Wrights Theory Of Space
Time
TOST SYNOPSIS
A great amount of energy in
the human endeavor is spent on understanding and obtaining some universal goal.
I am trying to get to a goal as well. But I do not see the final goal or the
looming question as a matter of proving or dis-proving
God's existence. That in many ways is the ultimate goal of many sciences.
Scientists propose that what you cannot ultimately see or measure cannot be
proven to exist. A part of this idea contains the concept of elegance.
I am interested in showing
that elegance or perfect organization is part of our current state and lies at
the heart of our destination. I believe that the tendency of our universe is
towards organization, however, the path to that
organization is not smooth. In the same way that Humanists believe in the positive
nature of man, and in like manner to Maslow's
self-actualization, people in their actions mirror or reflect or represent this
universe and the vagaries of it's course towards
organization. The main points to consider are elegance, organization, and the
destination or final state of the universe.
Physicists and
mathematicians may theorize, but they are ultimately concerned with measurable
phenomena. With acknowledgment to the occasional dissenter, scientists argue
that to prove something without reservation you must eliminate or control your
method of proof's subjective qualities. Language is subjective. So then it
cannot be used as a basis for any solid or provable, that
means, eventually irrefutable truth or theory. The idea that a theory may
spring only from language or the structure of language (or any other area) is
outside of the boundaries which they have constructed for themselves. This
viewpoint is focused through a tube or zone of understanding which only permits
enlightenment or understanding to fall to that group of people who possess
certain skillsets.
Notably it is only this set
of people who insist that people who have other types of skills or gifts cannot
possibly understand the complexities of the universe. You very seldom will get
an argument from a philosopher which insists that
their particular argument is the only argument which can stand close scrutiny
and possesses so much complexity that it can explain simplicity. Most musicians
and artists do not even venture into this argument at all.
The same, perhaps
intellectually entrenched people will hopefully agree that every so often a new
paradigm emerges, a shift in thinking or mathematical modeling follows, and
theories held true for a period of time are adjusted to fit or discarded. The
argument that language is not scientific, or that it is not able to perform a
function equal to equations or physical theory, is based on the subjective
nature of language. It is open to too much interpretation. It has logic, formal
logic that can be used in fact to "Prove" a false statement. How is
this different from paradigm shifts in science?
One answer is progression.
Paradigm shifts are seen as logical movements over time. Language is an
argument, seemingly endless, circular. And language undergoes shifts or changes
in relatively short periods of time. Is this an advantage or a dis-advantage for either?
I propose that one is equal
to the other in its ability to express a method or describe a path to an
ultimate goal. Language is unique in that it can be argued digressively, and
is, as new people emerge. The tendency in science is never to start at the
beginning, but rather to assume the beginning and argue only from the latest
model. What if that model is flawed? Then we say our logic was flawed, our
model was wrong, whereas in language it is normal to always have to start at
the beginning, and re-learn, which is annoying. The only thing that is
different in the two is how you place them against time. Scientists see their
work as progressing. They may be right. Or, someone may have made a mistake.
And philosophers and poets always seem to write about the same things. Where
are they going? The same place the scientists are. Art, music, language, and
science all can meet in their eventual expression of some pure goal. This
simple old idea meets with great resistance only from people who are married to
one concept or the other. I believe that the basic elegance or organization of
the universe escapes and shows itself everywhere.
If you think of knowledge
in terms of intersecting sets of understanding that form a cone as they link
through time, why would understanding be limited to only one discipline in the
cone? Who would you leave out? What is your motivation? Can you prove that any
other discipline cannot express what has escaped you?
If you cannot express a
mathematical equation or new model in words that can be understood, or in
symbols that can be manipulated, if you cannot draw it or play it on an
instrument, then it is not an elegant piece of work. Of course the same holds
true for all values or methods of expression.
Another way to say this is
to view the universe as something which inherently expresses itself. That is,
the ultimate expression of any one thing is that thing itself first of all. You
might simplify it but you cannot by definition say it any better than it says
it itself. You cannot, in essence, speak for others better than they can speak
for themselves, unless you need to paraphrase for your own understanding.
The structure of something
is therefore imbedded in it, of course. And this structure escapes from it, so
to speak, and is expressed in various ways. A persons structure escapes in the
form of reflected light, we are visible. Our persona, or mask, how we represent
ourselves to the world, escapes from our mouths and is expressed in our speech
and actions. Actions which form elsewhere make themselves visible. People
display pleasure or tension. Volcanoes erupt, emitting lava from deep beneath
the surface. Such events pass in and out of the physical or observable realm at
alarming rates.
Random or Organized?
Is the Universe organized
or random? And why does that matter? When you look around you see things which
are apparently in both states at the same time. (People, any
number of physical phenomena.) But fundamentally they must be organized,
or they would not exist. It seems that one rule for existing is to be in some
sense organized, that is, there is some fundamental
element that can be made to behave in certain ways and the act of creation is
equivalent to organization, so that everything we know of is fundamentally
organized, or we would not know of it.
Now if it is possible to
have this kind of fundamental organization, we have to accept that it may
express itself randomly, or exist against a backdrop of random activity. I am
not saying that it does, I am saying it is not likely to think that you can
predict, or that you have any reason to want to predict, the location of every
particle of matter everywhere at all times. (A deterministic
or mechanistic viewpoint.) Random motion is a backdrop against which
organization stands out, in this way randomness is part of and supports
organization. If everything was exactly organized I do not think that there
would be anything to see. Random motion allows beauty to exist.
Somehow this organization
that does exist escapes. Then people recognize it and attempt to describe it,
using whatever gift is at their disposal. Frustration occurs as we attempt to
separate what is organized from what is random. This is like the story of the
1000 monkeys hammering away at typewriters for a million years. Eventually they
will write a masterpiece. So we see in the universe, at times, organization
that does not exist, and we also miss things which are organized, understanding
all the while that everything by it's nature must be
partially organized.
Then it might make sense
that one representation of the universe could be something which displays both
qualities, by that I mean it is simultaneously organized and random. The clues
to the structure behind it rise to the surface and escape, even if only
occasionally, or by accident. This forms the basis for my argument that
language holds one of the sets of clues to the structure of the universe.
Language is universal: People have it, animals have it, and you can even think
of comets traveling between stars or even radiation or any form of energy as a
type of communication. It all has meaning. Organization escapes through many
avenues.
Of course it is not any one
language that would display this structure, it is all of them. In human
language the structure is embedded in the ideas of asking and answering, which
is all that we really do. If you take the time to reduce it, we are either
asking a question, or answering one, even if we think we are just free writing
it is in answer to some question or idea. (And an idea is a question, because
you immediately question any idea's validity, a question is embedded in an
idea.)
But language is also
seemingly random. Language is both random and organized. So then language might
be argued to be a reflection of or expression of our universe. I look for clues
in this manner that might be logically followed all the way back to an original
unorganized element. The hope is that we have some ability to separate truth
from the fictions created by random motion.
Questions
Does the universe ask
questions? It does, because:
The universe demands
participation. (Your survival depends on it.)
Participation demands
ideas. (Is your idea valid, will it work?)
Ideas contain Questions
These Ideas demand
expression.
True expression is elegant.
(An accurate representation.)
Expression is universal.
Elegance is universal.
(Every form of expression has it's particular beauty.)
Expression is demanded.
Depending on the
necessities of the moment, our survival requires math, which demands (the
expression of) language, demanding art, demanding music. (Or
inter/intrapersonal communication, and the ability to run!) I cannot accept why
it would be in the province of one group of humans or another according to
their gifts to understand all and survive, and others then with different but
equal gifts needs be denied an expression of elegance that reflects the goal we
all have. How would anyone justify an elegant universe with this argument at
its core? And how would so many people with differing gifts have made it this
far? Since we have not as humans been working in cooperative groups for a very
significant period of time, it is hard to argue that one group or the other was
superior and dragged the others along. Every separate gift has its advantages
and disadvantages, but a certain number of them have survived independent of
one another. There must be some inherent equality to them.
This idea is in a way an
extension of Howard Gardners "Multiple
Intelligences." (Intelligence Reframed, Basic Books, Sept 2000.) What
As I said I believe that
these are ways of categorizing gifts that God has given us, or imposed on us,
if you view a gift as something that it is your duty to develop. The force
of creation and the elegant expression that underlies it needs to escape
through us in some form or another. A person who blocks or does not develop
this expression will become anxious, and will not be able to progress, or
realize their potential, as a humanist would say. We would suffer from identity
and self concept problems, we would be
"incongruent" to use Carl Rogers term.
So following this line of
reasoning, if we recognize the resolute force of expression as a reality, and
then we can organize an understanding of talents or intelligences in some
manner, we have accomplished a methodology for teaching and for treating
people. We understand the urgency. We can also see how it is some people with
specific types of brain damage can develop extraordinary skill in specific
areas. They are expressing themselves quite well out of necessity, even if only
in a very specific fashion.
Lots of Questions
What we have then is a
world which asks us a continuous stream of questions. The fundamental question
is about your survival. We have various ideas about what survival is: For some
of us it is eating, for others it is actualization, spiritual development. We
have gifts or intelligences given to us as coping mechanisms. Is this all a
random mess, or is it part of a plan? It seems that organization exudes, is
radiated from this universe.
Now if organization is
radiated, it seems that it would have to escape everywhere, through everything.
The Role of God
I do believe in God. I
believe in a God that would speak to all of his creations in whatever language
they understood, or through whatever talent or gift he gave to them. So a
physicist would come to understand what God would have him understand through
physics, a mathematician would see the universe as an equation, or series of
them, and a poet or philosopher would deduce God's logic through writing. This
is a fairly common idea. God is not concealing anything, and he intends to be
discovered. Somewhere in our experience is a representation of creation, if we
know the clues and how to interpret them.
In the process of writing a
poem for fun, I settled in on the idea that God is a question. The reason for
this is simple. Every motion you make, and every thought that you have, is an
answer to a question. One way to look at this is God is always posing the question
"What are you going to do next?" You have free will. Are you going to
walk up or down the stairs? Read a book? Take a bath? Lift your finger? Live
for another day? And so on, ad infinitum. People and animals have this free
will. Some plants may as well. Anything that can answer has free will. Rocks
are creations of God, but they do not answer questions.
The devil, on the other
hand, desires that you have none of this. The only free will he wants you to
have is the will to do exactly what he wants you to do. He is not posing a
question so much as he is saying, "Hey, over here, look at this! Do
this!" But in giving in to attractive forces we lose control over
ourselves and become slaves to whatever it is we have decided to worship that
is not of God. I won't digress on this, because people fundamentally know what
is right and wrong and denying that knowledge is a lie, and begets circular
argument.
But if God is a question,
what is the devil? He is either a lie, or a clever question, but that is too
simple. I thought that he might more correctly be known as "an area that
possesses no questions", or denies the existence of questions. (An area that denies the existence of God.) This is like
saying you cannot have the devil and God in the same place at the same time.
You cannot both ask and not ask a question simultaneously. You might, however,
give one answer that would be sufficient for many questions.
Now if God can speak, and I
believe that he can, then what does he say? It is
reported that God speaks only the truth. He is not ambiguous. He makes
unambiguous statements. The devil, on the other hand, makes statements, but
they are ambiguous. The devil simply cannot tell the truth. He can use
half-truths, or engage in logic that leads back to itself, which is witty but
fruitless. The devil may be able to ask some questions, as I believe he is
partially made from one, but the nature or quality of his question is trapped
in itself. His attractive force or vanity, literally his gravitational force,
traps the limited God-like qualities he does have inside of him. Keep in mind
that Lucifer is said to have been one of the original intelligent creations
questions) made by God.
Now it seems to me that
there is a correlation between some things that we know about the universe,
things that we have empirically observed and proven scientifically, and some of
these ideas. God is associated with light and truth and you move willingly
towards him: He does not drag you in. The devil has an attractive dark quality
that is like a whirlpool, so that if you get too close it is oh so hard to
resist anymore and away you go. What has this got to do with science? The devil
is like a high gravity field. The attraction is always there but is weak from a
distance. The closer that you get, the more attractive it is, or seems. But
remember it may be that the devil is also an area that possesses no questions.
So what does an area that possesses (possibly) only questions look like? The
opposite of gravity is no gravity, 0 gravity, which interestingly according to
science does not exist. Neither does God, because he cannot be
"proven." So, God is a question, a 0 gravity area, and the devil is
an area that possesses no questions, (or has a weak element of question area
trapped) and is represented to us in high gravity form. God is positive, the
devil is negative. God is some form of matter, the devil is another. He may be
anti-matter, but again, that concept is suspicious in it's
simplicity. Simple things are either exactly correct or perfectly puzzling.
(Refer to "The Puzzle at the end of this piece for more on the idea of
inherent deception.)
What I see coming out of
this structure is three kinds of matter. God is truly only pure energy, light,
radiation, but he can be and is represented in a pure matter called HOST. (When he so chooses.) The universe was originally composed
of HOST only. Everything evolved from this. HOST is becoming known as strings.
The other kinds of matter are negative and positive TOST. (TOST or
"tossed" matter is warmed up HOST or purity, which has been forced or
corrupted into random motion.)
What are we made of? What
made us? I think that God made us, that we are spirits, and that the essence of
our spirit is a very small area of O gravity, essentially a small piece of Q
(God) wrapped up in matter. God created the matter we are made of in a complex
process I will get into in a minute. What we are made of is not perfect matter,
or unambiguous matter such that God might be composed of. We are made out of
corrupted random matter, which is ambiguous. This is not to say we are of the
devil. But we are not perfect.
So our spirit is a small
part or creation of God wrapped up in corrupt matter. Our job, so to speak,
here on earth is to move ourselves closer through free will towards God, and to
do so in the end we must not be ambiguous. (That is, literally ambiguous and
also made out of corrupt matter in random motion.)
I make some assumptions
that are interesting in this theory. One is that this universe is not a closed
system. God came from outside of this creation. The other is that God is a
literal man who in his perfected form is composed of 0 gravity represented in
unambiguous matter. That matter could be light or radiation represented in HOST
at times and at times not: I do not know what it is. But I see one God who is
immortal and has a body, but we may not understand it. We are made after his
likeness. I am gender-specific on purpose, and I do not apologize for that. You
may envision God however you want, or not at all. It is not mine to question.
How I believe the Universe Was Formed
God desired to create a
universe. That is his purpose. God made or emitted a statement. It was an
unambiguous statement. God saw that it was good, i.e. God saw that he had
accomplished this part of his job. He left here possibly Hydrogen in a 0
gravity motionless cloud at absolute 0.
God in rather rapid order
left this creation. The question left. What he had left behind was a 0 gravity
unambiguous matter, a statement. In his sudden absence and because of his
absence an area that possesses no questions formed. If you have no questions
there can be no answers. It is possible that inside of this area that possesses
no questions there is a small amount of Q. But it is hindered, crushed, walled
in.
It is hindered and walled
in because the area that possesses no questions rapidly became interested in
itself. As this process continued this area of gravity of increasing force
grew.
Why can a 0-gravity field
leave behind a 0-gravity element and have it have some effect? There are really
two reasons. God emitted this 0-gravity element, it was not a question like
him, it was a statement, even though it was 0 gravity.
It had potential mass, just like God. But Gods departure created this collapse
because of the difference in pure 0 gravity energy and pure 0 gravity elements,
or the difference between a perfect question and a perfect statement. The
statement simply could not support itself, as there was no logic anymore to it's being. This is like saying you cannot say "I
am" without saying "Am I?"
The concept of 0 gravity is associated with absolute zero, also thought
to be unattainable. But the growing high gravity of the non-question area
caused friction. The universe, which had consisted of only unambiguous matter
emitted in a statement by God, collapsed and in the process heated up. Some
percentage of the matter in the universe became corrupt: It became ambiguous in
this process of rushing toward the devil. (Who does have some mass). Some percentage remained unambiguous, but it was
nonetheless slightly warmed in the process. Remember this is going on while God
is gone. There is nothing to stop this process. At some critical point God
returns.
The action of this return
injects 0 gravity back into the system. God has
returned at a specific time we may know as the meridian of time. This may be
like putting matter with antimatter. What occurs is the universe expands
rapidly. It may expand due to a matter-anti-matter reaction, or it may expand
simply due to the explosive reaction of so much super-heated TOST and the
remaining HOST. And as it expands the Universe as we know it forms. This is
like the big bang theory, but the key is the introduction, removal of, and
re-introduction of a 0-gravity field. The zero gravity field
plays a role in the expansion. (It prevents total contraction and it causes
expansion at an increasing rate.) If any of this is true then we will see a
universe which is expanding at an increasing rate, which would seem to require
more energy, and that is provided by the inflow of 0 gravity.
This same inflow of 0 gravity is going to cause the system to speed up, heat up
and contract again at some point, it will unbalance the system. The thing which
prevented catastrophic failure in the past can cause the universe's eventual
demise. And this same 0 gravity quality is life, so then one of the puzzles of
this universe is life causes entropy.
Time is involved in this
process as gravity and time are related. Time has no effect at
0 gravity, and in a Universe of only HOST. (This will be the eventual
state of the universe once again, at the conclusion of this cycle we are
involved in.) The original HOST emission is in some perfect shape that is not
held together by gravity. That is, its shape is not defined by gravity. The
devil did not decide the form of the original universe. The universe could have
been a continuous cone or tube or it may have been a sphere, but I think it is
more likely to have been like the cone or tube. Imagine a tube of matter or
HOST (or strings) being emitted or streaming from the circle or the oval of the
mouth of God. In this manner creation is like speaking, or language, so this
gives life to the idea that God would say "Let there be light"
etc.
The collapse of the
universe had the effect of coiling the tube, or tubes. Like a
rope that is in a line then coiled, and is laying flat. (Nearly flat.) The effect was that there was no time then
with every moment of increasing gravity there was this idea of time which
changed as the universe became more tightly wrapped into itself. It then began
to slowly unravel after the return of 0 gravity or God. Tube,
flattened tube coiled, then expanding and unraveling. I haven't had the
time to turn all of this into a sentence or a poem. I don't need to write it
myself: I need to find where it is already written and put to other uses. Such
writings I predict will exist across all time and cultures. There is no good
reason why it could not have only taken 6 of our days to do all of this. In
addition, I have no faith in the idea of a singularity,
all matter would be corrupted in this singularity. It simply does not work as
this was the goal of the devil or gravity: To consume itself,
corrupt all matter to TOST or to a form that could be manipulated by the devil.
There is no God but the devil in a singularity composed of the devil.
0 gravity can travel around and through all
of this tube or coil to anywhere it wants, as it is not affected by the
gravity. So what is left in this argument is God, 0 gravity,
who exists both here and outside of this universe. He is an intersecting
set. The Devil is high gravity anti-matter. (TOST and
possibly an element of Q.) Matter and anti-matter seem to be reserved
for God and the devil. What we call matter is God's originally unambiguous
statement that was corrupted in the rush towards the high gravity area. If God
emitted a 0 gravity unambiguous statement, he might have emitted 0 gravity
absolute zero hydrogen, or the antecedent of hydrogen. But we are made of
corrupt matter. It got warmed up, changed. I call this matter TOST for tossed.
What is left over and not corrupted is HOST. So in this view, once again, there
are three kinds of matter.
God is 0
gravity HOST. He is matter, not anti matter. We and everything we think
of as matter are TOST. We are in random motion, so to speak. If you cannot
predict where a particle is at a given moment, that is
TOST. But HOST is in slow but observable motion. The devil is TOST. The devil
is also anti-matter. He must be made of something that cannot be destroyed by
the action of high gravity concentrated TOST which he has surrounded himself
with. Remember though he has a small amount of Q at his center, which makes him
rather conflicted, doesn't it? HOST, TOST, and - TOST.
HOST and TOST can mix. (I do not think that they do.) HOST and -TOST should
not.
Life is formed when God
emits a question. This question is represented in TOST. As I said we have at
our center a small bit of this 0 gravity, a gift of life from God.
Now I want to represent all
this as two sides on a fulcrum.
Life in the Balance
Remember that the devil
exists. In the rush towards his attractive force which was created by the
absence of God we committed original sin. We became corrupt. Our eventual
purpose is to become un-corrupt. What is that process? This idea starts with: X
is GOD. Q is questions. Both God and questions are 0 gravity.
S is a statement or matter, or a statement of matter in a positive or negative
manner. (matter or anti matter, truth or ambiguity.) H
is HOST. N is the devil. (Who has the special properties of being both created
by God or having Q but is also the author of corruption.)
N+-S+T is balanced by (X+Q)
++S+H
"High gravity negative matter and warm
matter in random motion is balanced by an inflow of 0 gravity
and a quantity of positive matter plus matter that is not in random motion and
is cold."
Read another way it also
says:
"The devil and his negative ambiguous
statements are balanced by the question of God and his positive and unambiguous
statements"
I think in all of this that is the most
significant finding or interpretation. That statement, which is an idea, and is
also a question, is at the heart of language being one reflection or
representation of the structure of the universe.
It is also TOST and
Negative TOST are balanced by HOST and O gravity.
If you were to think to
balance this equation by having X balance N, +S balance -S, and H balance T,
then this would leave Q or one of the representations of God as the only factor
left in the equation. It is therefore unbalanced. (I am not saying this
"math" is absolutely correct by any means.) The problem is Q is a 0
gravity idea. So then the scale tips back over to the left or towards gravity
and heat and contraction! 0 gravity is then not only giving life, it is
introducing entropy, an idea we can see witnessed in ecosystems of any size
which over-populate and destroy themselves, or at least endure population
reductions or displacements. Before you imagine that I am arguing that God can
only balance the actions of the devil please continue.
This section is from my
original stream of thought:
The universe is balanced on a dangerous fulcrum. On one side is N, -S, T, on the other is +S, H, and (X + Q). Since X and Q are zero gravity, more Q emitted lightens the scale and tips everything back to n. It is not correct to construct an equation for this universe that has an = sign in it. The universe is not a closed set, remember X’s area intersects and this is the source of more Q. Don’t worry: X can choose to intersect the entire set. That is the whole point to being God. Or X can un-intersect, with disastrous results for us. After X completely intersects, there are no untruths, no areas that possess no questions, nothing but light, and we all become hosts of heaven! (At this time there are a limited # of hosts, and their # is growing) You might think of hosts of heaven (as opposed to H the element) as questions (Q) who were ambiguous (T) but lost their ambiguity. They are perfected! Tost, but annoyed Tost, as I mentioned before is people who are questions or zero gravity areas represented by Tost.
So what happens is that as
God creates life more 0 gravity enters the system and
the possibility exists that the universe could collapse again. It will not
because that is not its purpose. Eventually a lot of Q will be removed; that is
to say, a lot of people will be taken away. It is logical that where they will
go will be outside of this system, or universe. Everything that happens here in
this universe, everything that is created, or the structure of the interactions
that occur, is a literal representation of a spiritual event or thought that
originally occurred outside of the system. Wars occur in thought or spirit
before reality. The Universe, the devil, spirits with and without bodies, and
how they interact with the universe all happens in accordance with a plan, that is nothing new. Even a tree or a rock has then a
form in spirit before reality here, but do not think I am saying we are only
acting out something which we already rehearsed. The stage is set, but the
questions are yours to ask. That is what we do.
One thing that I want to
make clear is that the additional life or 0 gravity or Questions come from
outside the system. The idea of entropy is actually life entering the system,
so much life that it can and will cause the system to "fail." To
reiterate, in the same manner that overpopulation ruins the environment, 0 gravity (eventually) removes thermodynamic energy from the
system. At first it causes an expansion at an increasing rate. There is more
potential energy and less mass. Then it heats up (again). Too much life would
cause the heating up and retraction of the mass, or a re-coiling of the tube,
however you look at it. The mass of HOST increases with heat. So it is
necessary to have this concept of binding the devil, containing the gravity.
Many of the biblical
concepts might find a home in the idea of God as 0 gravity, people as questions
made of 0 gravity that are represented in corrupt matter,
and the devil providing the necessary opposition that makes it all work. That
is, until he is no longer required, and GOD intersects the entire set. There
are a lot of theologies out there that could plug into this in various ways,
but that is not what I set out to do. I did not set out to do anything but
write a poem about questions. The rest I simply saw. What I saw I will
eventually write a poem about, when I am inspired to.
I have seen some arguments
for a multi-dimensional universe. Something like up to 11
dimensions. This is a method that is used to explain phenomena we cannot
understand. You might accuse me of the same thing, saying this idea of God
coming from "outside" the universe is the same concept as another
dimension. Put everything you don't understand outside on the porch! But it
isn't, I just don't have time here to get into this idea. Please accept for now
that I am not burying unknowns in this grave.
I hope you do not see it as
impossible that God may have reflected our universe in our language. He
reflects it in everything. The idea of God as a question is viable only if it
can be modeled in other ways. The universe as a fulcrum that is balanced by 0
gravity is possible, but I have not found it modeled elsewhere yet. People as 0 gravity elements that unbalance the universe, provide
entropy, is of course a model that places us at the center of the universe.
I do not think that we are a mistake out here in some remote galaxy.
I agree that things should
be measurable, proven. People should not be so vain; they should look to all
cultures, all times, and all manners of expression, in order to answer God's
questions.
The Puzzle and The Prism of Difficulty
Birth, life in conflict, resolution, death, then rebirth or "hope." When you ask an artist or a musician to describe or model the elegance of the universe, usually the model they expand on is this cycle. Not the absence of this cycle, or an absolute. It seems that they would rather show the rules of the cycle, as the argument is that this cycle is endless, and that even if God was to intersect here completely, or to dwell with us, the same rules would apply as did before this event.
If you ask an artist to describe or create a more pure representation of only God, they ask essentially, "How can we describe an infinite, an unknown? We must show you what we can see or how we feel", or "Hey, this is what we see, do you not see it as well?" Essentially they argue for the idea of the cycle. In the mantra om or aum, Joseph Campbell the mythologist heard a representation of life. (As explained by Buddists.) The idea is the open A or Aw sound is birth, the progression to the u sound is life and conflict, and the m or closed consonant is death. All vowels are represented in this. Indeed vowels are the most intense and sonorant and audible sounds in speech, and consonants depend on them for audibility. This is to say that death has no meaning without life. The gap of silence between continuous om's represents immortality. So then immortality is represented by an absence. (Of sound.) But a musician cannot express God in silence! They must use all notes as well as silence, which is in itself a note or space.
Now imagine the painter wants to describe God. It is interesting that God is thought of as light or white or pure across all cultures, which is consistent with the idea of 0 gravity. Light can be and is captured by gravity so much so that no light escapes extremely high gravity, and we call this a black hole. White, however, is all (visible) light, the entire spectrum, everything. How do you display this? How is it represented? We must use here on this Earth an absence of colors to show what should be shown by every color. White to us is an absence. Black then is made by mixing all colors! This sets up a puzzle of representation to us. If white is purity and is everything and it is representative of God, and physically it is all wavelengths of light, then why do we draw it using nothing? (No colors, a tabula rasa.) In the same way you can wonder why it is we have to use all notes to signify something that might best be most elegantly and simply described by using no notes at all.
The idea of a source of undefinable perhaps infinite energy in the universe is puzzling many people. They have a value for it in their equations, they know it must be there. They assign it various names such as "dark matter" or "dark energy". This is what I call 0 gravity HOST, an emission of God, part of the entropy creating force of life. Part of the puzzle is life is entropy. Life causes death. This is not just another way of saying you cannot die if you never were alive: Life brings with it more life and catastrophe unless something intervenes.
HOST is nothing but potential energy. So why then is it dark matter? Is God the dark lord? Are we confused? 0 gravity cannot keep anything it creates, how could it? It gives it all away. Perhaps you might think of God as 0 gravity dark matter which converts to energy or radiation which then disperses as freely as good will. So he is both darkness and light, the alpha and the omega. The source, beginning, and the end of the cycle.
So then does being "cast into outer darkness", or hell, mean that you are cast out into an area that is more correctly called "outside of darkness"? In this case darkness is an attribute that is desirable. That is where God is, or can be, as he can be both dark and light. Potential or released energy.
Wait. Who is dark? The devil? This is another puzzle. The devil wants to be God, does he not? He is known as "The prince of Darkness." Who is the King of this darkness? So we at least have a piece of evidence that God has dominion over both sides of this equation, and Lucifer has some idea that he must emulate God after this dark fashion. He (Lucifer) has the problem, however, of only having partial dominion over that matter which he has corrupted. (TOST) In this way is his power limited…He seeks the purity of cold 0 gravity energy and HOST but his vanity created TOST which he has some abilities to control. He seeks to corrupt, or warm up, or make heavy, more matter, so that he can control it. He cannot control that which he cannot attract. He seeks to corrupt everything.
So part of the puzzle is our gullibility in being convinced that darkness is evil. Darkness is not even something you can argue is allowed to exist by God, it is the Alpha state of God. (Without the gravity.) The stuff that God is made of can exist in any state. Not so for the adversary. We have rules to live by in this era.
We are using the rules of this era as best we can. We do not know how to model a different set of rules, a universe where God is here with us at all times and opposition does not factor in.
That partially explains music, art, and something about darkness. What about language? One way to look at it is to recognize that people are looking for answers. We ask God for these answers. Why then do I propose that God is a Q or question? It (a question) is a representation of something which is the answer (or who is the answer) only in terms of this era or set of rules of existence. All of the religious works of this world are riddled with people asking for answers and getting only questions in reply. In this way I want you to understand that I believe that God both asks the questions and provides the answers, he makes statements. (The darkness to light, alpha omega argument.) But for now, in the same way that we might show artistically everything that is by showing nothing, and in the way we use every note to attempt to elegantly describe a cycle of life that will become obsolete, (be silenced,) we look for answers by asking and receiving questions.
Incidentally, when you ask an artist to model only God and not this cycle of birth, conflict, resolution, and rebirth, typically they struggle with it and complain that they are drawing a blank. (That is a joke.)
For physicists and mathematicians, the puzzle is expressed in a different way. We are all spending energy looking at the way it is, not necessarily what it might become. We try to figure out what it might become by looking at history, which is an intelligent approach. There is the problem, however, of seeing only in history the rules of what was and is, and using those rules to predict a future. You might also ask "What was not? Any method you use tempts the thinker into thinking in terms of balance or equality. If we started with "A" amount, we then have "A" amount now, we just do not know necessarily where it all is or what form it has taken. This would be the fundamental of mathematical modeling. It leads to an = sign, or to the idea of an equality, so much so that this equality is taught to us from the beginning. "Every action has an equal and opposite reaction." This is consistent with the duality or gravity and no gravity concept. Or is it?
So the puzzle of math or physics is trying to represent something which may not be a closed system and may not be permanently equal in its application of current rules. Yes, people try to theoretically represent different sets of rules, then they set out to find the physical evidence. But what about a case where there is no opposition? How do you model that? And I reflect my belief in this area by using the term "is balanced by" in my equation for the universe as it is now. In the end the universe in this TOST is neither balanced or equal. God intersects and completely changes the rules.
This is my answer to people who insist that God is and can only be the answer to all and not a question. I say yes, you may be right, but the answers are not all described to us yet. We are not done asking our own questions. If all the answers were available we would not have to describe God using a method of elegant expression which is inherently corrupt and flawed. We can only describe God according to the limits of understanding imposed by the original sin of TOST matter rushing toward gravity, corruption, the devil. This then is the prism of difficulty we are faced with. It is ours to overcome, with God's help.
Am I making an argument which states "You cannot describe the indescribable?" No, that is what the devil wants you to think. This is part of the fundamental corruption process he is engaged in. If you cannot describe something, you cannot possibly know it, and then it must either not exist or it is an unreachable ideal. Why then should you struggle so hard for it? (He argues.) His argument is essentially take the path of least resistance and describe only what is tangible, easy. After all, such expression can be beautiful. The rest, what should in fact be the most simple to describe, he has rendered obtuse, so much so that we use opposites to describe it. It is even more obtuse than that, as it is actually not so simple, we cannot just use opposites. This form all springs from the original "sin" of corruption from unambiguous to ambiguous matter and the resultant attempts at elegant expression to define this universe. Remember that expression can be elegant while it is describing an untruth.
What then is the point? Is anything constant? What is constant? The "Cosmological constant" Einstein saw is different from mine. I see an influx of 0 gravity which unbalances the universe. An inflow of "dark matter" is the cosmological constant. This is a constant, but the flow of it is not constant. It actually comes in at differing rates, a reason or an argument not to have an = sign. That is one constant, which is the same as saying God is constant, now as a question, (and the answer,) and later as the Answer (and more questions.) The other constant is expression, this is the most fundamental occurrence outside of any representation of God. This is why we exist. At this time we exist as expression which is related to survival which is an answer to a question, which is "Can you survive? What are you going to do? After the intersection of God we will have the answer, we will be immortal, i.e., survival is no longer an issue. We will, however, be expressing ourselves. This may be in worship, or thanks, or it may be a step in human progression. Our method of expression may be to learn to ask better questions! So then expression, or elegant expression, is a constant across existences, as is God.
I really think that we will continue with all of our human failings even after a momentous event like the largest one we could have, life in the presence of God. I am so convinced of this that I can even imagine scenarios where people see and know God personally and even then question his reasoning. And I believe that this is what they are supposed to do. (As long as they do not deny him.)
Further on in the concept of equality in math we find the equality or = sign is meant to mean "can be expressed as." Now what is being said is "Please add back in or subtract random factors or variables to cause an equality." Either expression of =still ends up to be an equality, whether or not you need an unknown to balance your equation. At this point in time I think it is not possible to balance any concept of the universe. It is unbalanced on purpose.
The Final Puzzle: Life as Entropy and the Justification of Death
It seems that the argument has been made that life is entropy. We are so convinced of it we can justify removing the life of others from the planet in order to preserve ours. If you “overpopulate” a particular ecosystem it fails. Certainly there is some ultimate logic to this, you cannot stack people one on the other under this or any other set of rules. But we are nowhere near this state. Why then do we find it so easy to kill other people, even unborn or unrealized people?
The idea that less life is better for the rest of us, and the justification of death by any means including the “natural” death, is the ultimate puzzle. It serves the purposes of the devil to have less life in the system. Remember that life will cause the eventual end of this system. It is interesting that the act of corruption made life in this form possible, but now the injection of life will cause its demise, if life is 0 gravity and the universe does follow this course of rapid expansion. (And contraction). So then the interests of the devil are served by reducing life, this is why he is so actively killing people, born or unborn. He cannot keep people around to serve his purposes if there are too many of them. He knows what happens if “too much” life is in the system. It reverts to the sole control of God. In this way it also serves the Devil to have corrupted matter, which can not support life indefinitely, in other words we are mortal. The even more interesting thing is none of this would be going on without the devil, so there is some need for the attractive force of the devil (or gravity) in this universe. It is a simultaneously complex and supremely simple organization.
The preservation of the concepts of this adversary to life are organized under the doctrine of limits. Jealousy is rooted in the idea that resources are limited. We are jealous creatures. I must limit your access to food in order to have more for myself. A resource is either finite, or our access to it is finite, even if it is abundant elsewhere, like water. There is only so much coal, oil, energy. Mom loves you more than me. Love is finite! Love me, not him! But what resource is there that you can argue is truly limited?
The concept of attraction by the devil, both literally and in the ways that this is represented emotionally, has in a fundamental way made it possible for us to eliminate other humans. We see them as competitors for limited resources, even for the love of God. We visualize these things in terms of where they are going to, what they are attracted by, and we try to grasp them as they go by. We say “Look at what is disappearing! Get some!” We seem to never think to turn and look towards where all of this is coming from. We think only in terms of limits, because we are turned toward the attraction.
So the idea of limits fits into “flows” toward attractive forces. I don’t know how God could keep or restrict life inside of him. He can direct its form and its location, but not its existence, as it is his existence. It is as if we have been convinced by the devil that life is water, which flows to a lake. The source of life is the lake at the end of the stream. The lake is life, is it not? Life teems there. It collects. And so do the predators on the banks of the lake, for this is where the prey is easiest to find and kill, as its attention is focused on drinking.
We are the prey at this lake. We have the option, of course, of searching for the pure source of this stream, the well, or we might trust to the sky. The river flows by us and our attention is caught by it. But the water comes from the mountaintop. Everything else is a distraction.
Another way to visualize this is with light. Imagine that you are living on the edge of a prism. This prism might be earth, or a prism which rests on the earth. From upstream comes pure white light, and as it passes through the prism it radiates out into the stunning beauty of all colors. You follow the path to the beauty you see spread before you. This idea is played out again and again in literature, we have this tendency to “follow the rainbow”, and somewhere over it is a truth that we might better find at home. But it has a real physical tie-in to this universe and its formation. The idea is that somehow we all get home again, we find the truth. We avoid, or are graciously saved from the predators. It is “inexorable”, this lesson. We see it before us. Is there anything wrong with this picture? Isn’t it like the cycle of life? Is this all we see, is there more to it than this?
There are two different deceptions at work here. One is that this river of life, or light, in time and consistent with time curves back and leads us back to our prism, where our cycle ends or is repeated as we are purified again by this prism. The other deception is the purifying nature of the waters in the lake at the end of the river. The river ends in the lake, so this must be the destination, right? Perhaps under the surface lies purity, a water-borne prism. Why not just avoid the predators at the lake? And consider following the light to its source rather than bending it to your purposes.
If you are thinking I am attacking Christian baptism, remember that the idea is to come out of the water, emerge from it. You go to it to be purified, washed clean, but you don’t live in the lake. You have somewhere to go.
There is somewhere to go with all of this. We exist in this corrupted universe where we are subject to deceptions which cause us to do things which are not congruent with the purposes of God. If there was no devil, no high gravity, no corruption, then life would not (and will not) cause entropy. Life causes entropy because of the devil. So then there is an odd piece of logic at work: If life is entropy, and God is life, then God is entropy, therefore God is death.
Life is entropy.
God is life
God is entropy.
God is death.
So the ultimate puzzle is that in the way the universe is organized or corrupted, God is death, which of course is false beyond repair. We lose our minds asking questions like “Why is God doing this to us?” We are looking at the lake and not the mountain. We see the predators and not the well. But we are subject to this clever deception as a fundamental reflection of the formation of our universe. It takes a rather concerted effort to see through it, to gain faith. We need to struggle through two basic problems:
The universe has limits. (We do, it does not.)
Life is entropy. (It is now, and it will not be later.)
Life is entropy is the logical hat that the powers of
attraction hang their hat on. The idea of limited resources offers
justifications for self-preservation. Both are false doctrines of unimaginable simplicity,
which is why they are so effective. It is apparently the simple things in life
that we find so difficult.
