I am not a physicist but I do have certain common sense ideas ( at least to me) that seem to me to be good answers about questions about reality. I present them here for what they are worth.
The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle reveals the fact that if a sub-atomic particle's position is measured, then one cannot measure its speed; and if one measures its speed, one cannot measure its position. The essence of this Principle means that an unobserved sub-atomic particle has no position. It is a wavefunction. On the other hand, if a sub-atomic particle has an observed position, then its wavefunction collapses into a material particle. Many physicists believe that this Principle only applies to the sub-atomic world. They do not believe that it applies to the macro-world where we can feel the solidity of objects and can observe their positions.
But to a certain extent, this Principle also applies to the macro-world. For example, when a baseball pitcher throws a baseball to his catcher, then while it is in flight, its position cannot be known because it is constantly moving. Only when it is caught by the catcher and comes to rest does it gain position. One may object that since we can see the baseball in flight, we can know its position, but this is not correct. The reason is that the moment we say that the ball has a certain position, it has already moved to its next position, and so forth until it reaches the catcher's mitt. Only when it stops in the catcher's mitt can we say, with certainty, that it has position. While the ball is in flight, we cannot see its position. We can only see a moving baseball. One may object that the Principle does not apply because the baseball does not become a wavefunction. But that only happens because the baseball moves to slowly to become a wavefunction. If the pitcher could throw the ball at the speed of light, then one would no longer see a baseball. One would only see a burst of light; that is, a wavefunction.
This means that wavefunctions happen when positions are not known, and positions are only known when observations collapse wavefunctions. The Uncertainty Principle causes the mind to be critical to the reality of the world.
When our minds observe the world, we observe both wavefunctions and material objects made of particles. When we see sunlight, we observe a wavefunction. But Einstein discovered that when one does a certain experiment, one finds that sunlight, at the sub-atomic level, comes in discrete energy packets called photons. This means that wavefunctions and material or energetic objects become real only by observation; that is, by the workings of consciousness.
Reality must be a duality of mind and matter, including wavefunctions. But what happens when mind is removed from duality? In other words, what exists when there is a nonconsciousness of the world? The only possible answer is that nothing exists. No positions or wavefunctions of reality can be experienced. This can only mean that space and time also cannot exist. In fact, nothingness itself cannot exist because it too can only be real as an idea in the mind. In a nonconscious world, only absolute nonexistence would (non)exist.
One cannot possibly imagine such a condition. But one can try. In the first place, since time and space cannot exist, then all of non-reality must collapse into a superposition state of existence and nonexistence. Since there could be no points in space, this superposition state would be nowhere and at no time. A superposition state is one in which sub-atomic particles both exist and nonexist at the same time, but the unreal superposition state could be nowhere and at no time. Such an unreal condition could be called a singularity.
But when one adds Consciousness to this singularity, then the wavefunction is created and one gets a burst of light. Genesis 1:3. With the burst of light, Mind overcomes the nonexistent superposition, and something becomes distinguished from nothing. Genesis 1:4-5. Then, Mind slows light until it can be collapsed into material particles that can coalesce into material objects. Genesis 1:6-10. After this, Mind can combine matter and energy in very complex ways in order to create life. Genesis 1:11-27.
Hebrews 11:3. The first half of this verse seems to indicate that God put order into His universe by His application of information when He created it. The second half of this verse seems to indicate that God created the universe by applying His Consciousness to the task of overcoming the superposition of the singularity.
