Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle: Mutually Contradictory Qualities

(written Feb 23, 2019)

The uncertainty principle shows that one cannot measure the accurate position and momentum of an object at any given point. Take any object, like a car. If a car is driving by, you would not be able to measure the accurate position of the car because the car would be moving even the tiniest fraction of a second, basically since the probability of the position of a car in a single unit varies, you can never know if that position is true. Same thing applies vice versa. The uncertainty principle is derived from the wave-particle duality theory which states that all objects perform like a wave and a particle at the same time. In order for one to measure the position of an object, the object would have to be a particle, or unmoving. However, in order for one to measure the momentum of the same object, it would have to be a wave. Heisenberg’s theory states that you cannot know the position and velocity at the same time because for that to be possible, the object would have to act like a wave and particle at the same time, which brings us back to the wave-particle duality. The theory tries to prove that we all can perform as a particle and wave at the same time, which is a mutually contradictory quality that we will never be able to possess as human beings. Therefore the uncertainty principle applies to us. Krishna, however, is the Supreme Personality and has these mutually contradictory qualities (anima, laghima, prapti, etc.). So, Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle cannot be applied to Krishna.
