, how techniques for the downward refinement (softening), of focus and subtle awareness in consciousness can influence that field and result in a transformation of end results. He summarizes :“When you realize that everything outside of you is created from the quantum, you might have already considered what that means for your body. All your systems, organs, cells, hormones, neurotransmitters, bones, teeth-everything pops out of the field, is the field and yet is your body at the same time.”
Smith lists 23 qualities attributed to the unified field. Composing them into a statement reveals: [The unmanifested total potential of natural law contains all possibilities for the evolution of pure knowledge; while exhibiting infinite creativity and organizing power. When fully awakened, within itself, infinite correlation and perfect orderliness reflect an unbounded perfect balance. The self sufficiency of harmonized self-referral is invincible, immortal, and nourishes integrated simplicity with purifying freedom and bliss.]
This may be a difficult composition to digest, or initially at first, to completely wrap your mind around. Take note of the brackets and set an intention within them, that your power to feel and embrace the qualities of the unified field will increase. Relax, sit back in your mind and allow a gentle consideration, and with each sentence, a softer, and softer awareness; notice and feel the key words and phrases descend below your mind, gently settling into your consciousness. As they approach the unified field, your power to feel those qualities will increase. Don’t think or do anything except take note of that sense or feelings which arise in or outside your body. That’s it you are done. You have knocked on the door. Simply let the unified field perform the magic. This process of influencing the reality that emerges from it can be applied to an unlimited realm of situations.
Note: There are several well described straight forward techniques for placing intention, at the threshold of the unified field, in Jeffrey M. Smith’s book Claiming Your Magic. It is written for and lights the way to interaction with the unified field that exists in everyone and everything. This book and free supporting videos as well as access to deeper training, is available at www.ClaimingYour Magic.com The book is also available through Amazon.
