Is it just me or is it basically the same thing just written by different person?

might be that quantum entaglement is a manifestation of this principle. When it comes to quantum physics many things are at the border, thats the place where abstract and concrete are interconnected. I can't say they are the same thing, but in general you can find manifestations of a principle in various forms, from physics and even to philosophy. A closer similarity would be with things like voodoo :) .. but there is the same "issue" , if you digg deeper into how it works, you will probably end up to some weird physical phenomena , maybe the one you mentioned.

 

My point is that a principle is what governs a manifestation, not the other way around.
