NEW APPROACH PART SIXTEEN - PRACTICAL APPLICATION

 


SIXTEEN: THE PARADIGM SHIFT and PRACTICAL APPLICATION

© Copyright 2022, Edward R. Close, PhD

Visionary thinkers have dreamt of the expansion of science into the realm of humanity’s spiritual experiences and growth potential for hundreds of years; but it is the discovery of gimmel, the quantifiable non-physical content of reality that marks the end of the false doctrine of materialism and the beginning of the paradigm shift from dark-age mechanistic science to the more comprehensive enlightened-age science of mental, physical, and spiritual awareness. But because we are only a relatively short distance past the lowest point in our solar system’s cycle of spiritual development, as explained in previous posts, progress is frustratingly slow, especially for those who are just beginning to awaken on or near the leading edge of consciousness expansion.

I’ve written about the widely believed erroneous assumption that time is uniform throughout the universe many times before this, and, of course, the correction of that false assumption was Einstein’s major, most important contribution to science, but the relationship between relativistic time and consciousness still eludes mainstream science and most of humanity, so it’s worth emphasizing it again here. Just as the experience of visible light, the passage of time and the attendant entropic physical effects are localized phenomena, so is the expansion or decline of individual consciousness. The importance of this fact cannot be over-emphasized because the implications are so profound and far-reaching.

While the effects of planetary and solar-system time affect consciousness expansion in general, individual sentient beings can progress individually because their progress or lack thereof also depends upon their individual choices of what to believe and their willful actions. So, not only will the average mental, physical, and spiritual evolution vary from galaxy to galaxy, solar system to solar system, and planet to planet, but also from individual to individual on a given planet.

Individual progress is frustratingly slow, especially for those who are just beginning to awaken, because once you understand what the purpose of existence really is, you want to reach the ultimate goal as soon as you possibly can. This is perhaps the hardest paradox of spiritual awakening to come to grips with, because at that point, you know that the evil which causes so much suffering in the world is an illusion of darkness that will disappear as soon as there is enough light, but most of the world around you is still enthralled in the delusion of ego aggrandizement, and the least spiritually developed human beings often fight their way to the top of the rat race, where they feed their false egos by trying to control everyone else.

This evil game of domination continues until a majority of individuals are enlightened. In the meantime, those who have begun to sense the real goal, and perhaps have even glimpsed its glory, seek practical ways to mitigate the negative effects of ego attachment, including envy, hate, and greed, human traits that almost always lead to corruption, violence, pain, and suffering. Life often becomes stressful for spiritually awakening souls, as the world slowly exits the dark ages of materialism, and evil desperately tries to hold on to the rule of the physical world that it has enjoyed for so long, while we yearn for justice, freedom, and the joy of the ultimate goal of Cosmic Consciousness.

Those of us alive on this planet right now are influenced to a greater or lesser extent, depending upon our individual level of spiritual consciousness, by the still predominantly mechanistic mode of thought in this world, and we often think there should be technologies that we can employ to change the world. Because of this, there are many books and online courses from gurus or life coaches who claim to be able to teach us how to manifest the kind of world we wish to experience, or somehow move our consciousness miraculously into a parallel universe where we can be healthier, wealthier, wiser, and happier than we are in this one. While some of them offer good advice with tips for better living, most fail to transform our consciousness very much, and fall far short of solving the problem of evil in the world.

Traditionally, we have turned to religion to combat the evil of the world, but there is also a major problem with religious organizations at this point in planetary time. The evil “sufficient unto the day” spoken of by Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount, has infiltrated the organized religions of the world during the dark ages of materialism. History is full of examples. Perhaps the most obvious example in Western Civilization is the infiltration and control of Christian Churches by evil forces. It has happened to most, if not all of them, on many different levels.

The Roman Catholic Church is a good example, not necessarily because it is the worst, but because it is the oldest, well-organized Christian Church. It was infiltrated by evil from its very beginning. The Romans crucified Peter in 67 AD during the reign of Nero, and replaced him with a Roman puppet designated as Pope, i.e., the head of the Church, so that the government could control the growing threat that the followers of Jesus posed to the self-proclaimed divinity of the Roman Emperors. And, even though it is a matter of record, most people don’t realize that the Vatican actually backed Hitler during WWII and helped fund his war efforts. In return for its support, the Church would be the official State Religion of the third Reich upon world domination. For more details about this, you can research historical records, or see Secrets of the Sacred Cube, Part VI, Patterns of Good and Evil, pages 177-228.

Most religions that have gained world-wide recognition started with the best of intentions, based on the teachings of a fully realized Spiritual Master and that realized one’s immediate disciples, but lesser beings who subsequently gained control as protectors and organizers of the faith, out of ignorance and the evils of ego and greed, subverted part, or all of those organizations into the exact opposite of what the spiritual master they claim as their founder actually taught. The evil hid behind the façade of righteousness.

What is the answer to this conundrum of spiritual awakening in a world in which the majority of the population is still held under the sway of dark-age evil and even threatened with extinction? Is there a way to transform the prevalent darkness of this moment of planetary spacetime into light, at least locally, for at least one or a few individuals, for at least a significant period of time? Yes, there is, but it is not as easy as reading a book, taking a pill, or learning a mantra, and the “evil sufficient unto the day’ is still working to undermine and subvert it. Almost as bad as it was in the first century AD, as a conscious being in this world, you are in a divided and bewildering place and time, thanks to the efforts of evil whose modus operandi is to divide and conquer.

So, as a spiritually awakening soul who has had a glimpse of the goal, you are confronted with a problem composed of at least three complex and challenging questions: 1) Exactly who are you? 2) How can you recognize what can help or hinder your physical, mental, and spiritual progress? And 3) how can you find the path leading to the ultimate goal? The TDVP model of reality provides the scientific basis for answering these questions, and if you can find the answers, then you will be able to find practical solutions to all the problems of your life, including the problems of spiritual awakening.

Discussing each of these questions in meaningful detail will require a lengthy blogpost, so I will pause here, with the intention of starting with the first of the three questions in the next post.

THE ONE

 


YOU ARE THE ONE

Who saw the brilliance of the light,

Streaming forth from Eden?

Who took a step and that first bite,

To taste of love and freedom?

 

Who was the one who stood enthralled,

Tasting some, and wanting more,

As, with stunning beauty, Nature called,

Who was it, wanting to explore?

 

Who gazed upon the valleys green, mountains high,

Flowering fields, and oceans blue?

Who longed to plumb the depths, and touch the sky,

Was not that someone really you?

 

A billion days, a billion nights,

Spiraling round and round the sun,

Seeking all the thrills and sights,

Until all the lights merged as one.

 

And finally, now the truth is plain:

The choice is clearly understood.

Your soul is not within your brain,

Where evil lurks beside the Good.

 

Choose to wake from finite sleep,

And know you are a Royal Heir.

And coming from the cosmos, deep,

His Love for you is everywhere!

 

It blossoms forth in every rose,

In every sunbeam’s thrilling hue,

It is right there, beneath your nose,

Love is, and always has been, YOU!

 

You’ve slept my Dear, for far too long,

Dreaming dreams of moon and sun,

But now it’s time to sing your song,

To wake and know YOU ARE THE ONE.

 

The cosmos waits to hear your voice,

You’ve won at last, the race is done,

But you must make the final choice,

To take His hand: AND BE THE ONE.

IF MY VIEW OF REALITY IS TRUE, THEN WHAT?

This post is intended to be a follow-on to the last two posts: THE HARVEST: PREDICTIONS, OPINIONS AND EXPLANATIONS and THE CHOICE. As with the last one, I will try to make this a stand-alone post by summarizing some of the major points of the blogposts leading up to and including the last two posts before I start, but I think it will still be helpful to read or re-read at least the two previous posts.

A Brief Summary:

In previous publications and posts, proof of the existence of a real, quantifiable, non-physical, part of reality has been presented. We (Close and Neppe) called that third component of reality gimmel, and we have shown that no stable physical reality is possible without it. The proof was made possible by measuring all observable occurrences of the elementary components of atoms in multiples of a minimum quantum equivalence unit defined by the mass and volume of the smallest free stable object, the electron. We found that all stable atoms are made up of integer multiples (i.e., whole numbers: 1, 2, 3, 4, …) of quantum equivalence units of mass, energy and gimmel.

 

The proof of the existence of a measurable non-physical part of reality is an important discovery for several reasons. It allows us to resolve some of the paradoxes in the current scientific model, and it provides several much more satisfactory explanations of some observations that are unexplained and simply accepted as “quantum weirdness” in the current mainstream theory known as the Standard Model of particle physics. We have listed more than fifty such explanations that are provided by our model, which we call the Triadic Dimensional Vortical Paradigm (TDVP). That alone validates TDVP as a better model of reality. But a much more important result of the discovery, in my opinion, is that TDVP provides a basic scientific framework for the study of consciousness, paranormal phenomena, and Spiritual Reality. Because of this, it also provides a logical, systematic way to analyze the current world crises, as struggles between good and evil, which is what these three blogposts are about.

 

Artificial Intelligence (AI):

Like everything else created by human beings in the universe of physical duality, AI has both good and bad applications. It is good when used as a tool for scientific investigation of matter and energy, freeing conscious minds for more important things, but when envisioned as the future of humanity, it is part of the same false, evil conceptual goal of an earthly  Marxist utopia. It promises a god-like existence of enhanced human capabilities, but, just like Marxist communism and socialism, it delivers only misery and slavery for human beings.

 

The current world crisis being used by evil, and the mis-guided enablers of evil, to try to transition humanity from the inequities imposed by a few greedy, unscrupulous billionaires who have taken advantage of free-market capitalism, to return to the even greater evils of the tyranny of Marxist class warfare, with the same greedy elitists installing themselves as the ruling class, is a prime example of how evil uses AI as a means to its ends. At this time of low mental and spiritual virtue, the vast majority of humanity is easy prey to the false lures of ease and leisure offered by AI technology. Once people become dependent upon AI devices like smart phones, personal computers and the internet, the reality that “an idle mind is the Devil’s workshop” becomes a reality.

 

The human time and energy freed up by reliance on AI devices should be used to move individual consciousness along the path toward the goal and purpose of existence: positive spiritual evolution. That is why the same evil behind the push for global Marxism is trying so hard to destroy religion and spiritual practices of any kind. The antidote to this psychotic spiritual illness is authentic spirituality based in the science of non-physical reality introduced by TDVP.

 

The Antidote:

TDVP re-integrates mathematical science and ontological philosophy into a natural epistemological understanding of human progress as spiritual progress, rather than a random walk into the inevitable destruction of maximum entropy predicted by mainstream scientific materialism. Another major advancement made possible by the discovery of gimmel is a deeper understanding of space, time, and conscious extent as dimensions of the structural forms of mass, energy, and conscious content. A mathematical process that I call dimensional extrapolation, is applicable to both physical and non-physical quantized phenomena, and when applied, it reveals that time and consciousness, like space, are three dimensional.

 

This means that reality is a logically consistent self-referential system of nine finite dimensions, embedded in an infinitely continuous substrate that is continually expanding out of and into itself. This model of reality is consistent with an infinite descent proof of Fermat’s Last Theorem, and with infinite ascent, it is consistent with Gödel’s incompleteness theorems. These results have many implications far beyond the scope of these posts, including the indication that the infinitely continuous substrate of reality is the most primary form of consciousness containing all possible logical structures. In my opinion, the infinitely continuous substrate, is the infinity of infinities, the source of all things, the all-in-one and the one-in-all, in simple English, the mind of God.

 

An understanding of the self-referential mathematical nature of reality that we are calling TDVP, reveals that all movement, including physical change, is driven by the evolution or degradation of the mental and spiritual virtue of consciousness, not just increasing or decreasing physical complexity. The discovery that non-physical gimmel is a major part of reality, the part that organizes mass and energy to form stable atomic structures, combined with the application of the mathematical process of infinite ascent, leads me to the conclusion that the source of all existence is an infinite self-referential Cosmic Mind, traditionally called God.

 

Even though we are currently in the ascending half of a 24,000-year planetary time cycle, with the average mental and spiritual virtue slowly increasing, as our planet spirals around the sun and the solar system moves along its elliptical path. The average state of spiritual virtue is still very low because of where we are in the cycle. It will take more than 10,000 years for us to again reach our nearest approach to the positive focus, the location of the Cosmic Source of consciousness. However, the state of consciousness of a given individual can be anywhere from being barely self-aware, to having complete Cosmic Consciousness, depending on the individual’s choices and actions in this and previous lives.

 

Choices that promote good physical and mental health, and advance one’s personal spiritual virtue are intrinsically good, and choices that undermine health and hamper or retard spiritual virtue are bad. Thus, good and evil are defined in terms of spiritual progress, and the purpose of existence is to provide opportunities for individuals to experience physical, mental, and spiritual reality as souls separate from Primary Consciousness, with opportunities to choose good or evil.

 

Proof of the existence of non-physical gimmel functioning as a conscious organizing component of quantum reality that creates stable atomic structures, present in the highest levels in elements like Hydrogen, Carbon, and Oxygen, found in conscious organic life forms, compared to then amount of gimmel in elements that do not support life, suggests that reality exists by intelligent design and this discovery expands the scientific model of reality into a paradigm that includes consciousness as a quantifiable and measurable variable. The discovery that gimmel is fundamental and as important to life as mass and energy, is a crucial step toward freeing science and the human psyche from the dead end of scientific materialism. It also provides science with a logical tool capable of describing and investigating paranormal and spiritual phenomena.

 

When the primary form of mathematical logic used in the TDVP model of reality is applied to the basic volumetric quantum combinations of the quarks that form protons and neutrons, it reveals the influence of Primary consciousness in elements that support life, and it proves that the most basic assumptions of materialism are wrong. And that eliminates Marxist communism and socialism as viable theories of reality.

 

The inclusion of consciousness as fundamental in TDVP makes finite reality triadic, contrasting with the duality of dialectical materialism where reality is assumed to be binary, consisting of polar opposites. Finite reality exists in the form of three types of distinctions measurable in variables of content: quantized mass, energy, and gimmel, the three essences of finite reality. These essential distinctions of content are organized in mathematically logical forms measurable in nine finite dimensions of extent: three of space, three of time, and three of consciousness.

 

The six finite distinctions of content and extent, i.e., mass, energy, gimmel, space, time, and localized consciousness, are finite manifestations of the spirit and logic of the infinite multi-dimensional field of Primary Consciousness, identified in TDVP as the substrate of reality. The substrate of reality is comparable to, and contrasts with, the concept in quantum field theory of the Zero-Point Field, and in various kinds of theology wityh the Source, the Void, or the Mind of God. The major difference, at least for me, is the realization that finite individual consciousness can be expanded to the point of direct contact and awareness of the infinite field of Primary Consciousness.

 

So, what does all this mean? Are there practical applications of all of this? Paradoxically, the discovery of the substrate of reality extending as gimmel, representing the organizing intent of non-physical reality within finite physically reality, actually simplifies everything!

 

Implications:

The implications of TDVP are profound, far-reaching, and exceedingly practical, if understood and applied.

 

v  God exists

“God” is a word that conveys different things to different people, depending on the internal model in each person’s mind. So, call it whatever makes sense to you, but know that its’ existence is no longer a matter of philosophical debate. The existence of Infinite Intelligence has been proved. It cannot be fully described in the finite verbiage of any language, but it has been proved mathematically and can be experienced directly. The infinite field of consciousness exists. It is the substrate of reality. It exists, has always existed, and will always exist. Its’ existence has been proved by infinite ascent/descent using the primary calculus of dimensional distinctions, and it can be proved by anyone who masters the mathematics of TDVP, and by direct experience in expanded consciousness. A list of references including the proof of the existence of non-physical reality is posted at the end of the first of this series of three blogposts.

 

v  Existence has Meaning and Purpose

With direct experience of the Infinite through expanded consciousness, it becomes clear that existence has meaning and purpose. Its’ meaning is found in the direct personal experience of Christ Consciousness and Cosmic Consciousness, and its’ purpose is to provide a venue, or “stage” for the spiritual evolution of souls.

 

v  For Every Question there is an Answer

This is a basic principle that was stated by the famous polymath Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz in the late 17th century. Because there are some people who think this principle is brought into question by Gödel’s incompleteness theorems, I will address this briefly here.

 

Gödel’s first theorem states that no mathematically consistent system with theorems that can be listed and enumerated in any way, is capable of proving all of the known true statements about the arithmetic of natural numbers (The arithmetic of the integers: 1, 2, 3, …). For any consistent system based on a specific finite number of axioms, there will always be statements about the natural numbers that are true but that cannot be proved within the system. The second theorem generalizes the first theorem by showing that no internally consistent finite logical system can prove its own consistency.

 

Reality is a consistent logical system. If it were not, there would be no stable universe. And while the physical universe is a finite logical system at any moment in time, the totality of reality, including the infinite conscious substrate, is infinite. Two things follow from this: 1) In a finite logical system describing reality, it will always be possible to make true statements that cannot be proved within the system in which they are stated. 2) Statements unprovable in a given finite system of logic may be provable in a logical system expanded to describe more of reality by adding appropriate axioms.

 

For readers without the background or time and patience to become familiar with the calculus of dimensional distinctions and Gödel’s proofs, what I am saying, is simply this:

 

While in any understanding of reality, e.g., your own mental model of reality, or any scientific “theory of everything”, it is possible to say things that are true but that cannot be proved, those true statements will be provable in a more complete model of reality. And a more complete model of reality is always possible by the expansion of consciousness, because reality is infinite.

 

 

P.S.: A Final Encouraging Note:

Based on the principle that truth will always outlast lies, and re-assert itself, regardless of how successful the lies become when repeated over extended periods of time, I have maintained that the evil that has been perpetrated by the self-appointed “elite” global socialist psychopaths cannot, and will not prevail, and that the evil of false prophets will always self-destruct. I am happy to report that we are seeing that beginning to happen now. It is happening in a natural and predictable way. It is beginning where the insidiously evil subversion of democracy using Marxist tactics started in the US, more than 60 years ago: in public education.

 

I saw the beginning of the subversion of free education in the early 1960s when I was teaching mathematics in public schools. Slowly, over the past 60 years, step-by-step, public education has changed from an effort to create a nation of people who, regardless of their station in life, would have the basic reading, writing, mathematics, and thinking skills, that could make them capable of self-governance, to a tax-payer-supported front being used to spread socialist propaganda, and create a proletariat, i.e., a working class that could be controlled by the elite ruling class.

 

We were a nation predominantly of European heritage, and even though most of our ancestors came to America to escape the tyranny of the elite ruling classes of their native countries, class-based thinking was deeply rooted in some, who happily embarked on political careers, seeing their opportunity to become part of a new ruling class. While they could not establish themselves as an absolute monarchy, the Marxist-based ideologies of various forms of socialism were handy templates for them to use to gain the power they desired.

 

But the seeds of self-destruction are always present in tyrannical Marxist-based socialist political systems. In this case, ironically, it is their use of the Covid pandemic to promote fear and division in order to speed up their take-over, that is their undoing! With the shut-down of elementary and secondary public education for more than a year, parents began to see on the remote-learning computer screens, the propaganda designed to poison their children’s minds with Marxist class-division thinking that has been building up in public education for years.

 

The Final Word:

Who can stop this madness? You are the One.

CAN WE KNOW THE TRUTH ABOUT THE COVID-19 CRISIS?


WHAT IS THE TRUTH?
© 2020 Edward R Close
In the current situation, with the world awash in conspiracy theories, how can anyone know what the truth is? Very often, the debunkers of conspiracy theories have fewer actual facts about the subject in question, than the conspiracy theorists do. So, what to do? One answer is to do your own research. Try to find an unbiased source, and look for the truth yourself. This sounds so simple and basic, but is it? How does one determine the truth for one’s self? What is the truth about 5G? Is there a deep state? evidence Does anyone really have the time, patience, brain power, and intensity of effort to search for and find the truth about any very complex question like this? Or do we have to settle for what we believe, or can be led to believe, as the truth? This is not a trivial question!

I have been told that I have one of the highest IQs ever recorded. If that’s true, shouldn’t I be able to get to the bottom of just about any reasonable question that anyone might ask? Marilyn vos Savant of St. Louis Missouri, listed in the Guinness Book of Records as having the highest IQ ever recorded, has implied that she can answer just about any question. She has written and published a column called “Ask Marilyn” since 1986, where she attempts to do just that. One of the greatest recognized genius polymaths of all time, Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, said “For every question there is an answer”. Well actually he probably said “Für jede berechtigte Frage gibt es eine Antwort“ - because he was German. Anyway, what I want to ask, and try to answer here, is the question: Can the truth be discovered by force of pure intellect alone? The answer is NO! And, of course, as you might expect, I am going to tell you why the answer is no, just in case you might like to know.

Pure intellect operates on the principles of logic. And one proceeds from question to answer by one or both of two methods of reasoning that are called induction and deduction. Induction is reasoning from the specific to the general, and deduction is reasoning from the general to the specific. Together, with some additional conditions, they make up the scientific method.

Induction: start with observations > detect a pattern in the observations > describe the pattern in the form of a hypothetical theory > if all observations conform to the pattern, accept the theory as true.

Deduction: Start with a theory that has been confirmed by induction > form a hypothesis about a specific situation > make observations > if the observations conform to the theory, accept the hypothesis as true.

The Austrian-born British philosopher of science, Karl Popper, declared that for a hypothesis to be scientific, it must be falsifiable. This has been generally accepted by mainstream scientists as part of the scientific method. What this means, in plain English, is that if a hypothesis, - general or specific - can’t be tested by inductive or deductive reasoning, then it isn’t a valid scientific hypothesis. However, if the falsifiability requirement is rigorously applied, most of the basic concepts that mainstream science is based on today cannot be considered to be scientific! The basic concepts underlying physical, biological, chemical, medical, and especially psychological science were just feasible assumptions, not falsifiable hypotheses. That’s a topic that Dr. Neppe and I have already discussed pretty extensively. The reason I bring it up here is that it illustrates an unescapable fact: pure intellectual reasoning cannot be used to determine truth!

To really understand why this is true, we have to look a little deeper into intellectual reasoning. Take anything you consider to be true, and look carefully at why you accept it to be true. You will find one of two things: either you have accepted it from someone else who is considered to be an authority, or you figured it out for yourself. In either case, the reasoning can always be traced back to what logicians call at least one a priori assumption. What is an a priori assumption? It is something that is believed to be self-evident and untestable. In other words, something that either appears to be so obvious that there is no need to prove it, or something that is not falsifiable. But, of course in that case, it is also unscientific.

My point is that intellect alone, however powerful, cannot determine the ultimate truth or falsity of a statement, because something proved by logical reasoning, is only true if the a priori assumptions it is derived from are true. The inductive and deductive reasoning process used in the determination of truth or falsity always start with a priori assumptions. This is one reason why scientific truth is always changing. The history of science, just during the last seventy years, which is about how long I’ve been aware of such things, is sprinkled with concepts that were once considered to be either true or false beyond doubt, that are now considered to be exactly the opposite. Scientific hypotheses proved to be either true or false, have often been overturned after a major scientific discovery. Examples of such reversals include Earth-centered models of the universe, Darwinian evolution, continental drift, single point human origin, the fixed size of the universe, and our understanding of the nature of space and time, matter and energy! We like to think that intellectual reasoning and the scientific method are infallible and that their application lead to the establishment of  universal truths that will never change, but that simply is not true.

So, what is truth? From an intellectual point of view, there is no such thing as absolute truth. What might be even more surprising to many, is the demonstrable fact that almost everything we think we know about physical reality is illusory. The idea that a physical object, like your physical body, is can ever be at rest in space and time, is perhaps the most beguiling illusion of all. I may think I am sitting completely unmoving and still in my chair in my home, but at this latitude, I am actually racing around the center of the earth at about 800 miles per hour, and at the same time I am moving around the sun at about 67,000 miles per hour. Why don’t I feel the effects of this motion? Experience with lesser motions tell me that I should. I certainly feel the effects of going around a curve in an automobile, or changing direction in an airline jet.  

Why don’t I feel the effects of whirling around the curvature of the earth or the curvature of the earth’s orbit around the sun? There is an answer for this question, having to do with the way the human body compensates for the effects of those motions, but it would take several pages to explain, and for the purpose of this post, it would be a side-track, so I’ll leave it for you to reason out for yourself, if you want to. The point is that things that we assume to be true in the physical world are often illusions created by our physical senses. There is growing evidence that neasrly everything we once thought we knew is wrong, and even what we believe now about physical reality we exist in may be illusory. This is at least part of the reason that scientific truth is a moving target.

There are many examples of how scientific truth changes over time. Modern science has revealed that, contrary to what our senses tell us, matter is not solid, space and time have no independent existence of their own, and we have no idea where everything came from, or where it’s going. The only thing about the physical universe for which we have indisputable evidence, is that it is dynamic. It is constantly changing. If some of those changes, like the movements of the sun, moon and planets weren’t cyclic or periodic, science wouldn’t be able to predict hardly anything, and our understanding of physical reality would be like shifting sand beneath our feet.

Mainstream scientists, philosophers and logicians would have you believe that there really is no such thing as absolute truth. Adding to this uncertain state of affairs, lawyers, politicians and liars, (but, as Mark Twain famously said, I repeat myself!) tell us that reality is whatever they can make us believe it is. They seek to persuade us to believe in realities that doesn’t actually exist. So, if our physical senses, lawyers and politicians work in ways that fools us, hiding more about reality than they reveal, where do we go to find the truth? The answer to this puzzling question is as simple as it is profound: We mut look to that which we experience directly.

We certainly do not experience the physical world directly. The sonic and optical sciences and related neurology make that clear. Our sense organs receive impulses of energy bouncing off of physical objects which travel along neurological paths to our brains, where images are formed that we take to be consistent with reality. But as we noted above, this process often creates illusions. What do we experience directly? That would be consciousness. But consciousness has been very carefully deliberately kept out of science and intellectual analysis throughout the history of modern civilization. The creation of a truly quantum calculus (see earlier posts) leading to the discovery of gimmel, the non-physical part of reality, changes all that. It allows us to put consciousness into the equations of science, and expand our analyses beyond the physical. Thanks to this discovery, we are now at the point where Nikola Tesla’s prediction may actually come true: "The day science begins to study non-physical phenomena, it will make more progress in one decade than in all the previous centuries of its existence.”

Question: How does all this help us find the truth about the COVID-19 crisis? Answer: It gives us a way to determine the validity of any hypothesis, even a conspiracy theory. How it does this will take a little more explaining, but the effort on my part to present the explanation, and the effort on your part to read it, is, in my opinion, worthwhile. It will serve as another example of the power of quantum mathematics in the form of my Calculus of Dimensional Distinctions (CoDD), and as another validation of the Close-Neppe paradigm shift to a consciousness-based model of reality known as TDVP (the Triadic Dimensional Distinction Paradigm).

The good news is that once the most accurate, validated model of the crisis, developed in conventional math, has been converted to a corresponding quantum math model, and a specific conspiracy theory has also been converted into the quantum math as a hypothesis, that specific conspiracy theory can be falsified or validated very quickly and easily. The bad news is that the conversion of the model and the conspiracy theory to the equivalent quantum math forms can be very difficult and time consuming. To understand why this is so, see my introduction to the CoDD in Appendix B of the AAPS Vol. 1, Is Consciousness Primary? and George Spencer Brown’s Interpretation of the calculus for logic, in Laws of Form.

Finally, when the truth is known, what can we do, and what should we do? These are important questions that we must find a way to answer. TDVP and the discovery of gimmel gives us hope, and a new, more powerful way to solve such problems.
