-- Preface


Our understanding of Nature has changed with the

passage of Time.

In the distant Past, we had thought that Nature was ruled

by powerful "Spirits" that could be controlled (or at least

appeased) by Sacrifice , the performance of Rituals, or

Prayer. From there, our thinking evolved up until Ancient

Greece, where some Philosophers conceived of Existence

as being made up of four different Elements, (Earth , Wind,

Rain, Fire.) Our (collective) thinking continued to advance

up to the time when the Atom was first discovered and

then considered to be the final, indivisible, Element of

Nature. In 1945 that assumption was proven to be wrong.


Since then, there have been many different Theories put

forth to try an explain the fundament make up, and the

properties, of our Environment. Some of these Theories

are not based on Fact and seem to be more like Flights of

Fantasy rather than serious proposals of Scientific Thought.

A more plausible conception of Nature is now needed.


It is difficult for us to accept new ideas, especially when

they contradict long standing Beliefs and Traditions; and

we have to start out all over again, like an innocent Child

that is just beginning to Explore its World.

1

But when the old solutions have reached the limit of their

application, and the old answers no longer seem to be

relevant, then it is time for us to make a change. If we can

accept the challenge and make the necessary changes in

the way we think; we may find the insights gained were all

well worth the effort and they do expand the Horizons of

our Mind. And, by our efforts, we will have won an

improved knowledge of Existence and a better

understanding of -- Our Self.


-- Introduction


The Basic Stuff of Existence is not a "Thing" but is instead

a "Way of Being."


(What we think of as --Existence-- is subject to change.

Under some conditions there will be (what we consider to

be) Substance; meaning the Physical Presence of Matter

and Energy. While under other conditions there will be no

apparent Substance and our Universe will seem to be an

unlimited, unchanging, "Nothing."

A Void.

It all depends on -- Motion.)


Motion is the basic "Stuff" of Existence.

When there are variations in Motion, there will be

noticeable Differences in our Environment (and hence the

States of Matter and Energy that we are familiar with.)

When there is a State of Absolute Uniformity of Motion,

there will be no differences to be observed.

It is Motion, in all of its various Shapes and Forms, that we

perceive to be Substance.

-- A New Perspective


It is possible for us to think of Existence in terms of fluid

movements instead of solid Particles. And, if we would

like to have a better comprehension of Nature (and the

way things work) then we should be concentrating our

attention on finding some common "Patterns of Motion"

and turn away from the search for an elusive, final,

Element. For example, the following ideas could help us

to have a greater awareness of Motion, and the Natural

Rhythms that are occurring all around us.


-- Patterns of Motion.


Part A: Movement

(The Interaction of Relative Opposites.)


1. Difference is the Motivating Cause of Motion.

2. When Difference does exist -- a Reaction to that

Difference will occur.

3. The Reaction will be an Interaction between the

Relative Opposites involved.

4. Interactions occur by way of Diffusion (a spreading out

of Influence from a Positive Force toward a Negative

Force), and will take place in the Direction of Least

Resistance.

5. The purpose of the Interaction is to Neutralize the

Difference that exists and to establish a State of

Equilibrium between the Opposing Forces.

6. Once a State Of Equilibrium is reached, the

Interactions will cease --

Part B: Repeated Motions

(The Alternating Interaction of Opposites.)


When Opposites Interact, a Reversal of their Poles will

occur. (The Area that was once Negative will become

Positive and the Area that was once Positive will become

a Relative Vacuum.) Producing a reversal of their original

States and making the conditions necessary for a

renewed Interaction.


If the original Opposing Forces are Exact Opposites then

this Alternation of Poles (and their Interactions), will

continue Indefinitely.

When the Opposing forces are not Exact Opposites an

Incomplete Alternation will occur; the Positive Force will

move into other (adjoining) Areas; and the original State of

Opposition will be diminished. The Alternations will

continue to dissipate (into other Areas) until there is no

noticeable difference in the Opposing Forces and their

Interactions will cease.


Part C: The Individual (In Definition)


1. Repeated Interactions can be seen as sustained

" Patterns of Motion."


2. The Individual is the Interaction that occurs between

Relative Opposites. It will have the Form and Physical

Characteristics (meaning the; Size, Shape, Mass, Density,

Temperature, etc.) produced by its own Movement; and by

its (possible) contact with other Individuals.

3. Common Forms of Interaction include;

-- a Sphere:

Which is a single (360Degree) Movement between

Opposites.

(And can be seen in the shape of Stars, Planets, and in the

Globules of Air in Water.)

-- Concentric Circles:

Which are simple Repeating Movements between

Opposites.

(And are seen in the Patterns of Solar Systems, Atomic

Formations, and in the Movements of Waves in a Pool of

Water.)

-- Turning Motions:

Which are Indirect Movements between Opposites.

(And are seen in Whirlpools, Tornados, Hurricanes, and

Planetary Rotation.)

-- Waves, Beats, Pulse:

Which are limited, non-uniform, Repeating Movements.

(And can be seen in Ocean Waves, the Wash Board Effect

in Gravel Roads, Musical Rhythms, and in the Beating of

our own Hearts.)

-- Energy, Fire, Light:

Which are diffused, non-repeating, Forms of Movement.

(And are experienced as Radiation, Heat, and Life.)


4. All Forms of Movement are Inter-Related.

By their Interactions they produce a single, united,

Universal Entity. (Our Greater Self.)


-- Our Point of View


Our Perception of Existence is greatly influenced by our

own Personal Needs. We think in terms of the Physical

Demands imposed on our Thoughts by our Bodies and we

consider ourselves to be Self Sufficient, Independent,

"Individuals." Everything that has happened in the Past

has encouraged us to think in this manner and we do not

5


see the Interactions that have produced us and that

continue to sustain us. It is not surprising that we take our

Concept of Self and project it out into our Environment as

we try to comprehend the Basic Workings of Existence.

That is why we think of Substance as being made up of

Individual Particles and as something that was produced

by separate, dis-connected, Events. If we could think

more in terms of Inter-Related Actions and Fluid Forces

then we might have a more realistic picture of what is

really happening in our Environment and a more honest

assessment of our Roles in the Grand Cosmic Scheme of

Things. Our Relationship to the World, and to the Events

that effect our lives, might become more obvious and

might help us to live in greater Harmony with each other.

FINISH


Imagine

There is a Form of Consciousness

To each and every Thing --

The Rock is Conscious of Solidarity

The Daisy of the Spring --


Imagine the Perspective !

What Thoughts to us unfold

When the Insensitive is Sensitized

And Existence considered Whole --
