Following the author's approach we have a double task. Firstly, let us show by taking a small part of our universe that it (the small part) in itself is holographic. Then we must show that this small part reflects the same characteristics as other parts of the universe, ranging up to the whole. For the layman, this is what holographic means: the whole is reflected in any part or subpart.
We shall firstly show that the learning pattern structure, the basis of skills and physical coordination, is holographic. A physical skill is a series of movements that are coordinated (connected) in space (two or more movements which are simultaneous) and also in time (in sequence but there must be connections in time).
When a sequence of movements is learned, the sub-elements---the muscles/muscle fibres, the tiny parts of the movements, the 'bits' as in a computer, that is, the information---are all cross-referenced. All these trillions of tiny parts must be linked under a single heading, precisely as a president of a company integrates everyone in the company: the executives, the managers, the ground-floor workers. The learning pattern builds up in the same manner from 'ground-floor' to 'managers' to 'executives' to 'president' except that in the learning pattern there are millions of levels (ranks) in the form of this described company hierarchy.
Figure 1 illustrates the similarity to the company organisation. This figure emphasises the spatial connections in the now, whereas Figure 2 shows the temporal relationships. Let us take an example of a golfer. He or she addresses the ball with the club face; then proceeds to swing back and forwards fairly quickly, subsequently striking the ball. All these body positions and movements must be cross-referenced, that is, coordinated under a single 'president' or input control point within the mind. Note that the amateur will not form a single pattern of the swing, and these patterns will have weak links, sometimes causing a jump from one established pattern to another parallel one ('losing the swing'). But for the expert, a single learning pattern will be formed for the complete sequence: from addressing the ball, swinging, to hitting the ball.
The mind senses only one creative thought---the intention of hitting the ball well. The learning-pattern structure's computer-features have taken the input energy of the intention at the 'president' level and distributed it automatically by means of the executives, managers, and ground-floor workers. Whereas the novice has to keep 'filling' in the gaps (managers, executives missing) using conscious creative thought, that is, the application of the intention. This is also why the swing is quite fast in the backswing and not generally pausing before the forward swing---otherwise the limit to how much time activity can be spanned will be reached resulting in the learning pattern, in effect, 'breaking' into two or more learning patterns in series. When the full integration has been developed the learning pattern's configuration is holistic. It must be---the parts of the movements must be linked automatically to execute a pattern of movements performed accurately and at speed. In fact a well-developed learning pattern must set like concrete.
It is necessary here to limit our information of the learning pattern to what is relevant to providing evidence of a holographic universe. The reader may see that the pyramid configuration, the learning pattern or the company organisation, gives a framework which has the potential for holographic application.
Let us now look at the experiential side of the argument. Anyone knows that when we execute skilled movements there is control, yet there is automaticity---the movements must become automatic. But this is a contradiction. It can in fact only be resolved by means of the holographic mechanism. How does a person control every detail of a complex (learned) sequence of movements, such as at a keyboard, but at the same time they can relax the focus of attention, shift it about, think of other things or be highly conscious of all movements. This is extremely significant and demands an explanation. Unfortunately one is so unaware of what's happening here, the mind, including the scientific mind, skips it as not important.
The mind ideates movements and the learning pattern provides the mechanism for the execution of physical movements. The ideation is the input to the learning patterns. By trained observation one will notice that the ideation is synonymous with input and is expressed as the attention. This attention can have countless distributions during a learning sequence. In two whole arm motions as in keyboard performance the attention distribution may shift from one finger, to the wrists, one whole arm, two whole arms (as a unit), both hands, or part of one's finger motion. Any of these states can be focussed on at will, and countless more, without interfering with the flow of the sequence. In fact any of these states, the ideations just stated, act as an input for the learning patterns. How can this be?
In holistic systems (see article on holistic systems), all parts are in resonance or coherence, which quantum regenerates the whole. This means a holistic system can be activated or maintained in operation by resonating with any part of its energies; from the smallest part (bit) to the whole. This is inherently holographic since any 'size' ideation (span/state of attention) can activate or continue the activation of the learning patterns. That is, when executing a learned sequence, attention, say, on one finger will keep the whole going. Realise that current science is completely unfamiliar with an understanding of a harmonic science of which holistic systems play a major role.
To break this down, consider a screen with dots on it. Let these dots be the 'bits' (as in computers) of the learning patterns. The bits are in effect basic storage elements and will store one pulse of energy/information---which can be replenished continually. Now imagine these dots distributed into various patterns or groupings spatially (we are not considering time yet), and let these patterns send a corresponding distribution of pulses to provide physical movements of the body. One pattern for instance might activate several fingers and a wrist, etc. Note that for a learned sequence though there is no isolated pattern. All the dots are basically cross-referenced; let's say for the sake of simplicity all are linked behind the screen for a learned condition.
Now if every dot is interconnected. When we activate dots they activate the whole (behind the screen). This is a slightly weak model for showing the holographic effect but it has the advantage of potentially illustrating the connections in time as we shall see. This whole screen pattern is a spatially frozen one in time---one frame of many frames in a 'footage' for the sequence of movements. It is a quantum state. All tensions in the body whether hands and arms or neck or eyebrow become totally cross-referenced; each tends to activate the others. This is why it is vital to relax the body in general when learning skills and only allow the programme to high-light the relevant tensions (see article on instrumental technique). This means at the 'president' level (behind the screen) the formatting of the programme is one undivided whole---one wave carrying the sublevels within it---and the programme is, as far as possible, relevant to the desired activity.
Now imagine this distribution of bits on the screen switching on and off. It is thus replaced by other frames of dots which may or may not have the same distribution, depending on whether any change has been made in the movements. Thus we have different whole frames of these 'dot' patterns switching on and off. However, there would be no learning unless these frames were connected in time. These frames have information density in space (number of bits/dots per unit space) and information density in time (number of frames per unit time). But these information (space and time) densities are the same since the learning patterns act fourth dimensionally---in spacetime.
What we are leading up to is that the learning patterns act holographically in time, as well as space. We now have to imagine the dots of one frame interconnected to the dots of consecutive frames. The amount of time spanned---number of frames as it 'moves' through time---is governed by the degree of learning or the level of skill. This is called holographic amplification. The holographic 4D learning patterns span space and time and 'move' through time maintaining a holographic continuum, which means the interlinking of movements continues through time, much like we scroll information on a computer screen. The information in the holographic learning pattern is continually being reset (from circuits containing all the information for the whole sequence).
In Figure 2 we might for simplicity consider unit A, B, C, D as providing impulses for finger action, say, one after the other, that is, in time. One has to imagine the temporal triangle superimposed on the spatial triangle but at 90 degrees, now extending in time. We see the interconnection throughout the learning pattern structure ('managers', 'executives' 'president'). This means when, say, a finger action A is made, its accuracy and control is governed and aided by all the other units in the learning pattern. Similarly for B, C, D, etc. In effect, future positions of movements can consolidate the present ones. This is an extraordinary concept but merely the property of holistic systems (see article on holographic control for another angle on this). If the investigator can make the observations indicated here he or she will be convinced that the learning pattern is holographic---and that there is no other way skills could be executed so that there is control and automaticity.
There is much more detailed information on this approach, for example, in the author's book Superhuman of over 25 years ago the similarity to evolution of the human species of how the bits/units of the learning pattern expand---actually multiply (reproduce)---was recognised but it seemed so far-fetched for any reader to believe, it was omitted (it is now fairly common knowledge within the New-Age field). Nevertheless just as these units of information---say, one (group) for one finger motion---'evolve up' the learning pattern pyramid to operate more fingers, etc., like a ground-floor worker is promoted up the company ranking scale---manager, executive, etc.---so collective consciousness of a race operates in similar divided units and evolves/ascends this hierarchy from its own low individuated levels to high integrated levels.
What are the justifications for considering that this mere learning pattern indicates that the whole universe is holographic? When we look at the schematics of the learning patterns, see Figures 1 and 2, we see the hierarchical properties. The lower levels operate within the context of the higher levels. The ground-floor workers function in the context of the managers; the managers in the context of the executives, etc. These levels have the characteristics of fractals (see articles on fractals); groups within groups: repeated similar patterns but with change in dimension. For example, the tree has a fractal structure: trunk to branch, to smaller branches, etc. to twigs; or the human arm: shoulder joint, elbow joint, wrist, and fingers. Furthermore, on a larger scale we have planets, stars, galaxies, clusters of galaxies, superclusters of galaxies, universe, these are all self-similar patterns on different dimensional scales.
We must allow for the fact that science has only a 'surface' or 3D interpretation of entities of the universe. A planet's energy is in the form of a vortex and has an oscillation as large as the planet---it has wholeness in its own right, apart from the molecules that make up its physical structure. Similarly a star encompasses its whole solar system, as an undivided whole, a vortex; and so on. Even atomic systems will be found to be compatible with the macro-configurations described above. The atom functions on wave mechanics; similarly it will be discovered that the solar system likewise operates on the same wave principles. These are all correspondences on different dimensional levels.
We are familiar with the philosophical statement, 'As above, so below' which is based on the axiom of Hermeticism, 'What is here is everywhere; What is not here is nowhere'. This again is the holographic property. Let us quote some leading physicists, philosophers and science writers:
Ouspensky, in his book A New Model of the Universe, states that everything is everywhere and always. Physicist John Wheeler of Princeton states that the geometrodynamical quantum foam of superspace represents a superhologram of the universe, and physicist Jack Sarfatti's interpretation of this quantum superspace is that the wormholes connect all parts of the universe directly to every other part. Leading physicist David Bohm stresses quantum interconnectedness and unbroken wholeness. Charles Muses and Arthur Young refer to objects as superhologram images. Science writer Michael Talbot reiterates that thought processes are holographic in that all thoughts are infinitely cross-referenced with all other thoughts. Physicist Keith Floyd states that holographic models of consciousness make such brain processes as memory, perception, and imaging clearly explainable. Science writer Fritjof Capra speaks of the universe as a hologram, in which each part determines the whole.
We will now introduce a completely unfamiliar law of physics which is inherent in every energy process. This has been given in the author's other articles. It is the intrinsic relationship between integration and differentiation. Wholes inherently contain parts. When the relationship between parts and whole is noncoherent---such as a motor car---the whole is equal to the sum of the parts (3D logic). Clearly there is no holographic relationship in this case---it is a linear one-line relation. If, however, the parts are coherent (as in harmonic and benevolent technologies), the whole is greater than the sum of the parts---which is a property of life and all natural entities of the universe. The relationship now becomes nonlinear/hierarchical as demonstrated by the company organisation model given here. The special relation integration/differentiation now applies. The integration thus means the parts are coherent (common frequencies in phase).
With this relationship, the greater the integration, the greater the differentiation. For example, one strives to learn independence of finger action in skills, such as piano technique, but one does not realise that to achieve independence one must develop dependence, meaning integration of greater numbers of movements spanned by the learning patterns as one whole. This also contains the true definition of skill/technique---see other articles.
If a society was operating with a proper relationship of these variables, satisfying the integration/differentiation principle, because of the greater harmony of the whole there would be greater recognition of individual rights (differentiation). In general, our perceptions have greater sensitivity for the parts (any variation, irregularities, errors) when the whole is focussed upon. Psychologists have done experiments which indicate this but haven't known why or what they meant.
The apparent reason why focus on the whole gives more information about any part within the whole, than focus upon that part, is because the whole is a larger quantum state than a part and is an oscillation of higher frequency. The whole represents a higher-order configuration; information rate and information density automatically have to be greater---this is also higher intelligence. As an example, science will eventually establish that a solar system is a whole quantum state oscillation, and is of higher frequency than the quantum oscillations of the planets (the parts).
The fractal nature of the world is well established. We know that fractals are self-similar patterns on different dimensional scales. This is clearly a property of the holograph produced from the hologram photographic plate. The author, in the articleFree Will and Fractals, shows also that consciousness could be analysed in terms of fractals, tying in with our other approach of relating consciousness to the learning pattern and in turn with its holographic character. Thus consciousness and freewill are inherently holographic. But why? See article The Source of Fractals. To express in energy form, in the most efficient manner, the basic unmanifest of no space or time, those energies will distribute so that the infinite potential parts separate out, covering small to large to the whole (every state), forming a hierarchy with smallest parts (lowest frequencies) at the 'bottom', rising to the whole at the 'top', and all parts are interlinked and can thus access the others but through the rules/physics of the dimensional levels.
Thus the whole is reflected in its parts and we have a holographic property. The greater the strength of the whole (meaning unity) the greater the strength of the part or individual---more energy, frequency, understanding, is fed to that part. Each part is as strong as its whole is operating efficiently.
As a very brief piece of evidence for those readers who recognise valuable transmissions of information from extraterrestrials is that we are told Earth has a blueprint, that is, it has codes with correspondences to human DNA. These codes are stored in the planet's grid system. This is of course an area which our orthodox science knows nothing about. Thus if the grid codes are changed (or mutated), this informational change will transfer to all living DNA on the planet (similarly the reverse flow will also work).
The universe is holographic fractally (as opposed to infinitely holographic), for example, the levels, planet, solar system, galaxy, are fractal levels similar to the relationship of wrist, elbow, and shoulder. However, note that these levels are 'selected' discrete manifest structures, whereas in the background would be a virtual fine holographic gradient, as is demonstrated if we cut up a hologram photographic plate into increasing smaller parts---all parts manifest the whole image. What is this holographic background? It would be the true nature of unity. Unity, beyond spacetime, must be intrinsically holographic, covering the complete virtual state gradient (see article on unity in the new educational series).
THE WAVE FUNCTION IS REAL: THE HOLOGRAPHIC
QUANTUM MODEL
In quantum physics the wave function (denoted by the Greek psi symbol) is sometimes referred to as mathematical fiction. When Schrodinger developed his famous wave equation, it was a puzzle as to what psi really represented. It was concluded that the wave function depicted probabilities---and not energy.
Here we shall be using the wave function to mean a packet of vibrations as in current quantum mechanics but that in our case we envision everything imaginable in the universe as made up of waves. Any specific thing whatsoever is not just represented by, but is a group of oscillations given by sine waves. These groups of sine waves representing all phenomena, such as a particle, an atom, planet, galaxy, objects, a thought, word, concepts or ideas, mind, etc. may be immensely complex, comprising waves in fractal groups extending into higher dimensions, in which their phase relationship is of key importance. These wave functions are holographic and have a precise geometry. This geometry is information.
Every single wave function is a packet of information. The vibrations of the wave function are energy but also probabilities given by sub-sine wave groupings. The resonant linkages between them will vary in strength giving different probability weighting---no different from the principle of habit patterns. (Learning occurs by mode locking, that is, entraining separate oscillations---as in associating.)
Quantum energy is actually quantum action, that is, energy multiplied by time (as one whole). Thus it would be expected that the wave function was not the physicist's energy E, which is a 3D expression of work done. Quantum action has a thickness in time. It is 4D.
One of the main reasons why the wave function in current quantum physics has to be considered fictional is because it is expressed by the resultant of many sub-wave functions representing probabilities or attributes of entities of the natural world in the form of respective orthogonals. These orthogonals are dimensions and may be great in number. Let's simplify this and refer to the famous 'Schrodinger's cat'.
The cat is hidden in a box and is subject to the possibility of being poisoned; the probability of which is governed by a random generator. We don't know whether the cat is alive or dead until we open the box. The wave function will be the resultant of both probabilities; that for the cat to be dead and that for it to be alive. The Y-axis could represent 'death' and the X-axis 'alive'. The wave function in Schrodinger's equation gives the superposition of these two separate wave functions for being dead and alive. The graph or resultant wave function gives both probabilities simultaneously and holistically. But we know that when we look into the box that the cat will be either dead or alive, not both.
Now let us say the resultant graph (wave function) is, say, closer to the Y-axis. In this case this resultant (in the quantum reality) will 'collapse' onto the Y-axis, and a single probability is considered to have been selected by the observation (Copenhagen Interpretation). The cat is observed dead. The equation does not, however, give the 'collapse'. In real applications of the wave function the procedures can be very complex but always accurate. For example, several particles interacting would each have to be represented by three dimensions, that is, different ones for each particle; for example, nine dimensional axes or orthogonals for three electrons. Thus we see the unreality of the resultant wave function.
Our general holographic wave function should be pictured as made up of sine waves of different frequencies and, in particular, having phase relationships. The wave function is not linear or of a single level but multidimensional and can be envisaged as groups of sine waves within groups displaced along the gradient 3D to 4D, governed by frequency.
This packet of waves and its resultants at different fractal levels (the groups) follows the rules of Fourier analysis. Any resultants of subgroups or the whole resultant can be broken down by resonant waves giving the true nature of quantum reduction from one higher fractal level to a lower one. This process of quantum reduction---resultant waves reducing to lower-dimensional sine waves, a form of Fourier analysis---occurs continuously along with the reverse: quantum regeneration in which separate lower-dimensional sine waves, when correlated, form higher-dimensional resultants---a form of Fourier synthesis (this is how the laser really works). Figure 2, in the article on physical mobility, part II, showing vortices within vortices, is also a wave function, and these articles should preferably be studied before this one.
We know by now that the Newtonian view of the universe does not give an accurate picture. Quantum physics is much nearer the truth. The universe is not made of empty space with objects in it but is more akin to a complex webwork of interconnecting energies: everything conceivable is made up of vibrations, in other words, is a wave function.
When wave functions have 'entangled, there can be an immediate transmission of information from one resonant component to another---distance is no object. This is a feature of current quantum theory and one can see the applications of this principle to many everyday experiences, even to forming a basis for paranormal phenomena; also the ability of animals to read vibrations of energies and acquire information, an ability which escapes us.
Although everything might be considered as a basic energy of consciousness moulded by wave functions, not all objects are holistic or, in other words, are a single or whole wave function. Only natural entities in which the whole is greater than the sum of the parts, such as a planet or cell, are a single resultant sine wave pattern. A car, for example, is a composite of many wave functions (of molecules, etc.).
As a different kind of example, consider coordination of the human body, say, two arms at a keyboard. For a learned sequence, a wave function will be controlling the relationship between all movements, that is, a single wave function at every instant (this instant is smaller the higher the frequency). The sine wave groups within this wave function change their phase angle as motion of arms, etc., continues. This wave function gives the precise geometry of energy-formatting within which the limbs take position in space and time. Obviously this coordinates with the muscular tensions.
In skills we experience within the mind this wave function as the kinesthetic sense. Consciousness or the input senses the information of the wave function. This information is holographically spread in both space and time, holistically. Within the wave function the smaller waves deal with the 3D sharp focus of activity, such as part of one finger movement, but the larger waves span more time enabling one to feel, in the margin of consciousness, the immediate future movements. If this didn't occur one could not make any controlled movements! This means that at any instant one not only senses the present movement and position of a limb, but also the immediate future ones simultaneously in a multidimensional manner (through the regular fractal levels within the wave function).
Realise that every oscillation is a vortex, and two or more vortices in phase will attract to create motion. In skill behaviour the vortices are centred at the joints. One should imagine these vortices as enveloping the limbs---which are executing a skilled sequence---with infinite complexity of vortices within vortices, involving a shifting around as any smaller vortex is precipitated into 3D (quantum reduced) by a larger one---in continuous nonlinear activity.
The geometrical patterning within the wave function from large to small is precisely the same as that of the universe's fractal nature. It must also be the same principle occurring in the amazing genetic processes which we tend to take for granted. We might see from this that the large wave function for our universe would span all time for this universe (and all space) as a unity. But as we come down the levels within the wave function, increasing separation occurs and therefore the manifestation of time and the phenomena of objects and particles, individuals, etc. (as being separate from one another).
Within this wave function the sine waves, in general, vary in size and dimensions (e.g., 3.2D, 3.8D, 4.0D) and vary in phase relationship and frequency. The phase relationship and size/dimension determine the geometry. The frequencies determine the qualities and attributes, such as colour, emotions, and also the degree of integration or fractal level. Remember, anything we can imagine is not just represented by this wave function but is a wave function---a pattern or patterns of vibrations. These are all packets of information.
Note that the information is not associated (as though appended) in the geometrical oscillations in the manner that man's artificial coding systems associate meaning, letters, symbols with computer processes (using the binary system). The information is the geometric intelligence of the wave function's oscillations.
Now how does the mind's 'read' and 'write' processes work in nature? An oscillation or wave can be considered to be a read pulse if it impinges on a wave function and resonates with the wave function or certain components of waves within it. By resonance we mean it occurs as a result of similar frequencies---oscillations in phase. Such a signal resonating with, say, the internal structure of the wave function can act as a key (a principal feature in genetics processes?). Corresponding waves inherent within the resultant oscillation of the wave function are caused to be separated out as in a Fourier analysis. These waves now become active to do work or act as an instruction signal for some other entity. The separated waves may, however, still have complex modulations and they are still wave functions. Different whole wave functions could resonate, or merely their parts.
A 'write' pulse, such as anyone's thoughts, will radiate wave functions to be recorded in the countless vortices of spacetime. Some media store information easier than others. Stone, quartz, bone, and water are considered high in storage capabilities, that is, their own oscillations can easily be modulated by appropriately related signals.
Returning to the example of coordination in skills, a big problem is how a large amount of information can be stored nonlinearly. We might consider for instance the long sequence of complex movements which must be stored for a concert pianist to play a concerto. Scientists have already recognised that these sequences are clearly not stored linearly---this would be extremely inefficient and impractical.
Consider an analogy with computers. Let the harddrive storage have the full memory of the movements to play the concerto. It is all there, all at once. But now we wish to apply this memory, that is download to the temporary memory, RAM, where a portion of the data on the harddrive will now appear on the screen (imagine all of this portion can appear on the screen). We perceive this data, which is immediately available, all at once (on the screen). This corresponds to the learning pattern or wave function. Consciousness grasps within the conscious mind and the margin of consciousness a spread in time of information---the full learning pattern or wave function, all at once. In the computer analogy, as we look at the screen, we can see all the text at once and imagine reading text from the top to the bottom one word at a time. This is the conscious mind playing off one bit in time of the wave function. But as one gets to the end of the learning pattern (the end of the text) the wave function 'moves' along in time (the harddrive loads another page). But to be more accurate with the analogy the change is actually not discrete. The wave function steadily and continuously 'moves' forward (the harddrive is loading steadily all the time as the lines of text are read---the top line disappears and the new bottom line appears). Thus the wave function or learning pattern bridges the dimensional gap between the total memory (the harddrive) and the sharp focus of application, the single movement (or reading of the text). The wave function thus is a transducer of energies. Its holographic properties have enabled it to convert a portion of holistic energy (higher-dimensional) to one bit at a time in our 3D space and time. The higher the skill of the person the greater is this span in time (and space, which is the same as time within the learning pattern)---the computer monitor screen can hold more text. This is a proper definition of skill or instrumental technique---how many movements can be spanned simultaneously with the mind. Everything else falls into place---density of information is higher, coordination is better, speed of movement is easier and faster, etc. Imagine reading the text on the screen faster than the harddrive can load it---you can't of course, and the span of the learning pattern determines the ability.
Thus the wave function as a learning pattern is a mechanism that enables one to translate holistic programs into linear ones within 3D space and time. In a nutshell, the learning pattern is a 4D holographic template that houses programmes and converts nonlinear information into linear information.
Now how is the information for the concerto stored in the 'harddrive'? It is clearly all there, all at once. We say it must be stored cyclically in the periphery of the vortices as alluded to previously. One can picture the information going round in circles indefinitely, the simultaneity of which can be handled with higher dimensions, but to tap it off or access it the learning pattern or wave function must link this level to enable it to be expressed in material reality---actually playing the concerto.
This is a very difficult subject and these articles are very brief. As a final note we might add that an important field of research would be to connect the wave function---the quantum computer---as described here, with the central nervous system, in particular, with muscular activity. We don't exactly know how the field system (of wave functions) links with the muscular actions.
