SCROLL DOWN THIS INTRO TO GET TO MY BLOG POSTS, THANKS.


Most of what I write about is a combination of both the natural world and the spiritual world and while I agree with most of modern science to date, I do think there is also a spiritual layer to reality.


Sift through the PAGES and POSTS for more interesting information guaranteed to make you think and question.


FYI:


#1 Nothing is No Information

#2 Something is Some Information

#3 NoThing is Infinite/Unlimited information


Be careful how you understand NOTHING to be and how the word is used when you read my pages and articles on the web. I hold that the true vacuum energy of our universe and of in fact everything is from NOTHING of Infinite Information, is dynamic, and full --not empty, stagnate, and of zero information.


All the information collected from this process of existence and life is also retained inside of the Nothing. Who knows how many times existence and life have happened. I don't think information is lost or destroyed, and I don't think it returns into a zero-information kind of nothing.


Both understandings of nothing look very similar. They are both undefinable, unquantifiable, immeasurable...but they are opposites. The difference between zero and infinity.


FYI: There is One thing all of life wants, even human life and that is the effects of LOVE.

From Spirit to Nature

From Spirit to Nature

The Universe and Existence is a System of Consciousness?

It seems to me that everything we see today is inevitable, be it one possible inevitable outcome, but nevertheless bound to happen. Energy persists toward entropy, to take the fastest path possible to get there, like water rushing down a mountain. The fastest path is from simple to complex, from random to non-random, from chaos to highly ordered/organized things. Inevitably things will go from physics to chemistry to biology to consciousness, taking all those steps.

While many physical/chemical/biological/consciousness things may emerge in many different ways...inevitably the highest order of consciousness will outcome.

To me, that is fascinating, accidental or not.

I think that the universe (or more precisely reality) is a System of Energies and that quite possibly this System exists prior to the universe as well as outside of the universe. This System is the input and output of energies, which includes the immaterial energies and the ethical value of energy. I don't see an external judge looking upon us, rather an internal self contained system of input and output. What is put into the system will come out of the system.

In essence, we are judging ourselves as the soul and when the soul returns to the Oneness of the Spiritual Invisible Layer, we are judged in the Oneness. Any off balance from the Oneness causes the soul to be shifted outward again, gushed like water back into the physical layer until everything is One.

(But possibly once everything is one again, the Oneness will close again and reopen again, forming everything again.) Or perhaps it all just simply exists as One?

Given how the energies are input and output, I think the natural laws then evolve accordingly and so be it the cosmos and eventual consciousness. I don't think any information is lost, but is eternally stored in this System which to us may appear very disordered in the end, of which we can make no sense of or possible predictions of, but to the System that doesn't matter that we cannot makes sense of its information. (Information that is likely stored in my opinion in a 2D or even 1D format which is the Spiritual Invisible Layer). The information is and will always be and when a new universe pops from the system, the energies that were output from the previous universe will linger as inputs in the next universe and so on... possibly eternally.

This System then is not laws, but rather it is energies, and their behavior towards survival so to speak is what becomes the law, which will be different at different times for different universes. Law then does not give life to energy, rather energy gives life to law. A System of Energy.

This energy is sometimes seen as the physical we encounter on the day to day, but is also not seen until recently in the form of the atomic and quantum and states. This energy is ONE and is all-pervading and I think is consciousness as well, because this energy of Spiritual Invisible Layer pervades all internally.

This system of energies is the fundamental energy.

Gravity in my view is the fundamental environment. Gravity will cause decoherence and cause a superposition to collapse into one state. Gravity, in my view, is present in the atomic and quantum levels but is negligible because the mass of those particles is so small. When the mass reaches a certain threshold (yet to be determined) than gravity can have a grip and keep the body/object in a single location. The body/object tells gravity how much mass it has and gravity acts accordingly, bending space-time to give it comfortable space. Gravity is this curvature of space-time. (Or one could say simply the curvature of time).

But atomic particles and quantum particles have such small mass, that gravity cannot push them into one state or one location. They are free. Like players on a field without a referee.

Now quarks always come in pairs, interestingly enough it takes two bodies to see the effects of gravity. In my view I would assert that two particle and gravity are a package. There is no gravity without the two particle and there are no two particles without gravity. I mean to say Nature has this as a fundamental.

It is this System of Energies that I think is eternal, that is the spiritual invisible. This system closes and a void is formed allowing for the randomness/chaos/darkness/disorder and physical to emerge. Everything happens as modern science has detected, BUT the spiritual invisible energy opens also and in opening, its energies fall into the void and FILL up the physical.

Therefore the spirit is INTERNAL. "GOD" is internal, NOT external.

Probabilities come out of the Void surely. But we need energy to make those probabilities happen. So, when a fluctuation occurs and a surviving probability manifests, from where does its energy come to make the probability happen? (Spiritual Invisible energy)

It seems there is a Void, but then there is also all this energy. All this energy that equates to everything is still a net zero. But it is something, it is everything, it is energy. Yet, how can it birth from a Void of absolute nothingness?

I would say it is from this eternal System of Energies which is eternal. We can call this God on some level ...but it is everything. It is All Internal. It is all pervading. It is everywhere. It is the Whole. It is One.

In fact, I'd argue everything is One but the illusion makes it look as if everything is separate.

If there were only five conscious beings in the universe versus fifty billion, the same spirit would manifest in all those beings equally. Now, the output of the soul each would have would be different.

The System of Energies and the Void then are a package. They work in conjunction with each other. The Void provides the canvas and the System of Energies provides the paints. The Energy must close to form a Void to be birthed out of and the Void needs the energy from the System of Energies to birth its probabilities.

Chronology: (System of Energies—Void)—Fluctuations of Probability—Surviving Probability— The Field of Time (Higgs)- Quarks/Micro Gravity - Protons/Neutrons/Electrons - Hydrogen/Helium/Macro Gravity - The rest is Inevitable.

**********
When Krauss made popular the notion of "Everything from Nothing"
(leaning on many other scientist's work) many people took offense or confusion to that notion. To me and probably to Kabbalist's and Indian spiritualists, the notion made sense. Below, I try to explain my views and how science simply is a tool for us to see nature, but not necessarily the fullness of reality. (On a side note, even the Bible begins with God's Spirit moving over the surface of the abyss-which is much like nothingness to me).

We had to consider three possibilities: Either everything came from an ‘eternal’ nothing or everything came from an eternal something (Then how did that something get there, well it was eternal). Or both.

I tend to think both.

I call the Void a Dynamic Eternal Nothingness. The dynamic part, the eternal part, and the nothing part makes this so very interesting.

The dynamic part exists only in probability in the nothingness, but when the energy of the eternal system of energies is introduced, the probability happens.

If energy persists toward entropy in the quickest path possible then that explains higher order, because order expedites the path to entropy, like water finding the quickest path down a hill. But why life? Is life the highest order there is? Why do we have biology at all? Why didn't energy just stop at chemistry? Energy keeps persisting forward. If life is the higher order and thus why energy takes that path, which eventually leads to higher consciousness…then it is inevitable.

So, while many of the details are accidental and random, life is also all inevitable. Kind of a paradox. An Inevitable path to higher consciousness, yet, with many of the factors of the life produced being random and accidental. Seems like the board game is set up to spawn life regardless. What is formed doesn't matter, just as long as it is something and that something will eventually give rise to consciousness.

I would like to clarify that I agree with much of Dawkins' and Krauss natural views, that there is a natural process to all Things. Where we differ is in the disagreement of the spirit, which is not a thing but immaterial. In fact NoThing. *I view the spirit as the very fundamental layer of nature or nature's vibration or nature's echo if you will.* It is this natural echo that is left behind that is connected to the spirit of the system of energies.

I see this fundamental system of energies, as having Spiritual quality to it, and that is because the Spirit is Consciousness without the physical form. I also think it is eternal. As both NoThing and SomeThing, (zero and infinity) simply existing eternally. This energy is both 'creating and consuming' all the time, becoming (however it is always a Net Zero). This energy itself is not created or consumed, but the physical separate aspects that form from this energy are created and consumed.

I don't see the spirit as taking only one form which we call "God" and all other people who don't see God this way are wrong. I think the Spirit or "God" speaks to everyone differently and as many starts in heaven or fingerprints of man there are expressions of devotion and spiritual connection.

I view God as an all pervading Spirit within all things and all consciousness (lower animals alike) and because it "breathes" everyThing is sustained, and because it closed everyThing was born. Its closing was the first act of self sacrifice, the first spiritual act and the first act which destabilized itself or NoThing, forming a void.

The energy from its infinite light fell into the void and everyThing took effect according to how modern science now reveals.

Now, does the spirit have intent? Mind? We see intent differently then what it may be. We view intention because we view time linear and A makes B which makes C. So, we can have plans, intentions and when intentions go wrong we have accidents.

But if "Anything That Can Happen Will Happen" then everything was and is and will be inevitable. So, if you want to define it as intentional or accidental, so what. It was inevitable. Further, if it is all one and if time is an illusion than intent takes on a very different understanding. *Everything wasn't intentional or planned or accidental, because time is not really linear.* Everything was Inevitable!

Materialists take the absolute view that material is all there is and I take the opposite view that material is all there is not. Material is the grand illusion. To me it is energy and specifically spiritual/conscious energy from this system of energies which is the permanent and the real.

Now- from this I am not saying that the spirit and consciousness are the same thing. Consciousness exists horizontally and the Spirit vertically. Consciousness is confined by the physical form and the Spirit is not. The Spirit can be manifested in Consciousness, because Consciousness gives rise to the ability of the Spirit in a platform of the body. But the Spirit can exist without the Consciousness, and without the physical forms, yet the Consciousness does not exist without the physical forms and without the initial Spirit which drives the system of energies. The Spirit and System of Energies coexist as a union, but energy from the System of Energies can separate from the union. The system is the overall connectivity of all the energies.

This spiritual and conscious energy is immaterial and connected, in my opinion, to all consciousness, and to the grandeur quantum sphere and to all that is physical as well. This connectivity is the system of energies.


*******************
As everything is set up, We all have the potentiality for bad things to happen to us or good things, to take path A or path B, however the importance, in my view, does not lay in why is there suffering or pain or cancer or even joy and happiness...but in how we respond to all those possible events. The how is what effects our spirit which is the immaterial which is, in my opinion, the only thing that lasts and is permanent and real.

Now, I also agree the universe is self sufficient and self creating and consuming. But I would also say it is innately self-guiding and to me, this is because of the system of energies, because of the interconnectivity. It means that the spiritual energy which I denote as "God" is clever and higher than us, not that "God" doesn't exist. As a trained Montessori teacher, the best teachers prepare a classroom such that the children can be nurtured and developed at their best within the environment, NOT needing the teacher. The right environment does not need the teacher. The right universe would not need "God". A stupidly created universe would constantly need tinkering. If I were "God" I would have created the universe exactly as it is.

It is strange to me that the first mysteries we uncovered were of cosmological evolution (farthest in time and space) and then biological evolution (Darwin) --though somewhat overlapping--and then cosmological origins (Kruass) and then not yet even biological origins. Lastly, we are uncovering conscious evolution (Hameroff/Cambridge) and conscious origins (closest to us in time and space). Seems it should be the other way around. Funny. But when I think about it, that makes sense, because consciousness is immaterial and things we cannot see/measure become hardly things at all and therefore how can we study its existence? Still it seems biological evolution would be easier to see than cosmological evolution--but their study did overlap at times.


When people say we have no visual evidence or anything concrete we can measure about the spirit so it doesn't exist, I find that funny, because of course there would be No Thing concrete or visual to measure just yet. We have yet to uncover the mysteries of our own consciousness. Once we know more about conscious origins and evolution, than spiritual scientific discoveries would make more sense. The spirit is immaterial and so it should be the last thing we uncover or "see" or "don't see."

In closing our eyes we begin to see. It is when our eyes are open where we are fooled. If we want our eyes "opened" then we should close our eyes.

Possibly all of our spirits too would have an origins and an evolution since the world seems to show us this everywhere. An all pervading spiritual energy which was once 'one', but split into pieces of us. Our spirit then evolves as consciousness evolves, evolving with itself.

To me, the reality of Nature is discovered by science and the reality of the Spirit is the quest of religion. However, both get it wrong a lot and in fact neither has a perfect model.

Reality to me is all 'one' in time, space, energy, and consciousness. Therefore when the universe expanded into what it is, space and time, energy and consciousness expanded. This meant the 'one' stretched and what science uncovers is this process of the cosmological evolution, biological evolution and conscious evolution which appears to take space and time and the energy of everything--but in reality, in my opinion, it is all one and is the energy of NoThing.

To me, Nothing and Everything are the same in a sense...simply different forms of the system of energies. I would say that everything is from nothing, but only through the power of this system of energies.

The system of energies having started from a void is very powerful in function, because it has no structure. It allows for endless possibilities.

I would also say that the nature of the void is unstable and always persistent to form something.

As space-time stretched we now have past-present-future which Einstein said could be 'one' and we also now have energy going from Simple (limitless/Infinite) to Complex (limits/Finite) and from Chaos (Random) to Order (Non Random) and from NoThing to Something (Everything).

Possibly, nature evolved to the point where it could be conscious of itself.

I see internal, innate guides in nature all the time. Energy persists to exist and life persists to survive, but everything heads toward entropy. Death and Life cycle. All of this energy and life must follow the rules or natural laws and that is the guide or rule book. (Though in my view, that rule book changes from universe to universe, from environment to environment).

I see God as immaterial and our fundamental universe as immaterial to a degree (electrons/virtual particles) and everyThing within our universe has complexity and so has become material...BUT our consciousness is also seemingly immaterial. Thoughts, emotions are all energy that are immaterial. So, is there a link between the quantum and the consciousness, Between Consciousness and "God".

Some scriptures say God is light so God acting like a photon or an immaterial thing makes sense. Also, there are quantum physicists who see consciousness as a soul in the sense that it is like a magnetic field from a photon. An immaterial thing. Perhaps that is where the secrets are? In my opinion, God would be every where and every when, one with everything and yet God himself is nothing.

********************
Choices are made with movement in particles choosing Path A or Path B. Not a conscious choice, but a 'movement choice'. Virtual Particles of the universe can go one way or the other even if both paths are equal. Our computers cannot do this, as they remain in a state of indecision and crash.

Then with complex chemistry we get movement and eventually memory, movement based on past experience is more than random chaos, because now movement contains memory like RNA and Viruses and yields more directed movement.

Then with biology we get movement, memory, and consciousness.

From viruses to bacteria and fungi to plants and animals. But bacteria only have movement and memory and not consciousness (though they do experience physical sensation). They don't possess what I would call consciousness because they do not have enough memory to have an internal experience. They have physical experiences and their minimal memory guides them in an ordered way based on that physical experience.

Viruses only possess movement and no active memory but they do have a chemical memory? since they have RNA? and must be able to sense a host?, but Viruses seem to be complex chemistry whereas bacteria is simple biology. The transition.

Fungi and plants have physical sensations and possibly physical memory, and some have restricted movement...but not an internal experience as what would be consciousness, in my view. So they are more like the bacteria in this sense. However my instinct says plants probably have a lot more physical sensations and physical memory than the bacteria. I don't see this as consciousness though, I see this as I do the particle or bacteria where movement is a survival mechanism toward collectivity and conformity to ensure survival... but not consciously.

Then biology becomes more complex with consciousness.

With consciousness we have simple consciousness and complex consciousness. Simple consciousness allows us now to make prolonged choices based on physical information (whereas the bacteria's choices are very limited do to its very limited memory capacity) and it also allows us to have an internal reaction of minimal thought to that information... Fish, amphibians, reptiles. (Possibly simple emotions emerge with amphibians? I think there is a link between verbal language and emotion. The more complex the one, the more complex the other).

Emotions make the choices even more complicated. Now we have emotional responses to our memory and thoughts. Some amphibians and reptiles? Definitely birds and mammals.


In my view, the Spirit set everything from the very beginning when everything was one (maybe this was not a conscious choice in how we have consciousness, but a simple effect of how it simply is). The Spirit does not come during the Cambrian period and say, "I need more oxygen for life to develop!" Everything was set from the very first and put in motion. "The Spirit" knew the where and when and how (what natural laws would form) of everything and what environment was needed for the inevitable consciousness and what it would take for that to come into effect. Given all the conditions of our universe and Earth, we were inevitable. It did not matter what we looked liked physically per se, but that we could have consciousness and be connected to the immaterial all pervading spiritual energy.

What is God?

For myself, I view God as a Spirit. An infinite, illimitable, eternal Spirit. What is a Spirit? For myself, I view a Spirit as the most fundamental form, most simple form of energy.

I think to call the Spirit/God as intelligent or conscious, restricts and limits our own understanding of it. This is because we view life and nature through our own intelligence and consciousness. Ours evolved naturally from simple to complex and is restricted by body/space/time.

A God would not have these limits, would not have evolved and would not be complex. Therefore its "intelligence" and "conscious" would be nothing like we understand.

God is not a consciousness inside a brain or an intelligence inside a brain or even a mind inside a brain. Though a mind might be the closest we can think of it. God would exist outside of space and time and inside of it; therefore, its "consciousness" would encompass past-present-future and even before time. Its intelligence could be much like a mathematical genius quantum computer. Perhaps an Awakened Energy-Spirit- would be a better definition.

There are two kinds of energy in my view. Spiritual and Physical. When we understand virtual particles and fundamental particles better, I think we come closer to understanding what Spiritual Energy can do as well.

Spiritual Energy >>Withdrawal>>Space Forms>>Physical Energy Emerges>>Fields> Virtual Particles> Forces>Fundamental Particles>Everything Physical Forms.

Science examines the natural/the physical, not the spiritual.

I agree with everything from science, except when biologists (not mathematicians) use words like purposeless, without guide, directionless, without goals.

I agree with mathematicians assessment of randomness.

The reason is because in biology, we are talking about things without a consciousness -processes and mechanisms are non living things and can't have a purpose in the sense that they are using the word. They don't have a consciousness. They are not aware.

We are examining processes and mechanisms, but what is this substance (energy) that these processes and mechanisms are using. From where does this substance (energy) come?

Those are essentially the questions at the crust of the real inquiry into what is reality.

Simply because the process or mechanism is not conscious itself, does not mean they were not structured deliberately or without intent or thought, or that a spiritual energy does not exist.

This simply means that physical things and processes and mechanisms without a consciousness don't have a conscious purpose/goal.

Well, Duh.

So, I agree biological evolution doesn't have a conscious purpose/goal in and of itself -because we are examining only the physical Things, the physical processes and physical mechanisms.

This says nothing about the spiritual significance.

However, they do have a natural purpose/goal.

All energy persists toward entropy =Death.
All life persists to survival =Life

Further, all energy follows a pattern from simple>complex, chaos>order, from heterogenous>homogenous, from random>non random, from death>life>death.

These patterns are reflected in our natural laws.

So, all of energy does follow a guide or a direction. It is the direction or reflection of the natural laws.

is Nothing all there is?

Science seems to be going in the direction that true nothingness does not exist. This is because whenever you find nothing, you find virtual particles.

I would have to agree not just with the science, but with that concept in my view of life and reality.

Nothing does not exist, because whenever you find nothing--you actually find everything just in its most simple and fundamental form. Nothing is NoThing, not the non-existence of everything.

The most simple and fundamental form of reality is NoThing and this is why this happens in my opinion.

The real question for me is, how much of life experience and memories is retained in this simple fundamental form that makes up our universe and our everything?

How is it retained?

We can see cells seem to have a sense of memory and experience, but do virtual particles too?

Do all our memories and life experiences retain themselves in some fundamental form of energy?

Could what we call the soul or spirit be an echo of nature itself?

It does seem that virtual particles have to behave certain ways. It pops as a gluon only to become a photon or such...because it seemingly has to conform to the existence it pops into. Some virtual particles might pop into our existence as anti-quarks, but most have to conform and so we see the photon it is supposed to be.

Why do virtual particles conform? What rules are they following? It seems they are somehow aware of what is around them if they are conforming. (Not to imply this awareness has to be conscious.)
