A spiritual person who wants to study Mars can be there in seconds because he doesn't have to rely on physical travel. He can travel in spirit. Just as quantum particles can react instantly regardless of distance, the spiritual person can travel in spirit form instantly to any place in the universe. Of course, they may not bother doing so because they are not really interested in what is happening on Mars, or Pluto, or the Horsehead Nebula except as it relates to stimulating spiritual awakening and growth.  The spiritual person is more interested in traveling to, or at least connecting with, spiritual worlds, spiritual dimensions.

    The scientist will probably say that such travel is impossible. You are defying the laws of nature by traveling that fast. But how real are these laws? Since quantum physics has revealed that what most of us continue to think of as solid objects are in fact less solid that a thin morning fog and everything is really just a matrix of light, how can we then accept such things as gravity and inertia? Do those things still apply when we understand that matter is just another form of energy, just slow moving light?

    Of course, the quantum physicists themselves generally say that the strange world they have discovered at the subatomic level with it's own odd laws, don't seem to work when you look at larger objects like a baseball, never mind a human or a planet. There are some thought who say that the same rules do apply, the scientists simply don't have the means of studying them.

    What all of this really means is that, while the laws of nature and the physical universe seem to be inflexible and unchangeable, they are not. Just as a federal law here in the Unites States can override a local law, a higher lever of law can override the laws of the physical universe and that higher law is the laws governing the spiritual worlds and the Laws of God.
