A World with the Shaman
Now a world that has room for the “shaman” or whatever that would be called in the modern era… The memes you see going around would be actively engaged and refined. Organized practices of social story telling would incorporate the shifts in social perception and mood that show up in this material, underscoring the unity…

Source of Greatest Strength
Another example of the truths I am trying to get at… Even the most die hard materialists tend to acknowledge an experience of a person with “power”, whether that’s interpreted as just them simply being unusually charismatic or strangely disturbing or something else all together. Everyone can relate to this idea, no? The person seems…

Schools of Atomism
Atomism was metaphysics before it was ever incorporated into what we call science now. It grew out of lines of thinking about the ultimate substance of reality, and took many forms in both western and eastern culture. There were two basic schools of atomism. One group being those that favoured a materialist and deterministic world…

Atomic Structure is the Emergent Quality
Our current atomic theory is really a neo-atomism. We don’t actually interact directly with any little particles, and they provide no solid empirical evidence that they even exist. Why scientists continue to use an atomist model is it explains the behaviour of matter and energy, as they are able to observe it enough that they…

Shaped by Countless Universes
Shall we get weirder now? Let’s look at things from a quantum level. Everything in existence exists only as a tendency, a probability for that particular person, place, or thing to exist. Now what makes something come into existence is enough overlap between those tendencies, like two different ripple patterns crashing into each other, no…

Three Dimensional Beings
Now we get to three dimensional beings, but first a rewind… In two dimensional space the circles would be their mystics. They would be the ones able to understand unity from their personal perspective. A circle would be the two dimensional spaces Buddha. Now in the third dimension, we can begin to understand the philosophy of…

Fourth Dimensional Beings
Shall I go into fourth dimensional beings? They don’t think in terms of cause and effect as we do. They don’t experience existence in that way. They move through a space by a chain of relationships. Space being structured by entropy more than mass. While we think of entropy as the break down and progressive…

Watchers & Walkers
I don’t pretend to understand most of this, but dimensionality is feeling more and more like an “energetic” phenomenon rather than a spatial one. The fourth dimension being the state of energy we call entropy, yes. To fourth dimensional beings our world is a coffee table in their living room. They can stand where they…

Logitechs
About the akashic record or bardo… You have what some Buddhists refer to as the pure land. It has other names, the summer land, nirvana, Valhalla. It’s all and none of these. The watchers give the fifth dimensional being something to be. The fifth dimensional beings collapse of probability in actual events creates a field.…

Higher Dimensions
Shall I leave it at the fifth dimension for now? You could have another class on the higher dimensions? Indeed, there are five more after that. I left off at the fifth dimensional beings. The fourth dimensional beings could be compared to Buddhas. Fifth dimensional beings would be Brahma. Brahman to our personal Atman. Time…

Fifth Dimensional Being
The fifth dimensional being, that corresponds to you as you know yourself to be here, would be difficult to recognize as having anything in common with you. This being embodies not only your personal thread of existence but also all possible alternate threads. All the things you are and all the things you might have…
-
Primes
Shall we move beyond the fifth? In the dimension sixth sphere, you have what we would perceive to be raw sentience having none of the distinctions we use to make intelligible sense of our world. Pure principle, pure expression. Where fifth dimensional beings would be the logos or word. Sixth dimensional beings would be the…
-
Space Between Dimensional Pockets
In the space between these dimensional pockets, you have the seventh dimension. It’s a medium that is superficially apparent in the fifth, and surrounds the sixth like an atmosphere. Just as we can look up and see the night sky but exist in a relatively closed environment, an ecosystem, outer space doesn’t directly affect us…
-
Apocalypse Beast
What do you call a seventh dimensional being? A seventh dimensional being is an apocalypse beast. To use human symbolism, figures like Ymir, Tiamat, Apophys, Uroboros, Nyx would have been such a being. Ah, the multiple heads makes sense. The universes are cells of the seventh, dying off and being created, which is what brane…

Eighth and Ninth Dimension
We are at the last two dimensions next. There are only nine? Yes, because the tenth in a singularity. An implosive well of being, also known as the well of souls. Back to a dot so the circle completes? Yes. In the eighth dimension, as they say, the lion lays down with the lamb. No…

A Difference That Makes a Difference
What is information? Today’s topic being information theory. Something that changes? Data that conveys a message. Data, knowledge, intelligence (like a spy would say). Information has been defined by one person as a difference that makes a difference. Something that makes one thing stand out from another. We live in a world of information, really.…

Body as Matter
To continue with the body as matter model… You don’t have a single channel of information, you have many. But even so, even with them all operating at the same time and in the same identifiable medium, would that explain human behaviour? Sound vibrating some of the systems, light triggering photo-response in others, heat triggering…

Channels of Communication
Biological beings all have one thing in common. Communication. Plants through chemical signals, animals through gestural signals, humans through both. They say that human language is an adaption of forms of animal communication. Could we learn to communicate outside of that? I will give an example. I can communicate three different things. They won’t be…
Category: Metaphysics of Science
Metaphysics is the branch of philosophy that focuses specifically on the concepts we use to understand reality itself, rather than what might be the best way to do something. Science was originally classified as a philosophy, in my opinion it still is, but many object to the notion that science is still a philosophy. They point at what they feel is proof that science possesses substance that philosophy doesn’t.
There is a schism between science and metaphysics that I believe would be well served by being bridged rather than having the bridge burned. Would you say that working toward a better and clearer metaphysics is without merit in today’s world?
