Thanks Karl, very well stated.
"The observer effect" from wiki:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Observer_effect_(physics)
In physics, the term observer effect refers to changes that the act of observation will make on the phenomenon being observed. This is often the result of instruments that, by necessity, alter the state of what they measure in some manner. |

Karl, you're definitely on the right track with that stuff.
Etherfish, that's exactly what "to fathom" means. Maybe we need a new word that is the equivalent of "to fathom" but is associated with gnosis or intuition? I think "grok" is an attempt at that FWIW... |

Yes, except the observer doesn't realise that he is actually creating the entire illusion as well as the change that occurs from interference with it. |

May the World remain unfathomable for me forever and ever more. Because the day I presume to have it all figured out and it ceases to be a mystery to me, both in the physical and spiritual realms, then I will know for sure than I am a Lost Soul indeed !!!
