Why the Laws of Nature? | Episode 411 | Closer To Truth

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 in your kitchen. Down deep, what are the laws of nature? What makes them "laws"? And where do they come from? Featuring interviews with Martin Rees, Steven Weinberg, Freeman Dyson, Peter Atkins, Lee Smolin, and Bas van Fraassen.

    Quote from my Dad, “If you always have questions then your learning has no limits” He was a man of few words but when he spoke one listened. Incidentally he also said that people are to hung up with the question , “Why am I here”, to which he would say there is only one answer that would prevail the passage of time, and that was, “We/I am here to leave this world better than I found it”. When I was young I never liked this explanation, but as I got older I realised what it really meant and how true he was . Take Care . R .

    I think first we need to recognize the fact that identifying and describing the laws of nature (albeit in great detail) is not the same thing as being privy to their ultimate causes. Secondly, the fact that the laws of nature, as far as we could tell, are Universal strongly points at the possibility that there is a deeper layer of truth about the nature and the workings of the Universe that, so far at least, we have no access to or inkling of. For instance, we know that energy can neither be created nor destroyed; rather, it can only be transformed or transferred from one form to another. We could even theoretically and experimentally prove the validity of the law of the conservation of energy, and yet we have no idea why it exists to begin with. The why of it hints at a hidden reality/theory that has so far eluded us.

    Laws of the Universe exist Independent of anyone's personal beliefs in the existence of the Laws of the Universe. Just as man-made laws govern society globally, Universal Laws govern the entire Universe. Un-directed random natural processes have never been observed or experimentally demonstrated to be capable of producing any form of laws. As scientifically confirmed, non-material laws are the product of only Mind / Consciousness / Intelligence.

    What If the reason we have these laws is because you and I and every being that can observe these laws is only able to when these laws exist, this is the anthropic principle. Essentially each moment could have zillions of years between and by definition our consciousness can only ask this question each time all the ‘laws of nature’ apply. Maybe these moments are not separated by time but something else or maybe they’re not separated at all. Subjectivity of course they’re not separated at all because that’s the nature of consciousness; it’s seamless from one moment to the next. Objectively however trying to peer beyond at an ultimate reality giving rise to this phenomenon are things different from what we perceive? I guess that’s what Robert means by are there things hidden? Yes there are things hidden, hidden through logic because you simply can’t observe what you can’t observe. Observers are only ever going to be observers. I suppose we may never have an answer in all eternity, never closer to truth? but It’s still amazing how we can ask these questions!

    @@NaturalFuture I’m not saying there needs to be observers to ‘observe reality into existence’. Of course it could be that ultimate fundamental laws are not contingent on observers at all, but one thing that is contingent on observers is simply everything that’s being observed. Now I can see why you’d think I said we need observers to create ‘reality’, but Importantly what we observe is never the actual thing (Kant:things in themselves) but simply just a thought (phenomena). So when we observe, whenever we observe we’re not observing the actual thing but the actual phenomena possibly caused by the ‘thing in itself’ (that which is external) of course the thing itself could be wildly different to what we observe for instance it could be lots of 1 and 0s, even your whole brain and body is just an observed thing. So I’m saying observation may not be fundamental reality, we don’t know what causes the other.

    The most fundamental of laws is the laws of physical relationships. Bigger, Smaller, Faster, Slower, Left, Right, Up, Down, In, Out, More, Less. These things are immutable, and don't depend observation. All existence, and sciences, depend on these relationships to exist and be consistent. Unfortunately, most of these scientist cant see the forest for the trees. The fact that they skipped over and take these most basic of "laws" is telling. They are laws that can't even conceivably be broken, and EVERYONE takes for granted.

    If you did not know the rules of chess, you could infer them by observing the patterns in the movements of the pieces during chess games. The patterns would not be the rules, the patterns would be generated by the rules. So, where do the rules of chess exist? They do not exist in chess books, they are simply represented there by ink marks on paper. The rules of chess exist in the minds of players and generate observable patterns in the physical movements of pieces. Where do the laws of nature exist? In the mind of God.

The Motion-Principle is a set of creator-principles. (As effect the Real Illusion of Motion) The Law of Motion is absolutely fundamental for the Eternal Life-performance. We can differ between Eternal and Local Laws and Logic, but the 'local' is based on the Eternal Laws and Logic.

    Laws of the Universe exist Independent of anyone's personal beliefs in the existence of the Laws of the Universe. Just as man-made laws govern society globally, Universal Laws govern the entire Universe. Un-directed random natural processes have never been observed or experimentally demonstrated to be capable of producing any form of laws. As scientifically confirmed, non-material laws are the product of only Mind / Consciousness / Intelligence.

    We are controlled by laws of nature. There is a general force of nature, and two opposite forces-bestowal and reception-extend from it. We exist between these forces, and both of these qualities affect us. Then, the question arises: How do we develop under the influence of these forces? Where do we act? Where are we free? How do we accumulate and correlate these two forces within ourselves? How can we build ourselves out of them? These are the questions that the wisdom of Kabbalah engages in: how we receive these two forces in an optimal balance, and with their help, shape ourselves so as to resemble the very laws of nature, to arise and reach equivalence of form with the force of bestowal in nature. These very laws gave us the opportunity to control the pace of our progress in accepting them upon ourselves. That is the point of our freewill. How could we act if we do not have freewill? Who would we be? Would we just be like robots, always under control? Until now, we have always been under control. What does it mean? Nature as if injects a drop of egoism-the desire to enjoy at others’ expense-into us, and then it does so a little more, and a little more again, and we then get the impetus to move toward all kinds of egoistic goals. The more our egoism inflates, the more we become willing to move to increasingly gain at the expense of others. Nature constantly squeezes the syringe into us until it eventually infuses us with the full amount of egoism. Our era is characterized by the syringe of egoism having become completely injected into us, with no more egoism left to inject. That is why we have nowhere left to run. Where do we head from here? What do we do? Moreover, egoism has become global and integral. In the beginning, we felt good because we reached egoistic global connections in the world and thought that everything would be fine. However, when such connections started depending on everyone, we turned out to be nature’s opposite. At this juncture, we find ourselves with a major dilemma, and we need to work out what we do about it. Where our fully-inflated egoism coupled with our tightening global connections brings us to increasing problems around the world, today we require a new form of connection-enriching education that would have the ability to guide us on how to change our egoistic connections to altruistic ones. That is the key to a shift to a harmonious and peaceful world.

    The fact that our universe exists and is reasonably stable dictates that there are fundamental laws that govern it. If not, it would not exist as long as it has, and is likely to exist in the distant future. Start with the four identified fundamental forces in nature: electromagnetic. weak nuclear, strong nuclear, and gravity. Then, on top of that the laws of thermodynamics, Newton's laws, and so on. If you look closely, you will find that many of these so-called laws are estimates based on observations, induction, and deduction. They hold under most circumstances. So, self-sustaining complex dynamic systems have laws by necessity.

A journey of asking question in this respect only requires 1... 'What is belief', if he asked me I would say, belief is personal, and kept close to the heart, it decided by you for you, through personal experience, a belief can't be proven by you to another, or by other to you, as this simply leads to believing in the words of another person.... Anyone can believe anything they like, most who believe in Ghosts believe in them because they have direct experience, but they don't go around trying to get others to believe it too, because it simply isn't necessary.... the only reason some people who refer to themselves as Christians or whatever religion, go around debating is their a God, is the bible real, was Jesus a human who walked the earth, if you truly believed it, it's non debatable, if you don't but want to then the act of debating can strengthen a weak belief..... but when it's true belief, then you simply know, and that's all that matters, allow others to do the same.
