Important Note (September, 2012) - I have submitted an essay to a competition on the foundations of physical reality. It explains how matter and fields are just two different ways that space vibrates. It is very simple and obvious once understood, has profound consequences for humanity, our sense of self in the universe knowing that we vibrate with everything around us. Please read it, rate it, and I will reply to all comments. Thanks, Geoff haselhurst (11th Sept. 2012)
I realise that there are a lot of 'crackpot' theories about truth and reality
on the internet, but it is easy to show that the Wave Structure of Matter
is the correct solution as it deduces the laws
of Nature (the fundamentals of Physics & Philosophy)
perfectly (there are no opinions). While the Wave Structure of Matter is obvious
once known, to begin it will seem strange simply because it takes time
for our minds to adjust to new knowledge.
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.

Physical Exercise & Fitness Evolution & Importance
of Every Day Activity for Physical & Mental Health. Fun Tips, Body / Mind, Modern Life
Introduction
Ideas to consider:
We evolved as hunter gatherers - walking and physical exercise
would be an integral part of everyday life. In many western countries,
we now live more sedentary lives. Driving to work, sitting at a desk or
computer, watching tv at night etc. This lack of daily physical exercise
must contribute to many malaises of modern society - obesity, depression,
preventable disease and health problems.
Make exercise worthwhile and fun - e.g. grow your own vegetable
garden, play sport with your kids, go fishing and catch dinner.
Importance of Sport - stirs up all sorts of tribal behaviour,
competition and instincts. Self esteem, feel good factor. Addicted to good
things - yoga, surfing!
Rather than start a fad diet or taking up a new sport, make healthy
living a lifestyle! Avoid extremes, path of every day moderation.
Benefits of exercise outside rather than gym - sunshine, fresh
air!
Exercise & Evolution
'As a species human work (exercise) capabilities and limitations
are a result of our species specific anatomical and physiological characteristics,
which are in turn defined by our genetic constitution. Similar to all other
organisms, the human genome was shaped by environmental selective pressures
over eons of evolutionary experience.
..Examination of both the hominid fossil record and structural
and functional differences between modern humans and primates provides
insight into the evolutionary changes which occurred in human anatomy and
physiology which directly influenced the exercise capabilities of contemporary
men and women.
Further, by studying modern hunter gatherer societies, it is possible
to not only develop models of optimal exercise patterns for fitness, but
to evaluate how the discordance between the activity patterns of modern
sedentary societies and hunter gatherer societies is implicated in a wide
variety of chronic degenerative diseases which plague contemporary humans.'
'We all know regular exercise is a must for good health. The National
Institute of Medicine recommends at least 30 minutes to an hour of daily
exercise, including swimming, brisk walking, and bicycling.
These 10 tips can help you work in a workout almost anytime and anyplace,
either for free or dirt cheap, so the whole world is your health club.
1.
Don't neglect that old standby, walking.
2. Housework counts!
3. Climb stairs.
4. Find some hills near home or work, and power up them.
5. Get out of the house, and go bowling! go to the park etc.
6. Stretch out.
7. If you're the outdoorsy type, go for a bike ride.
8. Get in the garden, and weed, weed, weed.
9. Pick up a jump rope or a slideboard.
10. Be a pal (volunteer to help a friend move house etc.)'

ABC of Sports Medicine: Benefits of exercise in health and disease
'The claim that individual participation in adequate amounts of
regular physical activity can improve health and prevent disease is fully
justified. The scientific evidence is based on many studies - epidemiological,
clinical, and physiological. A working party of the Royal College of Physicians,
convened in 1989, examined this evidence, recognised its importance, and
based a series of recommendations on it.
Coronary heart disease and stroke are identified as key priorities
in the white paper, Health of the Nation. In these two conditions individual
risk is dramatically reduced by a change in lifestyle and an increase in
physical activity. Other important benefits fall into four categories:
enhancing function, maintaining reserve capacities, preventing disease,
and ameliorating the effects of age and chronic disease.'

Tai Chi Chuan: Gentle, Beneficial Exercise
Tai chi chuan (TCC) is a Chinese conditioning exercise and is
well known for its slow and graceful movements. Recent investigations have
found that TCC is beneficial to cardiorespiratory function, strength, balance,
flexibility, microcirculation and psychological profile. The long-term
practice of TCC can attenuate the age decline in physical function, and
consequently it is a suitable exercise for the middle-aged and elderly
individuals. TCC can be prescribed as an alternative exercise programme
for selected patients with cardiovascular, orthopaedic, or neurological
diseases, and can reduce the risk of falls in elderly individuals. The
exercise intensity of TCC depends on training style, posture and duration.
Participants can choose to perform a complete set of TCC or selected movements
according to their needs.
"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.
