The Dynamic Unity of Reality

And those whose hearts are fixed on Reality itself deserve the title of Philosophers.
(Plato, Republic, 380BC)
Denying realism amounts to megalomania
(the most widespread occupational disease of the professional philosopher).
(Karl Popper, 1975)
Hi and welcome everyone (March, 2011)
This website is about truth and reality - about how you and everything around you exist in space. We have an extensive collection of pages on many of the greatest minds from history, with thousands of brilliant quotes that are both inspiring and profoundly important. More than this though, we provide a simple solution to many of the problems of knowledge that have caused humanity so much conflict and confusion.
And yes, we do realise that people are skeptical of websites on truth and reality. But the solution is obvious once known - it just takes our minds a while to adjust to new ways of thinking.
This page is divided into three parts;
1. Summary: On Truth and Reality - the Wave Structure of Matter
2. Latest Work (Most Important Pages)
3. Four Main Functions of this Website

1. Summary: Truth & Reality: Wave Structure of Matter

Leibniz - Reality cannot be found except in One single source, because of the interconnection of all things with one another.Reality cannot be found except in One single source, because of the interconnection of all things with one another. ... I maintain also that substances, whether material or immaterial, cannot be conceived in their bare essence without any activity, activity being of the essence of substance in general. (Gottfried Leibniz, 1670)
Bradley. On Metaphysics and the Dynamic Unity of Reality. (Bradley, 1846-1924) We may agree, perhaps, to understand by Metaphysics an attempt to know reality as against mere appearance, or the study of first principles or ultimate truths, or again the effort to comprehend the universe, not simply piecemeal or by fragments, but somehow as a whole.

The Error - The Motion of Discrete Particles in Space and Time

For the past 350 years (since Newton) we have tried to describe an interconnected reality (which has been known for thousands of years) with many discrete and separate 'particles'. Thus you have to add forces or fields to the particles to connect them together in space and time. This is merely a mathematical solution and it does not explain how discrete matter particles create continuous fields that act on other particles in the space around them. Further, both quantum physics (particle-wave duality, non-locality, uncertainty) and Einstein's general relativity (matter-energy curves space-time) contradict the concept of discrete and separate 'particles'.

The Solution - The Wave Motion of Space Causes Matter and Time

We simply needed to describe reality from the most simple foundation of the one thing, Space, that all matter exists in (look around you now and think about this - we all experience existing in space).
This leads to only one solution, a Wave Structure of Matter in Space from which we then deduce the fundamentals of physics, philosophy and metaphysics to show that it is correct (and scientific / testable, not just our opinion).
The Wave Structure of Matter in Space Fig. 1: There is no particle-wave duality of matter, just a spherical standing wave structure of matter where the wave center creates the 'particle' effect, and the spherical in and out waves provide continual two way communication with all other matter in the universe.

We only see the high wave amplitude wave-center and have been deluded into thinking matter was made of tiny little 'particles'. A very naive conception in hindsight - and quantum physics was telling us all along that waves were central to light and matter interactions!

Deducing Reality. Logic from Uniting Metaphysics with Science

I wish to emphasise that none of this is my opinion - everyone will come to the same conclusions (they are deduced).
1. Deduce the most simple science theory of reality (apply Occam's razor to science itself). This brings science into harmony with metaphysics and the foundations of all knowledge - that there must be one substance that causes and connects the many things we experience.
As we all experience many minds and many material bodies (humans and other objects) but always in one common space, then to abide by the rules of science (empirical / senses) and metaphysics (one substance) we must describe reality in terms of this one common space we all experience.
2. Deduce from the Wave Structure of Matter and see how it compares to modern physics. We find that it works perfectly, deducing the central elements of quantum physics, Einstein's relativity and Cosmology correctly, while removing the confusion and paradox.
We have a page of wave diagrams that will help you visualise the spherical standing wave structure of matter (WSM) in space.
Spherical standing wave. On truth and reality, the metaphysics, philosophy and physics of space.Fig.2: The electron has a spherical in / out wave structure. The wave-center forms the 'particle' effect, the spherical in and out waves explain the continual two way communication / interconnection of matter in space.

The wave center of the spherical in and out waves forms high wave amplitude coherent waves, thus this is where the wave interactions / energy exchanges occur, which gives the appearance of discrete matter 'particles'.
Light is discrete because of resonance between bound electrons, causing them to change their wave functions.
 

The Importance of Truth and Reality as the Source of Wisdom

This knowledge of the Wave Structure of Matter in Space provides us with a 'source code' from which we can deduce the truth as a foundation for acting wisely.
Clearly humanity now faces many problems caused by myths and customs that result in endless conflict and harm. Thus knowing the truth about physical reality is critically important for our future survival on our fragile and beautiful little planet.
Basically I hope to make it obvious to people that are either sensible and logical, or enlightened spiritual / religious that we have worked out physical reality (matter-energy interactions in space). To show you that we can perfectly imagine matter interactions in space - they are just wave interactions.
Then you will understand that this whole postmodern uncertainty and skepticism arose from trying to describe an interconnected reality (where matter is a large structure of space) with many discrete and separate particles.
If you agree, please help share this knowledge. We are tantalizingly close to success, with over 600,000 page views each week and ranking in the top 5 in Bing (Microsoft / Yahoo) and top 20 in Google for many of the main subjects of human knowledge (e.g. philosophy, quantum physics, mathematical physics, theory of relativity, Einstein's relativity, cosmology, ...)
Our existence in the universe is amazing, our bodies subtly connected to all this other matter in the space around us (this is why we can see and interact with it). Currently humanity does not live from these 'connected' foundations, and this 'insanity' is causing the destruction of life on earth that will have catastrophic consequences for all of us.
The cure is a correct understanding of physical reality and the necessary truths that are derived from this. There are many others who now realise this, that truth is the most powerful force for changing the world and saving humanity.

2. Latest Essays - February 2010

The following articles have been re-written over the past two months. They are the most important / useful pages for understanding how the WSM works, why I am convinced it is true.
Truth Statements on Physical Reality - These truth statements show people how to deduce physical reality for themselves and confirm it is true. It also provides a very concise summary of the central things the WSM explains. See if you can show any statement is not true.
Wave Equation in an Elastic Wave Medium - Deducing the famous energy equations, Einstein's E=mc2, Planck's E=hf and Newton's F=ma from simple wave equations in an elastic medium (space). This confirms that the equivalence of matter and energy is because matter is made of waves, and waves propagate energy. All forces are due to changes in wave velocity.
The Laws of Nature - The Wave Structure of Matter (WSM) deduces the laws of Nature that have been empirically observed and quantified over the past several centuries. This changes the foundations of science / physics from inductive (uncertain) to deductive (certain).
Metaphysics - Solving the central problem of metaphysics - what is the one active substance that causes and connects the many changing material things we experience. The solution is simple, space is a wave medium and contains wave motions. i.e. From the motion of matter particles in space and time, to the wave motion of space that causes matter and time.
Cosmology - Explaining how our observable universe exists as a finite spherical region of infinite eternal space.
Theology God Religion - Defining god in terms of the one infinite eternal substance that exists.
Free Will Vs. Determinism - How we can have limited freedom and limited determinism in a necessarily interconnected reality of waves in space.
The Insanity of Humanity - A list of the insane things that we are doing on Earth that are causing the destruction of Nature and the pollution of air, water and food - basically destroying / poisoning the things that we depend upon for our future survival. (I hope people will contribute to the list.)
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) - I am building this FAQ page as I answer questions that people have posted on this site. So help us help you by posting questions!
Also see the main pages on the left (I am working on these over the next few months).
We would greatly appreciate any comments on these pages. Please comment using Facebook Connect or Google Friend. (We have added these social networks to all pages - we try and reply within 48 hours.)

3. The Four Main Purposes of this Website

Schopenhauer - let us speak the truthThe task is not so much to see what no one yet has seen, but to think what no body yet has thought about that which everyone sees. ... But life is short, and truth works far and lives long: let us speak the truth. (Arthur Schopenhauer, 1818)
(Note: The following may be a bit abrupt / absolute - it is written with those wonderful ideals of Albert Einstein in mind, kindness, beauty and truth!)

1. To Help People Understand Truth and Reality

True knowledge of physical reality provides us with an absolute foundation for working out the truth for ourselves (to prevent us from being deceived by cultural myths and past customs).
The central point to emphasise is that the solution is deduced using the accepted rules of science - most importantly Occam's Razor / Principle of Simplicity and Metaphysics / Dynamic Unity of Reality. This forces us to describe reality in terms of one substance, Space, and its wave motions that form matter (no opinions).
Aristotle - The first philosophy (Metaphysics) is universal and is exclusively concerned with primary substance.The first philosophy (Metaphysics) is universal and is exclusively concerned with primary substance. ... And here we will have the science to study that which is, both in its essence and in the properties which, just as a thing that is, it has. ... That among entities there must be some cause which moves and combines things. ... There must then be a principle of such a kind that its substance is activity. (Aristotle, 340BC)
It is also a significant fact that there is not another page on the internet that considers what the most simple science theory of reality is - which is strange given Occam's Razor (principle of simplicity) is fundamental to science. Thus it seems premature to claim science does not really work (the logical positivist / social construct view of postmodern science) without having considered this most simple solution (which is actually very obvious once known!).

2. To Realise that we are Structures of the Universe (our senses of discrete and separate bodies are incomplete and deceptive)

When we see things as being separate and discrete (like the human body) this is an illusion (naive real). In Reality matter (and thus all people) are wave structures of the universe, vibrating / resonating with everything in the Space around you. We are all subtly interconnected to all other matter in the observable universe because we are universal creatures (which is why we can see those stars spread across the universe, because we are a part of them, they a part of us). Thus seeing our bodies as discrete and separate objects is an an illusion of our limited senses (as representations of the mind).
This is the enlightenment that mystics / spiritualists and great scientists like Albert Einstein realised.
Albert Einstein 'A human being is a part of the universe ... A human being is part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. We experience ourselves, our thoughts and feelings as something separate from the rest. A kind of optical delusion of consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from the prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty… The true value of a human being is determined primarily by the measure and the sense in which they have obtained liberation from the self. … We shall require a substantially new manner of thinking if humanity is to survive. (Albert Einstein, 1954)

3. To Solve the Central Problems of Knowledge.

By understanding matter's (our) true spatially extended nature we can easily understand the necessary connection between things existing in space (imagine spherical waves in space flowing through one another). This explains how the Earth can orbit the Sun, how we can see the Stars in the night sky, i.e. these 'forces of light and gravity' that extend across the observable universe.
From this knowledge of necessary connection we can then solve the problems of science, of physics, logic and mathematics, philosophy, metaphysics, theology and our evolution and ecology. (There are many problems to explain, caused by the current discrete particle conception of matter, as modern academia well realises).
Albert Einstein on the Theory of RelativityWhen forced to summarize the general theory of relativity in one sentence:
Time and space and gravitation have no separate existence from matter. ...
Physical objects are not in space, but these objects are spatially extended. In this way the concept 'empty space' loses its meaning. ... Since the theory of general relativity implies the representation of physical reality by a continuous field, the concept of particles or material points cannot play a fundamental part, ... and can only appear as a limited region in space where the field strength / energy density are particularly high. (Albert Einstein, 1950)

4. To Help Humanity by Sharing this Knowledge with Others

This is one of the wonderful things about the Internet. People can be free individuals and yet also work together on the Internet to correct past errors both in human knowledge and in human society - and thus contribute to a better future for Humanity.
Most importantly, this knowledge of our dynamic unity with the world around us provides the foundations for the ecology of life on Earth and why the preservation of Nature is critical for our future survival. i.e. By knowing our true nature, we realise that we are a part of nature, of the ecology of life on earth as part of a larger ecology of matter in the observable universe (our true selves). We then realise how important it is to reverse the current destruction of Nature - which is effectively destroying us / our future survival. As David Bohm writes so profoundly;
David Bohm on quantum theory and the unity of realityThe notion that all these fragments is separately existent is evidently an illusion, and this illusion cannot do other than lead to endless conflict and confusion. Indeed, the attempt to live according to the notion that the fragments are really separate is, in essence, what has led to the growing series of extremely urgent crises that is confronting us today. Thus, as is now well known, this way of life has brought about pollution, destruction of the balance of nature, over-population, world-wide economic and political disorder and the creation of an overall environment that is neither physically nor mentally healthy for most of the people who live in it. Individually there has developed a widespread feeling of helplessness and despair, in the face of what seems to be an overwhelming mass of disparate social forces, going beyond the control and even the comprehension of the human beings who are caught up in it. (David Bohm, Wholeness and the Implicate Order, 1980)
True knowledge of reality has the potential to save humanity from disaster - but it achieves nothing unless people are aware of it - and that is something that depends on you (the best we can do is to present this knowledge as simply, concisely and clearly as we can - the pages are getting better, we are working hard!).
Albert Einstein and the struggle for truthWe must not conceal from ourselves that no improvement in the present depressing situation is possible without a severe struggle; for the handful of those who are really determined to do something is minute in comparison with the mass of the lukewarm and the misguided. (Albert Einstein, 1934)
