At
some point, everyone who draws breath must ask the ultimate question. It comes
out in many different forms: What is this all about? What is life? Where did we
come from, and where are we going? What is the meaning of existence? What the
(bleep)?!! What is the nature of reality? What is the answer? It is this
ultimate question that is behind all human efforts to know: science, religion,
philosophy…
The answer, however complex it might
seem, can be summed up in one sentence: Understanding of the nature of light is
understanding the nature of reality.
Light
is radiant energy. Its first corporeal form is the electron. The electron’s
measurable and observable characteristics form the true quantum unit, the
Triadic Rotational Unit of Equivalence (TRUE), the basic unit of the Calculus
of Dimensional Distinctions (the CoDD), and applying the CoDD to the analysis
of subatomic structure, we discover the mass-less, energy-less volumetric
equivalence of gimmel, the non-physical agent of consciousness required for the
stable existence of life-supporting matter. This means that the physical universe
exists solely for the purpose of the expression and experience of spiritual
reality.
I
have applied the CoDD to the mainstream concepts of the solution to Olber’s
paradox, look-back time, the red shift, the big-bang expanding universe, and
constant light speed, and found that there is something wrong. If my translation of these concepts into the language of the
CoDD was appropriate and accurate, - and the translation of hypotheses is
admittedly the most difficult part of the application of the CoDD - then these
concepts as they are currently accepted in the mainstream scientific community,
are not logically consistent. The CoDD analysis shows that these concepts,
taken together, do not form a logically consistent theory.
Astrophysicists
tell us that space-time may be either curved or flat. If it is flat, then the
universe is infinite, and the red shift is not due to motion, but rather to
distance, and without outside influence, or inside organizing activity, the
universe would expand to maximum entropy, as the second law of thermodynamics
predicts. The Hubble telescope data so far tends to support the hypothesis of
an infinite universe, because, contrary to the accepted answer to Olber’s
paradox, the farther we look, the more stars we see; and even if, at the end of
every line of sight there is a star, we don’t see them simply because they are
too far away. If this is the reality and there is no universal organizing
factor, then, as Bertrand Russell famously said, all the works of man, however
great, will disappear in the great heat death of the universe. But that picture
doesn’t include any consideration of the primacy of consciousness.
The
only reason space-time might be other than flat, is because of the existence of
content as mass and energy. In the aggregate, however, they are uniform, which
would give the appearance of uniformity and again a flat universal geometry.
But the existence of anything is dependent upon the existence of stars and an
observer who can see them. If space-time is curved, and the curvature is
uniform, then the expanding universe is an illusion, the multi-dimensional universe
can only expand into itself, and everything that has happened, or will happen,
is already happening now. Any constant, uniform movement of a consciously
observed quantum event in space-time will eventually return to the point of
origin, implying a recurring cycle in time. If the curvature is not uniform,
then we have the illusion of multiple universes, and an infinite number of
them. But this contradicts the definition of universe and leads to logical
paradox. In all three cases, space-time, or extent, has no meaning at all
without individualized consciousness, and localized consciousness depends on
the existence of the conversion of light to electrons, protons and neutrons,
atoms and molecules, and the organic life forms that support consciousness
which organizes and animates molecules, atoms, etc.
Before
you decide whether you want to accept or reject the idea that understanding the
nature of light is the answer to the question of existence,
let’s look at the simple equation made famous by Albert Einstein: E = mc2. Solving this
equation for c, the speed of light,
it becomes: c = √(E/m), the square root
of E divided by m, where E is
energy and m is mass. Apply this to
the entire universe, and you have the true meaning of the statement “the
speed of light is constant” and
you’ll find that it doesn’t mean what the average person thinks it does.
At
any given point in time, the speed of light radiating through space is constant
everywhere in the universe for everyone, regardless of relative motion. (That’s
the first assumption of Einstein’s theory of relativity.) But, the equation
tells us that the speed of light is defined by the ratio of energy to matter.
So, if everything were light with no mass, i.e., mass would be zero in the
equation, then the universe would be expanding at an infinite speed (c = √E/0 = ∞). But, as soon as there is
a particle, even one photon of light converted to an electron, c becomes finite. In the universe
today, the ratio of energy to mass is such that the speed of light in a vacuum is 186,282 miles per second
(299,792 kilometers per second). But, the ratio of energy to mass has not
always been what it is now, producing that exact speed, and, in this dynamic
universe of ours, it will not be the same in the future. In fact, there is
evidence that the speed of light was greater in the past. [See J. Casado (2003). "A Simple Cosmological
Model with Decreasing Light Speed".]
The passage of time depends on the speed of
light, so, if the velocity of light was different in the past than it is today,
and will be different in the future, then the passage of time was faster in the
past, when there was less matter and more energy, and will be different in the
future than it is today. Think about that for a second. What is measured on our
time scale today as a million years, would only have been a few seconds at one
point in the very early stages of the universe when there was very little
matter. This means that when we look at light from a distant star, we can’t
assume that the billions of years measured on today’s time scale, that we take
to be the time it took for that light to reach our telescope, is correct.
During the first part of the trip, when there was very little matter, and the
speed of light was much greater, the light expanded through a lot more space in
much less time. This means that the universe is much younger and much larger
than we are led to think it is by assuming that light has always traveled at
the same speed, and that there was a big bang.
It
was recently announced that an astronomical record has been broken: Astronomers
have seen a galaxy farther away in space and time than ever before. They tell
us that the light
reaching us from this record-breaking light source, called z8_GND_5296, left it
13.1 billion years ago, and that the picture we see of it now comes from just
700 million years after the big bang! That is obviously a conclusion based on
the assumption that the speed of expanding light energy has always been what it
is today. What if that assumption is wrong, as my CoDD analysis indicates?
If,
as current astronomical theory has it, the universe is about 13.8 billion years
old, the most distant galaxy is flying away from us at near light speed, and if
the speed of light has been constant over all time since the big bang, then we
have a paradox: By the time light has reached us from a source13.1 light years
away, that source will have sped another 13 billion light years away, and the
universe will be at least 26.8 billion years old, not 13.8! The only way this
paradox can be resolved, is for the speed of light to have been much greater in
the past. This conundrum was partially resolved by Astronomer Alan Guth in 1979
by what is known as “inflation theory”, proposing that the early universe
underwent a period of very rapid expansion.
In 1983 Guth, published a paper describing how
his supercooled-universe scenario was not ideal, as the "triggering
mechanism" to exit the state of rapid expansion would require
"extreme fine tuning of parameters" and he believed that a more
natural solution is required. (GUTH, ALAN H. "The New Inflationary
Universe". Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences. 422 (1 Eleventh
Text): 1–14). The
more natural solution, in my opinion, is the natural slowing of light speed
predicted by my CoDD analysis. However, the quantized nature of mass and energy
does suggest a non-linear, discrete multi-phase process, not a continuous one.
More analysis is needed.
Application
of the CoDD reveals that reality is a dynamic balance of mass, energy and
consciousness (as gimmel), all of which co-exist in the universe as the three
finite forms of light (photons, electrons and gimmel), congealed by the distinctive action of a primary form of
awareness, which metaphorically said: “Let there be light” and light transitioned
from the multi-dimensional realm of Primary Consciousness, from conceptual to
existential, guided by the dimensionometry of gimmel in space-time, into the
physical universe. Applications of the CoDD and dimensional extrapolation also
reveal that time, like space, is three-dimensional, and that in
three-dimensional time, there are no absolute beginnings or ends, only change.
In
the CoDD analysis, the law of conservation of mass and energy is naturally extended
to all of the substance of reality, namely mass, energy and consciousness,
which are conserved in all processes. This means that the concept of
nothingness is an illusion; there never has been nothing, and never will be
nothing. Primary Consciousness is the substance of reality and cannot be
destroyed. Its first manifestation in the physical universe is light, a
vibratory form of energy that becomes gimmel, mass and physical force as it
weaves the structure of the reality we experience as part of the structure,
without ever losing our true nature as parts, like tiny sparks of Primary
Consciousness, evolving toward reunion with the source. Light becomes
electrons, electrons become quarks, quarks combine under the guidance of gimmel
to become protons, neutrons, and everything else.
I
believe there will always be light and shadow, energy and mass, mind and
consciousness, in never-ending cycles of creation, sustained physical existence,
and destruction, as a flow of consciousness from Primary Consciousness to the
physical universe and back again. The purpose of existence of the physical
universe is to provide a finite stage for Primary Consciousness to experience reality
through drawing the distinctions of individualized sparks of awareness, - that’s us,
and our purpose is to expand our awareness until we become “Gleichwertig”, the
same as Primary Consciousness. And I find it encouraging and comforting that within
the framework of understanding the nature of light, using our God-given minds
and the primary logic of the CoDD, all meaningful questions are
answerable.
