These navigational lights help sailors to get their bearings coming into a treacherous channel in the Tamar River estuary. This is no less true for life in general.

I said in the previous picture that the Intentional Camera Movement (ICM) method is a good way to break free from the tyranny of appearances. I use that word tyranny deliberately, because I also happen to believe that while rationality is a good tool, it is next to useless as a way to get our moral and spiritual bearings.

We need to break free. And freedom is the essence of being an individual made in the image and likeness of God.

So I let this image shake a little and thus shake the foundations of what we think we know about life itself (Being). What exactly is this? Quantum physics has shown us clearly that most of what we call matter is in fact empty space (void).

If the whole universe at the beginning of the "Big Bang" was squeezed into a bundle of energy so minutely small as not to be visible under anyone's microscope, then you surely have to question what really is. If it weren't for quantum energy the whole universe would fly apart in the twinkling of an eye. It would be no more. But is that the end of the story?
