What a load of shit
The Universe states, I AM THAT I AM. You and the universe are one and the same, the particle is also you and the universe. You are observing yourself,how can you observe yourself without knowing?So reality may already have been determined through quantum consciousness before the act of observing.
Quantum physics is capable of making human mind crazy and delusional with anxiety
What if the way it’s being observed is the way it’s being shown cause that’s the only way it knows how to measure or read light. The way the measure breaks down the light waves is different rather than with the naked eye. It’s reading it in its own language or the only way it knows to read the light. Just like the only way we can measure light with our eye and break it down cause that’s how we’re able too.
So then does a tree make a noise if it falls in the forest and no one hears it??
Photons have consciousness and they know whether you are observing them or not.
This proved the multiverse and how at sub atomic particles something is pre-determining outcomes but when we view it knows it is in ours. We are in Satan's little season for sure and they are powering their world with our emotions while one of us sleeps and all of us are the ones collective consciousness. Thats why no matter the distance if u make a particle do an action while connected to another it will copy that movement or action with no delay. Everything is connected through out all the multiverses at all times.
The double-slit experiment does not prove that reality only exists when a conscious observer looks.
What destroys the superposition is any physical interaction that extracts which-path information — not consciousness. Air molecules, photons, and detectors do this constantly. For anything bigger than a single particle (like the room behind you), this “decoherence” happens in a tiny fraction of a second.
Your glance doesn’t collapse anything — the environment already did it trillions of times over.
This isn’t opinion. Look up “quantum decoherence” — the experiments are clear.
Horrible
The real take away is that God needs to stop skimping on the VRAM
The only possible explanation is that reality and the universe is conscious.
What if all matter is sentient and will behave differently in relation to other things around them. Existential Ripples are where anything on a plane will affect anything else on the same plane regardless of what, where, or why it is there.
THE PHOTONS HIT THE SECOND WALL
I think it’s like this, you exist with limitless possibilities, only when you make a statement that sets a limitation that you become bound to the limitation, for example if you believe you are bad at singing then you truly become bad at it, the universe conspires to validate you, or your brain sets limitations on what facts you can perceive/observe. On a particle level it is the same logic, when you attempt to measure it you collapse it into a limitation, now the particle can only exist in one state, hence the outcome is determined by the observer. What if instead of trying to put things into classical physics terms of choosing only one possibility, we change our perception to thinking in a 3D or 4D space instead of this 2D model, the electron exists in a state of movement “everything, everywhere, all at once”
Couldn't the Lazers used to monitor the lazers be affecting said lazers?
I’m 36 and this single experiment prevents me from being anything other than agnostic. Some shit is still soo beyond us.
How are we observing the unobserved exactly?
What if its the tool or method we are using observe?
It's obviously the measuring device that's altering the experiment
don’t know what’s more misunderstood: Schrödinger’s Cat or the Double Slit Experiment.
The particle does NOT change its behavior.
Here’s the chain of thought most people miss:
Consciousness is self-aware energy.
Consciousness (energy) creates form — not the other way around.
A ton of authors have been saying this for decades: “You create your own reality.” Neville Goddard, Dr. Joseph Murphy, Florence Scovel Shinn, and especially Jane Roberts (Seth) laid it all out.
In the Double Slit, the particle isn’t reacting to the camera. It’s reacting to the framework of the experiment — the scientist’s attention and conscious intent.
No conscious observation → wave (pure probabilities, many possibilities).
Conscious observation → particle (consciousness selects one probability and collapses the wave).
That’s literally how physical events and physical matter manifest. The observer isn’t some passive bystander — their consciousness is an integral part of the experiment. The particle simply follows the rules of consciousness.
This is exactly how you create your own reality too.
Scientists overcomplicate it and miss the point at the same time. The particle the scientist “sees” is the one his own consciousness selected. The other possibilities still exist in parallel/probable systems.
Quantum physicists could make breakthroughs at light speed if they actually read the Seth books, Neville Goddard, Dr Joesph Murphy etc. Life-changing stuff. Highly recommend.
(3169 people already commented… this one might help 😂)
Perhaps an electron can seem to be in two places at once because it is translocating very quickly via an as yet unknown 'reality' and only APPEARS to 'exist' in two places at once? Dunno, just an imaginative guess😊
Never is it explained and proven how they could "fire photons one at a time"
Bad logic. You can't say watching it caused anything just because there is a correlation. It may be true. But you still show why.
This video is worded the wrong way and leaves a lot of room for the imagination.
So basically life just gaslights you. It's doing one thing when you're not looking and pretending to do another thing only when you're looking at it. Thats like, "oh the boss is coming, back to work". Life is one big gaslit situation.
So reality isn't what it is
Particles don’t literally “decide” to change just because a human is watching them.
What’s proven is this:
Yes, their behavior changes when a measurement is made.
Here’s the simple reason why:
1. What “observing” really means
In physics, “observing” = interacting with the particle
(example: shining light on it, hitting it with a detector, etc.)
That interaction disturbs the particle.
2. Before measurement
A particle (like an electron or photon) acts like a wave spread out in many places at once.
3. During measurement
When you try to measure it, you force it into one definite state
→ it behaves like a single particle at one spot
4. Why behavior changes
Because:
Measuring requires energy or contact (like light hitting it)
That interaction changes its state
Bottom line
Particles change behavior because measurement physically interferes with them, not because of human awareness.
Cat in the box.
I watched many videos talking about the double slit experiment…. My opinion is that our understanding may be different from the reality… (things may be not as we understand)
Could the measuring tools be producing waves that throw off the behavior of the photons? like electronic waves? idk im not very smart but my first thought was it could not about the act of observation, rather the mechanics of the technology used. please correct me i dont fully grasp this concept.
Einstein is more reasonable…
Just imagine ur in the bathroom and someone is watching u on a monitor(cuz u exist in a simulation)… Thats too creepy
That is weird and creepy 1:17
Poor photons, have high cortisol
best video on internet which fully describe the doubt
Wrong. That is not proof that this is a simulation. Sheesh.
