The Experiment That Could Change How You See the World Forever

In episode 6 of The Fire Within, I take you on a journey that bends the very fabric of our understanding of reality. We dive into the Planck scale, what I call the pixel density and refresh rate of the universe, and explore how quantum physics is rewriting the rules of space and time. Imagine discovering that everything you see, touch, and believe to be solid may only exist when it’s observed. Wild, right? Yet experiments like the double-slit and Wheeler's delayed-choice show us just that: reality itself depends on a conscious observer.
But this isn't just about particles and waves. This is about us, our consciousness, and its power to transcend space and time. What does it mean that you can recall the past and envision the future? What if consciousness isn't bound by time at all? I wrestle with these questions, drawing on science, philosophy, and faith to suggest something profound: space-time isn’t fundamental. Consciousness is.
By the end, we’re left asking the big questions. Are we living in a simulation? Is there an ultimate conscious agent AKA God behind it all? This episode is an adventure through the boundaries of science and the metaphysical.
