    By ‘dilating’ and ‘expanding’ the scope of our attention we not only discover that ‘form is emptiness’ (the donut has a hole), but also that ’emptiness is form’ (objects precipitate out of the larger ‘space’) – to use Buddhist terminology. The emptiness that we arrive at by narrowing our focus on the innermost is identical…

  • CNO and the Law of Octaves

    “String theory—the hot topic in physics for the past 20 years—is a dead-end, says Smolin, one of the founders of Canada’s Perimeter Institute of Theoretical Physics and himself a lapsed string theorist. In fact, he (and others) argue convincingly, string theory isn’t even a fully formed theory—it’s just a “conjecture.”Publisher’s Weekly As we keep going…

  • THEORETICAL MATHEMATICS

    Before I was to ask the question below I had gone through the links given by Alejandro RIvero and in and thinking of the work I had been doing to understand this relation between mathematics and the physics world. Of course as you know I am deeply involved in building a “foundational perspective” in a…

  • Comprehending New Physics?

    Scientists May Soon Have Evidence for Exotic Predictions of String Theory issued by Northeaster University “String theory and other possibilities can distort the relative numbers of ‘down’ and ‘up’ neutrinos,” said Jonathan Feng, associate professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at UC Irvine. “For example, extra dimensions may cause neutrinos to create microscopic…

    “The worst disease afflicting human kind is hardening of the categories.” – Artist Bob Miller. Well I having been watching the topics ofCategorically Not site created. I see such fine visitations by those who have ventured into the science, asking for responsibility of mind in science, be given to society on a platform, as a…

  • Describing the Intuitive Process?

    True creativity often starts where language ends–Arthur Koestler If such a image is recognized in how we attain such clarity, then would such a map be insignificant? What was conducive to the event happening? Fishing the deep waters of our subconcious purposely or with no cause other then to resolve a problem? As subjective as…

  • Arthur Koestler and Creativity

    True creativity often starts where language ends. Arthur Koestler For those who engaged the issue of intuition, can we say that this is very close to what creativity is ,and the quote suplied above, is in essence. Is the mind, having come to a point on the Aristotlean arch, as, having fully understood, that work…

  • EQ and Intuition

    A 180 degree stance on how “consciousness,” body and emotion, might be directed by mind? So, you might say “mind is emphemeral in quality” in some regards? All heart you say! “Heart” is the balance between? Involution and evolution Yet, there is a interplay between, “the body home” and “the abstractual mind” further out, while,…

  • Intuitively Balanced: Induction and Deduction

    A VIEW OF MATHEMATICS Alain CONNES Most mathematicians adopt a pragmatic attitude and see themselves as the explorers of this mathematical world” whose existence they don’t have any wish to question, and whose structure they uncover by a mixture of intuition, not so foreign from poetical desire”, and of a great deal of rationality requiring…

  • Coleman-De Luccia instanton

    IN what way could some consistent measure be thought of, that such conditions while recognized in the false vacuum, and, with conditions of high energy considerations, be realized into useful information surrounding this move to the true vacuum? It would have to be geometrically explained. Planck epoch in itself, makes this very hard to do,…

    In regards to #72, as a layman, I continue to wonder.
