Truly these distances, in both time and space, are impossible for our limited minds to encompass. I am curious about how quantum physics complicates the idea of time, really moving us away from linear time into a kind of dream time where all time and space is holographically interconnected--in other words, shamanic time! It seems like a positive step forward that science and spirituality are beginning to harmonize, after so many centuries as strangers. They meet on the magical terrain of deep time, so beautifully depicted in the Webb telescope photos.
Yes, Jennifer, I agree wholeheartedly that science, particularly quantum physicists, are slowly aligning with the knowledge and understanding of shamans from lineages as far back as 10,000 years ago. Did you read about how Mayans drew images of a star cluster (I cannot remember which) that is not visible to the naked eye! That's impressive. I love quantum physics and have taught some of their believes in my shamanic classes. This is all so encouraging, isn't it?
Yes, I think the gradual synthesis of spiritual and scientific insights is THE great advance of our time! That is why I have been following the work of Thomas Berry and his disciple Brian Swimme quite closely...modern mystics who are not afraid to talk about the profound spiritual significance of our new explorations of the cosmos. The James Webb telescope is giving beautiful visuals to these intuitions. Truly we live in a wondrous time!
