Martin Rees - Where Do the Laws of Nature Come From?

What's real? What's fundamental? There are regularities in nature, things that are or work the same-always, everywhere, across the universe just like across your kitchen. Down deep, what are the laws of nature? What makes them laws? What is their origin? Did they come into existence or did they always exist?

    Our ability of understanding the patterns in nature is simply outstanding. Laws are nothing but just codification of these patterns. Nature has answer to every question we ask for.

    🐟 05. THE PHENOMENAL UNIVERSE: As demonstrated in the previous chapter, there is insufficient evidence for the existence of a separate, objective universe, external to the perceptual faculties of a conscious being. The fact that the phenomenal universe (“prakṛti”, in Sanskrit) of mind and matter (or name and form [“nāmarūpa”, in Sanskrit/Pali]) exists (that is to say, is perceived) solely within the personal consciousness of any individual human or animal, is superlatively logical. If this material world actually existed as a SEPARATE reality, then obviously, it would have limits, because the nature of matter is that it has a measurable, three-dimensional finitude. Despite what some may claim, no perceived object can be infinite or eternal. Therefore, if one were to travel to the edge of the universe, there would need to be something WITHOUT the boundary of the universe (some other “universe”, which contains this universe). This contradicts the very concept of a universe (literally, “turned into one”). Therefore, there cannot be a so-called “multiverse”, for if it were so, the summation of all discrete universes would properly be termed “universe”. Our observable universe would then be merely a “cell” or “bubble” of the totality of material nature. The late, great Professor Dr. Alan Watts’ response to the question: “where is the universe located?” was: “nowhere and everywhere”. One of the most misunderstood aspects of this space-time universe is just that - TIME. There are various extant theories of time. However, time is a very simple concept to grasp for one who has experienced his own timeless nature. That usually occurs during meditation practices or during awakening experiences (see Chapter 17 to understand spiritual awakening). Possibly the easiest way to understand time is to use the analogy of a movie. It may take a couple hours to watch a motion picture, yet the whole film is contained within the form of a single digital file (or in the case of older mediums, a reel of photographic film). The story of this universe may take hundreds of billions of earth years to complete, but from the perspective of eternity (literally, “no time”) it is not even as long as the blink of an eyelid. Indeed, it cannot be measured at all. To use movie jargon, the story of life is already “in the can” (of film). Read Chapters 08 and 11 to learn about predestination and causality. In practical terms, time is witnessed by phenomenal changes as perceived by the faculty of memory (i.e. time corresponds to change). This material manifestation is composed of space, time (or, to be more accurate, space-time), energy, and matter, the latter of which comprises eight elemental groups - the five GROSS elements (“mahābhūta”, in Sanskrit), which are perceivable by at least one of the five senses, and the three SUBTLE elements (“tanmātra” or “atisūkṣma mātra”, in Sanskrit), which are symptomatic of localized consciousness. N.B. Dark matter and black holes are not included in this system, as cosmological science has yet to determine their structural composition. The five gross material elements and three subtle material elements are (from most palpable to most intangible): SOLIDS (AKA earth - “bhūmiḥ” or “pṛthivī”, in Sanskrit) are made of densely-packed molecules of a steady shape at room temperature. LIQUIDS (AKA water - “jala” or “āpaḥ”, in Sanskrit) are composed of moderately-dense molecules conforming to the shape of its environment or container (and in nature, often including at least some water molecules). GASES (AKA air - “vāyuḥ” or “marut”, in Sanskrit) consist of rarefied molecular particles of no fixed shape. HEAT (AKA fire - “analaḥ” or “tejas”, in Sanskrit) is made of kinetic energy (which may appear visibly as fire, or at least heat waves). ETHER (AKA space - “ākāśa” or “khaṃ”, in Sanskrit) is a vacuum consisting of three-dimensional space (length, breadth, and width). However, recent investigation has confirmed that empty space is actually filled with virtual particles (matter and antimatter). Thus, the explanation for the material universe being created from “nothing” (anti-matter) is plausible, according to quantum field theory. MIND (“manaḥ”, in Sanskrit) is composed of sensual perceptions, instinctual thoughts, abstract images (including memories and fantasies), and emotions. Not all animal species have a mind, but function purely on base nervous reflexes, generated from their specific genetic code. INTELLECT (“buddhiḥ”, in Sanskrit) consists of conceptual thoughts. Only the very higher species of animal life possess an intellectual capacity. PSEUDO-EGO (“ahaṃkāraḥ”, in Sanskrit) is comprised of the “I” thought (specifically, the illusory, ephemeral self-identity). Only humans possess the self-awareness necessary to question their own existence. Read Chapter 10 for a full disquisition of egoity. Each of the FIVE perceptible material elements corresponds to one of the senses of the body. E.g. In outer space, where there is a vacuum (ether), one can detect light with the eyes, yet space is not tactile and cannot be smelled or tasted, nor can sound waves travel via space. At the opposite extreme, solid matter can be seen with the eyes, felt with the sense of touch, tasted with the tongue, smelt with the nose, and heard with the ear (when the solid matter is physically vibrated). Beyond these eight material elements is the TRUE self - which pervades the entire body, and indeed, which encompasses the entirety of existence as the Universal Self (“ayam ātmā brahma”, in Sanskrit). Ultimately speaking, the authentic self/Self (“ātmana/Paramātmana”, in Sanskrit) alone is. The following chapter deals more fully with the concept of Infinite Awareness (“brahman” or “puruṣa”, in Sanskrit). However, all eight elemental groups are, in fact, “made of”, or an APPEARANCE in, Consciousness, since, as demonstrated previously, naught but Consciousness “exists”. Consciousness is the ultimate reality (“prajñāna brahma”, in Sanskrit). Just as a wedding ring is contingent on gold for its very existence, so too does the phenomenal universe depend entirely on Beingness (or “Isness”), Consciousness, and Blissful Quietude. Although The Absolute cannot be verbally-described, (otherwise, “it” would be an OBJECT), as a concession to materialists (who often demand concrete answers from religionists), Infinite Awareness is said to exhibit three innate attributes, known as “sacchidānanda”, a compounded Sanskrit epithet, consisting of the three words “sat”, “cit” and “ānanda” - Eternal Being(ness), Existence, or Truth; Pure Consciousness, or Perfect Knowledge; and Unalloyed Peace (often translated as “bliss”. However, the term “bliss” connotes an ephemeral experience of euphoria, whereas “peace” is a steady-state, absent of any form of temporal perturbation). Because Absolutely Nothing (“brahman” or “puruṣa”, in Sanskrit) is Infinite Creative Potentiality, “it” actualizes as Absolutely Everything. Attributeless Consciousness at Rest (in Sanskrit, “Nirguna Brahman”) manifests as this phenomenal universe (Consciousness in Action, or, in Sanskrit, “Saguna Brahman”). In the verbiage of quantum physics, the enfolded implicate order appears as the unfolded explicate order.In REALITY there is no separation of anything at any time (assuming that Consciousness is a “thing”, and that time is a property of The Uncaused Absolute). That the total sum energy of the universe is zero, implies the non-existence of matter (i.e. no thing is objectively real). The phenomenal manifestation is eternally cyclical, because “coming into existence” implies “going out of existence”, just as “black” implies the existence of “white”, or as “rich” implies “poor”. Is it possible to have something without nothing? Obviously not, because the two go together, as interrelated opposites. There cannot be heat without coldness, nor tallness without shortness, nor youth without old age. Similarly, despite what most believe, the outer-world is as much the Self as the inner-world. Where is the boundary of the human body? When we look at a person, we cannot see that person UNLESS we also see the background image. The two are inseparable, just as a flower and a bee cannot exist without the other. This fact alone is ample evidence that the universe is a holistic and wholistic system or entity. You who are reading these words are that Totality of Existence, the Highest Universal Principle, the Essential Irreducible Self. In common parlance, you are God (IF you only knew it!). Most of the greatest sages in history have spoken about either or both these concepts (of the Absolute Truth being either Absolutely Everything or Absolute Nothingness), such as the concept of “form is emptiness and emptiness is form” in Buddhism, or in Avatar Meher Baba's book “The Everything and the Nothing” (which is highly-recommended, particularly Chapters 51 to 56, which poetically describe the Ineffable One-without-a-second). Even an ordinary writer, American author Kurt Vonnegut, once penned: “Everything is nothing - with a twist”. The Stanford Institute for Theoretical Physics professor, Doctor Leonard Susskind's so-called “minus-first law of physics”, states that information is INDESTRUCTIBLE. This is akin to the law of conservation of energy in classical physics, and proves that neither physical nor psychic energy is lost. Read subsequent chapters to learn more about how this law relates to the notion of reincarnation, as well as to miraculous phenomena such as savant syndrome. Cont...

    The planet on which we are residing consists of animate/organic life, as well as inanimate/inorganic matter. The six stages of ORGANIC life are: 1. conception/birth 2. growth/development 3. maintenance 4. reproduction 5. ageing/deterioration 6. death Therefore, all LIFE-FORMS originate from a manner of reproduction (either cell division, seeds, spores, asexual, or sexual reproduction). The organism then grows to maturity (in our case, sexual maturity in the early teens). The mature state is maintained for a certain length of time before reproduction takes place (although this potential is not always actualized). The organism grows old and deteriorates before finally dying. Some persons mistakenly believe that it may be possible for humans to one day live forever, but that can never ever happen for two reasons: because material objects are by nature impermanent and because this impermanent universe will eventually end in a “Big Crunch”. British polymath Thomas Young's famous double-slit experiment suggests that matter exists purely as potentiality or as a “possibility” until it is observed by a conscious being. This phenomenon, known as the wave-particle duality, is often discussed in advanced spiritual discourses, as it gives credence to the primacy of Consciousness. There are other aspects of the universe (e.g. the various philosophical approaches to the nature of ontological time, the accelerated expanding universe, holographic universe principle, the Golden Ratio as the fundamental constant of the natural world, quantum superposition, wave function, and quantum entanglement), as well as the possibility of life on other planets, the crop circle phenomenon, and the presence of the Fibonacci sequence in nature, which are beyond the scope of this document, and which do not directly relate to the most exigent thing in life (to find the unending peace/happiness which we humans are ULTIMATELY seeking). “Long ago Man recognized that all perceptible matter comes from a primary substance, of a tenuity beyond conception and filling all space - the Akasha or luminiferous ether - which is acted upon by the life-giving Prana or creative force, calling into existence, in never-ending cycles, all things and phenomena. The primary substance, thrown into infinitesimal whirls of prodigious velocity, becomes gross matter; the force subsiding, the motion ceases and matter disappears, reverting to the primary substance.” Nikola Tesla, Serbian-American Engineer and Inventor, From “Man's Greatest Achievement”. “Who is the perceiver? Universal Consciousness alone is the perceiver. The body is merely the mechanism, through which perceiving takes place and from which the ego is inferred, as the perceiver of other objects. Strictly speaking, there is neither the perceiver nor the perceived. There is only perceiving, as the objective expression of the subjective functioning, of the one Universal Consciousness.” ************* “The whole cosmos is an implicit unity, expressed in explicit duality. The original interrelated opposites, are beingness and non-beingness. Being can only come out of non-being, precisely as sound only emanates from silence, and light from darkness. The imagined void of non-being, however, is not emptiness, but the very fullness of potential, out of which arises all that exists.” ************* “You have considered yourself to be a separate 'self', only because of having regarded a 'solid' object with a name, that is a body, as yourself. But in fact, the body itself is nothing, but an insignificant, vastly intricate complex of electrical wave-patterns, a series of rhythmic functions, a throbbing field of energy and emptiness. What you actually are, then, is what everybody else is: sentience itself. Therefore, instead of being a puny self by way of an object, you are indeed everything.” Ramesh S. Balsekar, Indian Spiritual Teacher.

    Perhaps but then the question shifts to why are there patterns at all? Why do these patterns exist? Why does matter and energy behave the same way everywhere always? People don't do that. The weather doesn't do that. The stock market doesn't do that. Ocean waves don't do that. Yet the patterns we describe as the "laws of nature" do that, which would seem to be counter intuitive to the point that the question must be asked -- when everything else seems to be so random, why are THESE particular patterns so consistent?

    A piece from a new book titled: Saved by the Light of the Buddha Within... Myoho-Renge-Kyo represents the identity of what some scientists are now referring to as the unified field of consciousnesses. In other words, it’s the essence of all existence and non-existence - the ultimate creative force behind planets, stars, nebulae, people, animals, trees, fish, birds, and all phenomena, manifest or latent. All matter and intelligence are simply waves or ripples manifesting to and from this core source. Consciousness (enlightenment) is itself the actual creator of everything that exists now, ever existed in the past, or will exist in the future - right down to the minutest particles of dust - each being an individual ripple or wave. The big difference between chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo and most other conventional prayers is that instead of depending on a ‘middleman’ to connect us to our state of inner enlightenment, we’re able to do it ourselves. That’s because chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo allows us to tap directly into our enlightened state by way of this self-produced sound vibration. ‘Who or What Is God?’ If we compare the concept of God being a separate entity that is forever watching down on us, to the teachings of Nichiren, it makes more sense to me that the true omnipotence, omniscience and omnipresence of what most people perceive to be God, is the fantastic state of enlightenment that exists within each of us. Some say that God is an entity that’s beyond physical matter - I think that the vast amount of information continuously being conveyed via electromagnetic waves in today’s world gives us proof of how an invisible state of God could indeed exist. For example, it’s now widely known that specific data relayed by way of electromagnetic waves has the potential to help bring about extraordinary and powerful effects - including an instant global awareness of something or a mass emotional reaction. It’s also common knowledge that these invisible waves can easily be used to detonate a bomb or to enable NASA to control the movements of a robot as far away as the Moon or Mars - none of which is possible without a receiver to decode the information that’s being transmitted. Without the receiver, the data would remain impotent. In a very similar way, we need to have our own ‘receiver’ switched on so that we can activate a clear and precise understanding of our own life, all other life and what everything else in existence is. Chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo each day helps us to achieve this because it allows us to reach the core of our enlightenment and keep it switched on. That’s because Myoho-Renge-Kyo represents the identity of what scientists now refer to as the unified field of consciousnesses. To break it down - Myoho represents the Law of manifestation and latency (Nature) and consists of two alternating states. For example, the state of Myo is where everything in life that’s not obvious to us exists - including our stored memories when we’re not thinking about them - our hidden potential and inner emotions whenever they’re dormant - our desires, our fears, our wisdom, happiness, karma - and more importantly, our enlightenment. The other state, ho, is where everything in Life exists whenever it becomes evident to us, such as when a thought pops up from within our memory - whenever we experience or express our emotions - or whenever a good or bad cause manifests as an effect from our karma. When anything becomes apparent, it merely means that it’s come out of the state of Myo (dormancy/latency) and into a state of ho (manifestation). It’s the difference between consciousness and unconsciousness, being awake or asleep, or knowing and not knowing. The second law - Renge - Ren meaning cause and ge meaning effect, governs and controls the functions of Myoho - these two laws of Myoho and Renge, not only function together simultaneously but also underlie all spiritual and physical existence. The final and third part of the tri-combination - Kyo, is the Law which allows Myoho to integrate with Renge - or vice versa. It’s the great, invisible thread of energy that fuses and connects all Life and matter - as well as the past, present and future. It’s also sometimes termed the Universal Law of Communication - perhaps it could even be compared with the string theory that many scientists now suspect exists. Just as the cells in our body, our thoughts, feelings and everything else is continually fluctuating within us - all that exists in the world around us and beyond is also in a constant state of flux - constantly controlled by these three fundamental laws. In fact, more things are going back and forth between the two states of Myo and ho in a single moment than it would ever be possible to calculate or describe. And it doesn’t matter how big or small, famous or trivial anything or anyone may appear to be, everything that’s ever existed in the past, exists now or will exist in the future, exists only because of the workings of the Laws ‘Myoho-Renge-Kyo’ - the basis of the four fundamental forces, and if they didn’t function, neither we nor anything else could go on existing. That’s because all forms of existence, including the seasons, day, night, birth, death and so on, are moving forward in an ongoing flow of continuation - rhythmically reverting back and forth between the two fundamental states of Myo and ho in absolute accordance with Renge - and by way of Kyo. Even stars are dying and being reborn under the workings of what the combination ‘Myoho-Renge-Kyo’ represents. Nam, or Namu - which mean the same thing, are vibrational passwords or keys that allow us to reach deep into our life and fuse with or become one with ‘Myoho-Renge-Kyo’. On a more personal level, nothing ever happens by chance or coincidence, it’s the causes that we’ve made in our past, or are presently making, that determine how these laws function uniquely in each of our lives - as well as the environment from moment to moment. By facing east, in harmony with the direction that the Earth is spinning, and chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo for a minimum of, let’s say, ten minutes daily to start with, any of us can experience actual proof of its positive effects in our lives - even if it only makes us feel good on the inside, there will be a definite positive effect. That’s because we’re able to pierce through the thickest layers of our karma and activate our inherent Buddha Nature (our enlightened state). By so doing, we’re then able to bring forth the wisdom and good fortune that we need to challenge, overcome and change our adverse circumstances - turn them into positive ones - or manifest and gain even greater fulfilment in our daily lives from our accumulated good karma. This also allows us to bring forth the wisdom that can free us from the ignorance and stupidity that’s preventing us from accepting and being proud of the person that we indeed are - regardless of our race, colour, gender or sexuality. We’re also able to see and understand our circumstances and the environment far more clearly, as well as attract and connect with any needed external beneficial forces and situations. As I’ve already mentioned, everything is subject to the law of Cause and Effect - the ‘actual-proof-strength’ resulting from chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo always depends on our determination, sincerity and dedication. For example, the levels of difference could be compared to making a sound on a piano, creating a melody, producing a great song, and so on. Something else that’s very important to always respect and acknowledge is that the Law (or if you prefer God) is in everyone and everything. NB: There are frightening and disturbing sounds, and there are tranquil and relaxing sounds. It’s the emotional result of any noise or sound that can trigger off a mood or even instantly change one. When chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo each day, we are producing a sound vibration that’s the password to our true inner-self - this soon becomes apparent when you start reassessing your views on various things - such as your fears and desires etc. The best way to get the desired result when chanting is not to view things conventionally - rather than reaching out to an external source, we need to reach into our own lives and bring our needs and desires to fruition from within - including the good fortune and strength to achieve any help that we may need. Chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo also reaches out externally and draws us towards, or draws towards us, what we need to make us happy from our environment. For example, it helps us to be in the right place at the right time - to make better choices and decisions and so forth. We need to think of it as a seed within us that we’re watering and bringing sunshine to for it to grow, blossom and bring forth fruit or flowers. It’s also important to understand that everything we need in life, including the answer to every question and the potential to achieve every dream, already exists within us. To understand the meaning of Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo even more, I sincerely recommend that you read Tina Turner's new book: Happiness Becomes You. kzread.info/dash/bejne/gIZppsaqmrDel6Q.html Let go, and let God - Olivia Newton-John Nam Myoho Renge Kyo Let go, and let God - Olivia Newton-John Nam Myoho Renge Kyo www.youtube.com

    @@MrDorbel Um.... Kinda. But I'm not sure. I'll grant you that's possible but in the end (or beginning rather), something happened, and then things happened as a consequence of that. If as the gentleman said, there are no regularities or "laws" that govern what happens, we would not be here to ask that question. Yet there are consistent, persistent "rules" about the way things interact with each other. I suppose a worthy question might be -- did those rules happen AFTER the "big bang" or before. Perhaps the big bang itself was just random chaotic nonsense that happened because it just did, not because of any rules. And then everything that came after started to interact in regular, predictable ways. The subsequent question there is WHY did everything start acting the way it did. OR, the big bang itself happened as a consequence of something predictable -- following the "rules" as it were. And then question there is WHY were there rules at all before there was anything at all. I think it's a valid question either way. The only way it's not a valid question would be if things were always random and chaotic and there were no rules, ever. But as mentioned, if that were the case, we wouldn't be asking this question in the first place. Pretty deep if you think about it.

    This to me might be my new favorite question. I could see myself being a deist, As I've always said the only God I would ever believe in is a impersonal God that just created everything and then let it run. But i'd describe myself as a atheist at the moment, But if it is in fact true that the laws of nature were in some way created and not simply emergent from an underlying thing like quantum mechanics are string theory or whatever theory is everything I give you then it might make me conclude that the universe exists within consciousness or within a simulation and that consciousness or simulation would come from An entity and a much higher dimension than the one we find ourselves in. So this is not a trivial question I don't think and some atheist could brush it off and say it's just is how it is and that's how nature work but the further we learn about science the more we're gonna realize that I don't think laws can be emergent because even the things that are very very fundamental like quantum fields still obey laws. So maybe laws or laws or consistent patterns are the most fundamental part of our world or something like that. Relational organized patterns that we can then describe as rational humans as laws of nature via mathematics and Is other scientific pursuits

    You have no basis for saying there _should_ be no laws. There _are_ of course laws of nature (which is to say, there are observable regular patterns in nature), very particular ones, and _that_ is the mystery. Why _these_ particular laws and not others? Why any 'laws' at all. It could 'simply' be the ultimate selection bias. We can only examine that which we can interpret as regular predictable patterns, and so we may observe a universe that adheres to particular 'laws' (regularities) because it's baked into the way our minds model the world.

    Of course, way before the physical laws there's just some unknowable state of Reality - As reasonably any element of reality is a part of some larger Reality, and what defines the limit? Also reasonably, Reality is implicitly consistent with itself, as it's a product of it's own Reality. From this then, it is easy peasy lemon squeezy to generate some laws of physics ex nihilo. Out of curiosity I tried by simulating something akin to this on my computer, but apart from the emergent local symmetries post the inflation phase transition it generated, it kept suggesting that there should be some curious subtle background global information states/effects wafting into the universe from outside the universe, like some spooky all knowing Omni field lol.....

    To follow the patterns of the nature the one within our reach it is easy to follow. To follow function of the universe is bit harder specially when you have nothing but imagination. Moreover if person has the capacity see the patterns of the universe with out of going into deep space, they will tell you lot more then you could have find out by your own in million years. I can tell you for sure space is the same no matter how far away you travel from earth 10 or 60 billion light years of distances from earth. However what exactly is different planet sizes and star sizes make big impact on the nature and life forms evolved in them. Like for example small planets like Mars size they produced intelligent life forms with higher vibration, total their cycles from point they start to walk to the highest level of intelligence it take total half million year to the point they are able build flying saucers and fly through out the universe. For us you know the story scientists claim so far three million years I believe is more then that cause our energy vibration is low and slow. If planets even larger then earth perhaps creates on those planets never reach any intelligence at all. I also strongly believe Anunakis were our neighbors, because their planets atmosphere lost capacity to hold oxygen they moved earth to build their flying saucers, thankfully with that they help our species to gain more intelligence then what they had by the time.

    @@danellwein8679 I have pondered this question for a long time and it keeps coming back to - God. A related question would be - Could God have Created the Universe with different materials and 'laws'. I say yes. God can do ANYTHING (trust me, I know) and as the popular saying goes "there's more than one way to skin a cat". Whatever materials and laws that surrounds us - it would seem as 'normal' to us as a fish in water. The whole reason for existence (What's it all about Alfie) is for God's purposes and His Glory. If our science is correct, we all started with a 'Big Bang' that caused the expansion of the universe and popular opinion states that the expansion will slow down and stop in order to reverse itself back down to a singularity that in turn will cause another Big Bang Since God is eternal, this would be also eternal. In "Conversations with God" God makes a (sort of) joke saying " I have been around as long as the Universe × the Universe so you can see just how young it all is. It has been a long time since God made a 'mistake'". I like to think of endless Big Bangs as the breathing in and out of God. Information and causation are just a couple of the tools that God uses - tools that He/She/It made. The reason for God's purpose in all of this is understandable by we 'intelligent' humans - but it is necessary KNOW there is a God.

    Did you know that there is no inherent illumination or luminosity in photons? “Light,” as such, cannot be found there. Photons are, perhaps, ‘packets’ of energy which have the properties of both spread-out waves and localized particles. Photons only take on the appearance of being luminous as they arise within consciousness, in our mind’s eye. It may be that photons are spread-out energy potentials that fill the immensity of space, and only take on the appearance of being a localized discrete particle of “light” when we become aware of them in consciousness, in this actualized awareness we call mind. Thus, you are the light of the kosmos. This “light” is only arising in us. The world outside of a mind is perfectly ‘dark,’ or empty, unactualized in any way. Of course, what else could it be? What would perceive it as illuminated, or as any “thing”? All of our thoughts are the activity of consciousness, modulations of that consciousness, incarnations within that pure consciousness, rays shining from inside that consciousness. We are agents of that consciousness, emerging from within that consciousness. All there is to experience is the knowing of it, and that knowing is God’s own Self in us, living in us, the source of our life, the energy of consciousness itself. We could say that God lives in us, since consciousness seems to have become localized in this particular body-mind. Or we could say that we live in God, since all that we perceive arises in that consciousness, including our body-mind. Thus, Jesus was right to say, “I am in the Father and the Father is in me” (John 14:10-11, 20). Both are true, and they are true of us as well. We are arising within God, and God is arising within us as well. Sometimes this is called “mutual indwelling,” the Father in the Son and the Son in the Father, also called perichoresis or co-inherence in Christian terminology. God is the field of consciousness in which all knowing occurs, in which all thoughts and perceptions and feelings and sensations arise, like waves in the ocean. Our body-mind and its thoughts are like localizations within that consciousness, temporary manifestations of that Ultimate Reality, expressions of that consciousness, that being, that One. God becomes veiled and hidden from our awareness when the thoughts that arise in and from consciousness believe they are something separate and discrete from the consciousness in which they are arising. The thoughts form a separate entity, a dualistic subjective ego, a separate self identity, an independent being, an “Adam/Eve,” which thinks it is apart from infinite nondual divine consciousness and Ultimate Reality. This seems to be the “Fall,” the beginning of duality and separateness and alienation from God’s Presence. But how could thoughts be separate from the consciousness in which they have arisen? They can’t, but that is exactly what our thoughts and our self-identification with them think they are. It is a kind of psychological illusion. The thoughts take on their own separate identity apart from pure nondual consciousness, forming a self, a person, an entity, seemingly cut off from its own source and essence. Once we look at it like this, it seems impossible, and that is because it is. Our ‘self’ is never actually separate from the source in which it arises, thoughts are never separate from the consciousness in which they emerge, the wave is not separate from the ocean. The thoughts that make up our ‘self’ are just finite actualizations or relative localizations of the infinite potential of absolute consciousness, or Divine Being, or Ultimate Reality. In Christian symbolism we call this the incarnation of God. In Buddhism it is the Dharmakaya that incarnates as the Nirmanakaya Buddha. In Hinduism it is Brahman that manifests itself as each Atman. God becomes incarnate in reality, in the flesh, embodied, in us and all things. There is no time, no space, nowhere we can go, nowhere we can be, that will be outside of this Presence of God, outside of this consciousness, beyond the borders of God, or the Ultimate Reality. God is always present, and is Presence itself, awareness itself, consciousness itself, the “spirit of life” within us, from which we derive all being, all knowing, all our substance, every thought, every sensation. It all arises in God. This is perhaps why, in order to pierce the veil and know God directly, contemplative practices such as meditation help train us to transcend thought, to go back to the source of thought itself, beyond all thoughts of self, to recognize that from which it all arises, this pure open vastness of nondual unitive at-one consciousness. Do you see why we cannot “think” God? Nothing that arises in consciousness as a thought will be that consciousness in which it is arising. No relative finite manifestation in consciousness can be the absolute pure infinite consciousness, even though every manifestation or relativization or actualization of that consciousness is made up of nothing other than that consciousness. God is Present even while we are trying to comprehend God, even in the midst of that very comprehension. God is what makes that attempt at comprehension even possible. God is the very field in which we are trying to know God. When we let go of the trying, the conceptualization, surrendering the thoughts that are trying to know themselves, and rest in the pure still silent open awareness of being, that is when the realization of God may dawn on us, as us.

    A great discussion. The laws of PHYSICS seem to be universal, but are there laws to LIFE that are not universal? Is everything life needs stored in genetic code? Or could there be something in the environment of the earth that also directs the development of life from a single cell to a larger organism? How would we know if there's a "life field" on the earth, like the Strong Gaia Hypothesis considers, perhaps life could NOT develop off the earth, if that life field is missing. Until we do the experiment, we don't really know. I'd go 90% chance the "laws of life" are universal, so a seed will develop on Mars or a planet around Alpha Centauri, identically as on the Earth. So far we know humans can live long enough to land on the moon, and humans can live in low earth orbit for 14 months, but how far out might a life field extend? It could be a 6 month crewed mission to Mars would be enough to reach health failures, outside of the womb of our birth planet. Is it crazy we can't know until we do it? Maybe, but at least we're close, and there'd be volunteers to explore "the final frontier" and we'll see how far humans can really go.

    From Physics everything has come.Fundamentals laws of nature come from physics then laws of chemistry and then some parts of Biology have come . Now as Dr. Rees has said subjects like Economics and Social Science are growing at high speed but what's about morality? In survival for the fitest theory why does morality come ? This indicates a spiritual world. Morality is the basis of spirituality.

    The mystery is classification. Like a prism separating "white light" into its separate colors, how does the human mind separate the "things of existence" from the "ideas of human understanding" and how does the human mind connect or reconnect them, classify and reclassify. How does a point of light in the night sky become the morning star then the evening star and then, not a star at all but, the planet Venus? Are our minds like a constantly changing prism: now diffracting, now refracting, now reflecting light? Why? What about our minds is changing: what process is driving this classification and reclassification? Certainly not evolution. At some fundamental level our memory and senses are being updated by our individual will, willingness, and intent. Sometimes this update gives us a seeming advantage. If the advantage comes to be shared it becomes a concensus we call religion, culture, agriculture, science. What in nature, besides man, exhibits this kind of willingness? Genes? Are genes responsible for language, philosophy, math, beauty and truth? Impossible, genetics and human will are contradictory. Are viruses, fundamental particles? Language and the linguistic mind distinguishes man from the other creatures of nature. Distinguishes the human will from Nature's will: morality from survival of the fittest, engineering from evolution. A watch ⌚from a plant 🪴. What, in the faculties of human beings, makes us linguistic? Out of what source did it emerge? Is language just the means by which we classify? Are our individual wills responsible for the reclassification? Or is Nature, its mystery, responsible for inducing us into this process?

    The Laws of nature?. Which one comes first....the nature or the laws? In a living human society generally....human comes first then only makes rules they called laws. It is natural that only an alive and intelligent being makes laws. Universal matters don't make laws of nature, living plants don't make laws of nature, living animals don't make laws of nature and intelligent living human beings don't make laws of nature but all obedient to the laws of nature. So it is a common sense to conclude that the laws of nature are made by The Almighty - The All-Living - The All-Knowing - The All- Powerful - The All-Intelligent Perfect Being....The Whoever in control of the nature. The laws of nature determine how - the ways of the inhabitants(everything) of nature survive according to their respective natural attributes. In alQuran these natural ways is known as " sunnatu Allah" in Arabic and the natural attributes of every habitant of the universe is their " fitrah" respectively. The specific extension of laws of nature that fit for human fitrah/natural attributes are the religiuos laws (Syariah) those have been revealed in the Books of Revelation from time to time (fitting to their time) through the Messengers of God Allah which is the final one alQuran through The Prophet Muhammad SAW.

    The laws of nature start with the density and pressure of the dark matter of space. Dark matter is made of electron neutrinos. The constant pressure of this matter causes the gravitational constant. Heat is what manipulates this field when the mass destroys electrons and turns them into electron neutrinos. This energized matter is gravitationally invisible. The field from space pushes through the outgoing matter to produce gravity. When the heat is gone from the mass, this reaction stops and so does gravity.

    Where does the Laws of Nature come from? Interesting. However, there is no need to look for a creator. The way I see it is that from the big bang, the accident that created life and evolve and survived through time became the standard, meaning laws. Laws that survived are basically immutable because other laws could not create life and are pointless. In summary, simple accidents that evolve and survived became the standard laws. It is like DVD Blue Ray vs DVD basic. DVD Blue Ray survived and became the standard. The exception is that accidents don't need a creator like DVD Blue Ray.

    Of course it looks old; it _is_ old. A lot of people are confused as to what Closer To Truth is. It's not Robert Kuhn's personal KZread channel. It's a repository for old episodes and clips of old episodes of a public television series he has hosted since the year 2000. He has recently made some interviews exclusively for KZread. But these are called "Closer To Truth: Chats" and are a different format (one on one Zoom chats that run about an hour or so). Most of these interviews are well over ten years old. Even a lot of the 'newer' episodes (i.e. late 2010s) aren't actually new, but are new edits of old videos with new visual effects added (such as those dramatic shots shown in between interviews of Kuhn staring mournfully at the ocean or walking in a NYC crowd etc). They never show the _really_ _really_ old episodes, circa 2000, when it was a much simpler set up, doing interviews in a television studio as opposed to museums or university lounges or old Victorian houses etc. But I digress...

    So we know two, actually three things didn't change since the dawn of time, gravity, elements with their atomic properties and empty space. But how can we be sure that's true, depends how precise gravitational constant can be determined or massive objects can experience linear acceleration, except it falls weaker with square of a distance or something subtle like that. Nobody knows exactly what gravity is, so there might be anomalies present over cosmological time. Not sure we know everything there is to know about atoms either, elements radiate all kinds of energy potentials, only part of band width is visible with scientific instruments. There could be more or different radiation emissions back than, we need better instruments to be certain those physical properties has never changed. We might never know, it's not like somebody could fly back to universe beginning and take a look, reality we see trough best telescopes doesn't exist any more. Worst problem is empty space. When it comes to nothing, anything goes really. That ancient void could be a volume of space we know today or something completely different, like there was no virtual particles fluctuations, emptiness was glowing with some dim radiation or it was really nothing nothing, there's no way of testing any of that. One thing we know from basic hypothesis, there was no old light in an early universe, nothing was shining on those first galaxies from the past, except light of spontaneous creation of everything that exist since than. What happens with atoms if they had to reflect pure, virgin light of creation, there must be things we can't even imagine in those blurry pictures coming to us from the edge of space time. What are the alternatives, universe never change, how is that even possible, it would be like looking at construction site and a finished architecture only a split second after, that would be the greatest impossibility of all.

On his homepage, he explains: "To reinstate the proper understanding of the Vedic system, this project translates all the Six Systems of Philosophy demonstrating their coherence. Each system is drawn from the Vedic texts, although describes reality from a different vantage point. Thus, the same world is sometimes described as meaning, sometimes as matter, sometimes as language and logic, sometimes as atoms, sometimes as an all-pervading consciousness, and sometimes as a living organism, or a person. These descriptions illustrate how an alternative view of matter, science, language, logic, and reality formerly existed. The truth of this reality required us to simultaneously understand many perspectives, which were then presented as different systems of philosophy.
