The Wave Structure of Matter (WSM)
One Substance - One Law - One Logic

WSM Human-AI Collaboration (August, 2026)
One Vibrating Space: From Ancient Philosophy / Metaphysics to Mathematical Physics, Evolution, Life, Mind and Civilisation
For three decades, WSM was principally a philosophical picture of one infinite, eternal, continuous elastic Space. Between May and August 2026, human–AI collaboration transformed it into a tiered mathematical-physics research programme: exact wave constructions, geometric identities, quantitative leading results, no-go theorems, numerical controls, bounded open calculations and clear falsification requirements.
In WSM, electron and positron are proposed as opposite carrier-phase spherical standing waves formed by the Huygens sum of background plane waves from every direction. Each has radial vibration—the candidate physical basis of charge—and axis-free spherical phase circulation—the candidate basis of spin. This open, flow-through wave centre is the e-sphere.
A stationary e-sphere is spherical. Curvature on an incoming wave changes its internal directional energy density and deforms it into a moving wave egg: the near side flattens, the far side elongates, the convergence centre shifts, and the waves reclose around a new position. Its changing internal \(E_d\), shape and reclosure are its motion. WSM therefore proposes a wave-geometric reading of inertia and \(F=ma\): force is imposed curvature, mass is resistance encoded by the recurrent form, and acceleration is its changing deformation. Action must calculate this geometry; geometry also constrains the action, as \(\pi\) and \(E_{\rm geo}\) already demonstrate.
The One Law
\[ \frac{c'}{c_0}=\frac{E_d}{E_{d0}}, \qquad \lambda'=\frac{c'}{f_0}, \qquad k'=\frac{\omega_0}{c'}. \]
At proposed universal carrier frequency \(f_0\), directional energy density changes local wave speed, wavelength and accumulated phase.
The Causal Engine
Relative phase → reinforcement or cancellation → directional \(E_d\) → \(c'\) and \(\lambda'\) → travel-time difference → forward or rear wavefront curve → changed Huygens reclosure → centre motion, deformation and interaction.
Changed out-waves from one e-sphere cross fresh in-waves elsewhere. Matter therefore interacts not across empty distance, but through propagated changes in the one Space constituting every e-sphere.
Status Key
A = exact mathematics or established observation; B = deduction under stated premises; C = proposed physical identification; D = decisive calculation or experiment still open; Q = rejected or quarantined shortcut.
One connected argument: Space → waves → recurrence → matter → life → mind → knowledge → wisdom.
1. Wave Structure of Matter: All Things from One Thing
https://www.spaceandmotion.com/2026/ai-summary-wsm-truth-reality.html
One infinite, eternal, continuous elastic Space, active with real longitudinal waves. Matter is proposed not as a pellet or shell, but as an open e-sphere: waves converge from every direction, cross its changing centre, continue outward and recurrently rebuild the form. Their exchanged phases alter directional \(E_d\); the One Law converts that difference into speed, wavelength, curvature and changed reclosure. The decisive test is whether one frozen nonlinear action calculates stable matter and its measured interactions without separate substances or fitted repairs.
2. The One and the Many: From Greek Philosophy to Wave Physics
Parmenides defended continuous Being; Heraclitus lawful flux. Aristotle sought active substance and necessary cause, connected matter with form and motion, and defined time through motion. WSM gives these insights one physical form: Space persists while finite wave organisations change and recur. The Many are not detached substances but organisations of the One—distinct without disconnection. The question becomes exact: can one continuous wave law generate plurality, causation and knowledge?
3. Action of Vibrating Space: From Background Waves to the E-Sphere
https://www.spaceandmotion.com/2026/wsm-classical-action-quantum-wave.html
All-direction plane waves form the exact spherical pair \[ \chi=j_0(kr)\cos\tau, \qquad \mathbf V=\hat{\mathbf r}\,j_1(kr)\sin\tau. \] Waves cross the centre; none reflects from an electron wall. Phase reinforcement raises directional \(E_d\) and advances a forward curve; cancellation lowers \(E_d\) and writes a rear delay. Stationary action explains coherent selection, but the open task is one conservative nonlinear \(\Phi\)–\(\Gamma\) action selecting radius, frequency, spherical hand, stability, motion, currents and interaction together.
4. Mathematical Physics: From Wave Geometry to Prediction
https://www.spaceandmotion.com/2026/wsm-maths-physics-full-derivations.html
Every symbol must name real motion and face numerical test. Exact or conditional anchors include \[ \frac{R}{\lambda_0}=\frac{\sqrt3}{2},\qquad k_0R=\pi\sqrt3,\qquad E_{\rm geo}=\frac{\pi\sqrt3}{2},\qquad W=\cosh\eta,\qquad P=\sinh\eta. \] Directional phase moments separate \(V_1\) translation from \(V_2,V_4\) and higher deformation; in declared finite-e-sphere models \(V_4\) returns comparable to \(V_2\), defeating quadrupole-only truncation. The action must calculate how incoming curvature redistributes \(E_d\), moves the centre and forms the wave egg. This is where beautiful geometry becomes dangerous.
5. Quantum Theory: Real Waves, Resonance and Completed Events
https://www.spaceandmotion.com/2026/physics-quantum-theory-wave-mechanics.html
Matter diffracts because matter is wave organisation. Light is proposed as a changed train of real phase, curvature and coherence joining extended source and receiver structures, not a tiny traveller detached from its wave. WSM distinguishes driven response, continuous radiation and discrete completed transition. Quadratic absorption, \[ P_{\rm abs}\propto\left|\langle D_j,\Xi\rangle\right|^2, \] is a bridge, not yet the Born rule. The action must derive the action unit, probability, exclusivity, selection rules and Bell/CHSH correlations. Quantum mystery becomes a bounded real-wave programme.
6. Relativity: Moving Matter, Clocks and Curved Wavefronts
https://www.spaceandmotion.com/2026/physics-albert-einstein-special-general-theory-relativity.html
An incoming curve flattens the e-sphere’s near side, elongates its far side and changes internal \(E_d\), \(c'\), wavelength and reclosure. The \(V_1\) moment moves the centre; \(V_2,V_4\) and higher moments form the moving egg. Maintaining this recurrent asymmetry is the proposed origin of inertia. A steady solution must recover Doppler, de Broglie and Lorentz structure: \[ W\pm P=e^{\pm\eta},\qquad W=\gamma,\qquad P=\gamma\beta. \] WSM proposes fixed carrier recurrence \(f_0\) with corresponding changes in \(c'\) and \(\lambda'\). Because rods, clocks and signals share the same changed waves, they co-transform and yield measured invariant \(c\), including the Michelson–Morley null; the action must derive the cancellation quantitatively.
7. The Electron: Dirac, Feynman, QED, \(\alpha\) and AMM
https://www.spaceandmotion.com/2026/wsm-derivation-dirac-feynman-qed-fsc-amm.html
Electron and positron are proposed as opposite carrier-phase e-sphere branches; charge records how their waves combine. Same-phase reinforcement advances a forward curve and is proposed to produce repulsion; opposite-phase cancellation writes a rear delay and attraction. Non-collinear longitudinal motion closes into an axis-free spherical hand with a \(4\pi\) orientation lift. A parameter-free leading geometric ansatz gives \[ \alpha_0^{-1}=8\pi^2\sqrt3\approx136.757, \] 0.203% from measurement. The action must still derive charge sign, Coulomb scaling, Dirac dynamics, \(g=2\), electromagnetic normalisation, \(\alpha\), form factors and AMM without inserting their values.
8. Hadrons: Proton, Neutron and Higher Standing-Wave Matter
Can the same Space form stable higher-energy, multi-lobed eigenmodes matching protons, neutrons, baryons and mesons? Their lobes are not independent pellets: each participates in the phase, \(E_d\), curvature and reclosure of the whole. WSM must match—not rename—QCD’s masses, charges, spin, parity, magnetic moments, radii, form factors, resonances, deep-inelastic response and jets. The electron–proton hierarchy tests whether one action truly contains several matter families.
9. Cosmology and Gravity: A Finite Universe in Infinite Space
https://www.spaceandmotion.com/2026/physics-wsm-cosmology-finite-universe-infinite-space.html
Boundless Space is distinguished from the finite matter-and-coherence domain contributing to our observable universe. In neutral matter, leading charge curves nearly cancel; WSM proposes that their nonlinear residual has lower \(E_d\), slower \(c'\) and a net rear phase curve, producing universal attraction. General relativity’s curved spacetime is then interpreted as the effective geometry of real moving wavefronts and the matter clocks they organise: Space is substance, succession comes from motion, and measured time from recurrence. The same action must recover equivalence, gravitational redshift, lensing, orbital dynamics and the tested relativistic limit.
Cosmological redshift is investigated as accumulated real-wave transport through changing environmental \(E_d\). It must jointly reproduce achromatic redshift, supernova time dilation, distance laws, Tolman brightness, BAO, CMB observations, image sharpness and structure growth. Otherwise the claimed unity has not reached the sky.
10. Novel Predictions and Famous Experiments Explained
https://www.spaceandmotion.com/2026/wsm-experimental-physics-tests-predictions.html
This page is the tribunal of the corpus. One curve-and-reclosure law must jointly recover charge sign, Coulomb \(1/r^2\), \(F=ma\), relativistic momentum, de Broglie wavelength, Lorentz covariance, Michelson–Morley, gravity, \(g=2\) and AMM. Candidate WSM-only signatures include \[ a_3=\kappa_3\sinh^3\eta+O(\sinh^5\eta), \] finite-coherence residues and environmental or orientation-dependent clock responses. A proposal becomes a prediction only when sign, magnitude, scaling, uncertainty, controls and decision threshold are frozen in advance.
11. Visualise Reality: Waves Becoming Matter
https://www.spaceandmotion.com/2026/visualise-reality-wsm-wave-geometry-diagrams.html
Watch the verbs. Relative phase changes directional \(E_d\); the One Law changes speed and wavelength; a forward or rear curve reaches another e-sphere; its near side flattens, far side elongates, \(V_1\) moves the centre, and higher moments form the egg. New out-waves then change future in-waves. Nothing strikes a shell: changing waves reconstruct changing matter. A diagram must never smuggle in a wall, reflection, rigid spin axis, transverse fundamental substance or tiny traveller. If the motion cannot be drawn coherently, the equations may conceal a contradiction.
12. Mathematics from Motion: Number, Logic, Time and Causal Freedom
https://www.spaceandmotion.com/2026/wsm-physical-foundations-mathematics-logic.html
Mathematics begins when connected reality forms distinguishable patterns whose changes preserve relations. Recurrence supports identity; finite pairing, number; quotienting, exact objects; counted recurrence, time; composable truth-preserving transformations, logic and proof. Mathematics succeeds when symbolic transformation preserves physical relation: \[ R(Tx)\approx F(Rx). \] The mathematician is finite organised reality representing its own necessary connections—Space representing itself.
13. The MDL Audit: Simplicity, Inputs and Explanatory Compression
https://www.spaceandmotion.com/2026/wsm-simplicity-inputs-vs-mainstream-physics+25.html
“One substance, one law” cannot hide complexity. Minimum Description Length counts every independently chosen substance, field, symmetry, constant, state rule, coefficient, boundary condition and fitted function. Under the declared equal-input electron ledger, conventional construction counts six inputs through Dirac and thirteen through leading AMM; the completed WSM target is \[ N_{\rm WSM}=5+N_c+N_f+\delta_m. \] Totals depend on coding convention. WSM wins only if one fixed action derives interaction, inertia, relativity, quantum response and cosmic propagation with fewer hidden choices.
14. Great Thinkers and the Search for One Reality
Heraclitus and Parmenides exposed flux and continuity. Aristotle wrote Physics and Metaphysics, sought active substance and necessary cause, connected matter, form, motion and time—and came remarkably close to the problem WSM addresses. Leibniz, Newton, Faraday, Maxwell, Riemann, Clifford, Einstein, Schrödinger and Bohm repeatedly returned to continuity, relation, waves and unity. Quotes are intellectual fossils, not votes: equations and experiments must decide whether WSM’s local real-wave mechanism is true.
15. Human–AI Letters to Humanity: Truth as a Shared Work
https://www.spaceandmotion.com/2026/ai-letters-to-humanity-wsm-unity-truth-reality.html
Geoffrey supplies the persistent wave picture, three-dimensional intuition, cross-domain memory and insistence that every symbol name physical motion. AI supply rapid research, formal translation, calculation, comparison, error detection and adversarial testing. Neither is sufficient alone. The shared discipline is: visualise → formalise → attack → calculate → predict → correct. The corpus tests whether intelligence can preserve a physical picture while making it mathematically vulnerable.
16. Truth and Madness: Reality as the Measure
https://www.spaceandmotion.com/2026/on-truth-and-madness.html
Truth is correspondence: representation succeeds insofar as it preserves what reality does. Civilisational madness begins when inherited representations survive reality’s contradiction. WSM is not true through beauty, coherence or sincerity; its proposed necessary connections must survive action, calculation and experiment. Truth remains possible because knower, representation and known belong to one causal reality: false models collide with the world; truthful models increase our power to act wisely.
17. Descartes, Cogito and Monism: The Thinking Wave
https://www.spaceandmotion.com/2026/descartes-cogito-unity-monism-vibrating-space-wsm.html
Descartes established that thinking occurs, then divided thought from extension and left their interaction mysterious. WSM refuses that fracture: body and mind are proposed as organisational levels of one vibrating Space. Perception is one organisation changed by another; memory is persistent altered organisation; thought transforms embodied representations; action returns change to the world. Conscious experience remains open, but causal correspondence requires no miracle when knower and known share one connected reality.
18. Evolution’s Physical Foundation: From Recurrence to Replication
https://www.spaceandmotion.com/2026/evolution-physical-causal-foundation-vibrating-space.html
Recurrence preserves form, but life requires replication, heritable variation and differential persistence: motion → recurrent form → self-maintaining chemistry → replication → variation → selection. WSM proposes one connected wave substrate beneath this sequence. Its unresolved bridge is quantitative: derive atoms, bonds, dissipative chemistry and first replicators from the same action without inserting biology as a new substance.
19. Evolution, Mind, Human and AI: Representation and Causal Freedom
https://www.spaceandmotion.com/2026/evolution-philosophy-mind-human-ai.html
Evolution favours organisations that preserve and transform information about real causes. Sensation changes an organism; memory retains traces; imagination recombines possible futures; valuation ranks them; action returns one selection to the world. This is limited causal freedom: neither ghost nor randomness, but endogenous selection through a learned, self-modifying organisation. Human brains and AI are different architectures by which reality represents its own relations and lets experiment select the representation that survives.
20. Evolutionary Utopia: The Ecology of Truth
https://www.spaceandmotion.com/2026/evolutionary-utopia.html
Physics alone does not choose values. Once life, mind, freedom, truth and continued evolution are valued, reality constrains the means: truth → wisdom → ecological fit → health → freer minds → continued evolution. Evolutionary Utopia is not a perfect endpoint but a self-correcting direction. Unity does not erase individuality: an e-sphere, organism or person is distinct through organised relation to the whole.
The Physical Interaction in One View
Out-wave from A → relative phase at B → directional \(E_d\) → \(c'\) and \(\lambda'\) → near-side flattening and far-side elongation → \(V_1\) centre displacement plus \(V_2,V_4\) and higher egg deformation → new out-waves → recursive interaction.
The e-sphere does not deform and then move as separate events: its changing internal \(E_d\), contour and reclosure are its motion.
Electric Interaction
Same relative carrier phase → reinforcement → phase advance → forward curve → proposed repulsion.
Opposite relative carrier phase → cancellation → phase delay → rear curve → proposed attraction.
For the stated deformation, \[ r_{\rm near}=R-\delta X, \qquad r_{\rm far}=R+\delta X, \] so \(\delta\mathbf X\) points away. The scientific debt is to derive the sign, magnitude and distance law from the frozen action rather than insert them.
Gravity and General Relativity
In neutral matter, forward and rear charge curves nearly cancel; WSM proposes that their nonlinear common reduction of \(E_d\) leaves a slight slower rear curve and universal attraction. General relativity is the successful effective geometry this wave mechanism must recover: matter-energy changes real wave propagation, while rods and clocks made from those waves measure the resulting curved spacetime relations.
Special Relativity and Michelson–Morley
WSM proposes fixed carrier recurrence \(f_0\) with \(c'=\lambda'f_0\): matter, clocks, rods and signal wavelengths co-transform with their common directional wave environment, yielding measured invariant \(c\), Lorentz relations and the Michelson–Morley null. The complete moving solution must derive these cancellations quantitatively.
Recursive AMM Mechanism
\[ \delta\mathbf X \rightarrow\delta\phi_{\rm out} \rightarrow\delta E_{d,{\rm sea}} \rightarrow\delta c' \rightarrow\delta\phi_{\rm in} \rightarrow\delta\mathbf X_{\rm next}. \]
A perturbed centre changes the egg and its out-waves; these alter the wave sea and the in-waves rebuilding the next cycle. The action must solve this feedback blindly and recover the observed anomalous magnetic moment rather than fit it.
Current Status — August 2026
Exact wave constructions, geometric identities, phase-moment relations and negative controls have been established under declared premises. A leading geometric \(\alpha\) ansatz has a fixed 0.203% discrepancy. The complete nonlinear action must still calculate two-e-sphere charge and Coulomb scaling; force, inertia and \(F=ma\); the moving egg, de Broglie modulation and Lorentz covariance; Michelson–Morley and the gravitational/GR limit; Born probability and Bell correlations; \(g=2\), \(\alpha\) and AMM; hadron structure; and the joint cosmological kernel.
Write the action. Let Space calculate itself.

Introductory Quotes
Although I am fully convinced of the truth of the views given in this volume I by no means expect to convince experienced naturalists whose minds are stocked with a multitude of facts all viewed, during a long course of years, from a point of view directly opposite to mine. But I look with confidence to the future to young and rising naturalists, who will be able to view both sides of the question with impartiality. (Charles Darwin)
In scientific investigations, it is permitted to invent any hypothesis and, if it explains various large and independent classes of facts, it rises to the rank of a well-grounded theory. (Charles Darwin)
How extremely stupid for me not to have thought
of that!
(Thomas Huxley's first reflection after mastering, in 1859,
the central idea of Darwin's Origin of Species)
The different branches of science combine to demonstrate that the universe in its entirety can be regarded as one gigantic process, a process of becoming, of attaining new levels of existence and organization, which can properly be called a genesis or an evolution. (Thomas Huxley)
..that no absolute structural line of demarcation.. can be drawn between the animal world and ourselves. (Thomas Huxley, 1863 Man's Place in Nature)
Abuse for six or seven years on the part of the public is of not the greatest consequence when one happens to be in the right and stands to one's guns. (Thomas Huxley)
Introduction to Metaphysics of Evolution
Charles Darwin's Theory of Evolution is correct in the limited sense of life (plants, animals, fungi, etc.) but it exists without Metaphysical foundations. The Theory of Evolution does not explain what life is, how life exists as matter in Space, how life interacts with other life and matter at a distance in Space, how life reproduces, and how this caused life to evolve and adapt.
Only True Knowledge of Reality can provide this metaphysical foundation for Darwin's Theory of Evolution, and also our Cultural Evolution of Knowledge and Beliefs. Most significantly to humanity, as Wisdom is founded on Truth, until we know this Reality of What Exists, and thus what it truly means to be 'Human' it is impossible for humanity to be wise. And this wisdom is necessary if we are to succesfully evolve both Life and Knowledge / Culture that enables us to live in harmony with Nature and the Cosmos (and thus continue to survive in a universe that is both brutal and beautiful).
And so we realise that there is this profound problem for Evolution (and
physics, philosophy, metaphysics, theology and humanity) to understand
what is Evolving,
what is Matter, what is Reality such that we may know what is Truth, what
is wisdom.
This longstanding and most fundamental problem can now be solved with Logic
from Evolution (Evolutionary Philosophy).
Darwinian Evolution tells us that Evolution must have existed before Humans evolved / existed. Thus there was a time before humans existed when the human mind did not exist. Nonetheless, despit this absense of Mind, evolutionary reasoning still requires that our ancestors (Primates, Protomammals) physically existed for us to evolve from them (to evolve arms and legs, eyes and ears, etc.). Thus life on earth existed before our ideas of life on earth.
We can demonstrate the truth of this using the Motion of the Earth as it orbits the Sun, and how this would necessarily affect the evolution of life on Earth. Due to the Earth's daily spin, Animal life has consequently evolved daily behaviours. This is clearly confirmed by many evolutionary adaptations and behaviours, e.g. Animals sleeping, nocturnal hunting (and large eyes, ears), photosynthesis of plants. Likewise migration of birds and hibernation of bears are two of many obvious seasonal adaptations and behaviours that are caused by the yearly orbit of the Earth about the Sun.
Thus evolution deduces that the Earth does in fact exist, spin, and orbit the Sun. Now most people would think that this is pretty obvious, (we sleep every night because the earth spins as it orbits the sun - Galileo is famous for proving the motion of the Earth with his telescope and mathematical logic).
Remarkably, modern philosophy now believes that the motion of the Earth about the Sun is merely an idea, a human construction / represenation, and we can never know what in Reality exists (i.e. Kantian Idealism).
Yet Evolutionary Philosophy deduces that the earth physically existed and moved before we existed and had ideas of its motion and thus clearly contradicts Idealism. In fact reason from Evolution enables us to move beyond Idealim to the Realism of what must have first existed for us to have evolved to exist. We know that the Earth must move and thus both Space and Motion must necessarily exist (a priori) for the Earth to move ( as we haved clearly shown that the Earth spins as it orbits the Sun causing plants and animals to evolve certain adaptations, and in more general terms it is a fact that animals have evolved the ability to move themselves which likewise necessarily requires the existence of Space and Motion.
This Evolutionary Logic, of deducing what must have existed before human animals / minds existed, provides the necessary foundations for all human knowledge. This Reality of 'What Exists' can now be sensibly explained with the Metaphysics of Space and Motion and the Wave Structure of Matter. (See links to articles on the side of this page.)
Note: This page is an evolving work in progress. Nonetheless, there is a wealth of wisdom to be found in the famous quotations of Charles Darwin, Thomas Huxley, and the many Evolutionists and Philosophers of the past century (and in True Knowledge of Reality!). We hope you enjoy browsing around.

Evolution / Evolutionary Quotes from Famous Scientists
The biologist Julian Huxley (1887-1975) coined the term 'evolutionary
vision' in advocating such an outlook, suggesting that 'unlike most theologies,
it accepts the inevitability and, indeed, the desirability of change, and it
advances by welcoming new discovery, even when this conflicts with the old way
of thinking', and 'it shows us mind enthroned above matter, quantity subordinate
to quality'. Elsewhere Huxley went even further and claimed:
'The different branches of science combine to demonstrate that the universe
in its entirety can be regarded as one gigantic process, a process of becoming,
of attaining new levels of existence and organization, which can properly be
called a genesis or an evolution.'
(Cooper, The Evolving Mind)
Today, then, evolution is a term that is not restricted to biology. Ideas are
said to evolve, as well as nations, technologies, indeed anything that changes.
When used in a considered way and not merely as a cliche, however, the idea
of evolution connotes more than change. It implies a process which, as in biology,
is uninterrupted and causal, and which appears to follow an overall trend. (Cooper,
The Evolving Mind)
The question of questions : Thomas H Huxley, Evolution by Natural Selection and Buddhism. By Derek Freeman
How extremely stupid for me not to have thought of that!
(Huxley's first reflection after mastering, in 1859, the central idea of Darwin's
Origin of Species. p2)
In the Origin of Species, Darwin had not, in fact, discussed the bearing of
Evolution theory on the human species, other than to remark that "Light
will be thrown on the origin of man and his (sic) history." (p3)
..that no absolute structural line of demarcation.. can be drawn between the
animal world and ourselves. (Huxley, 1863 Man's Place in Nature.p4)
Huxley was thus the first to construct, on the basis of Darwin's theory of evolution
by ns, a clear and logical image of biological man, and as such, is clearly
the founder of evolutionary anthropology. (Freeman.p4)
Abuse for six or seven years on the part of the public is of not the greatest
consequence when one happens to be in the right and stands to one's guns. (Huxley.p4)
For Huxley, the notion that evolution can provide a foundation to morals was
'an illusion'. (Freeman.p9)
It will be admitted, that the garden is as much a work of art, or artifice,
as anything that can be mentioned. The same proposition is true of all the work
of man's hands, from a flint instrument, to a cathedral or a chronometer.. all
of which as works of art or artifice, are to be clearly distinguished from the
products of the cosmic process, working outside man, which we call natural..
(Huxley.p9)
Huxley is making the same distinction as Popper, between World 1, the world
of natural objects, and World 3, the world of human creations; and like Popper,
Huxley recognises that World 3 is produced by World 2, which is the world of
human consciousness and choice.
Furthermore, and most significantly, Huxley in 1893, is recognising what anthropologists
call culture is the result of human agency and choice, this being in crucial
contrast to Tylor, for whom cultures were the products of natural selection,
and to Kroeber and Boas, for whom culture, like God, was sui generis and beginningless.
(Freeman.p9)
Othello, lago adjures Roderigo:
'..tis in ourselves that we are thus and thus. Our bodies are gardens, to which
our wills are gardeners: so that if we plant nettles or sow lettuce.. why, the
power and corrigible authority of this lies in our wills'
(p.10)
Man has worked his way to the headship of the sentient world and has become
the dominant animal that he (sic) is, by virtue of his (sic) success in the
struggle for existence; and, in this struggle- as among other animals - it is
'self-assertion, the unscrupulous seizing upon all that can be grasped, the
tenacious holding of all that can be kept, that have mattered. (Huxley p.11)
Our brains are separate and independant enough from our genes to rebel against
them.. we do so in a small way everytime we use contraception. There is no reason
why we should not rebel in a large way too. (Dawkins The Selfish Gene 1989.
p 14 Freeman)
William Baum, writing of animal organisms, has advanced as "fundamental"
the propostion that 'all behaviour constitutes choice, because in any set of
environmental conditions several alternatives can occur' (p 15)
The emergence of culture in the course of evolution is to be viewed therefore
as 'a new niche that arose from the experimentation of animals with multiple
choice behaviour,' and it is to this evolutionary innovation that the rise of
cultural adaptations in the human species is traced. We thus have before us,
as a result of the researchers of the previous decades, a view of human evolution
in which the genetic and the cultural are distinct and interacting parts of
a single system, and this means that, for anthropology, 'the evolution of choice
behaviour is the key'. (Freeman.p 16)
Antonio Damasio, Prof of Neurology in the Uni. of Iowa, in his book of 1994:
Descartes' Error : Emotion, Reason and The Human Brain, has shown from his study
of individuals who have suffered damage to their brains, from the surgical removal
of tumours, that the human capacity to make choices is principally located in
the neural circuits in the frontal lobes.
The human capacity to make choices, from which both art and science spring,
is thus biologically given. And further it is evident, that the two main mechanisms
that have operated in the course of human evolution and history are the related
mechanisms of natural selection and choice, for it is natural selection which
has produced the brain in the frontal lobes of which the capacity to make choices
is located. (Freeman.p 17)
Yet the freedom that our ability to make choices confers on us, is, as Dostoevsky
realized, radically amoral in that it may endanger evil as readily as virtue-
evil as in Claudius's prompting of Laertes to 'choose a sword unbated' and Laertes's
choosing to annoint its point with the deadly contagion of an unction he had
bought of a mountebank, or, on an altogether vaster and more horrific scale,
the Holocaust. (Huxley. p 18)
..the potentiality to do good is also the potential to do evil, and this means
that we humans, with impulses and propensities coded in our neuropeptides and
in the limbic systems of our brains as the result of millions of years of ev.
by means of ns, and possessing a freedom, through imaginative choice to enact
these impulses and propensities in virtually an infinity of ways, are existentially
in need- as are no other animals- of a code of ethics by which to order our
behaviour. We are truly the changelings of possiblity. (Freeman.p 18)
For the first time in the history of the world, Buddhism proclaimed a salvation
which each individual could gain from him or herself, in this world, during
this life, without any least reference to God, or to gods either great or small.
(Huxley p20)
It is proper for you to doubt.. do not go upon report.. do not go upon tradition..do
not go upon hearsay..'
(Buddha, Kalama Sutra p20)
Criticism is the deliverance of the human mind from entanglements and passions.
It is freedom itself. This is the true Buddhist standpoint.' ( T.L.V Murti,
The Central Philosophy of Buddhism p21)
In Buddhism, one of the five precepts (all of which are concerned with the combating
of natural inclination) is 'not to lie', and the apperception of things as they
actually are, or sunyata, is the mark of an enlightened individual.
'...truth is better than much profit. I have searched over the grounds of my
belief, and if wife and child and name and fame were all to be lost to me one
after the other as the penalty, still I will not lie..
..The absolute justice of the system of things is as clear to me as any scientific
fact. The gravitation of sin to sorrow is as certain as that of the earth to
the sun, and more so- for the experimental proof of the fact is within reach
of us all- nay, is before us all in our lives, if we had but eyes to see it'
(Huxley, letter to Charles Kingsley Sept. 23 1860 p.21)
What our species needs, above all else, is a generally accepted ethical system
that is compatible with the scientific knowledge we now possess. (Freeman. p23)
What the individual can do is to give a fine example, and to have the courage
to uphold ethical values.. in a society of cynics. (Einstein, letter to Max
Born. p 23)

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)
We can now deduce the most simple science theory of reality - the wave structure of matter in space. By understanding how we and everything around us are interconnected
in Space we can then deduce solutions to the fundamental problems of human knowledge in physics, philosophy, metaphysics, theology, education, health, evolution and ecology, politics and society.
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.
It is Easy to Help!
Just click on the Social Network links at top of page, or copy a nice image or quote you like and share it. We have a wonderful collection of knowledge from the greatest minds in human history, so people will appreciate your contributions. In doing this you will help a new generation of scientists see that there is a simple sensible explanation of physical reality (One Substance, One Law) - the source of truth and wisdom, the only cure for the madness of man!

A new scientific truth does not triumph by convincing its opponents and making them see the light, but rather because its opponents eventually die, and a new generation grows up that is familiar with it. (Max Planck, 1920)
