## Resource

Experiments such as the famous Double Slit Experiment have shown that quantum objects—electrons, atoms, and molecules—exist in multiple states and places at once, known as superposition, until they interact with their environment. At that point, they acquire definite properties and conform to the behavior of classical physics. They become what we know as physical matter. These experiments showed us what Werner Heisenberg described as “something standing in the middle between the idea of an event and the actual event, a strange kind of physical reality just in the middle between possibility and reality.” This reflects the nature of sacrifice. Matter cannot be created or destroyed, in these experiments, it is being transformed. A heated metal filament is sacrificed for the electrons in superposition, ripe to become something new. Sacer means sacred, facere means “to make,” and so Sacrifice means “to make sacred.” Sacrifice is not destruction, it is the transformation from one order of being to another. Incense is sacrificed to become fragrance. Candle wax is sacrificed to become a flame. The seed is sacrificed to become a child. And food is sacrificed to become the body. If you compare modern day science to ancient Esoteric philosophy, they appear to be the same: Energy is conserved; it transforms, but never disappears. - Spirit is eternal; it transmutes through forms. Matter converts to energy and back. - The subtle and the dense are interconvertible. Bound electrons are liberated by heat. - The fixed is volatilized by fire. Superposition contains all possibilities. - The prima materia contains all potential. Measurement collapses to one outcome. - Intention selects manifestation. Thoughts are measured from neurons firing, blood oxygenation, magnetic fields, and metabol…
