Existence on Earth: A Quantum Perspective
Are You Living on Earth?
Not died yet
I exist on the Planet Earth. “Living” is nebulous!
Yeah of course dear.
Bharat.
Thankfully both, and I don't need to hear any religious nonsense!
Im alive, I am so so alive.
At the gross level, we live on earth where as at the subtle level that is at the quantum level, we coexist. At the quantum level there is no matter. Everything is Energy.
Yes, we are part of Earth physically on its surface but gravity controls us. We inhale air, we need water, we need soil to grow plants and trees, and subsequently animals. We need heat energy liberated from Earth, and we are continuously interacting with EM waves. We receive light and have our own people or strangers to make our life smooth. We live on Earth, that is continuously changing, giving us new challenges to enjoy happiness.
Without the full use of the planet, life could not exist! Gravitation, magnetism, plate tectonics, the ozone layer, water, a spinning world, and the Sun - all are crucial components that contribute to the existence we know. Without any one of these, life would have died out long ago or perhaps not even started in the first place. Even the planet's size has allowed life to begin and continue for 3.5 billion years! If the planet were much larger, the strength of the planet's gravity would have kept hydrogen and helium in concentrations that would have prevented life as we know it from occurring. Or if the gravity were just 25% less, life would have died out a long time ago!
Life has needs that can only exist within a special window of opportunity. Once those needs are met, watch out! So without the whole planet, mankind could and would not be here the way I see it...
