Since the famous equation, E=mc2, put forth by Einstein, matter and energy have been forever linked. But there is much more about matter, energy and their inter-relationships.

The Force That BindsThroughout human history there has existed the spiritual concept that humankind and the Universe are interconnected by an omnipresent, all-pervasive sea of energy that permeates all things, and is manifest in all phenomena. This force has been known by many names such as ch'i or qi (Taoism), prana (Yoga), mana (Oceanic), and more. Many kinds of alternative therapies or energy medicines are based upon a belief that health is determined by the flow of this energy and that this energy can be controlled to affect our environment. Yet this force has been relegated to the realms of the metaphysical, at least until now. “Use the Force, Luke!” ~Star Wars – Episode IV |

 Richard Feyman The famous quantum physicist Richard Feynman once said that anyone who thought he understood quantum physics, did not understand it enough to understand that he did not actually understand it. Quantum theory is the theoretical basis in modern physics that attempts to explain the nature of matter and energy on the atomic and subatomic levels. As one moves from the macroscopic world towards the quantum world, the laws that govern matter and energy begin to fail. Thus classical physics falls short of actually being able to describe particles and their interactions at the quantum level. But what are these particles? |

Past research has suggested that most living things release
light, including animals as well as plants, but in an article published on
September 6th by the Discovery Channel, experiments are now proving that human
hands actually glow.
In a study conducted by
Mitsuo Hiramatsu at the Central Research Laboratory at Hamamatsu Photonics in Japan, it was
discovered that all parts of the hands release light (or photons), with the
fingernails releasing the most amount.
