The Ripple Effect – The Heartbeat To Eternity
The Ripple Effect is based on the understanding that we are all connected. These connections stretch like an incredibly interwoven and complicated tapestry. Each of us exists within this tapestry. Thoughts and actions are like stones dropped in a pond and they create ripples that travel outward.
Everything we do and think affects the people in our lives and their reactions in turn affect others. The choices you make have far-reaching consequences. Each of us carries within us the capacity to change the world in small ways for better or worse. We can use the Principles of the Ripple Effect to magnify our actions and their effects.
The Science behind The Ripple Effect
In a nutshell, physics is the study of matter, energy, and the interaction between them. The core theories of physics are classical (or Newtonian) mechanics, electromagnetism, optics, thermodynamics, quantum mechanics and relativity. Within each of these branches, science has developed theories that have been validated through mathematics and experimentation: for instance, Issac Newton’s famous Three Laws of Motion.
These theories have proven to be accurate models of nature within their respected domains. What has puzzled science is that these theories tend to be inaccurate outside of their respected domains.
For instance, classical mechanics correctly describes the motion of objects in everyday experience, but it breaks down at the atomic scale, where it is superseded by quantum mechanics, and at speeds approaching the speed of light, where relativistic effects become important. Since Albert Einstein first proposed an underlying set of rules in which each branch of physics would be an integrated subset, the Unified Field Theory has become the Holy Grail of science.
Some of the most exciting work has been in the field of Quantum Physics. Researchers have long understood that the basic building block of matter, the atom, could be broken down into its basic components: protons, neutrons and electrons. We have come to understand that these components are not absolute, but can be broken down into even smaller particles, called leptons and quarks, which in turn can be broken down even farther. The theory is that when you go down far enough, there is no finite bit of matter, there is only energy. This has been popularized by two recent movies: What the Bleep Do We Know and The Secret. The concept espoused in these movies is that since everything is energy, our thoughts can be used to interact with that energy to effect changes in our environment.
The Ripple Effect is based on the belief that the energy of our intentions, through both thought and action, does ripple out through time and space to effect our environment.
To this, we add two accepted theories of physics: entrainment and wave characteristics. Entrainment is the process by which two vibrating or oscillating systems which would have different periods when operating independently, will lock into phase and operate in synchronicity when they interact with each other. You can demonstrate this yourself by setting two pendulum clocks on a wall together. No matter what the initial timing is, they will eventually swing together.
Wave theory teaches us that, unless acted upon by an external effect, a wave will continue to travel out without a change in its initial amplitude or wavelength. In addition, when two waves intersect each other, the height of the effect is the sum of the heights of the two individual waves.
This means that if we can synchronize our intentions and actions towards a common goal, our independent waves will continue to add to each other as they travel out through the energetic field and the result will be much greater than we can manifest independently.
Our Pebble in the Pond
The Ripple Effect is Humanity Healing’s most important visual statement so far in it is call for all to engage with the 12 Keys of Spiritual Activism in tackling the root causes of suffering and distress in the world.
If you distilled all the writings, all the videos, all the plans of Humanity Healing down to a single concept, it is this: to gather as many hearts as possible, be they individuals or organizations, to help them to beat in synchronicity and together send our actions and intentions out through the connection of our shared humanity to make this world a better place.
The Humanity Healing Foundation and Network is our pebble in the pond.
The goal of the Humanity Healing Foundation is to search out viable and sustainable solutions to some of the challenges facing Humanity and to resolve these through the application of Spiritual Activism.
We are connected.
The Pond is the World,
Your Heart is the Pebble.
Drop a pebble in a still pond and watch the ripple travel out in an ever expanding ring
with every Heartbeat.
