In 1936 Einstein was able to get a Jewish (that was a primary reason they met and became friends) physics friend he had known since 1920 a one year fellowship at the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton, Einstein's then physics home. This included a $600 stipend. At the end of the year Einstein was not able to secure additional position for Leopold Infeld, so Infeld had to think of another way to support himself in the US. He proposed to Einstein they write a book on The Evolution of Physics, Infeld doing the heavy labor of writing, Einstein supplying the ideas. Einstein happily agreed and a very popular and successful book was published by Simon and Schuster in 1938. It became a kind of "A Brief History of Time" of its day, IOW a sensation, greatly aiding Infeld financially in staying in the US. Walter Isaacson wrote a Forward for a new edition which was published in 2008. It is still a very good introduction to the history of physics (but some of it is now merely history, not physics).
Winning his Nobel Prize essentially for quantum mechanics and not Relativity, although Einstein could never accept QM as a final theory, he greatly aided its development by attacking it with his famous thought experiments continually proposed to Neils Bohr. Bohr always found a way out of the puzzles Einstein proposed, even though sometimes nobody else understood Bohr's solution. The "attack" on QM continued with David Bohm in the 1950's (also working with Einstein at Princeton) and then in the 1960's by John Bell, a quantum engineer by day but turned theoretical physicist as his hobby, trying to save Einstein's precious locality. He devised a practical way with his Inequality Theorem wherein a few years later it became experimentally possible to verify if the principle of locality held or not. We now know from experiment that nonlocality is a principle feature of how the universe is structured. Einstein called nonlocality "spooky action at a distance". In the 1930's Schrodinger invented his own term for it, entanglement.
So what do we now know, because of Einstein, David Bohm, John Bell and Alan Aspect (the second guy to experimentally prove nonlocality) that is a verifiable feature of the universe? When two particles interact, they are forever connected, so that when one is effected the other is instantaneously effected, despite the distance between them, even superseding the speed of light. The last point was particularly abhorrent to Einstein, as it violated Relativity (except it uses a loophole which technically keeps Relativity in tact. The loophole is that entanglement cannot be used to transfer information from one particle to the other, that is, information transfer cannot supersede the speed of light. That is, one cannot transfer information from particle A to particle B, using entanglement, this because of the random nature of QM, basically, you can't transfer info because you don't know if the coin flip will be heads or tails, and you can never know. Therefore, you can never code particle A, so information cannot be sent to particle B via entanglement. This is like saying, particle A is either a 1 or a 0 [zero], so when the information gets to B all we can know is B is either a 1 or a 0. Now, either laughter or Gopal can explain why that can't work, if you don't already get it. But, hint, all computer information is binary, that is, is just a bunch of 1's and 0's, which means essentially off or on. And the 1's and 0's have order and sequence, and if you don't know which is which, you know nothing, thus no transfer of information. So, that is a very critical loophole, and may-be-why Relativity and QM can't be reconciled, that is, why there are two fundamental laws of the universe, as far as 4D is concerned). Einstein participated in a famous paper, the EPR paper, which guided Bohm and then Bell, which was supposed to show the absurdity of nonlocality-entanglement-spooky action at a distance. It was actually Einstein's last official statement against QM. (See second video below).
But what was Einstein's goal after Relativity? With General Relativity published in 1915, which gave a field interpretation of gravity, Einstein wished to show that all 4 known forces which explain everything (gravity, strong force, weak force and electromagnetism) are field phenomenon, IOW, everything that is consist of fields, not particles. Up until his death, 1955, Einstein was still working on a final theory of everything, a field theory.
As of today, physicists have unified strong force, weak force and electromagnetic force, that is, they have shown these are indeed one force. The sticky problem is still gravity, what exactly is gravity? We still do not have a Unified Field Theory of Everything. However, the great majority of physicists today consider that everything consists of fields, that even particles have as their basis, fields. This is Quantum Field Theory. So particles are formed where fields overlap.(See the video below).
This has taken me much longer than expected, but finally gets us to Abraham-Hicks and the Law of Attraction, and resonance.
But basically, ~We~ are a "particle" existing in 4-dimensional space-time, and our Inner Being exists in the non-physical (5D+), and resonance is the means of interaction/communication between the two ends of the stick. Nonlocality/entanglement shows there aren't really two, the stick is One. And the Infinite shows there aren't really many sticks, but All-Is-One Stick, with two ends.
One last thing, in samadhi, ~you~ are essentially in-tune-with/resonate-with, in the language of A-H, your Inner Being (who you were before your mother and father were born).

Following some of the videos laughter linked on the Infinity thread led me to this video on Quantum Field Theory, mentioned above. It's a very good short description of the nature of "physical" reality. There are almost no popular/for the layman books on QFT, I've searched.

Also mentioned in the OP, an excellent video on the EPR paradox.

What we know as entanglement/nonlocality is at minimum a metaphor for the link between small s self and Cap S Self, but I'd consider it more than a metaphor. Physics shows that entangled particles are somehow connected, even superseding the speed of light (this is demonstrated over and over in the laboratory). But it doesn't know how. The language physics uses is the two particles have one wave function. Two entangled particles act as if they are one particle, even if they are lightyears apart. Effecting one effects the other instantaneously. But we have to keep in mind, particles do not exist in and of themselves, never. No small s self exists in and of itself, it can only exist as from a larger field, a higher vibratory field. Quantum fields are the basis for particles. Now, physicists can't explain it, but their equations say that each tiny region of space contains infinite energy. But I think this shows the underlying Oneness of everything. One tiny region of space is infinite because it arises from the the Whole which is Infinite. This connection is called the Zero Point Field.
