Introduction to Dennis Gabor and his experiment

This section introduces Dennis Gabor, a physicist who developed an experiment in the 1940s that has had a profound influence on people interested in consciousness and imagination.

Dennis Gabor's Experiment

• Gabor proposed an experiment to replicate the creation of the world as described in Genesis.

• The experiment involved passing light into what is called "chaos," which is a force field of interference patterns of energy patterns crisscrossing each other.

• The formlessness of chaos makes it appear as if we are looking at the beaming of light into this formlessness.

How the Experiment was Conducted

This section explains how Gabor conducted his experiment using a laser beam and photographic plate.

Steps Taken by Gabor

• Gabor shone a laser beam through a specially constructed mirror that sent two beams off at the same time.

• One beam went in a horizontal direction and hit a photographic plate, registering there as an interference pattern of sine waves circulating in this photographic plate. This was called the virginal beam.

• The second beam, called the working beam, went in about a 90-degree angle to the first beam and hit a semi-mirror.

• The working beam was relayed from that silver pot to another mirror that was also half black and half silver.

• The beam from that was relayed to an object (in this case, an apple).

• When it registered on the photographic plate, it itself registered as an interference pattern of energy fields of sine wave movement interlocking with other force fields.

Results of Gabor's Experiment

This section explains what Gabor discovered through his experiment and how it relates to holography.

Holography

• Gabor called this system holography, a graphic representation of the whole.

• What appears was called the hologram.

• The part reflects the whole or contains the whole. This means that any part of the system contains and reflects the wholeness of the system.

• In spiritual terms, we are born as holograms out of that consciousness force field in which it was said, "Let there be light."

• Any one element contains all of it. For imagery and imagination work, any one image would contain all.

Conclusion

This section concludes by summarizing what was learned from Gabor's experiment.

Key Takeaways

• Gabor's experiment has had a profound influence on people interested in consciousness and imagination.

• The experiment involved passing light into chaos, a formless force field of interference patterns of energy patterns crisscrossing each other.

• Through his experiment, Gabor discovered that any part of a system contains and reflects the wholeness of the system.

• We are born as holograms out of that consciousness force field in which it was said, "Let there be light."

The Power of Mental Imagery

In this section, the speaker discusses how mental imagery can help us discover the story of our existence and find answers to our questions.

Mental Imagery as a Sense Organ of Light

• Inner consciousness is formless and can be accessed through mental imagery.

• Mental imagery is a sense organ of light that sends light into the dark.

• The discovered images contain the story of our existence and the answers to ourselves.

Boyd's Experiment and Its Relevance

• Boyd's experiment has shown how we can use and understand the imagery process.

• The experiment has revealed that all the answers to our questions are within ourselves.

• We have found a way to go and find these answers through mental imagery.

• Gabor won the Nobel Prize for this experiment in 1971.
