Thoughts become things? 5. Particle or wave?

Let’s go a little further into the microscopic world and look at the smallest unit or entity of matter.
In classical physics, atoms were considered the smallest unit of matter, but with the development of science and technology, even smaller substances or beings were discovered, and they were named ultrafine particles or quarks. However, it was discovered that those small substances or beings sometimes exist as material and sometimes as non-material. The theoretical academic system for this is called quantum mechanics.

A particle is the smallest unit of matter whose movement, such as position and speed, is predictable. A wave is a non-material substance that is defined as a state of spreading energy whose exact location is unknown. It is a very similar concept to energy, which has been talked about in the East for thousands of years.

Quantum mechanics proves wave-particle duality, that is, the fact that all substances have both particle and wave properties. In classical mechanics, waves and particles were considered to have different properties, and material and non-material were distinguished. However, in quantum mechanics, the two concepts are integrated into one concept. In other words, matter and mind are seen as one. Sometimes a wave becomes a particle, and sometimes a particle becomes a wave, and this changes depending on the will of the observer, that is, the human mind.

Our ancestors said, “All your heart is wholehearted,” “All your heart is with one mind,” “If sincerity is utmost, even the heavens will be moved,” and “All things arise from formless things.” It has been believed that matter and mind, particles, and waves influence each other organically. In the recent century, the West began to prove that this was true under the name of quantum physics.

Quantum Medicine, which has recently been presented as a new alternative to Western medicine, is almost identical to the ego theory of Oriental medicine. The theory is that the human body has an energy field that connects the body and mind. (See picture) This is a concept of treating energy fields that take into account the existence of body and mind at the same time and adjust them, rather than treating people only as machines-like substances. Among them, the most commonly proposed method is acupuncture.

Acupuncture adjusts energy, which is why in some cases, decades-old migraines can be completely cured with just one treatment. In addition, the record of Emperor Naijing, the oldest and highest medical book in Chinese medicine, which states that acupuncture came from the East, proves that acupuncture originally originated in Korea.

Pulse diagnosis, one of the diagnostic tools of oriental medicine, is used by an oriental doctor to measure the yin and yang, heat, front and back, voids, etc. by placing the tips of three fingers on the patient’s wrist. This is a representative method of determining the state of particles or substances through waves. I think this is a case in point. Rather than distinguishing between particles and waves, matter and mind, the ego monism that particles become waves, waves become particles, minds become matter, and matter become minds is now being scientifically proven.
