Methodical preliminary exercises: an introduction
'With something being contradicted
it is not proven that it is untrue,
just as not being debated
would prove that someting is true.'
B. Pascal. Thoughts
Einstein,
the ether and relativism
If we want to
figure out out the truth about
the facts that make up our reality, we have to begin with determining
the method to proceed. In ancient India it is called nyâya,
which
according
to the Sanskrit dictionary means something like method,
standard, rule, axiom, plan, the right manner, justice, logical
argument or inference. In the logic of our planned approach emerges, so
as to arrive at the proper inference, an image of reality, a standard
way of operating in the right manner. This logic, itself thereto called
nyâyika, consists of five limbs:
1 General
thesis.
2 Doubt.
3 Counter argument.
4 Conclusion.
5 Summary.
It is
of course
possible to call for the philosopher R. Descartes (1596-1650) with his
method so very much alike, and the philosophers I. Kant (1724-1804) for
the duality and G. W. F. Hegel (1770-1831) for the idea of thesis
opposing antithesis in order to arrive at a synthesis, we may consult
S. Freud (1856-1939) for an analysis and F. Nietzsche (1844-1900) for
realizing ourselves, but then we are building one house with many
master builders. There is after all also the (elder) philosopher W. v. Ockham (1285-1349) who, with his
well-known 'razor'-argument,
poses the question why we would utilize different elements when a
single one would suffice. To prevent a subsequent tumbling over one
another of master builders for our filognostic mansion, we first of
all, for the first half of part I, limit ourselves to the vedic vision
in reation to Descartes, since he specifically has the method as his
subject. And even him we will have to abandon ultimately, since also
he, not conversant with it as he was in his time, was incapable of
covering the nonwestern tradition about it prior to him nor the
empirical science after him, however diligent he was. Rationality is
something beautiful and good, reason is essential, the method of great
importance, but it is also vital, as he states himself, to be
comprehensive in the end. The general thesis is therefore, with having
put India first as the oldest culture known to us, that that old
culture, as the one master builder, suffices for a philosophical lead
to tackle the problems of modern man and to arrive at the filognosy of
a syncretic approach of science, spirituality and religion. For
contrary to Descartes do we with them find evidence of a respect for
scientific facts as the existence of a galaxy in the midst of other
galaxies, as also a clear description of the problems we recognize as
typically modern. It is of importance to work for a coherent paradigm
with which the complete whole of our reality can be properly covered,
matters of the spirit and the gross of matter can be done justice, and
with which everything and everyone may fit in, so that the person in
his full identity is respected.
Since, as the preface points out, we have to link this love for knowledge
to a
certain order of time if we want to have a life with it, will we also
have to involve a physicist like Albert Einstein (1879-1955) because he, as
the figurehead of our modern
intelligence, promulgated the relativity of the time concept. Let's start with him for
exercising the method. According
him would, to his
conception of E = M x C2 for the universe, the speed of light be the
constant in the
dynamical universe of time and matter. Time according Einstein and many
others who thought to have understood him, is always different and
depends on the frame of observation. The correctness of his theory,
implies that the absolute value of time computations is illusory and
that we, politically, therefore (...) factually can regulate, settle
and control the time any way we like. I Newton (1643-1727) would be wrong with his
absolute idea of a
natural time as the measure for determining our lawfulness of material
existence. That would be a position all too deterministic. So be it,
but the problem is that we end up with a couple of conflicting ideas if we give
Einstein the
advantage of doubt in determining what is absolute. Firstly is it so
that we might not understand Einstein quite right. Time and space are
to his theory not exactly the same, viz. do not entirely team up.
According his theory there is a difference between the time indicated
by an atomic clock that in an airplane flew around the world and the
time of a similar atomic clock that was kept in its place. This was
tried and one indeed found a very minute difference between the atomic
clocks the way the theory predicted, even though this experiment from 1972
according some was thus unsatisfactorily conducted that factually no
definitive conclusion should have been attached to it (see A.G. Kelly: Hafele & Keating Tests; Did They Prove
Anything?).
Thus is Einstein correct saying that the
time of a certain place must be taken relative? If so, is it then
really so that this minute difference, with which also astronauts e.g.
would have to return home, would justify the difference in time and
space we find with the standard time of our civil order as compared to
the time indicated by sundials? In China does that difference, at the
beginning of the 21th century, amount to some three hours which in the
west of China leads to the civil disobedience of peasants ignoring the
imposition of the state adamantly, as they with a to the local time
settled clock, regulate their daily business. When Einstein thinks to
have found an exception to the rule of the newtonian link of time and
space, doesn't that factually imply that that connection is thereby
confirmed? Isn't folk wisdom still defending that the exception
confirms the rule? Then why reject Isaac Newton with his devout,
religious and classical respect for the natural measures of time the
way they are for normal people and planets?
"...the failure of the world's physicists to find
such a
(satisfactory) theory, after many years of intensive research," says
Dirac, "leads me to think that the aetherless basis of physical theory
may have reached the end of its capabilities and to see in the Aether a
new hope for the future".

physics in 1933

It is even worse with the
theory of Einstein
so fundamental to our modern relativistic mind and aversion against
especially personal absolutes. Recently (summer 2005) was the theory by
the italian physicist Maurizio Consoli questioned to the occasion of
experimental findings in an experiment by the german physicist Stephan
Schiller in Düsseldorf, on the speed of light that, according
Consoni, the theorist interpreting the data with greater scrutiny and
detachment than he did, wouldn't be uniform in all directions, and that
it thus would be directional and that therefore there would be a
certain order of light, a framework, in the universe. Such a paradigm clash to
experimental
findings had happened before when a certain researcher named D. C.
Miller in 1933 meant that Michaelson and Morly, the physicists that in 1887
initiated the
idea of a constant light speed that Einstein took as a basis for his
theory, had made mistakes in working from averaged values to the
rotational speed of the earth. Before him had Ernst Mach (1838-1916) concluded that there was no definitive
proof
for the so-called ether as the fixed frame of reference for a variable
light speed in a vacuum. To the
measurements of the light speed that according Miller differed relative
to the position of the earth, would the earth nevertheless move with a
speed of eight kilometers per second through a medium that would be
something like the ether, the fundamental element in which all
scientists before Einstein believed as being the medium in which light
would vibrate it's waves. After Miller there were, by Yuri M. Galaev e.g., many more tests conducted
with this so-called M. & M.-experiment with varying results. The scientists in 2005, under
the lead of
Schiller discovering the same type of deviations, couldn't accept their
own findings thus; they couldn't believe that Einstein's theory
wouldn't be correct that states that such findings can't be right, and
so they attributed the deviations found to systematic error. From a
human point of view that is understandable, since the consequences for
our presently dominating way of thinking about time and space are hard
to oversee.
Concerning the speed of light
itself that in its absolute value seems to have dethroned time as being
an absolute measure, there is another remarkable issue to take notice
of. There exists light that goes three hundred times faster. Scientists
think nothing special of it since the end of the twentieth century. How
can that be? According Einstein in 1905 nothing would go faster than
the absolute speed of light namely. But light is, ever since it halfway
the nineties of the twentieth century was discovered, capable of
speeding 1,7 as fast through a special fiber optic cable, and even
three hundred times as fast when driven through a gas cloud. The
solution to this riddle is there from 1910: the limit of the speed of
light is only true for coded light, not for the light itself.
The physicist Daniel Gauthier confirmed this remedy for saving
Eintein's theory of relativity in 2003, by again stating that according
his findings the limit of the speed of light indeed, so it seems, is
true for coded light carrying information, but not for uncoded light.
Thus seen is the speed of light a conditional or apparent constant and
not an absolute constant. Depending the medium and the type of light,
may light possibly go infinitely fast and can thus Einstein's formula,
which builds on a speed limit or an absolute constant of speed in the
vacuum of outer space, actually not be correct at all. To normal
circumstances on our planet earth may the speed of light seem constant,
but it seems to be so that, in the special circumstances of other
conduits and/or fields, we with Einstein are dealing with something
that is more a theory of constants than with a theory able to declare
time relative a justified manner (Einstein himself preferred the
formulation 'a theory of invariants'). By and by it offers no surprise
anymore that, safe for a couple of zealous scientific fanatics,
virtually no one understands Einstein. For he, from the perspective of
our modern options, doesn't quite compute.
The
proof
is
piling up further. A certain physicist Tom Van Flandern states
in an article titled The Speed of Gravity &endash; What the
Experiments Say: Physics Letters A 250:1-11 (1998): 'Recognition
of
a
faster-than-lightspeed
propagation of gravity, as indicated by all
existing experimental evidence, may be the key to taking conventional
physics to the next plateau.' The effect of gravity goes many
times faster than light. And that also is incommensurate with Einstein.
Another matter of dispute among physicists concerning
the speed of light, is the in 2002 by the internationally acclaimed
physicist, author and broadcaster Paul C. W. Davies in Australia found deviance in the
fine-structural or nuclear constant akin to the speed of light, which
would prove that the speed of light would gradually have decreased in
our cosmic ontogenesis. Also João Magueijo (in Faster Than
the Speed of Light reasoning in 2003 against the so-called Guth
inflation-theory that would explain that effect away) states that if
light in the beginning would have been faster, that that would offer a
better explanation for the facts of the as yet maintained theory with
the research data found. But the magazine Nature answered his
scientific soliciting with the reply that though he, with what he
offered, had found an explanation for some cosmological matters, he
still had no comprehensive solution to offer and thus had to be turned
down! Wasn't Einstein with all his followers also today not searching
for the 'Theory of Everything'? Must we positively accept him then?
It seems that landed here we're ready for
the psychologist that studies the phenomenon of rationalization and
repression in association with systems of thought. We're thinking here
of the analogy of the analytical psychologist Carl Jung We denken hier
aan de analogie van de analytische psycholoog Carl Jung (1875-1961)
die, gelijk aan Consoli met Einstein's constanten, Sigmund Freud
(1856-1939), who, equal to Consoli in relating to Einstein's constants,
called Sigmund Freud, the original psychoanalyst and father of that
science - and, notably, a friend of Einstein -, himself a complete
neurotic. And let's be honest here; is relativism really effective in
assuring the progress of mankind on it's way to peace and justice? The
atomic bomb and the nuclear power plant that do effectively convert
mass into energy, don't seem to succeed in it. Maybe we have to
reconsider our dear Father of Time as a preliminary conclusion
accepting that Einstein maybe wasn't right in every way. Science
happens to consist of trial and error, that is the power of its
progress.
Doubt the galore thus with the
existing
relativistic paradigm. One doesn't have to be a rocket-scientist for
that either. On the internet could in 2005 in in the dutch science n forum wetenschapsforum.nl a lay-discussionbe followed
between in
physics interested enthusiasts arguing on the particle of light. From
their guesswork it is evident how impossible it is to understand all
the peculiar conclusions of Einstein's theory. Light would also be
measurable in photons. A light particle with a base mass of zero would,
moving around, be a package of energy, that does have mass. But how
could such a package of energy having the speed of light, to which
according the theory the particle, heavy of kinetic energy, would
endlessly increase in weight, there not be a gravitational effect in
the direction of a black hole like the center of the galaxy? (this by
the way also belongs to the implications of Düsseldorf). In order
to maintain Einstein can the particle of light not be permitted to have
mass, although it has energy. We also learned from Einstein that energy
and mass add up with the speed of light according the formula E = M x C2,
which
then
would
implicate that we'd have energy that can't be mass and
that thus the formula, again, would be wrong. So sang the dutch pop-group
Doe Maar: 'e=mc2...before the bomb drops', at the end
of the song with that name. And
that is what the
lay thinks, and in Holland even sings, about it.

And they allowed Apollonius to
ask questions
and he asked them of what they thought the cosmos was composed. But
they replied:
"Of
elements."
"Are there
then four" he asked.
"Not four,"
said Iarchas, "but five."
"And how
can there be a fifth," said Apollonius,"alongside of water and air and
earth and fire ?"
"There is
the ether", replied the other,"which we must regard as the stuff of
which gods are made, for just as all mortal creatures inhale the air,
so do immortal and divine natures inhale the ether."
Apollonius
again asked which was the first of the elements, and Iarchas answered:
"All
are simultaneous, for a living creature is not born bit by bit."
"Am I,"
said Apollonius, "to regard the universe as a living creature?"
"Yes," said
the other, "if you have a sound knowledge of it, for it engenders all
living things."

But it can also be stated
philosophically.
In the vedic literatures we
know from the philosopher Sayana in the Rig-veda verse 1:50: 'Thus it
is remebered: you [O Sun] who traverse 2202 yojanas in half a nimes'a'.
With
S.B.
3.11: 3-10 it then appears that with a yojana
of 31 km the light speed of ± 300.000 km/s is very closely
described (see Wikipedia). But, o blessed truth, on closer
examination of the vedic reference in that same Bhâgavatam
of Vyâsa turns the yojana in verse 5.25: 1 out to stand also for a measure of
something
like a light year at the scale of the galaxy, at the scale of the
s'is'umâra, the dolphin, as the Purâna calls
the Milky Way. In other words: the light speed according a coordinated
vedic vision is variable, depending the frame of reference. As for this
frame were, for the philosopher Aristotle (384-322 B.C.), the two forms of time enough to speak
of
the cosmos: the linear and the cyclic movement of the universe. For
that sufficed in order to speak of a finite universe, divided in two
realms: that of the unchangeable and unique celestial sphere of the
ether leading to the cyclic of creation, which is perfect, and that of
earthly matter which is characterized by the linear, which is
imperfect, is finite. According René Descartes, picking up on
such a division of space with the element of the ether, is there no such thing as
empty space, a real
vacuum, but only a universe full of interaction, and thus wouldn't
there ever be a constant speed of light measurable but rather a speed
limited by the medium through which it moves. Consequently we see the
three hundred times faster light impulse sent through a gas cloud. After Descartes did, in his
respect for his philosophical predecessor, in a blend of science and
speculative philosophy, the physicist J. C. Maxwell in 1875 in the first edition
of the
Encyclopedia Britannica initially describe the problematic and
mysterious medium of the ether as follows: 'Whatever difficulties we
may have in forming a consistent idea of the constitution of the
æther, there can be no doubt that the interplanetary and
interstellar spaces are not empty, but are occupied by a material
substance or body, which is certainly the largest, and probably the
most uniform body of which we have any knowledge.' That substance in,
or from, space is then that primal state of matter which formed the
stars and planets and which is always there in the background as their
basis, as one complete whole of potential space-time, as the potency of
the ether, the effect of a coherent forcefield the way it in its
operation was noticed by Aristotle already in western philosophy: the
ether as the formative basis for all in existence. The notion of a
relativistic four-dimensional space-time, the normal 'euclidian' space
linked to the dimension of time, was defended by Einstein in the Brittanica
edition of 1922. But Einstein couldn't ascribe an absolute value to the
simultaneity of occurrences, such an ethereal and absolute, momentous
drive, which by Carl Jung e.g. is called synchronicity, he could not
acknowledge. We,
thus
seen do so,
because of the relativity of the medium,
not really know what we're exactly up to with the speed of light. The
results of the measurements are diverging, that's a sure thing.
Even Einstein himself who, in facing the alleged constancy
of light speed, was credited for having called off the existence of the
ether, devised later on a new theory departing from a different concept
of the ether (see also Ludwik Kostro: Einstein and the Ether). He stated in 1920 about
the ether: 'There
can be no space nor any part of space without gravitational potentials"
and next he concluded with: "Recapitulating, we may say that according
to the general theory of relativity space is endowed with physical
qualities; in this sense, therefore, there exists an ether.
According to the general theory of relativity space without ether is
unthinkable; for in such space there not only would be no propagation
of light, but also no possibility of existence for standards of space
and time (measuring-rods and clocks), nor therefore any space-time
intervals in the physical sense. But this ether may not be thought of
as endowed with the quality characteristic of ponderable media, as
consisting of parts which may be tracked through time. The idea of
motion may not be applied to it.' (lecture, University of Leyden). Thus
general relativity implies an ether, but Einstein disagreed with an
absolute concept of time with the ether, the way we know it from the
dutchman Hendrik A. Lorentz (1853 - 1928), who before him had said:
'One cannot deny to the bearer of these properties [the ether] a
certain substantiality, and if so, then one may, in all modesty, call
true time the time measured by clocks which are fixed in this medium,
and consider simultaneity as a primary concept'. Actually is the ether
just the empty space we normally know as a limited gravitational
forcefield, like that of the sun ('curved space'), the Milky Way
(ethereal space or the Force) or the special, not limited and
the, according Hubble's so-called red-shift of the light spectrum,
endlessly expanding, intergalactic space (the so-called space-time, or the original space or
ether - without
the time-differentiation of the linear v.s. the cyclic time - of
undifferentiated matter just after the Big Bang, in Sanskrit to the
oldest traditions called pradhâna). Thus seen there are
different types of
relativistic ether and space. The three main forms of the ether
differing by locality as mentioned here are vedically known as the three forms of Vishnu:
Kâranodakas'âyî Vishnu,
Garbhodakas'âyî Vishnu and Kshirodakas'âyî
Vishnu. With this has our primary thesis that deriving from the vedic
concept of order would suffice then been confirmed. Already before Empedocles
(490-430 v.Chr.) said: 'by the aether, the aether divine', was the
truth of this element as being essential to the concept of the soul already acknowledged in the
culture of
Sanskrit. But enough about this.
Considering
the
community
of
physicists in denial of a relativistic ether the way
Einstein stated it later, may be concluded that there is a lot of
natural physicist's theory in neglect of Einstein, even using his name
in the defense of its denial. Einstein was evolving as it should with
being a good and self-critical scientist, and thus can we accept him,
filognostically knowing the error as a challenge for self-improvement.
He, not succeeding in formulating the 'theory of everything' had to
contend with internal inconsistencies and so had we after him. So is it
also possible that the inability to detect deviations in the speed of
light can be caused by the moving along of the earth on the stream of
energy of the ether. The element of the ether would lead to energy
vortexes which, just as with something floating down a river, do not
result in a relative motion between the ether and the earth, and even
so wouldn't there be any effect on the measured speed of light. This is
a position defended by people at the edge of science who are often portrayed as
pseudoscientists: Nikola Tesla
(1856-1943), Viktor Schauberger (1885-1958), Wilhelm Reich
(1897-1959) and John E.W. Keely (1827-1898). The latter one
wrote in 1893: 'There is no
dividing of matter and force into two distinct terms, as they both are
one. Force is liberated matter. Matter is force in bondage'. These
scientists tried to demonstrate that ethereal energy, or orgone energy
as Reich demonstrated to Einstein, even though invisible, is very real
(see also J. Medeo). With before our eyes the modern of quantum physics
also
speaking in these terms of indeterminate energy, we so may ask
ourselves what factually real science would be. There is a
paradigmatical struggle, but to say what would be true, is for time to
tell. Error can be terror (E=M x (T)error2), science and
politics are, just like religion and the state, only separated by
principle, not in reality. We are warned about error in science and
matters of the ego, especially in mathematics deriving from possibly
wrong suppositions as the non-existence of the ether or imaginary
constants. So
was there in the nineties a news item about astronomers who thought to
have discovered planets around a star. They later on really did, but at
that time was the deviation in the so-called parallax of their
measurements wholly attributable to the erroneously not reckoning with the
equation
of
time,
which is the consequence of the oblique axis of the earth
and the noncircular orbit of the earth around the sun. Thus they made a
fool of themselves with a false alarm of significant results.
The
idea
basic
to
this doubt is that the mathematical is a reductionistic
way of reasoning in which one is never certain of one's subject since
information was lost in the reduction. The term A in an equation isn't
necessarily the same as an A elsewhere in the equation or in another
equation. That also is relativity and lawfulness. With A unequal to A,
a good Apple is not equal to a rotten Apple, finds the illusion of
order as suggested by mathematics its end, or, as psychologists like B. F. Skinner (1904-1990) state it: one
will have to accept the
complexity of the universe and admit that not everything can be known
or reduced to a formula.
In what respect Einstein
specifically is
correct or not in the end, whether the doubt as mentioned and the
experimenting is justified and correct or not, certain is that the time
as the controlling factor - linked to the place in that what we call space-time - indeed, logically seen,
must be relatively
dependent, like also the speed of light depends on the medium through
which it travels. And that constitutes a second argument against the
politicized relativistic justification maintained for time zones for
instance in which to the contrary the time is separated from the place.
In other words: to use Einstein to reject the absolute of time, next
declare that time depends on the frame of observation, or the place,
and then again with the same relativistic argument arrange for time
zones in which is broken with the dependency to the place, is of course
more than anything else an exercise of fearful, neurotic and compulsory
behavior in running from Father Time. Lorentz must have been right with
his, by us at this
site therefore respected, local, true
time clocks directed at the
ether and not Einstein with his exception that resulted from the denial
of the ether. One may defend that time is absolutely relative and that
there is a law of time stating that the time and all that links to it,
must be different always because of the element of movement proper to
it, but to simply endlessly manipulate time as a dependent variable
must certainly be regarded as being a form of denial concerning the,
with all one's matter, being subjected to the time as an independent
variable, that, apart from being creative and maintaining is also
evidently destructive.
If we do take the criticism serious, seems the einsteinian
fallacy to
consist of confusing speed with change. Speed is not an absolute value,
not as absolute as the sacred three of the basic elements of physics
are, viz space, time and matter. The with space-time
manifesting matter, offers those three elements which as the physical
trinity of God define each other and cannot be reduced to something
else. With the philosopher D. Hume
(1711-1776) in An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding, they are called extention,
motion and
solidity, and with Vyâsadeva, akas'a, prakriti and kâla.
They
constitute
each
other's condition of existence in creation, one
cannot think of one without the other. Time is the life, the
movement of matter in space. Space is the distance of time, the
phenomenon of gravity, in between material objects. Matter is
the electromagnetic effect of the influence of time upon the potency of
expanding space, the time which from being linear by the law of
reaction became cyclic and thus in opposition transformed the gravity,
the primal potency thus, into solid matter (be it not entirely as
evidenced by the inability to find the so-called invisible 'dark
matter', which according S.B. 5.20: 38 covers three quarters of our creation). The
entire creation
is a permutation of the concepts of time, space and matter. Energy e.g.
is an electromagnetic phenomenon of spaced-out matter, the matter which
of being purely hot energetic plasma in the beginning, concentrated or
condensed into gas and vapor, next became fluid and after that
solidified into matter, to which light is then the least dense, the
fastest of matter in the beginning. Vedically is it called 'the glance'
of the Lord (S.B. 2.1: 31), and in the Bible is it in Genesis said
that there was
light in the darkness. Space is the gravitational phenomenon which sets
the limits either to matter in the form of stars and planets in curved
space - the ether we cover with our radios, or to the Milky Way in the
ethereal space we can see with our naked eye in the celestial sky, or
the cosmic time-ball of expanding galaxies as we may see with a
telescope as grouped together in the primal realm of time space where
one doesn't really find actual matter yet but just the energetic
potency for it. And also time we thus know in three, just like space
and matter: the linear movement of the primal substance as we find it
in the expansion of the cosmos, the movement of the matter wich opposed
to that spins around mutually attracted in a galaxy and the movement
through space-time of the 'timeless' but living soul, figuring as the
'no-time' of time consciousness, which constitutes the negation of
matter, and which, false in identification, with the inauthentic forms
an ego. The space, the relative phenomenon of gravitation, is the
ether; the matter is the electromagnetic manifestation and time is the
life of it all. That is the physical basis of a factually perceivable
complete whole for all our arguments.

As
for
Einstein's
erroneous
supposition is it, as thus envisioned, the
speed that changes, like everything subject to time. That is the law of
time: the change is the absolute, not that what changes. The change stays the change,
even though it changes, just like space or ether stays the space or ether,
even though
situated elsewhere, and in the end matter also turns out to be
absolute, not in its temporary form, but as an electromagnetic
phenomenon of energetic contraction without which the first two carry
no meaning, even when it's as thin as light. Something apparently
invariable and constant, like a quasar for instance, constitutes an
illusion: it some time found its existence and will, by the law of
time, some time cease to exist, and is thus not absolutely existing.
Thus no, Einstein therefore,
even
though we accept his being committed to the relativistic ether,
cannot be the lead for a responsible philosophical plea for a certain
order of time. We
must build on the absolute of time, the absolute of change existing as
the eternal life of all matter in space.
Reasoning methodically consequent says the counter-argument
here to the
doubting of the
absolute of time at this point, that
declaring
the
time relative and dependent still not excludes the
absolute reality thereof as an independent variable. Or, as
dualistically Immanuel
Kant
(1724-1804)
would say: time for
itself, unknown as it is in its full glory - according also the french
philosopher Henri Bergson (1859-1941) - is factually not in need of
your existence to
exist itself, while the time on itself the way you live it as an
experience of being - discussed then again by the existentialist Martin Heidegger (1889-1976) - essentially has no real grip on it,
despite of all politically and pragmatically inspired manipulations.
That time lived and controlled implies only, as known from Hegel, the
being estranged when one has to abide without the scientific of
validity and reliability the way it manifests itself in the modern
arbitrariness of standard time since the French Revolution with its
failure of time-reform. As a conclusion is the time thus, axiomatic, as
already defended by the oldest culture of India as an independent
variable, an absolute of change and determinant of the ether, as a form
of God, our general thesis, and the doubt concerns then the
self-determined conditioning order with it which is naturally relative
and possibly of a good or bad quality we can discuss.
Summarizing amounts the general thesis
of filognosy then
to the time as an independent godhead, force or order, that since the
days of yore, the way we know it from India, is present as a for the
creation, maintenance and destruction, all-determining factor in our
lives. The antithesis of relativism concerns the pragmatical need for a
knowable, existentially livable, controlled time we have to consider as
being relative. Facing the two positions of the natural absolute of
time and the cultural relative maintained thereto, do we thus arrive at
the insight that we are dealing with a paradigmatic matter that
compares to the difference between geocentric and heliocentric thought.
First we thought that we according Ptolemaeus (87-150), with God and Jesus
on earth, were the center of
the universe, and then we thought, since the bravery of Galileo Galilei
(1564 -1642) who to the ideas of Copernicus (1473 -
1543) contested geocentric Rome, that the sun was the center of the
universe and thus found our new era of scientific enlightenment. With
the progress of astronomy next we discovered our place in the galaxy,
and now, being tired of the politically divided and quarreling - but
still predominantly - heliocentric oriented sciences with their
compensatory relativism, it seems that with us taking seriously the
differences of the light speed that in inconclusive experimenting were
found in the absence of a conclusive paradigm, we, together with the
sun indeed do move through a medium called the ether. May the Force be
with us; for we have now arrived at galactocentric thinking, the new
paradigm for the 21th century, that defines us as being moved by an
all-powerful force that controls as well the earth, the moon and the
sun as the rest of the stars, a force moving us in the galactic whirl
about the black hole in the center, the mountain Meru of Vishnu and
Brahmâ, the eye of the universal storm created by the holy and
absolute Force, the Force of the Absolute of Galactic Cakra (cyclic)
Time that in its operation is known as the ether, the first effect in
creation (Brahma Sûtra Adh2.P3: 1-7). The evolution of the ether
is by sage Vyâsa
described as follows: 'From the identification [of the ego] with the
darkness of matter was of the transformation to that mode the [first
element of the] ether developed with its subtle form and quality of
sound which is indicative of as well the seen as the seer.' (S.B. 2.5: 25). In S.B. 11.15: 19 he then states that the Lord
must be
considered the personification of the ether and in S.B. 3.5: 32 that the ether may be
considered the symbolic
representation of the Supersoul, the local of God who impersonally is
known as the Time. Relating to the concept of time he then states (S.B.
3.26: 34): 'The activities and characteristics of
the element of the
ether accommodate for the room external and internal, being of all
living beings the field of activities of the vital air, the senses and
the mind.' According him refers the ether thus to as well the
'timeless' self of the consciousness of time as to the time-bound of
the outside world. So is there also considering the spiritual thus a
relative ether.
'For
a
truly
joyful and auspicious human work to flourish, must man have the
capacity to climb from the depths of his attachment at home up to the
ether. Ether here stands for the high flight of the high heavens, the
open real of the spirit.'
Martin Heidegger, 'Treatise on human thought'
|
With this paradigmatic shift are we, so
methodically
proceeding, thus faced with the counterargument that leads to the
conclusion that says that the order of time now can be discussed to its
paradigmatic qualities and effects. Like geocentric thinking proved to
be inferior to heliocentric thought, may now heliocentric thinking the
same way be inferior to the paradigm of galactocentric thought in
unfolding the knowledge in this and the next sections of our filognosy
to the order of time with the ether. For it is that new paradigm that
counts with a (circular) movement of the stars, the earth and the sun
through the - and let's stress this again - from the vedic culture thus
already known basic element of the ether (kha or akas'a)
that represents as well the forcefield of the galaxy, the primal
space-time, as the local order; the forcefield that possibly - but not
necessarily - results in the variations in the light speed found in the
different experiments and about which Einstein around 1920 said that he
in 1905 had passed a somewhat too radical judgement. When with that
discussion and supported by scientific experiment next the entire
problem of modern man is summed up and comprehended, have we thus
succeeded in our methodical purpose and arrived at a new paradigm for
the twenty-first century, a paradigm that resets the world-culture to
its classical values and cures (post-)modern, estranged man of his
bewildered state.
'Therefore
I
thought
in 1905 that in physics one should not speak of the ether at
all. This judgement was too radical though as we shall see with the
next considerations about the general theory of relativity. It moreover
remains, as before, allowed to assume a space-filling medium if one can
refer to electromagnetic fields (and thus also for sure matter) as the
condition thereof.'

2- The
Order of Time: structure of
the content
If we want to discuss the
qualities and effects of the order of time methodically, must we, as it
was stated
in
the
preface,
being
syncretic out of loving the knowledge, from the filognosy, pay
attention to science, as well as to spirituality and religion.
Syncretic thinking is the essence of the concept of gnosis thus
teaches us the classical spirituality of Christianity. The
internet-encyclopedia (en.wikipedia.org) states that gnosis,
to the authority of Gilles Quispel (1916) - an authoritative dutch researcher
of classical and
christian gnosticism - as a characteristic of religious movements, is
counted as the 'the third component of western culture', next to
reason and belief. Next to greek philosophy and Christianity would also
the gnosis, which we in a christian sense know since the second
century, have contributed considerably to the culture of
Western-Europe. 'Reason rules the domain of truth and wisdom, theology,
rules the domain of piety and obedience' says B. de Spinoza (1632 - 1677) in his Theological-political
treatise,
to
which
he rejects the mutual obligation of the two, but we do
filognostically, from our love of knowledge, defend that reason and
belief are mutually obliged, knowingly in the gnosis in which the
dissection and the principle, or the analysis and the spirituality,
constitute the bridge between science - which methodically uncovers the
truth and in wisdom detemines which fact and paradigm would be of
importance - and the art of the person (the theology) of the religion
that strives for piety with the political of the populace which
democratically enforces obedience. With us linking the concept of gnosis
to the vedic culture will we thus, without losing
ourselves in this or that gnostic tradition or finding ourselves
compromised by it heretically, unfold here a world view in which all
culture finds its reconciliation. The gnostic person is tyoically
described as someone who seeks to know God on an intimate basis, by the
pursuit of self-knowledge or nurturing of self-awareness; the
filognostic then is the one of love for this from the point of view of
the vedic truth. The filognosy as gnosis is contrary to the
western classical view of it not secret, even though, on the vedic
ground of the so-called paramparâ, a personal transfer of the
love for knowledge is considered conducive and the advise, and is it
surely also a matter of great importance to be in respect of a certain
confidentiality and discretion concerning the science of the person. It
is not polemic or anticlerical, it is based on all kinds of scientific
facts and is of belief on the basis of the vedic tenet that human
recollection and the ability to acquire and process knowledge always
falls short and that therefore scriptural authority is needed. Contrary
to classical gnosis there is thus no propensity for anarchy but
positively a certain degree of docility there concerning a certain
original person of spiritual authority, viz. the philosopher of
philosophers Vyâsadeva (±3200 B.C.), the
Indian who in the West sometimes is denounced as an anonymous because
his name would stand for a collection of sages who each on their turn
would have assembled the vedic verses. Even though he indeed
incorporates the unification of the entire field of philosophy and
religion, is the evidence for the denial of his name to our opinion
inconclusive though, just like there is neither sufficient evidence of
the so-called arian invasion of India that would position the source of
vedic civilization more outside of India and closer to us - on the
contrary. But concerning the vedic culture it is a critical docility we
work with. That culture from the Far East not adopting at it's face
value, but still simply and unequivocally with a certain lead being
absorbed, does take place then without the neglect of us being
Christians, Muslims or other minded believers and thinkers. So it can
for the one person take it's effect very traditionally hindustan-like,
while for an other it is more a nice and inspiring philosophical
exercise as it for even another one entails an enrichment of his
spiritual and political life. It is envisioned that none of our talents
and forms of association of living scientifically, spiritually and
multi-culturally believing is lost in recognizing the vedic science as
a source of inspiration and root of human civilization. The doctrinary
effort of the filognostic world view, as unfolded at this site,
concerns partly the opposing of all possible kinds of falsification, or
false unification of the ego, whether it concerns the falsification of
class-consciousness, political consciousness, religious consciousness
or the more scientific forms of arrogance, narrow-mindedness and
estrangement. B y the, with this postmodern
restart, of gnosticism therein having envisioned a constructive
spiritual reconciliation of science and religion, is there for each of
the three holy subjects of science, spirituality and religion mentioned
- which respectively deal with the facts, the principles and the
respect for the person - a duality which thus at this site results in a
division of six sections. These six sections correspond with the in
India used darshanas of the six classical
philosophical views there are to counter the human propensity for
falsifying the I-awareness of the soul and thus also of a certain order
of time with the ether. The nyâya of the logical approach
in India, was translated in the methodical/structural philosophical
considerations of this section; the vais'eshika of the more
atheistic indian mind of unification was translated in the figures and
terms of sober natural science; the sânkhya of analytical
philosophy was translated into an analytic section focussing on art;
the yoga of finding absorption was translated into the
spirituality of developing a certain abstract ability; the mimâmsâ
of the culture of rituals was translated into personal and religious
considerations and the vedânta culture of the
commentaries was translated into the spirit of political reform. These
visions so have in common 1) a continuing self, 2) a workload, 3)
liberation in service, and 4) a culture of reference. The identity and
integrity of filognosy is thus described in six aspects about the way
the empiricist D. Hume
(1711-1776) divided knowledge his way (see further the definition).
Thus it may, as stated in
the preface, be clear that this linear
presentation, as one would need for a book, carries in it's wake a
causal suggestion that one must relativize: in reality does one thing
not follow as closely another thing, for reasons of which the interface
at the index-page of the site knows a more
intuitive setup. A book and a site, reasoning from a beginning to an
end, thus constitutes, the way it is set up here on the basis of a
classical division - and thus being valid, a perfect illusion of
causality; an illusion not in the sense of being wrong, but an illusion
in the sense of being an exclusive line of reasoning. With the elements
given, there are more possible lines of arguing. So reasoned Auguste Comte (1798-1857), the father of
positivism precisely obverse to
the above substantively described filognosy that looks more like the
one of Søren Kierkegaard (1813-1855), which goes from
the esthetic to the ethical, to the religious. According Comte one
arrives from the theology of the person, lawfully through the
metaphysical stage of principles and the abstract of 'nature', at the
sober positive stage of the factual reality that on itself knows no
origin or purpose anymore. But the law of life and time has more causal
directions thus than the lines of Comte and Kierkegaard. As we already
indicated in the preface, does the end, in the cyclic of knowledge,
make for another begin again namely and are also the way back,
reasoning from the end to the beginning, the order found in an
intuitive arbitrariness, and the argument dissipating from a nucleus as
in a tree structure, equally valid forms of progressing in causal
reasoning. It was the greek philosopher Aristotle (384-322
v. Chr.) who concerning this
in his Physics discriminated four different types of causality:
to the substance, like in 'the bronze precedes the bronze
statue', to the determining form as in 'the form of a horse is
essential to all horses and the cause of it that we name them thus', to
the doer like in 'the artist constitutes the cause of his
creation' and the causality of the norm as in 'I stroll for my
health and that is the cause of my strolling'. In vedic logic we find
all these four forms of causality back in the form of the purusha
as the soul, the essence of the person of the creation, who in creation
precedes the ego as the substance thereof, in the avatâra,
the god who assumed the human form and thus
liberated, in kâla as the doer moving, creating
and conditioning everything and in dharma, the norm of
the necessity of the justice of God constituting the cause of the piety
and the pious person of knowledge. This way is also filognostically not
so easily said that (normative) just the religion or the dharma leads
to
the
science
of the spiritual person, since the other way around the purusha
or the (original) person of knowledge himself again is also the cause
of it according the illusion of the (substantive) causality that we
here adhere to in a linear sense. So also is the avatâra
there time and again as a tree of knowledge from which (formative),
like from the index-page of the site, all philosophy,
spirituality and religion with
Him as the stem and kernel sprouts, and is there also the impersonal of
the spirituality relating to the time factor kâla that,
as employed in the isolated articles of this site, constitutes the
(constructive) cause of the intuitive way of learning. A striking
example of, more symbolically in this case, reasoning backwards in a
literal sense to what for others would be the beginning, is formed by
the renaissance painter, inventor and scientist Leonardo da Vinci (1542-1519). He, as a
principle combining
the esthetic and the intellectual in an inventive way, habitually, just
like some eastern cultures, wrote and read his books, sentences and
words backwards, with which he on itself didn't cover the double sense
of the ambiguity of the four causal lines of reasoning of course.
Another example one can observe in movies which sometimes begin with
the denouement, with flash backs, and double plots or are cut in a mix
of their episodes as if it concerned, like in the movie Memento of Christopher Nolan from
2000, someone with
a deficient short-term memory who doesn't even know the order of time
anymore.

of
part
I:
the factual
The first of the three basic
dualities of filognosy concerns the rational method versus the
empirical science, to cope with the facts of life. One speaks of
methodical science: first one makes up one's mind and next one engages
in an empirically responsible fashion. In this department is the
agnostic element stronger than the gnostic one. With reason and the
experiential data do we herein gradually arrive
at the basic attitude and structure facilitating a more to the
principles directed spiritual life and a society more conscious of the
person. The agnostic basic attitude of being open and neutral to, or
else staying skeptic, as in modernity is defended by the biologists T. H. Huxley (1825
-1895), Charles Darwin (1809-1882) and the
philosopher Bertrand Russell (1872-1970), can, in her servitude being
just as commendable as the other visions, more or less be considered a
precondition to arrive at essential, filognostical, knowledge or
knowledge of the complete whole. It was also Plato (428-347 B.C.) who as one of the first
greek philosophers
by mouth of Socrates (470-399 B.C.) in allegiance
to this principle of science
in his discourse The Defense of Socrates managed to state that
he was only sure not to know. It was that honesty that delivered
Socrates as an early Christ of philosophy the cup of poison because he,
spoiling the young with it, thus demonstrated that the power of rule,
in spite of their pretenses, actually also did not know, and thus was
less wise than he who did know this.

section
1a:
the method.
The method thus, firstly,
consists of the charter as is described on the
previous page
in which we get acquainted with the doubt, the division, the complexity
and the completeness as principles of systematic proceeding.
Directly thereafter did we, on
the basis of our general thesis that we can manage perfectly departing
from the vedic concept of order, arrive at the division of this site,
of which these last paragraphs are a part and of which the elements
later on will be subjected to the method. With the method we need to
draw a plan of action in order to investigate as good as we can all
possible aspects to our problem - to have for us responsibly a
sustainable life with the ether. After having clarified this must we,
methodically seen, also introduce the dialectical. For the dialectical of the
game of questions and answers in order to enliven the knowledge is not
just a fundamental principle of the philosophy we know from Socrates
and Plato, but also a fundamentally vedic principle of questioning and
answering in relation to the spriritual authority. In the Bhagavad
Gîtâ (10: 32)
states Vyâsa by mouth of Lord Krishna that it, as for him, is all
about the identification of Him with the dialectics of all
argumentation. Simply said is as far as he is concerned the person
properly respected with a socratically responsible game of questions
and answers. Also the entire Bhâgavata
Purâna, the
Krishna-bible of the Hindus, also called the S'rîmâd
Bhâgavatam (as
from now
indicated with S.B.), consists of a frame story
presented dialectically. Less monologues, more conversation is the holy
message. To put this then in front in the presentation of a site that,
in answering to a general call for knowledge, inevitably time and again
tends to monologues and discourses, do we present thereto some
correspondence which, self-initiated or not as an email-exchange, was written in response to
the internet-presentation of this knowledge. The knowledge at this site
has also found it's existence in response to what through the internet
was presented. It is for that reason that sometimes acute themes as
aids and what could be seen in the cinema or in the political arena
prevailed over more academically demanded themes.
Thereafter follows a page
which to the point answers the most obvious questions
and
answers
concerning the order of time as a game of social interaction, a game
with which we are able to respect the person in his different positions
in life (see also the GameWiki for this). Next to that is
there on the site also a page with vacancies where different suggestions
are done for serving as a volunteer to be oneself also of service with
the filognosy.
As a direct result of those,
classically understood, dialectics must, to complement this first
section of the site, the social definition be offered. What's the use of all
knowledge brought
together here if we cannot find our fellow man with it in the first
place? Therefore is there to this subject a decided consideration on a
page separately dedicated to what we actually think of ourselves as
social beings.
The content of the Order of
Time in a cultural sense is in general terms summarized at this and the
other introductions to the different sections. All are given a
synopsis at a page with six dialogues in which to the content of
the different
sections the most important issues to remember are regurgitated. For a
quick orientation to the content-matter one can best begin with this 'level
one'
by reading these pieces
first and just then study the separate articles. The introductions
naturally have a more general character and offer as a preparation for
the specific studies per chapter a broader reference concerning the
present-day and historical societal views and people. The site itself
was more or less intuitively at the same time from the different
sections diffusely build up - as it were chiseled out - and can so thus
one step at a time be read, just like one does when one gently sits
down into a hot tub.
