There is a quote, frequently attributed to Albert Einstein, that goes as follows: “Everything is energy and that’s all there is to it. Match the frequency of the reality you want and you cannot help but get that reality. It can be no other way. This is not philosophy. This is physics.”
Einstein never said this, of course. Much like Jack Shephard, he was a man of science, and while his groundbreaking theoretical approach did leave some room for the metaphysical, he was not known to be religious, spiritual, or of unsound mind. The same cannot be said of Darryl Anka, a man who claims to channel an extraterrestrial being named Bashar and happens to be the original author of that quote.
Everything has energy frequencies and wavelengths?true! But can you “match” a frequency to alter your reality" Definitely not. In fact, there is no way of manually determining the frequency around you at any given time. That is physics. Here’s what I’m getting at: Unless you buy in to the New Age charms of chakras, crystals, and pop science and consider an Esoteric Metaphysical Spiritual Database or Energyfanatics.com to be reliable sources, there’s no reason to believe that any of this is based in truth.
