Review of “What The Bleep Do We Know”
What the Bleep Do We Know? is a film that is gathering tremendous momentum with people of all ages. It is totally unique in the way it is presented. Part story, part documentary with animation and visual effects thrown in for good measure. The film chronicles a day in the life of a woman photographer portrayed by Marlee Matlin. She, like Alice in Wonderland, is being taken down the rabbit hole by some very interesting characters. Things get curiouser and curiouser as she is introduced to the weird and wacky world of quantum physics.
This particular day in her life takes her from ‘victim’ to ‘creator.’ We are able to observe her reactions, addictions and vast range of emotions through animation and visual effects which very cleverly show the workings of the brain. The basic premise of this movie is how we are co-creators of our own reality. To demonstrate this point, the movie introduces us to fourteen cutting edge scientists and mystics. These advanced thinkers include John Hagelin Ph.D., Dr. Miceal Ledwith, Ramtha and Fred Alan Wolf Ph.D., whose words emphasize that “consciousness creates the material world.”
The physicist Dr. Amit Goswami says ‘When we are not looking there are waves of possibilities, and when we are looking there are particles of experiences. Quantum physics is the physics of possibilities.” We can choose any one of these possibilities and make it into our personal reality, but we are so conditioned most of us don’t believe we can.
In the film, William Tiller Ph.D., explains, “Your consciousness influences others around you. It influences material properties. It influences your future. You are co-creating your future.” The power of the film is that it takes your belief system and shakes it up, turns it upside down, inside out and then throws it right back to make you really think. So the question remains — how far down the rabbit hole do you want to go?
