Kabbalah & Physics: The Amazing Parallels!

In this interview, Natalia Vorontsova discusses consciousness and science from the perspective of Kabbalistic Panpsychism with Prof. Dr. Hyman Schipper. The parallels between quantum physics and the ancient Kabbalah are astonishing. Having studied the Kabbalah for many years, Dr Schipper also explains how this knowledge is applicable to many areas of thought and how it has impacted his life. It’s a frank and heart-warming conversation.

How can you climb the tree of life if there is interinclusion?

I thank you. I think, may be i am wrong, that the Kabala is pure physik and it is in the Alphabet itself. There is the code descripted. In the beginning was the word. The Thora, from that little that i catched, tells about the creation. First the word and then the light in frequence. I like this description very much. It seems to me that this leaded to a holografic universe. That reminds me of an analog description in the indian veda as a holografic world and that fits perfect in the nowadays physics.

Don’t you know? The soul is to the spiritual, what the fingerprint is to the physical.

The man explains and the woman listens to the explanation. Start thinking independently.

isn’t the Sephirot a 2D projection of thd 4D cube? (also called tesseract or Meratron’s cube)

You're onto something significant – check out all mysticism – even shamanism – as this is the veritable search – for meaning and truth – that all humans have – and that certain people may be particularly talents – for.
Fare thee well – in life's journey.

So if you see it as dual aspect monism then you enjoy Chris Langan’s CTMU (cognitive theoretic model of the universe)

pause video @00:13 and again @00:15 and again @00:16 and IF IF IF you do NOT see the swirly twirly four-fold swastika as you zoom into the Mandelbrot set … you are one blind Kabblalist … it can be shown to anybody with an open heart and open mind who has put WW2 crimes against humanity into its proper perspective that the '12,000+ year old 2D CHIRAL swastika' forms the foundation upon which the entire Abrahamic religions are based on. ALL life is CHIRAL.

@ Dr Schipper, what book of yours do you recomend reading for a beginner in Kabbalah in this version that you explain in this video?

I really liked this conversation, but when he gets to the issue of ontic paradoxes in physics, it's not accurate to say that light IS a particle and a wave, simultaneously, in any meaningful sense. No physicist would tell you that's the right way of thinking about it or describing it, Dr. Schipper is a little bit out of his wheelhouse on that point.
A photon is an excitation of a field which seems to sometimes behave in the way you'd expect a particle to and sometimes in the way you'd expect a wave to, under predictable circumstances. A photon never ever ever does something in a way that is partly how a wave would do it, and partly how a particle would do it, at the same time. That's why it's called "wave-particle DUALITY" and not "wave-particle paradoxical unity" or whatever other terminology.
So I think that's an important distinction to make, because current understanding of QM still totally allows for pilot wave/hidden variable theories. There's no necessity of accepting that the photon behaves "paradoxically" because of some paradoxical quality fundamental to itself.
To me, pilot wave fits even better with the Kabbalah, because the pilot wave would be Keter. It's "real" and "imminent", but yet is behind a veil (the variables are "hidden") and cannot be observed directly. Its existence can only be known of indirectly by the influence that it has on existence. Further, the theory has a clear explanation and mechanism for how actions in the material world feed back and affect the pilot wave, in the same way Kaballah outlines how actions can actually affect the spiritual world above, it's not a one way street.
On the other hand, if you go along with the Copenhagen interpretation, like Dr. Schipper seems to by accepting that photons themselves are somehow fundamentally paradoxical, you've got an issue… You cannot avoid having to accept either A) fundamental randomness in the universe or B) the many worlds interpretation.
Neither of these options, to me, align with Kabbalistic teaching whatsoever. The Kabbalah absolutely holds that there is no randomness, so that one is out. And many worlds directly goes against the Kabbalah by invalidating choice, and thereby invalidating the possibility of affecting the spiritual realm and doing Tikkun. If every possible path is followed in some branch of the universe, and all of those paths "affect" God (who must be undivided, not branching), then by necessity NONE of the paths affect God, because they all were always going to happen. Nothing that happens on any branch can possibly affect what WILL happen, because every possibility is going to happen in some branch, regardless.
