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atomic scale, where it is superseded by quantum mechanics, and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 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.
