Introduction (2009): Despite several thousand years of failure to correctly understand physical
reality (hence the current postmodern view that this is impossible) it is actually very simple to work out how matter exists and moves about in
Space.
The rules of Science
(Occam's Razor / Simplicity) and Metaphysics (Dynamic Unity of Reality) require that reality be described from only one substance existing, as Leibniz wrote; 'Reality cannot be found except in One single source, because
of the interconnection of all things with one another'.
When we deduce
this most Simple Science Theory of Reality we find that there is only one possible solution: Space must be the substance
which exists and matter is formed from waves in Space. The electron is
a spherical standing wave in Space. See Wave Diagrams
i.e. While there are many minds and material things, they all exist in
one common Space (just look around you and think about it). We can then
show that the Wave Structure of Matter is the correct solution as it deduces
the fundamentals of Physics & Philosophy perfectly
(there are no opinions).
I realise that there are a lot of 'crackpot' theories about truth and reality
on the internet, but this solution is the most simple one and it is obvious
once known (though it takes time for our minds to adjust to new knowledge).
In hindsight the error was obvious - to try and describe an interconnected
reality from the foundation of many discrete and separate things, matter 'particles',
which then required forces / fields to connect them in space and time.
This was always just a mathematical solution which never explained how matter was connected across the universe.
For those who are religious
/ spiritual, I think Albert Einstein expresses the enlightened view of God. He writes 'I believe in Spinoza's God who reveals himself in the orderly harmony of what
exists, not in a God who concerns himself with the fates and actions of
human beings.' This harmony arises from a Wave Structure of Matter in Space (we are all interconnected
in this space that we all commonly experience). This unity of reality (God,
Brahman, Tao, Spirit, Energy, Light, Vibration) is central to all major
world religions, thus their common moral foundation of 'Do unto others as to thyself' as the other is part of the self.
In a time of universal deceit
- telling the truth is a revolutionary act. (George Orwell)
You must be the change you wish to see in the world. (Mohandas Gandhi)
All that is necessary for evil to succeed is for good men to do nothing.

Chi Kung / Qi Gong Health Benefits of Ancient Chinese
Moving Meditation, Energy Flow (Qi), Uses & Practice in China, History, Videos
Qigong - Qi (Flow of Energy, Life Force)
'Qigong (ch'i kung pronounced 'chee gung') is the ancient art
of health maintenance and healing that originated several thousand years
ago in China. The qi in qigong means air in Chinese, and also life force,
dynamic energy, cosmic breath. Gong means work or skill applied to a discipline,
so qigong means breath / energy work.
A person practices Qigong by a combination of exercises including
meditation, visualization, circulating and working with qi, breathing and
movement. A skilled practitioner of Qigong is able to project Qi to improve
the health of another person. The ultimate goal of Qigong is to improve
the balance of the functions of the body. It is a physical exercise, meditation
and spiritual path.'

Health Benefits
The benefits of Qi Gong are obvious in those who practice it correctly
and regularly. These exuberant individuals sleep more soundly; achieve
better physical performance and mental harmony of the true health in the
unity of mind-body-spirit. They become simply happier in life - regardless
the circumstances.
Chi Kung: Moving Meditation
'The Chinese believe to "strain
is not to gain." They also believe that one must have a strong mind/body connection to feel "inside the body" and recognize when energy is "out of balance." The practice of this "moving meditation" will enhance the mind/body connection and allow one to have more of a connection
with the internal body.
Qigong and Tai Chi are exercises as well as meditations. You will
move every muscle, joint, bone, and organ of the body but in a slow and
methodical way. Breathing techniques will enhance your practice. The exercises
specifically for the joints will help you maintain your flexibility and
regain some of the lost flexibility. This is a very gentle program and
therefore is perfect for rehabilitation.
This moving meditation will help you to develop focus and concentration
but also to build the feeling of peace and harmony. For all of you who
are suffer from worry, or perfectionism, Type A personality, and stress
illnesses, this is the practice for you!'

Use & Practice in China
'Attitudes toward the scientific basis for qigong vary markedly.
Most Western medical practitioners and many practitioners of traditional
Chinese medicine, as well as the Chinese government, view qigong as a set
of breathing and movement exercises, with possible benefits to health through
stress reduction and exercise. Others see qigong in more metaphysical terms,
claiming that qi can be circulated through channels called meridians.
Today millions of people in China and around the world regularly
practice qigong as a health maintenance exercise. Qigong and related disciplines
are still associated with the martial arts and meditation routines practiced
by Taoist and Buddhist monks, professional martial artists, and their students.
Once more closely guarded, in the modern era such practices have become
widely available to the general public both in China and around the world.
Medical qigong treatment has been officially recognized as a standard medical
technique in Chinese hospitals since 1989. It has been included in the
curriculum of major universities in China. After years of debate, the Chinese
government decided to officially manage qigong through government regulation
in 1996 and has also listed qigong as part of their National Health Plan.'
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qigong
Qigong Database of Research
'Beginning about 1980, extensive clinical and experimental research
on medical applications of Qigong was carried out by scientists in China.
Most of these studies were reported only at international conferences,
and only a few were published because suitable scientific journals are
not available in China.
The Qigong and Energy Medicine Database™ is a compilation of references
to most of these studies as well as to reports in scientific journals,
books and Medline. This Database provides the only record in English of
the vast amount of research on Qigong from China as well from other countries.
These reports can be used as a guide for improving health and for deciding
what further research may be required to confirm promising applications
of Qigong.
While few research studies on Qigong conform to strict scientific
protocol, the collection of research is too large and significant to be
ignored. Now you can search over 4,000 references in English to study clinical
and experimental research on Qigong from the original sources.'
To blow out and breathe in slowly,
to inhale and exhale, to puff out the old breaths and draw in the new,
practicing bear-hanging and bird-stretching, longevity is the only concern.
Guiding and pulling, cultivating and nourishing the body favored by those
who wish to live long. (Zhuangzi, Guo, 535)
Unify your attention. Rather than
listen with the ear, listen with the heart. Rather than listen with the
heart, listen with the qi. Listening stops at the ear, the heart stills
at following the circumstances. Qi is void, thus it is all encompassing.
Only the Way amasses the void, so the void is the fasting of the heart.
(Guo, 173)
Extend farthest towards the void,
hold steadiest to the tranquility. The ten thousand things all rise together,
and I reflect their return. (Gao, 298)
"You must
be the change you wish to see in the world."
(Mohandas
Gandhi)
"When
forced to summarize the general theory of relativity in one sentence:
Time and space and gravitation have no separate existence from matter.
... Physical objects are not in space, but these objects are spatially extended. In this way the concept 'empty space' loses its meaning. ... The particle can
only appear as a limited region in space in which the field strength
or the energy density are particularly high. ...
The free, unhampered exchange of ideas and
scientific conclusions is necessary for the sound development of science,
as it is in all spheres of cultural life. ... We must not conceal from ourselves that no improvement in the present depressing
situation is possible without a severe struggle; for the handful of those
who are really determined to do something is minute in comparison with
the mass of the lukewarm and the misguided. ... Humanity is going to need a substantially new
way of thinking if it is to survive!" (Albert Einstein)
This is the profound new way of thinking that Einstein
realised, that we exist as spatially extended structures of the universe - the discrete
and separate body an illusion. This simply confirms the intuitions of
the ancient philosophers and mystics.

Given the current censorship in physics / philosophy of science journals (based on the standard model of particle physics / big bang cosmology) the internet is the best hope for getting new knowledge known to the world. But that depends on you, the people who care about science and society, realise the importance of truth and reality.
