Awaken the Living Awareness Within Glossary
Quantum Bit (Qubit) is used in Quantum Computing – it utilizes the Quantum Mechanical principles that are derived from the Quantum Physics. Qubits are more versatile than standard bits, because they can exist in three states instead of just two. Qubit allows us to put bits of infromation into their 0 and 1 state at the same time.

Quantum Quote of the Day from the Book: Awaken the Living Awareness Within, in the section Quantum:
"One of the most glaring examples of the intersection of the worlds of the Quantum and Zen is to be found in the principle of wave-particle duality, which holds that elementary particles can exhibit the characteristics of both particles and waves, yet can be wholly reduced to neither. Quantum Mechanics recognizes the duality of matter by showing that nature on the smallest subatomic level behaves as both a particle and a wave. A photon, for example, can be a particle, or it can be a wave — or it can be both at the same time. Thus, one can say that Quantum Mechanics reveals the basic unity of the universe. You see, in Quantum Mechanics, subatomic particles exist in probability waves, and are only defined when something conscious observes them — otherwise they are everywhere and nowhere. And here we can find an amazing parallel: in the Zen way of thinking, opposites can exist simultaneously; contradictory things can exist at the same time."
