Abstract

Famous experiments in quantum physics demonstrate that the way a scientist sets up his experimental apparatus will determine the result that he then measures. And Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle tells us that the questions we ask create the answers that we get. Thus quantum physics tells us we live in a “Participatory Universe” in which we human beings, through the thoughts that we think, and the actions that we take, cocreate reality. We make the world that we live in, and thus we are responsible for the world we have made. And, we have the capacity to make a different or better world simply by changing our thinking and thus the actions that follow from our thoughts. As Harry Truman once said, “There ain’t nobody here but us chickens.” We will be the authors of the post-Covid world.
