The title of this blog post may cause you to frown, but bear with me.
How many times have you tried to solve a problem or understand a problem by analyzing it or trying to wrap your mind around it? I am sure more than once!
Well, here's an interesting fact: what we see with our physical eyes - and thus comprehend - is merely 2% of what exists in the entire universe. This number is the conclusion of studies done at several universities. So what are the remaining 98%? Basically, we are talking about energy and light, but very fast moving energy. In fact, these frequencies are too high to be registered by our physical senses. Just because we can't see and grasp the high frequencies doesn't mean that these higher dimensions are less real than our dimension. What appears as solid mass or our reality are electrons moving at a lower speed, thus creating the illusion of a physical appearance. This statement has been mathematically verified in 1994, when three quantum physicists by the names of Haisch, Rueda and Puthoff could prove that Einsteins formula e = mc2 in essence doesn't mean that energy has the ability to turn into mass, but that energy is mass. In other words, there is no such thing as solid mass. For further references I can highly recommend Lynne McTaggarts book "The Field".
The presented findings also have immediate implications on our daily lives. Have you ever noticed that for just about any topic we have a perfect solution stored in our mind? Let's say somebody breaks his arm. Immediately, our mind comes up with what seems the perfect solution: the arm has to heal as fast as possible. Here's another example. You are constantly arguing with your husband. Again, your mind goes to work and presents the perfect solution: Your husband / this situation needs to change. I am making these answers up from the top of my head because I want to make an important point. If we go back to the fact that we can merely grasp a good 2% of what is real, then it makes sense that even the perfect solution constructed by our minds couldn't be much more than that. In other words, there are far more possible outcomes (98%) that we can't even think of.
Now, I hope this puts trying to solve issues like the ones mentioned above with your mind into perspective. What if a broken bone doesn't heal or heals much faster as anticipated? What if we could suddenly see that it's not our partners that cause the arguments but our own fears? Or what if something else happened?
In my experience, people tend to be VERY fixed on the outcome of a situation. Some call this being externally controlled. The truth is that this limited perspective literally locks our attention span to the few possible outcomes we can think of. Maybe you can think of two, five or even 100 outcomes, but at best you can grasp 2%. But that's not all. If we focus all of our attention on just these two, five or 100 possible outcomes (< 2%), it's as if the other 98% didn't even exist. Now of course that's not really the case, but if we take a look at what quantum physicists discuss, namely that the universe is a great soup of possibilities and merely our attention turns these possibilities into perceived realities, it becomes clear that being fixed on what the mind perceives as real is very limited.
If however, we stay open to the unlimited possibilities the universe holds for us in every given situation, chances that we recognize more resourceful ones are much higher. A good starting point is to ask yourself the following question the next time you are faced with a situation and prematurely expect a specific outcome: "Can I be 100% sure that the outcome I can think of is right?" Do you feel the spectrum opening up?
