Quantum Computing And The D-Wave

Quantum-Computers-And-The-D-Wave-4-postby Justin Danneman

D-Wave Systems, Inc. is a quantum computing company, based in Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada. D-Wave is the first company in the world to sell quantum computers.

The D-Wave One was built on early prototypes such as D-Wave’s Orion Quantum Computer. The prototype was a 16-qubit quantum annealing processor, demonstrated on February 13, 2007 at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, California. D-Wave demonstrated what they claimed to be a 28-qubit quantum annealing processor on November 12, 2007.  In order to understand the origins of much of the controversy around the D-Wave approach, it is important to note that the origins of the D-Wave approach to quantum computation arose not from the conventional quantum information field, but from experimental condensed matter physics.

On May 11, 2011, D-Wave Systems announced D-Wave One, described as “the world’s first commercially available quantum computer”, operating on a 128-qubit chipset using quantum annealing (a general method for finding the global minimum of a function by a process using quantum fluctuations) to solve optimization problems. In May 2013, a collaboration between NASA, Google and the Universities Space Research Association (USRA) launched a Quantum Artificial Intelligence Lab based on the D-Wave Two 512-qubit quantum computer that would be used for research into machine learning, among other fields of study.

Everything Is Relative ~ Part II

Everything-Is-Relative-Part-II-main-2-postTime is a very confusing concept but it can easily be explained. Time is a agreement by everyone that a revolution of the Earth on its axis equals one day and that the revolution of the earth around the sun equals one year. If you were suddenly moved off planet to a point above the earth then there would be no reference as the sun is shining continuously so there would obviously be no daytime or nighttime. You could still use earth time as a reference but Einstein’s Theory of Relativity would also tell you that even when you returned to earth you would have aged more slowly. But even that too is an illusion and here is why.

Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one. ~ Albert Einstein

What we think of as time is only consciousness or being aware. We interpret data – the information of the outside world like a film strip moving through a projector. It has picture and it has sound and we perceive it as ‘reality’. Each picture in the film strip lines up one after the other giving the illusion of movement and therefore time and space. We get the impression that we are moving forward in time when the only time there is really is the NOW time. What also seems to confirm this is when we are unconscious or asleep or not looking at a clock, we have no conception as to how much time has passed. (more…)

Are You The Universe?

Are-You-The-Universe-main-4-postby Robert Lanza & Bob Berman

Figuring out the nature of the “real world” has obsessed scientists and philosophers for millennia. In the past few decades, however, major puzzles of mainstream science have forced a re-evaluation of the nature of the cosmos. Starting in the 1920’s, scientists found that some experiments’ results totally depended on whether anyone was watching. The observer critically influenced the outcome. Since then, paradoxes accompanying the Big Bang theory (how can an entire universe pop out of nothingness?), and other major, intractable problems of cosmology (e.g. what is this dark energy that seems to be blowing the universe apart) suggest that our models require a seismic shift.

At this pivotal point in science, medical doctor Robert Lanza and I believe a more accurate understanding of the “real world” will require combining astrophysics and biology instead of keeping them separate, and putting observers firmly into the equation. This view is called biocentrism. (more…)

Everything Is Relative

Evertything-Is-Relative-main-4-postRelativity, a theory formulated by Albert Einstein, means that all motion is defined relative to a frame of reference, and that space and time are relative, rather than absolute concepts.

What this means to me is that EVERYTHING IS RELATIVE and that space and time is an illusion because when one is in one space and time doesn’t mean that someone else is in that same space and time. What one sees from one perspective is not the same as what someone else sees from another perspective and isn’t that what life is all about anyway. Maybe what this means is that it is impossible for two people to have the same exact opinion at the same exact time so then what are we all fighting about? One day you might agree with this person, the next day you don’t. One day you might like chocolate ice cream, the next day you don’t. Does that mean that also your same religious viewpoints and/or opinions should also belong to everyone else? No! Of course not. Science proves that everything is relative.

Going back to space and time. Space-time forms the very basis of reality in which we live. We live in space-time. Ask any physicist and he will tell you we operate in a space-time continuum which is essentially a four-dimensional continuum having three spatial coordinates. So by this we could say we are fourth dimensional beings having a third dimensional experience which is exactly what UN.AR.I.U.S. explains in its liturgies. (more…)

Seeing Fractals

Seeing-Fractals-main-4-postby Jason Padgett and Maureen Seaberg

Introduction

No one else sees the world the way Jason Padgett does. Water pours from the faucet in crystalline patterns, numbers call to mind distinct geometric shapes, and intricate fractal patterns emerge from the leaves and branches of trees, revealing the intrinsic mathematical designs hidden in the objects around us.

Jason Padgett working on drawingsAmazingly, Jason wasn’t born this way. Twelve years ago, he was a party-loving jock and a college dropout who’d never made it past pre-algebra. But a violent mugging permanently and profoundly altered the way his brain works, giving him unique gifts. His ability to understand math and physics skyrocketed. He’s now a devoted student and award-winning artist, hand-drawing the stunning geometric patterns he sees everywhere.

Geometric-Pattern-twelve-4-postThe first documented case of acquired savant syndrome with mathematical synesthesia, Jason is a medical marvel. Some researchers see his transformation as proof that every brain possesses stunning abilities only some people are able to consciously access. (more…)

Men of Miracles

Men-of-Miracles-main-2-postby Howard Murphet

Most of us meet with the miraculous and magical in the tales of early childhood, and in those plastic years, before the “shades of the prison house” have begun to close around us, miracles are part of the accepted order. There is no incredibility, for example, in the magic power of Aladdin’s lamp, or in Jack’s beanstalk to the land of the giants, or in Christ walking over the storm-tossed water.

Such stories are not, of course, confined to the folklore and religious scriptures of the western world. The written chronicles of Man in all areas unroll a record of miracles that stretches from Lord Krishna, some 5,000 years ago, down to the present day. The Age of Miracles has always been with us. We read of its rosy morning on the far horizons of ancient Egypt, Chaldea, India and Palestine. And in the old Alexandria of the early Christian Era there were theurgists who at public ceremonies made statues “walk, talk and prophesy”.

In Europe during the Middle Ages the church unfortunately claimed a monopoly of the miraculous, and those who worked outside it had to work in secrecy. Such secular theurgical workers, belonging to the Rosicrucian and other brotherhoods of occult practice, did exist. However, and despite ecclesiastical power and jealousy, some great personalities – adepts like Paracelsus and the Comte de St. Germain – caught the attention of the public, stirring its cupidity, its fears and its suspicions.

Edison vs. Tesla: The Spirit Phone

Edison-vs-Tesla-Spirit-Phone-main-2-postThomas Edison closely followed the alternative physics work of Albert Einstein and Max Planck, convincing him that there was an entire reality unseen by the human eye. This led to the last and least-known of all Edison’s inventions, the spirit phone. His former associate, now bitter rival, Nikola Tesla, was also developing at the same time a similar mysterious device.

Edison’s little-known near-death experience formed his theory that animate life forms don’t die, but rather change the nature of their composition. It is this foundational belief that drove him to proceed with the spirit phone.

Tesla monitored Edison’s paranormal work, with both men racing to create a device that picked up the frequencies of discarnate spirits, what today is called EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomenon).

Both men were way ahead of their time, delving into artificial intelligence and robotics. (more…)

The Electric Universe: Filaments In Space

Electric-Universe-Filaments-In-Space-main-4-postby Tom Findlay

‘Space’ is aptly named because there sure is a lot of it! It is bigger than we can imagine and it is filled throughout with mostly dark mode plasma that is concentrated in regions of various dimensions, constituent elements and densities, all of which have positively and negatively charged regions within and around them.

It is truly hard to imagine the immense power that these vast regions have stored within them, untold numbers of which are millions of light years in size. Over time, these mostly invisible but now detectable super-galactic-sized clouds and more obvious formations of charged matter interact with each other and with regions of neutral matter (dust molecules and other gases) as well. This takes place through electrical and magnetic events that induce current flow within and throughout all their various forms. In turn, the gigantic currents produced generate further magnetic fields, which being dynamic in nature (i.e. continually moving and interacting), go on to induce additional current flow in adjoining regions, sheets and filaments of plasma.

The Magnificence of 3, 6, 9

Magnificence-of-3-6-9-main-4-postBy LifeCoachCode

Nikola Tesla did countless mysterious experiments, but he was a whole other mystery on his own. Almost all genius minds have a certain obsession. Nikola Tesla had a pretty big one!

He was walking around a block repeatedly for three times before entering a building, he would clean his plates with 18 napkins, he lived in hotel rooms only with a number devisable by 3. He would make calculations about things in his immediate environment to make sure the result is devisable by 3 and base his choices upon the results. He would do everything in sets of 3.

Some say he had OCD, some say he was very superstitious.

The Torus – Dynamic Flow Process

The-Torus-main-4-postby Cosmometry

Whereas the Vector Equilibrium represents the ultimate stillness of energy, the Torus shows us how energy moves in its most balanced dynamic flow process. The important thing to understand about the torus is that it represents a process, not just a particular form.Ring Torus

Horn TorusA torus consists of a central axis with a vortex at both ends and a surrounding coherent field. Energy flows in one vortex, through the central axis, out the other vortex, and then wraps around itself to return to the first incoming vortex. The simplest description of its overall form is that of a donut, though it takes many different shapes, depending upon the medium in which it exists. For example, a smoke ring in air or a bubble ring in water are both very donut shaped. And yet an apple or an orange, which are both torus forms, are more overtly spherical. Plants and trees all display the same energy flow process, yet exhibit a wide variety of shapes and sizes. Hurricanes, tornadoes, magnetic fields around planets and stars, and whole galaxies themselves are all toroidal energy systems. Extending this observation of the consistent presence of this flow form into the quantum realm, we can postulate that atomic structures and systems are also made of the same dynamic form. (more…)

How Your Brain Is Like The Cosmic Web

How-Your-Brain-Is-Like-The-Cosmic-Web-main-4-postYour Life’s Memories Could, In Principle, Be Stored in the Universe’s Structure

By Franco Vazza & Alberto Feletti

Christof Koch, a leading researcher on consciousness and the human brain, has famously called the brain “the most complex object in the known universe.” It’s not hard to see why this might be true. With a hundred billion neurons and a hundred trillion connections, the brain is a dizzyingly complex object.

But there are plenty of other complicated objects in the universe. For example, galaxies can group into enormous structures (called clusters, super clusters, and filaments) that stretch for hundreds of millions of light-years. The boundary between these structures and neighboring stretches of empty space called cosmic voids can be extremely complex. Gravity accelerates matter at these boundaries to speeds of thousands of kilometers per second, creating shock waves and turbulence in intergalactic gases. We have predicted that the void-filament boundary is one of the most complex volumes of the universe, as measured by the number of bits of information it takes to describe it. (more…)

Our Cosmic Insignificance

Pale-Blue-Dot-main-2-postby Nick Hughs and Guy Kuhane

Humanity occupies a very small place in an unfathomably vast Universe. Travelling at the speed of light – 671 million miles per you are herehour – it would take us 100,000 years to cross the Milky Way. But we still wouldn’t have gone very far. Our  modest Milky Way galaxy contains 100–400 billion stars. This isn’t very much: according to the latest calculations, the observable universe contains around 300 sextillion stars. By recent estimates, our Milky Way galaxy is just one of 2 trillion galaxies in the observable Universe, and the region of space that they occupy spans at least 90 billion light-years. If you imagine Earth shrunk down to the size of a single grain of sand, and you imagine the size of that grain of sand relative to the entirety of the Sahara Desert, you are still nowhere near to comprehending how infinitesimally small a position we occupy in space. The American astronomer Carl Sagan put the point vividly in 1994 when discussing the famous ‘Pale Blue Dot’ photograph taken by Voyager 1. Our planet, he said, is nothing more than ‘a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam’. Stephen Hawking delivers the news more bluntly. We are, he says, “just a chemical scum on a moderate-sized planet, orbiting round a very average star in the outer suburb of one among a hundred billion galaxies.” (more…)

The Limits Of Science Concerning The Reality Of Consciousness

Limits-of-Science-main-4-postby Science And Non-Duality (SAND)

Quarks in an atom; molecules in a liquid; proteins in a cell; cells in an organism; neurons in a brain; people in a city; grains of sand in a dune; snowflakes in an avalanche; stars in a galaxy: when the many parts of a system interact, behaviors appear in the whole system that weren’t present in the parts themselves. These surprising “emergent” behaviors are what our universe appears to be made of, from the Big Bang, to the unfathomable complexity of Life, to the unimaginable future yet to come.

Biology isn’t applied chemistry. Psychology isn’t applied biology. Every scale, every level of abstraction brings its own universe of phenomena, complexity, questions, hypotheses, exploration and experimentation. The whole is not only greater than the sum of its parts, it is fundamentally different. Analysis and reductionism can only provide limited insights, but never capture the essence of the indescribable. ~ SAND (more…)

What Are Harmonics And Why Does It Matter

Harmonics-main-4-postE=MC2: Einstein proved Energy = Mass and Mass = Energy. That is why we were able to explode the first atomic bomb but it also means that since we are composed of atoms, “we” are also energy. Energy vibrates. It has certain properties. It vibrates at certain frequencies. It attracts and repels other wave forms based on frequency. Waveforms can piggy back other waveforms. These piggybacks can cause distortions giving the waveform a certain IQ which can be infinite in variety.

All this is necessary in understanding how our psychic anatomy functions. Our psychic anatomy is the Kirlian-handspiritual counterpart of our physical, and just like the atoms in our body is composed of energy the psychic anatomy is composed of energy too. This energy body exists at a higher frequency level then the physical body and is as yet undetermined by science since scientists have yet to develop the scientific instrumentation to detect it with perhaps some exceptions like Kirlian photography which can detect some emanations of the aura.

Pineal Gland: Mental Gateway To Other Dimensions

Pineal-Gland-main-2-postThrough the ages it has been known that the pineal is the interface between the higher dimensions and the physical realm. It can be said then to be the gateway between the ego personality, brain and the Divine Mind. It has been termed by metaphysicians such as Descartes and Edgar Cayce as being the ‘Seat of the Soul’. In a very real manner of speaking, the Pineal Gland is a ‘Bio-Stargate’. It is a bridge from physical to non-physical, from duality to higher dimension. It is extremely complex, and is the screen from 3d brain to Infinite Mind.

What Is The Pineal Gland?

pineal-gland twoThe pineal gland is one of the most wondrous parts of our physical bodies. It is also called the epiphysis cerebri, epiphysis, conarium or the “Third Eye.” It is a small endocrine gland in the vertebrate brain. It produces serotonin and melatonin, hormones that affect mood and modulate our wake/sleep patterns and seasonal functions. Its shape resembles a tiny pine cone (hence its name in Latin, pinea, which means “pine cone”), and it is located near the center of the brain, between the two hemispheres, tucked in a groove where the two rounded thalamic bodies join.

Even though this gland is hidden deep inside the brain and is only the size of a pea, it has been an almost fanatical obsession of masters, mystery schools and religions throughout the ages. It was prominent in the writings of Pythagoras, Plato, and Iamblichus, as well as in Egyptian, Tibetan and Roman Catholic Church. It is even mentioned by the Founding Fathers of the USA. (more…)
