A
SUMMARY OF THE PARADIGM SHIFT TO CONSCIOUSNESS
With this post I have now published 212 dissertations on
this site. They have been posted over the past 3 years and 8 months in an
effort to make the results of the work of a lifetime of almost 80 years
available to anyone who is interested. For many years I have believed that mainstream
science has tragically wandered into the dead end of materialism, and I have also
believed that it can be put back on the track to real discovery and positive
progress by recognizing that the physical universe available to our senses is
in fact, only a small part of reality. I also expected that when consciousness
is properly included in the equations comprising the scientific model of
reality, new horizons beyond belief would be opened. That expectation has been
slowly realized over the past 30 years. The pace of important findings and
discoveries has increased significantly over the last six plus years during
which I have worked in collaboration with Dr. Vernon M. Neppe.
In this post, I will attempt to summarize what I consider to
be the most important findings in a way that anyone can understand. I believe
it is important that I do so, because right
now is the time that the truth I have been privileged to help bring to
light is more important than ever before. We stand right now at the most
critical juncture in human history. We can choose to go beyond the limitations
of mechanical animal existence with the development of human consciousness and
achieve the real purpose of all existence, or we can become just another failed
species. The choice is ours.
Why is this information so critical at this time? Because mainstream
science, while wonderfully successful at improving our animal comforts,
technical applications, and the ability to destroy ourselves, has failed us
miserably by turning its back on the part of reality that is most important to
our survival: the spiritual essence of being, of which physical existence is
but a miniscule part. It is time for scientists to open their eyes to the vast
reality that lies beyond the purely physical.
THE PURPOSE: SPIRITUAL PROGRESS
The most important development of human civilization, and
consciousness in general, is real spiritual advancement. Physical and
intellectual development can be supportive of spiritual advancement, but they
are secondary to genuine spiritual progress which underlies and drives all
positive change. Social, political and philosophical development have often run
counter to real spiritual advancement because institutional behavior tends to
magnify the weaknesses and negative traits of the individual. The larger the institution,
even though it may be organized with good intent, the more it magnifies negative
tendencies. We will allow things to happen in the name of country, organized
religion, or even institutional science that we would never do as individuals.
MATHEMATICS AND CIVILIZATION
What I wish to illuminate here is the backbone of the logic of
reality, reflected in certain aspects of the history of mathematics and the
corresponding rise and fall of civilization on this planet. It is hidden in three
threads running through the conscious minds of mathematicians, natural
philosophers and scientists from the end of the last ice age, about 12,000 BC,
to the time of the known ancient civilizations: the Sumerians (4000 – 1600 BC),
the Minoans (3000 – 1400 BC), and the Ancient Egyptians (4000 -1200 BC), to the
Greeks: Thales (624 – 527 BC), Pythagoras (569 – 495 BC), Plato (428 -348 BC),
Aristotle (384 – 322 BC), Euclid (330 – 260 BC), Archimedes (287 – 212 BC), Eratosthenes
(276 – 194 BC), Hipparchus (190 – 120 BC), Geminus (10 BC – 60 AD), Menelaus
(70 – 130), Ptolemy (85 – 165), Diophantus (200 – 284 ), and Theron (335 – 405),
to the Arabs and Persians: Al-Khwarizmi (780 – 850), Abu Kamil (850 – 930), Omar
Khayyam (1048 – 1131), to the Western Europeans: Fibonacci (1170 – 1250), Levi
ben Gerson (1288 – 1344), Nicholas Kryffs (1401 – 1464), Cardan (1501 – 1576), Fermat
(1601 – 1665), Leibniz (1646 – 1716), Euler (1707 – 1783), Gauss (1777 – 1855),
Georg Cantor (1845 – 1918), Max Planck (1858 – 1947), Hermann Minkowski (1804 –
1909), Albert Einstein (1879 – 1955), Wolfgang Pauli (1900 – 1958), Kurt Gӧdel (1906
-1978), and G. Spencer Brown (1923 - ).
The gap from 1200 BC to 600 BC, between the end of the known ancient
civilizations and the development of mathematics by the Greeks was bridged to
some extent by Chinese, Hindu and Hebrew mathematics.
The idea that mathematics and civilization have advanced
from virtually nothing to the current status during the past 3000 years is a
fiction derived from the egoism of Western science, and it is a fiction not
supported by fact. It is more likely that the viewpoint of Sri Yukteswar Giri (“The
Holy Science”, written in 1894), derived from ancient Vedic texts, is true. Sri
Yukteswar concludes that the development of consciousness, and consequently
civilization, is cyclic, like everything else. There is ample evidence for this
all over the planet. There are many megalithic structures dating from during,
and even before the known ancient civilizations that we cannot duplicate today.
The construction of many of them, like Gobeki Tepe in Turkey (dated about
10,000 BC), the Aswan obelisk (dated about 1500 BC) and Puma Punku in Peru (dated
about 500 AD) required mathematics and engineering techniques unknown to
mainstream science today.
MATHEMATICS REFLECTS THE LOGIC OF
REALITY
The three threads of mathematics reflecting the logic of
reality are the threads of geometry, algebra and number theory. How do these three
aspects of mathematics reflect and describe the nature of reality? The images constructed
in conscious minds depend upon the ability of conscious entities to recognize
distinctions, - first the distinction of self from other, and then the recognition
of finite distinctions (objects) within self and other. Distinctions consist of
distinct shapes, with specific properties and meanings. Shapes, (geometric
forms) are described using variables of extent,
like height, width and depth. Distinct shapes may contain variable amounts of
mass and energy, which may be described using variables of content. Distinctions existing in reality may also have other properties
that impact the consciousness of the observer, or have meaning to the observer,
like mechanical or organic motivation, that may be described in variables of impact
or intent that are relative to the status of the observing entity. Mathematics is the logical language describing
the distinctions making up the structure and dynamics of reality in terms of
the variables of extent, content and impact or intent.
WHAT IS A CALCULUS?
A calculus is a system of logical operations that permit
calculation, where calculation is defined as the transformation of distinctions
of one form into an equivalent distinction or distinctions of another form or
forms. The operations that make up a calculus are the logical processes of the differentiation
of variables, combination of shapes and integration of the properties of the
distinctions to which the calculus applies. Every calculus has an arithmetic, an
algebra and a scope of application. The details of calculi in general and the differential
and integral calculus of Newton and Leibniz in particular, known for 300 years
as ‘the calculus’ are beyond the scope of this post, but can be found in
advanced mathematics texts. But it is relevant here to point out that the arithmetic
of a calculus is based on quantitative distinction, enumeration and equivalence,
and the operations that define the arithmetic are addition, subtraction,
multiplication, and division, which may be commutative and/or associative,
depending on the properties of the group of distinctions to which it applies.
FINDING THE APPROPRIATE CALCULUS TO
MODEL REALITY
As explained in previous posts, the calculus of Newton and
Leibniz is only applicable in the mid-range scale of reality. It yields erroneous
results at the extremely large scale of relative velocity and space-time, and
it gives inaccurate, and sometimes wildly incorrect results at the extremely
small scale of the quantum. The solution at the upper extremes of observation
and measurement is not difficult. Accurate calculations and predictions are
obtained by applying relativistic corrections. But the solution at the lower
extreme is a bit more difficult. It requires a calculus of discrete variables.
Some of the elements of such a calculus are already available to us in the
works of some of the mathematicians and scientists listed above. They are
specifically: Pythagoras, Euclid, Diophantus, Fermat, Planck, Minkowski,
Einstein, Gӧdel, Pauli, and Brown. Adapting and expanding Brown’s Laws of Form,
applying Gӧdel’s incompleteness Theorem, the multi-dimensional approach of
Pauli and Minkowski, Einstein’s relativity, Planck’s quantization, the Pythagorean
theorem, Euclid’s axiomatic approach, and Fermat’s Last theorem (see the Posts
on putting consciousness into the equations), I derived the Calculus of
Distinctions, Dimensional Extrapolation, the Conveyance Equation, and the TRUE
quantum unit, as the most basic distinction of quantized reality. This approach
completes the re-uniting of geometry, Diophantine algebra and number theory in
a logical system capable of modeling reality. The result is the new mathematics
of TDVP, the appropriate metaphysical basis for exploring the nature of
reality.
SUMMARY OF THE SUMMARY
The Triadic Dimensional Vortical Paradigm (TDVP) has provided a
comprehensive model resolving paradoxes, and answering numerous questions that
have puzzled mainstream scientists for decades. See lists and details in
previous posts. The mathematics of TDVP describes the quantized geology,
algebra and numerical nature of reality in terms of a truly quantum unit, the Triadic
Rotational Unit of Equivalence derived from Large Hadron Collider data, and the
principles of relativity and quantum physics.
Application of TRUE analysis to quarks, electrons, protons
and neutrons, and the natural elements of the Periodic Table, has revealed a
reality of three spatial dimensions, three time-like dimensions, and three dimensions
of consciousness embedded in an infinite substrate of intelligence. It has also
revealed the necessity of a third non-material form of the essence of reality
that must exist in the universe in order for the dynamically stable structures
of the universe to exist. So now we know why the universe is so fine tuned for
life. Finite manifestation of Cosmic Consciousness, in the form of gimmel, the
third form of the essence of reality, had to exist before the first particle of
the physical universe could form, and thus we have the answers to the most
basic puzzles of all: Why there is something instead of nothing? Who are we,
and what is the meaning of existence and the purpose of life?
We are sparks of
the Infinite, inhabiting finite vehicles in space-time in order to learn how to
live and grow into our cosmic potential.
