Torah and Science - 3 - Kabbalah & Quantum Physics

Rabbi Efraim Palvanov

Do Torah teachings and scientific findings really contradict, or can they be reconciled? In Part 3, we explore the very nature of reality and the building blocks of the universe. We also look at a possible scientific theory for the soul and the afterlife.

Topics discussed include wave-particle duality, the "observer effect", string theory, quantum entanglement, the placebo effect, the true meaning of emunah ("faith") and the Jewish mystical view of Creation.

The video excerpt on the "quantum brain" comes from 'Through the Wormhole with Morgan Freeman', Season 2. You can purchase and access the full episode here: https://www.amazon.com/Morgan-Freemans-Through-Wormhole-Season/dp/B00IN8G7OO
