Physics And Spirituality

Premasudha wove in laws from physics to help broaden the understanding of the spiritual journey. These laws say that if you shine light into a box, the box will increase in weight although light in itself has no mass. Similarly, our bodies, which scientists say emit light, lose mass/weight at death. This is true even after adjusting for muscle relaxation, breath leaving the lungs, and loss of moisture. In a way, you can say that we are boxes of trapped light. Another law says that energy cannot be destroyed. It can only be transformed into different states. Premasudha described how often people try to destroy what they experience as negative within them. But fighting our negativities just makes them bigger. Just as matter cannot be destroyed but can only alter, we cannot destroy fear, hate, or anger - we can only allow them to be transformed into wisdom and capacity to love. We do this by facing this negativity within and asking the Creator/Amma for help. Speakers: Judy, Michael, Lorna
