The rules are many, the pathways numerous, yet the goal is always the same. . . It turns out that this duality has a parallel in quantum physics. In the early years of this century, physicists discovered that entities thought of as particles, like electrons, can also act as waves. And light, considered a wave, can in some experiments act like a barrage of particles. The orthodox interpretation of this strange light is, simultaneously, wave and particle.
Electrons are simultaneously waves and particles.
Which aspect of light one sees, which face an electron turns to a human observer, varies with the circumstances. Light, then, as science has discovered, is both a wave and a particle. What form or type of light is seen alters relative to the situation. I've see this before with adult experiencers, but it is more pronounced with kids, and that is. . .
