Bohm took his idea of the Implicate Order to a spiritual level

Humans are the universe becoming self-aware, sort of thing.... rather beyond merely describing the interactions of fundamental particles. He suggested that the universe is like a hologram, and conscious observation provides a feedback loop that changes the hologram, allowing a different observation, a new feedback, and so on.

I'm not really clear whether he thought the universe would exist without conscious life. Otherwise it might be a silopsism, with no mechanism for life to evolve in the first place.
