Unmediated Interaction, Spooky Action Theory, Quantum Teleportation, and the Web of Life

We live in an amazing world... more amazing than we can possibly imagine.

And, we are constantly discovering new dynamics, new interactions, and new phenomenon.

One new discovery that completely revises previous understanding of life is the idea of unmediated interactions.
Until very recently, it was thought that all interactions were the result of a mediator. In other words something would not move unless there was a cause or interaction.

Scientists glimpsed the theoretical possibility that there could be an unmediated interaction but obviously it seemed quite impossible. Einstein called this theoretical phenomenon, the, Spooky Action at a Distance Theory, and did not embrace it as reality. At the time, there was no way to scientifically test the theory so it remained just speculation until recently.

Just a few decades ago, as physicists found ways to test the theory, they did.*

Guess what they discovered?

There is indeed an interaction between two objects separated in space with no mediator.

In other words, two objects, separated in space instantaneously relate to each other with no known or measurable encounter or mediator.

In many ways this is a revolutionary, perhaps a revelatory idea.

It seems likely that everything, EVERYTHING is somehow connected to everything else in the universe.

To put this another way, we are entangled in ways we have yet to discover.

Bringing this to our immediate lives, our behaviors, perhaps even our thoughts may affect everything else that exists.

Contemplating the ramifications of this idea is beyond the ability of my brain, but it does make me careful, conscious, and aware of my life.

While the idea that we are separate, individual, and perhaps isolated, is common, it seems inconsistent with what we are discovering. The worldview that harmful behavior affects only the immediate people involved is becoming obsolete with more understanding of our universe.

Might goodness, in the moment actually transform our world in ways we cannot measure? Might what you are doing this very moment influence something across the planet? And, how might our negativity change the lives of others in our world?

There are many questions resulting from our new understanding.

And so, we take this new reality into our lives and reevaluate how our existence impacts the greater whole. We become mindful that each thought, each behavior, each action may in fact move, alter, influence others in ways of which we are completely unaware.

Ahhh.... there is more to our story than we know.



*To test the theory, physicists separated coupled electrons and measured the spin. While interacting, if one electron spins up the other spins down. What was discovered is that even when separated, the electrons instantaneously altered their spin as if they were interacting, without any form of mediation.
