The term PAREIDOLIA refers to the tendency of humans to perceive a face-like structure in an inanimate, inorganic stone. The human brain recognizes faces, indicating how our brains are hard-wired for survival. Face perception includes recognizing who the face belongs to, as well as knowing if the face is happy or sad; safe or threatening. It was wiser for our ancestors to assume they saw a face, even where there was none.
Often seen as something that is separate from science spirituality answers questions about the unseen aspects of our universe. The subatomic world of quantum physics, where particles behave in strange and unpredictable ways, has brought new evidence that science and spirituality are complementary. Albert Einstein, the genius theoretical physicist, was neither atheist nor agnostic, and believed that the most beautiful thing to be experienced is the mysterious…the source of all true art and science. Einstein was quoted as saying “The important thing is never to stop questioning. One cannot help but be in awe when contemplating the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality.”
Both spirituality and science are ways of understanding and exploring the world around us. They involve seeking knowledge and can be used to help us make sense of our lives, our relationship to one another and our relationship to the universe. Together, science and spirituality invite us to challenge our perception of what we are…an invisible energy force living in a physical, 3D body made of matter, with form.
Knowing that our minds permeate the world at every level, creating and understanding the nature of reality is known as quantum animism.
Since everything in the world is on a quantum system and consciousness is an integral part of the physical world, then everything must be conscious at that level. Every natural system has an inner life, a conscious center, from which it directs and observes its own action. If the world is truly quantum animated, then there is an immense amount of invisible inner experience going on all around us that is presently inaccessible to humans.
Nothing that exists is truly "inanimate". Everything is composed of energy, and it is in a constant state of moving, vibrating, spinning, acting, reacting and changing to everything that goes on around it. Quantum Physicist Nick Herbert believes there are worlds made up of strangely intelligent minds that silently surround and inter-penetrate our own modes of awareness. Energy can be perceived as being almost lifelike and conscious at the quantum level.
As our primitive ancestors believed, it is possible that we live in a fully animate world where spirits are present in all things that exist. Animism states that all material phenomena have agency and soul or sentience. Not only humans but also animals, plants, rocks, geographic features such as mountains or rivers, lakes, moons, planets, other entities of the natural world and even stars like our own Sun all possess a distinct spiritual essence. Everything is animate down to its core, animated by a conscious energy or life force. Inanimate objects or things simply do not exist. Even words and true names have a secret life.
ALL of existence is the expression of the metaphysical, and material objects are the spirit of the universe manifesting itself, with a specific focus on the immaterial soul.
So! If you see a face or recognize a spirit emanating from a Native California Stone, you are not alone. You may love the stone simply for the beauty, or you may choose to love the stone because of the energy flow between the two of you.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery, author of The Little Prince, reveals his secret by teaching us that "what is essential is invisible to the eye."
You must believe it to feel it.
