existence of consciousness (IONS).

Or is continuity our reality and the zero point just a mathematical artifact or calculational convenience? Even the original Greek Natural Philosophers argued over just this ‘point’ and never solved the point problem, so they never accepted the zero point as a valid number.

Even toward the end of his famous Habilitationsschrift a half century earlier in 1854, where Riemann spoke of the physical possibilities of knowing and understanding the space his differential geometry explained, Bernhard Riemann stated that we could not really understand and know what space is until we conquered the smallest possible measure of space, the quanta. \nThe belief that Einstein rid physics of the concept of absolute space and time was then and is still thought, taught, and caressed with passion and enthusiasm as strict scientific dogma by all concerned, even though he only rendered them unnecessary to do modern post-revolutionary physics, i.e., his relativity theories and gravity. But that fact was nothing new. The non-usefulness of absolute space and time had been known since Newton’s time when all physical mechanics describing matter in motion took place in relativistic space and time without reference to Newton’s concept of absolute space. Absolute space and time were only had mathematical and philosophical importance. \nYet now, the unification of all the major physics paradigms demonstrates conclusively that quantum theory and the quantum world that it portrays is nothing more nor less than a new intuitive vision of a physical point-absolute space and time that has been derived mathematically because no such thing as a zero-point of nothing, a no-thing, an infinitely small nothingness, or such physical nonsense can exist in our physical space or time without the universe collapsing into it. Points, whether discrete or not, are just mathematical gimmicks used for conceptualization and the logical ordering of how we think. \nSo, the real problem for physics is ‘what is a point’ and if zero points of physical space are real then how can that reality be justified? Or is continuity our reality and the zero point just a mathematical artifact or calculational convenience? Even the original Greek Natural Philosophers argued over just this ‘point’ and never solved the point problem, so they never accepted the zero point as a valid number. For Newton, who was familiar with motion and matter in motion, this problem was translated into his spinning bucket experiment which he related to the orbit of Jupiter. \n","owner":{"id":13393868,"first_name":"James (Jim)","middle_initials":"E","last_name":"Beichler","page_name":"JamesJimBeichler","domain_name":"webplus","created_at":"2014-06-29T10:57:17.966-07:00","display_name":"James (Jim) E Beichler","url":"https://webplus.academia.edu/JamesJimBeichler"},"attachments":[{"id":115418667,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/115418667/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"Quantum_absolute_space_04.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/115418667/download_file?st=MTczMzk1OTcwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"Quantum_absolute_space_04.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/115418667/Quantum_absolute_space_04-libre.pdf?1716941321=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DQuantum_absolute_space_04.pdf\u0026Expires=1733853416\u0026Signature=MvdNpwH3GPssIXR4Gpfd13PI7A5O2ovAwi6ey7gLDd0hFNHJDXA8cTu4F8Sf686KFJsSy20eW397DTi4hqS8OHWm0hDIDBnjQaytI3p3-8zWtriFrN23nw7~nCIDlo~Plp42qg5TCpd1Z~qh21BvT7GBV~aPut~DmfrD4W8Ta0za4TlxRhRhuRjl2P5NirrdmWLG~d8O7cXV7OlNwIAoJbUOnD7R59EeCTKizQTUMaxvHyn31hlW9GoKUvMFdjCJ9cFBJo7zBXH3flmU~585jze-a-DsFI~ONxLS1Qezrmu5arSb~f-Ck8QfiEbBRV~D9Tbx2W~ktSKPbtkWH~PoAw__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"research_interests":[{"id":498,"name":"Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Physics"},{"id":518,"name":"Quantum Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Quantum_Physics"},{"id":3396,"name":"Foundations of Quantum Mechanics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Foundations_of_Quantum_Mechanics"},{"id":3504,"name":"General Relativity","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/General_Relativity"},{"id":6813,"name":"Quantum Cosmology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Quantum_Cosmology"},{"id":10092,"name":"Quantum Field Theory","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Quantum_Field_Theory"},{"id":29702,"name":"Theoretical Fundamental Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Theoretical_Fundamental_Physics"},{"id":65989,"name":"Grand Unification","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Grand_Unification"},{"id":66885,"name":"General Theory of Relativity","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/General_Theory_of_Relativity"},{"id":93166,"name":"Fundamental Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Fundamental_Physics"},{"id":112717,"name":"Theory of Everything","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Theory_of_Everything"},{"id":123242,"name":"String Theory, Quantum Field Theory, Black Holes","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/String_Theory_Quantum_Field_Theory_Black_Holes"},{"id":498542,"name":"Cosmology and Theory of Everything","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Cosmology_and_Theory_of_Everything"},{"id":819046,"name":"Fundamentals of Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Fundamentals_of_Physics"}],"urls":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="114037661"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" href="https://www.academia.edu/114037661/An_evolutionary_new_Thermodynamics"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of An evolutionary new Thermodynamics" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://attachments.academia-assets.com/110841090/thumbnails/1.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/114037661/An_evolutionary_new_Thermodynamics">An evolutionary new Thermodynamics</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">One of the greatest unsolved mysteries in physics is the formation and evolution of material syst...</span><a class="js-work-more-abstract" data-broccoli-component="work_strip.more_abstract" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-more-abstract" href="javascript:;"><span> more </span><span><i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></span></a><span class="js-work-more-abstract-untruncated hidden">One of the greatest unsolved mysteries in physics is the formation and evolution of material systems.

By taking a wholly new approach founded upon the single field unification of physics, which has already been used to define and model life (the biofield), mind and consciousness within the context of a truly unified field theory, a model of how the brain works from sensation input to memory storage and recall, to building and storing complex memories, all the way through and up to the formation of self-concepts and worldviews, as well as the whole-brain resonance necessary for simple cognition, and beyond to whole-body coherence representing the manifestation of higher consciousness. Within this context, wholly new areas of physics are opened to science, including what ends life, death and what happens thereafter.","owner":{"id":13393868,"first_name":"James (Jim)","middle_initials":"E","last_name":"Beichler","page_name":"JamesJimBeichler","domain_name":"webplus","created_at":"2014-06-29T10:57:17.966-07:00","display_name":"James (Jim) E Beichler","url":"https://webplus.academia.edu/JamesJimBeichler"},"attachments":[{"id":104528494,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/104528494/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"Brainworks_Power_Point_Presentation.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/104528494/download_file?st=MTczMzk1OTcwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"THE_EMERGENCE_OF_CONSCIOUSNESS_IN_BRAIN.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/104528494/Brainworks_Power_Point_Presentation-libre.pdf?1690334667=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DTHE_EMERGENCE_OF_CONSCIOUSNESS_IN_BRAIN.pdf\u0026Expires=1733853416\u0026Signature=WplPOGoM-Po9StMJADhE6TeT~tLjQW9ol61GRllsLcsZ-mIqz8zRSNhWVmjdXbt0VTbEEJonRmaQUb4Fs1j2J5uADzcyrsGEQZNgGnsQY2o-GMYLLXJ2oLdbwGU1t6MMYvBZUts3pfjUV9zh38WxppG4mdSNOUitxu6jza6iqTztTemwJBN7eOLs7Vj4yO3xNBc1OJoCeid~Uen2D2Y3L8xYKcbklhyTQ9zZABQJkMGgga~TSyXibDvPIo1nHHiIhCOpG~PJATPmZe3it7Ta969btvnEuudb8ChKERaD-1wZRlklk84smDc2q5nz9k-pSxjA9tW46uoVtC-9PiHNcQ__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"research_interests":[{"id":155,"name":"Evolutionary Biology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Evolutionary_Biology"},{"id":221,"name":"Psychology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Psychology"},{"id":236,"name":"Cognitive Psychology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Cognitive_Psychology"},{"id":241,"name":"Parapsychology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Parapsychology"},{"id":502,"name":"Biophysics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Biophysics"},{"id":7710,"name":"Biology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Biology"},{"id":9040,"name":"Consciousness","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Consciousness"},{"id":40633,"name":"Consciousness Studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Consciousness_Studies"},{"id":45890,"name":"Scientific Parapsychology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Scientific_Parapsychology"},{"id":59832,"name":"Parapsychology, Anthropology, Mediumship, Phenomenology, Spiritualism, Paranormal, Supernatural, Folklore, Religion, Sociology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Parapsychology_Anthropology_Mediumship_Phenomenology_Spiritualism_Paranormal_Supernatural_Fol"},{"id":446069,"name":"Paraphysics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Paraphysics"},{"id":905178,"name":"Biochemistry and Biophysics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Biochemistry_and_Biophysics"}],"urls":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="95695481"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" href="https://www.academia.edu/95695481/Survival_of_Consciousness"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of Survival of Consciousness" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://attachments.academia-assets.com/97806588/thumbnails/1.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/95695481/Survival_of_Consciousness">Survival of Consciousness</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">Two years ago, Robert Bigelow and the Bigelow Institute for Consciousness Studies (BICS) announce...</span><a class="js-work-more-abstract" data-broccoli-component="work_strip.more_abstract" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-more-abstract" href="javascript:;"><span> more </span><span><i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></span></a><span class="js-work-more-abstract-untruncated hidden">Two years ago, Robert Bigelow and the Bigelow Institute for Consciousness Studies (BICS) announced an essay competition for the best evidence of the afterlife, i.e., the survival of consciousness past bodily death.

But none of these rises to the level of 'best evidence' for 'proving' the reality of the afterlife. The truth is that there is no falsifiable evidence that can distinguish between the afterlife and other paranormal phenomena, i.e., there are always alternative super-psi or general psi explanations for the data, stories and evidence gathered by parapsychologists and experienced by individuals. The afterlife hypothesis is neither falsifiable nor verifiable given the absolute best 'so-called evidence' available today. Only a valid theory could offer scientific verifiability and also distinguish whether the evidence gathered so far supports the afterlife concept or super-psi. So, with no valid theory of the afterlife available, either an independent acceptable theory based on specific phenomena or better yet as part of a greater comprehensive theory of physical reality, there is nothing on which to base a truly rigorous experiment that could verify the afterlife to the satisfaction of both the scientific and nonscientific communities. Some form of valid acceptable theory is necessary and long overdue to explain and verify the various paranormal phenomena as well as hone the scientific search for survival of consciousness and the afterlife. We must assume that at least consciousness survives as either part or the whole of any possible afterlife. All of the common paranormal examples that deal with the afterlife are in some way simply different data points that should be used to follow the scientific method and lead to some common physical concept that we identify as the afterlife, so the hypothesis can be tested and verified. Not one of these examples is based on anything other than experiences/observations for which no comprehensive scientific model has ever been developed and/or studied in enough detail to even attempt to verify even the minimum level survival of consciousness in some manner. Only one theoretical unification model in modern physics, the single (operational) field theory or SOFT, is comprehensive enough to model life, mind, and consciousness and their evolution in enough specific detail to even talk logically about survival of consciousness. Be this as it may, the only possible 'best evidence' would then be the direct experience of higher consciousness, as in NDEs and enlightenment, which are very personal experiences, but even then, it could only be used as evidence, the best evidence, when it can be analyzed and understood as a physical phenomenon within the context of SOFT, an equivalent or better theoretical model.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="4691a5f1c0bb9992e1547920a5260e04" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":74464145,"asset_id":61433479,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/74464145/download_file?st=MTczMzk1OTcwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="61433479"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span><span id="work-strip-rankings-button-container"></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="61433479"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 61433479; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=61433479]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=61433479]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 61433479; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='61433479']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span><span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 61433479, container: "", }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-f77ea15d77ce96025a6048a514272ad8becbad23c641fc2b3bd6e24ca6ff1932.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (true){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "4691a5f1c0bb9992e1547920a5260e04" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=61433479]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":61433479,"title":"Best evidence for the afterlife is something 'to die for'","translated_title":"","metadata":{"abstract":"The best evidence presently available for the afterlife has already been tried and found wanting, although there is a great deal of good and various levels of even better evidence when NDEs, reincarnation, new standards for verifying mediumship, death bed visions and other phenomena related to dying and the afterlife are considered.

ASCSI Board is planning our annual conference for early October, in the Durham/Raleigh/Research Triangle area of North Carolina. This will be at least a three-day conference with speakers covering all aspects of Spirituality and Consciousness, whether non-scientific, scientific or experiential, within the context of the above stated theme. Jim Beichler, a leading expert in the physics of consciousness, historian of science, President of the Academy and Editor of the Academy publications, will do one Keynote (evening) presentation and a three-hour seminar/workshop on the concepts and future of consciousness and spirituality within their physical (scientific) context. We would like to see and present a balance between valid science, practitioners and experiencers, as well as professionals and laymen in the field of spirituality and consciousness studies. This includes all areas of parapsychology and paraphysics. The ASCSI will announce other speakers as well as the final dates and venue for the conference as that information becomes available. In the meantime, though ASCSI is asking for speakers, presenters and workshop leaders to submit a one-page 500-to 800-word abstract (description) for proposed presenters. The ASCSI is also seeking co-sponsors for the conference in the form of labs, educational institutions and universities, like-minded organizations, and other groups of practitioners, experiencers and people who want to make a real difference and impact the emerging shift in consciousness and spirituality that humanity is presently experiencing. Transformation and ascension are to spirituality what evolution and revolution are to consciousness, especially in with respect to science, respectively, and this conference will cover these topics as thoroughly and comprehensively as possible in the allotted time. This conference is especially important and timely given the present state of emerging AI, the recent emergence of brain machine interfaces and the possibility of our discovery of intelligent sentient life elsewhere in the universe, as well as the impact that these discoveries will have on the further development and evolution of human consciousness. We especially welcome students and younger adults to participate and attend the conference because the subjects we are discussing will bear heavily on their future wellbeing, comfort, security, happiness and every aspect of their overall lives and living conditions. We are planning our conference in spite of the recent coronavirus scare, assuming that such a conference will be okay in the Fall after the Summer of 2020. We are also taking into consideration other venues, such as the internet, for the conference IF AND ONLY IF having 'in person' attendance to the conference is not allowed in October, or we need to cancel the conference due to the coronavirus. So please do not hesitate to send an abstract. Presenters and workshop leaders will not have to pay for the conference, and they will receive gratis e-membership in the ASCSI but will be responsible for their own room and board. We will help them in this regard as much as we are able to but cannot yet commit to helping them financially. Keynote speakers (only) will have the same as well as receive room and board for their participation, but we cannot give honorariums unless we receive some form of outside funding (specific donations) or grants. We are also seeking grant money, and if we are successful, we may be able to support others to attend the conference. We normally publish an official Proceedings for the conference, but submitting an article or paper is completely voluntary, although we encourage and highly recommend everyone to do so. Registration fees and availability will be published later, when we decide on the final venue and dates.

physical or realistic scientific theory of consciousness requires four different fundamental elements: (1) Unification of physics; (2) A new theory of physical evolution; (3) Precise physical definitions of life, mind and consciousness; and, (4) A complete physics of the brain. When these four are finished, a complete and comprehensive model of physical reality emerges which is not only amenable to consciousness but requires consciousness to evolve. Consciousness is therefore a fundamental part of all living organisms and beings as well as the universe at large that extends beyond the three-dimensions of normal experiential space but becomes higher consciousness as the four-dimensional extension of our being into an embedding hyperspace.

The Axial age, from 700 to 300 BCE, saw a Zeroth Scientific Revolution in the West, from Thales to Aristotle, Archimedes, and Euclid. Almost simultaneously, Lao Tzu and Confucius appeared in China and the era of a Hundred Philosophies began, ending only when the Imperial Age began, while Siddhartha Gautama and Mahavira began changes in India that only ended when the Veda declined with the rise of Buddhism and the Ashokan Empire conquered India and surrounding areas, spreading Buddhism farther and wider than previous beliefs had ever gone. These changes during the Axial Age established the fundamental differences in worldview that we still witness and live by today in the East and West. Yet many scholars point to early technological developments in China such as gunpowder and rockets and wonder how China failed to capitalize on these and other developments to establish a theoretical basis for science, as did western culture, while major advances in mathematics and other scholarly pursuits occurred in India, raising the same questions. But in these historical speculations, and they are no more than idle and prejudicial speculations, there is at least an inaccurate presumption if not a dangerous assumption that Eastern philosophies are somehow unscientific, a view which mistakenly places Eastern ideas and ideals in an inferior position relative to Western science. Neither the statement that Eastern cultures did not formulate sciences nor the implications of this statement can be regarded as complete or even partially accurate. That inaccuracy has now become evident with Western science since modern physics has evolved to the point where concepts such as wholeness, subjectivity, and consciousness that are more common to Eastern science have now become fashionable in the West and have raised concerns about new advances in science itself. The new single (operational) field theory, or SOFT, offers Western and Eastern sciences a chance to combine their characteristic ideals reductionism and wholism, seemingly opposite fundamental approaches to science, into a new and far more comprehensive physics of reality for the first time in human history.  <br /><br />Keywords: Consciousness, unification, East, West, hyperspace, the fourth dimension, three-dimensional space, Chi, Ki, Prana, higher consciousness, modern physics, point and extension, dualisms, function and form</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="1035b078983a3dc0119d84572883d2d3" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":59078119,"asset_id":38973343,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/59078119/download_file?st=MTczMzk1OTcwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="38973343"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span><span id="work-strip-rankings-button-container"></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="38973343"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 38973343; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=38973343]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=38973343]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 38973343; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='38973343']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span><span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 38973343, container: "", }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-f77ea15d77ce96025a6048a514272ad8becbad23c641fc2b3bd6e24ca6ff1932.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (true){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "1035b078983a3dc0119d84572883d2d3" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=38973343]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":38973343,"title":"Tao, Physics, and Unification in Consciousness: Everything is one","translated_title":"","metadata":{"abstract":"One of the great unanswered questions in the history and philosophy of science is why science arose in the West and not in the East.

Given other recent confirmations of Einstein's general relativity, found mostly in the detection of gravitational waves that Einstein predicted a century ago, relativity theory seems on the ascendancy and quantum theory is falling behind.

Recent historical trends indicate that both spirituality and consciousness studies are growing evermore important in our various societies, cultures and educational institutions. To keep up with these trends, the ASCSI is planning to expand its role in these fields of study, moving from a passive role to a more active role in promoting increasing levels of spirituality and consciousness individually and collectively within our societies. We are currently seeking contributions (both monetary and in-kind) to help enhance and grow our beneficial and valuable organization. Included in our expansion efforts, we have been busy in the planning of our annual 2018 conference, which, this year, is in conjunction with the Spiritual Frontiers Fellowship of North Carolina. This year’s conference will be held at Unity of the Triangle in Raleigh, NC and will run from Thursday evening, October 4 to Saturday evening, October 6, 2018. We have arranged a broad program of both workshops and lectures based on the title theme “ASPECTS OF CONSCIOUSNESS; Theoretical, Spiritual, Anomalous, Experiential”. We have sought to offer a comprehensive representation of the subject matter and will continue to do so in the future. With this conference all set, we are already beginning to consider next year's conference and with this in mind we are issuing a preliminary “CALL FOR PAPERS”. For information about this new \"CALL FOR PAPERS\" for next year's conference send an email to my email,jebeichler@ascsi.org.

The quantum is believed by most to be more fundamental than relativity and continuity of space. That interpretation of or world is just BS (Bad Science). Under these circumstances, it is an accepted fact (not a natural truth) that any unification of the two major modern paradigms, general relativity, and the quantum, can and will only be based upon of overthrow relativity and our modern ideas of gravity by the quantum. Yet nothing in science could be further from the truth and our experiences of our true physical reality. <br />Einstein can even be blamed in part for these views because he got rid of the need for Newton’s concept of absolute time and space. In essence he prepared the way for the takeover of the quantum. Even toward the end of his famous Habilitationsschrift a half century earlier in 1854, where Riemann spoke of the physical possibilities of knowing and understanding the space his differential geometry explained, Bernhard Riemann stated that we could not really understand and know what space is until we conquered the smallest possible measure of space, the quanta. <br />The belief that Einstein rid physics of the concept of absolute space and time was then and is still thought, taught, and caressed with passion and enthusiasm as strict scientific dogma by all concerned, even though he only rendered them unnecessary to do modern post-revolutionary physics, i.e., his relativity theories and gravity. But that fact was nothing new. The non-usefulness of absolute space and time had been known since Newton’s time when all physical mechanics describing matter in motion took place in relativistic space and time without reference to Newton’s concept of absolute space. Absolute space and time were only had mathematical and philosophical importance.  <br />Yet now, the unification of all the major physics paradigms demonstrates conclusively that quantum theory and the quantum world that it portrays is nothing more nor less than a new intuitive vision of a physical point-absolute space and time that has been derived mathematically because no such thing as a zero-point of nothing, a no-thing, an infinitely small nothingness, or such physical nonsense can exist in our physical space or time without the universe collapsing into it. Points, whether discrete or not, are just mathematical gimmicks used for conceptualization and the logical ordering of how we think.  <br />So, the real problem for physics is ‘what is a point’ and if zero points of physical space are real then how can that reality be justified?

Nearly everyone in the physics community would say that this is a long-solved problem, but they do not even notice that the formation and evolution of material systems, both animate and inanimate, are in direct violation of the laws of thermodynamics, which is also completely accepted 'as is' by the physics and scientific communities. Under these circumstances, two new theories of galactic and universal evolution have recently been proposed. But a better place for such a physics theory of physical evolution would be in a new and more comprehensive balanced thermodynamics so it could counter the physical principle of entropy in those physical instances that it does not matter. After all, entropy is, in fact, a form of anti-or deevolution. When a living or animate body dies, it becomes inanimate matter and entropy takes over in the body as the living processes and interactions cease. Unfortunately, the laws or principles of thermodynamics as they now stand are grossly incomplete and needfully wrong, but no one seems to have seen this error. The simplest error in them is that they refer to closed systems, which is commonly accepted, but there is no such thing as a closed system in the universe unless it is the universe itself, as a unitary continuous whole. So additional laws or rules are needed to fill this theoretical gap: Primarily Prigogine's Principle and chaos theory with the emergence of complexities. Nor does thermodynamics take into direct consideration the natural forces that rule physics and all physical interactions. However, thermodynamics can be extended to take these into account and thus develop a complete and comprehensive view of the physical universe. Doing so carries surprises in it with the development of physical evolution, both animate and inanimate, as a common property of the physical universe, and more.","owner":{"id":13393868,"first_name":"James (Jim)","middle_initials":"E","last_name":"Beichler","page_name":"JamesJimBeichler","domain_name":"webplus","created_at":"2014-06-29T10:57:17.966-07:00","display_name":"James (Jim) E Beichler","url":"https://webplus.academia.edu/JamesJimBeichler"},"attachments":[{"id":110841090,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/110841090/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"An_evolutionary_new_thermodynamics.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/110841090/download_file?st=MTczMzk1OTcwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"An_evolutionary_new_Thermodynamics.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/110841090/An_evolutionary_new_thermodynamics-libre.pdf?1706212263=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DAn_evolutionary_new_Thermodynamics.pdf\u0026Expires=1733853416\u0026Signature=Qrn9ADt04ipMavU-ZwAHmCBS0~hzNaI5lS752dbxSj0ugdrATTvxVxe5-KcYdHRbh7UW0NWnC45wOG5M~zGkIHXibymdDoK0bNnWjQ875lKEmvLH2KcGoGcjjC~h6WCrUNlwcCFaj6N-hwH54dUBoM3E9aMH8KN513z4dRsHzT8DlTCNzOZuehR-WZ2jLHCKYfrIbaz9-MGwVFl-xHS32C9cX8yrSibth9NPsIQ3VhH6iuL5v4UY0UIPzWy8ddVdGZmT~70zo0KRrw08TU1-jnF5Wv6B9wAtjux32G0vnWMQUgk6RAGnJVifGAXtoc6--0KCgsuZDk9c0ExkfCLERg__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"research_interests":[{"id":155,"name":"Evolutionary Biology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Evolutionary_Biology"},{"id":255,"name":"Evolutionary Psychology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Evolutionary_Psychology"},{"id":503,"name":"Theoretical Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Theoretical_Physics"},{"id":522,"name":"Thermodynamics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Thermodynamics"},{"id":772,"name":"Human Evolution","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Human_Evolution"},{"id":10882,"name":"Evolution","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Evolution"},{"id":11050,"name":"Galaxy Formation and Evolution","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Galaxy_Formation_and_Evolution"},{"id":17607,"name":"Evolution of Consciousness","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Evolution_of_Consciousness"},{"id":38922,"name":"Chaos/Complexities","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Chaos_Complexities"},{"id":88246,"name":"Nonequilibrium and irreversible thermodynamics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Nonequilibrium_and_irreversible_thermodynamics"},{"id":717029,"name":"Stability and Chaos","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Stability_and_Chaos"}],"urls":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="105027767"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" href="https://www.academia.edu/105027767/Simple_unification"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of Simple unification" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://attachments.academia-assets.com/104595733/thumbnails/1.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/105027767/Simple_unification">Simple unification</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">You cannot unify QT and GR until you identify the role of points (not within points as the non-Ri...</span><a class="js-work-more-abstract" data-broccoli-component="work_strip.more_abstract" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-more-abstract" href="javascript:;"><span> more </span><span><i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></span></a><span class="js-work-more-abstract-untruncated hidden">You cannot unify QT and GR until you identify the role of points (not within points as the non-Riemannian geometries tried to do, nor as Klein’s ambiguous 1-D quantum-point extension of Kaluza 5-D GR as do subsequent superstring and brane theories) within a surface described by Riemannian geometry, even though tensors are placed at points for calculational purposes in Riemannian 4-D space-time.

But none of these rises to the level of 'best evidence' for 'proving' the reality of the afterlife. The truth is that there is no falsifiable evidence that can distinguish between the afterlife and other paranormal phenomena, i.e., there are always alternative super-psi or general psi explanations for the data, stories and evidence gathered by parapsychologists and experienced by individuals. The afterlife hypothesis is neither falsifiable nor verifiable given the absolute best 'so-called evidence' available today. Only a valid theory could offer scientific verifiability and also distinguish whether the evidence gathered so far supports the afterlife concept or super-psi. So, with no valid theory of the afterlife available, either an independent acceptable theory based on specific phenomena or better yet as part of a greater comprehensive theory of physical reality, there is nothing on which to base a truly rigorous experiment that could verify the afterlife to the satisfaction of both the scientific and nonscientific communities. Some form of valid acceptable theory is necessary and long overdue to explain and verify the various paranormal phenomena as well as hone the scientific search for survival of consciousness and the afterlife. We must assume that at least consciousness survives as either part or the whole of any possible afterlife. All of the common paranormal examples that deal with the afterlife are in some way simply different data points that should be used to follow the scientific method and lead to some common physical concept that we identify as the afterlife, so the hypothesis can be tested and verified.

ASCSI Board is planning our annual conference for early October, in the Durham/Raleigh/Research Triangle area of North Carolina. This will be at least a three-day conference with speakers covering all aspects of Spirituality and Consciousness, whether non-scientific, scientific or experiential, within the context of the above stated theme. Jim Beichler, a leading expert in the physics of consciousness, historian of science, President of the Academy and Editor of the Academy publications, will do one Keynote (evening) presentation and a three-hour seminar/workshop on the concepts and future of consciousness and spirituality within their physical (scientific) context. We would like to see and present a balance between valid science, practitioners and experiencers, as well as professionals and laymen in the field of spirituality and consciousness studies. This includes all areas of parapsychology and paraphysics. The ASCSI will announce other speakers as well as the final dates and venue for the conference as that information becomes available. In the meantime, though ASCSI is asking for speakers, presenters and workshop leaders to submit a one-page 500-to 800-word abstract (description) for proposed presenters. The ASCSI is also seeking co-sponsors for the conference in the form of labs, educational institutions and universities, like-minded organizations, and other groups of practitioners, experiencers and people who want to make a real difference and impact the emerging shift in consciousness and spirituality that humanity is presently experiencing. Transformation and ascension are to spirituality what evolution and revolution are to consciousness, especially in with respect to science, respectively, and this conference will cover these topics as thoroughly and comprehensively as possible in the allotted time. This conference is especially important and timely given the present state of emerging AI, the recent emergence of brain machine interfaces and the possibility of our discovery of intelligent sentient life elsewhere in the universe, as well as the impact that these discoveries will have on the further development and evolution of human consciousness. We especially welcome students and younger adults to participate and attend the conference because the subjects we are discussing will bear heavily on their future wellbeing, comfort, security, happiness and every aspect of their overall lives and living conditions. We are planning our conference in spite of the recent coronavirus scare, assuming that such a conference will be okay in the Fall after the Summer of 2020. We are also taking into consideration other venues, such as the internet, for the conference IF AND ONLY IF having 'in person' attendance to the conference is not allowed in October, or we need to cancel the conference due to the coronavirus. So please do not hesitate to send an abstract. Presenters and workshop leaders will not have to pay for the conference, and they will receive gratis e-membership in the ASCSI but will be responsible for their own room and board. We will help them in this regard as much as we are able to but cannot yet commit to helping them financially. Keynote speakers (only) will have the same as well as receive room and board for their participation, but we cannot give honorariums unless we receive some form of outside funding (specific donations) or grants. We are also seeking grant money, and if we are successful, we may be able to support others to attend the conference. We normally publish an official Proceedings for the conference, but submitting an article or paper is completely voluntary, although we encourage and highly recommend everyone to do so. Registration fees and availability will be published later, when we decide on the final venue and dates.

The Axial age, from 700 to 300 BCE, saw a Zeroth Scientific Revolution in the West, from Thales to Aristotle, Archimedes, and Euclid. Almost simultaneously, Lao Tzu and Confucius appeared in China and the era of a Hundred Philosophies began, ending only when the Imperial Age began, while Siddhartha Gautama and Mahavira began changes in India that only ended when the Veda declined with the rise of Buddhism and the Ashokan Empire conquered India and surrounding areas, spreading Buddhism farther and wider than previous beliefs had ever gone. These changes during the Axial Age established the fundamental differences in worldview that we still witness and live by today in the East and West. Yet many scholars point to early technological developments in China such as gunpowder and rockets and wonder how China failed to capitalize on these and other developments to establish a theoretical basis for science, as did western culture, while major advances in mathematics and other scholarly pursuits occurred in India, raising the same questions. But in these historical speculations, and they are no more than idle and prejudicial speculations, there is at least an inaccurate presumption if not a dangerous assumption that Eastern philosophies are somehow unscientific, a view which mistakenly places Eastern ideas and ideals in an inferior position relative to Western science.

Recent historical trends indicate that both spirituality and consciousness studies are growing evermore important in our various societies, cultures and educational institutions. To keep up with these trends, the ASCSI is planning to expand its role in these fields of study, moving from a passive role to a more active role in promoting increasing levels of spirituality and consciousness individually and collectively within our societies. We are currently seeking contributions (both monetary and in-kind) to help enhance and grow our beneficial and valuable organization. Included in our expansion efforts, we have been busy in the planning of our annual 2018 conference, which, this year, is in conjunction with the Spiritual Frontiers Fellowship of North Carolina. This year’s conference will be held at Unity of the Triangle in Raleigh, NC and will run from Thursday evening, October 4 to Saturday evening, October 6, 2018. We have arranged a broad program of both workshops and lectures based on the title theme “ASPECTS OF CONSCIOUSNESS; Theoretical, Spiritual, Anomalous, Experiential”. We have sought to offer a comprehensive representation of the subject matter and will continue to do so in the future. With this conference all set, we are already beginning to consider next year's conference and with this in mind we are issuing a preliminary “CALL FOR PAPERS”.

Bottom-up consciousness, from the individual organism or being to the universe, and Consciousness from the top-down, from the universe to the individual. These two approaches mark the outer boundaries of the present scientific search for a theoretical model of consciousness, even though Consciousness goes beyond science and moves into the realm of metaphysics. In any case, everything in between these two approaches is seriously muddled and clouded with speculations and metatheories that cannot be possible, which is common to the period preceding a scientific revolution. Some of those speculations and metatheories sound rather esoteric and even spiritual, which allows them to appeal to many people, but they would normally be considered non-scientific by definition if they were expressed for anything other than consciousness, which in itself presents a total mystery to science and the scientists who are willing to attempt to explain consciousness. On the other hand, what little concrete information science has at its disposal about consciousness does seem to match ideas in eastern mystical thought and in some cases earlier western ideas in Natural Philosophy that have been rejected by science, which further muddles the scientific quest for understanding consciousness. These ideas and concepts fit the qualitative aspects of mind that science normally associates with consciousness even better as well as the direct characteristics of consciousness, at least to the extent that such characteristics are known. Science needs to find a balance between them so it can maximize the effect of the next scientific revolution as well as the corresponding evolutionary leap in consciousness that is coming, but physics must simultaneously develop a working unified field theory to better define the universe in which consciousness of any kind, shape or form can and has developed.","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/34710506/Consciousness_Manifesto_Physical_origins_of_consciousness_through_evolution_and_revolution","translated_internal_url":"","created_at":"2017-09-28T15:22:16.613-07:00","preview_url":null,"current_user_can_edit":null,"current_user_is_owner":null,"owner_id":13393868,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"document_type":"other","co_author_tags":[],"downloadable_attachments":[{"id":54703677,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/54703677/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"Beichler_-_Consciousness_Manifesto.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/54703677/download_file?st=MTczMzk1OTcwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"Consciousness_Manifesto_Physical_origins.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/54703677/Beichler_-_Consciousness_Manifesto-libre.pdf?1507850941=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DConsciousness_Manifesto_Physical_origins.pdf\u0026Expires=1731454229\u0026Signature=WfBj3gSaAO37BZS1deNrY8pGsgyoteXMsawqMiYfqv0cXOHv1RqDbmQ4HrD5cw6UXttwZU9BRM1ap7SiIUEA4GfljwvezGox~iV9Qi5t-KCXjsFTBDVvSXB9MA3BdE04GkOQ7lkqqYEj5GXQtJ0WzyvhLbLgmg6hb~VoBvtwepWNK1z0OwWNYAOleYImtLP5UUeJCWjYyrT0rXOnjB9nug0-TXzCuJejJ1Q6wN0P4ySqLu9d~avn5ywEANam3v5PVQ2NceyESLhZyivARXjaw243g2his25vCr~W4UBgiWWDxHJTobunZSWkBPd65GO66TfwP5WF1vz8gcNvJjQz5A__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"slug":"Consciousness_Manifesto_Physical_origins_of_consciousness_through_evolution_and_revolution","translated_slug":"","page_count":89,"language":"en","content_type":"Work","owner":{"id":13393868,"first_name":"James

Its two fundamental theories of reality, the quantum and relativity, for all intents and purposes seem incompatible as normally defined by their discreteness and continuity, respectively. This conundrum is not an unsolvable mystery as nearly everyone believes but only a simple challenge for scientists to overcome. When this problem is considered at a lower and more fundamental level of physical reality it disappears, yet scientists swear it is already being considered at the lowest level of fundamentality so they look for nothing more fundamental.

The time for a unified field theory that combines the best of both of these paradigms is at hand.\n\nA draft \"letter to the editor\" regarding the Hossenfelder McGaugh article can be found here at Academia at https://www.academia.edu/37129878/A_complete_unification_of_modern_physics_paradigms_A_necessary_reappraisal_of_the_state_of_theoretical_physics_in_light_of_new_observational_data.","owner":{"id":13393868,"first_name":"James (Jim)","middle_initials":"E","last_name":"Beichler","page_name":"JamesJimBeichler","domain_name":"webplus","created_at":"2014-06-29T10:57:17.966-07:00","display_name":"James (Jim) E Beichler","url":"https://webplus.academia.edu/JamesJimBeichler"},"attachments":[{"id":57256794,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/57256794/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"Predicted_speeds_verification.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/57256794/download_file?st=MTczMzk1OTcwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"Galactic_model_predicted_by_modified_gra.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/57256794/Predicted_speeds_verification-libre.pdf?1535413199=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DGalactic_model_predicted_by_modified_gra.pdf\u0026Expires=1733853417\u0026Signature=d19BD6Bq0J4hMDHDQ4iU~Rds63RywvoWmr8hofFHJ0RYlwIGyrI-1HawU~XuOt6fXt-rMiHg~R5zGDQZPJkLbOCKfr~2KW8iN1qfil5AQpuzXH8ylH7YBp90yd8-omu6dKwFuEh4nvgDUxjYdcbwmp5Gg45Ec9YbT4OhY4VO~~d43mhTLbi-Wtj2FdjFbCfxPiX01VKHMblebS90klWU3a7qBv4e7TQyoUSaiNukoIOs1cPbh9XK68CbW8h4J9GHHiDEkmy7-bahr3ZdE6fso8Nu9HbLZ~VIMaWUUbuhPCLm8BBL4PglkS0bQigRL2CzaYRHewqkjGsa0Ws8O1ylmA__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"research_interests":[{"id":318,"name":"Mathematical Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Mathematical_Physics"},{"id":498,"name":"Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Physics"},{"id":503,"name":"Theoretical Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Theoretical_Physics"},{"id":702,"name":"Observational Astronomy","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Observational_Astronomy"},{"id":718,"name":"Galaxy Formation And Evolution (Physics)","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Galaxy_Formation_And_Evolution_Physics_"},{"id":888,"name":"Cosmology (Physics)","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Cosmology_Physics_"},{"id":3504,"name":"General Relativity","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/General_Relativity"},{"id":3505,"name":"Relativistic cosmology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Relativistic_cosmology"},{"id":4564,"name":"Observational Cosmology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Observational_Cosmology"},{"id":4818,"name":"Dark Matter","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Dark_Matter"},{"id":6813,"name":"Quantum Cosmology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Quantum_Cosmology"},{"id":9138,"name":"Applied Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Applied_Physics"},{"id":11050,"name":"Galaxy Formation and Evolution","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Galaxy_Formation_and_Evolution"},{"id":16620,"name":"Dark Energy","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Dark_Energy"},{"id":24459,"name":"Galactic Dynamics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Galactic_Dynamics"},{"id":27234,"name":"Theoretical Cosmology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Theoretical_Cosmology"},{"id":47598,"name":"Cosmology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Cosmology"},{"id":47599,"name":"Astronomy","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Astronomy"},{"id":97563,"name":"Galaxy evolution","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Galaxy_evolution"},{"id":675517,"name":"Physics and Astronomy","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Physics_and_Astronomy"}],"urls":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData });

Thermodynamics is about disorder, entropy and inanimate matter in general, while biological evolution is all about order and the complexity of very special material systems that are, in general, inanimate. It should be evident across the whole spectrum of science that these two disciplines are related, but it seems that science goes to great lengths to demonstrate how they are essentially unrelated. That is because science has over limited and restricted both disciplines by definitions and ideas that are incomplete. Science regards only the chemical/mechanical/electrical processes of life as 'life' itself, while many people believe that 'life' itself is something that goes beyond the processes that maintain and sustain life. On the other hand, some scientists believe that 'life' is negentropic and defies the rules and principles of thermodynamics, but those who do not believe this go to great lengths to 'stretch' the limits of what constitutes a 'closed' system to accommodate, but not really explain, living organisms in any scientific manner. So, evolution and thermodynamics restrict themselves to the very thinly disguised Cartesian limits and boundaries between MIND and MATTER, which are not quite so evident elsewhere in science. Science mistakenly believes that it has passed far beyond those centuries' old Cartesian limits and influences, but it has not. Given this information and understanding how nature really works, it is easy to expand the laws of thermodynamics and apply them to evolution theory in such a way that a new 'evolution of physical systems' emerges of which biological evolution (whether Darwinian or modern genetic) is just one small but significant part.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="b7f6992785e5e257fcc88d1aa7c9f53f" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":55950726,"asset_id":36063422,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/55950726/download_file?st=MTczMzk1OTcwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="36063422"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span><span id="work-strip-rankings-button-container"></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="36063422"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 36063422; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=36063422]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=36063422]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 36063422; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='36063422']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span><span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 36063422, container: "", }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-f77ea15d77ce96025a6048a514272ad8becbad23c641fc2b3bd6e24ca6ff1932.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (true){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "b7f6992785e5e257fcc88d1aa7c9f53f" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=36063422]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":36063422,"title":"The Thermodynamics of Evolutionary (open) Systems","translated_title":"","metadata":{"abstract":"Preliminary revision for Chapter 6, 2nd ed., \"To Die For -The story of everything: Physics, spirituality, consciousness and afterlife\", which be published in its entirety in the next few months. \r\n\r\nAbstract: As strange as it may seem historically, thermodynamics and biological evolutionary emerged in science at the same time out of the same Newtonian context, seem for all intents and purposes to be intimately related to open another, yet they are complete physical opposites of one another.

Science regards only the chemical/mechanical/electrical processes of life as 'life' itself, while many people believe that 'life' itself is something that goes beyond the processes that maintain and sustain life. On the other hand, some scientists believe that 'life' is negentropic and defies the rules and principles of thermodynamics, but those who do not believe this go to great lengths to 'stretch' the limits of what constitutes a 'closed' system to accommodate, but not really explain, living organisms in any scientific manner. So, evolution and thermodynamics restrict themselves to the very thinly disguised Cartesian limits and boundaries between MIND and MATTER, which are not quite so evident elsewhere in science. Science mistakenly believes that it has passed far beyond those centuries' old Cartesian limits and influences, but it has not. Given this information and understanding how nature really works, it is easy to expand the laws of thermodynamics and apply them to evolution theory in such a way that a new 'evolution of physical systems' emerges of which biological evolution (whether Darwinian or modern genetic) is just one small but significant part.

Thermodynamics is about disorder, entropy and inanimate matter in general, while biological evolution is all about order and the complexity of very special material systems that are, in general, inanimate. It should be evident across the whole spectrum of science that these two disciplines are related, but it seems that science goes to great lengths to demonstrate how they are essentially unrelated.

scientists have come to believe that any true unification model in physics must include a concept of consciousness as well as a model for the mind that interprets the external physical/material world. And, that number is growing. This particular physical model does just that. In fact it goes much further. Since Beichler's single field theory (SFT) includes a physical model of the neural net and explains how Mind and Consciousness can emerge from the physics of living organisms, it assimilates more intuitive models such as Andrews' 0-D point Void which witnesses and co-creates higher-dimensional Riemannian geometrical realities as well as other more generalized physical models of consciousness to form a truly synergistic model of reality. In other words, physical reality and the consciousness that perceives and interprets that reality both come from the same source, they are co-created at the very beginning of the universe. A singular discrete 0-D point/twist Void emerged within the absolute spaceless-timeless Void of nothingness that preceded everything and through a logical sequence of events produced everything that now exists as our universe. This synergistic model goes well beyond the notion of Mind and Consciousness as mere perceivers and interpreters of the external material/physical world. It clearly demonstrates that the precursors to our experience of Consciousness are fundamental elements and active participants in creating the physical world that we perceive and scientifically interpret through the application of physics. Andrews' intuitive approach to consciousness science It is well known that intuitives are often the very people who intimately experience first-hand knowledge of consciousness. Their views of consciousness and the inner workings of the world in general greatly differ from those of ordinary people and the majority of scientists. Even the word 'intuition' has been looked down upon in science as recently as a few decades ago. Most scientists consider their own worldview above reproach, believing their insights are based upon acute observations of the external world around them. In general, scientists have historically looked down upon all types of intuitive knowledge and have obstinately refused to consider intuitive knowledge of consciousness and how it works in relation to the world as a whole. They view intuitive data with suspicion as no more than anecdotal evidence, without any scientific validity. Yet that evidence or data, anecdotal or not, can provide valid observations of consciousness and how consciousness works in the world at large. So to those few scientists willing to seriously consider information from intuitives, it can seem as though conservative scientists are wrong on this issue, as well as overly biased by acting completely in an unscientific manner within the broader meaning of science itself. Keeping this in mind, it is both interesting and informative to consider insights brought forward by Sperry Andrews whose undergraduate degree in science and ongoing study has been enhanced as a Near Death Experiencer (NDEr) from the age of four, over sixty years ago. Andrews has proposed a speculative bottom-up theory in physics of everything originating from nothing.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="094a4587a6be8d2af3c074215d376018" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":52768724,"asset_id":32593126,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/52768724/download_file?st=MTczMzk1OTcwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="32593126"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span><span id="work-strip-rankings-button-container"></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="32593126"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 32593126; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=32593126]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=32593126]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 32593126; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='32593126']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span><span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 32593126, container: "", }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-f77ea15d77ce96025a6048a514272ad8becbad23c641fc2b3bd6e24ca6ff1932.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (true){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "094a4587a6be8d2af3c074215d376018" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=32593126]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":32593126,"title":"Intuitive consciousness and the logic of single field physics: A conscious synergy of worldviews and theories","translated_title":"","metadata":{"abstract":"Many scientists have come to believe that any true unification model in physics must include a concept of consciousness as well as a model for the mind that interprets the external physical/material world.

And, that number is growing. This particular physical model does just that. In fact it goes much further. Since Beichler's single field model includes a physical model of the neural net and explains how Mind and Consciousness can emerge from the physics of living organisms, it assimilates more intuitive models such as Andrews' 0-D point Void which witnesses and co-creates higher-dimensional Riemannian geometrical realities as well as other more generalized physical models of consciousness to form a truly synergistic model of reality. This synergistic model goes well beyond the notion of Mind and Consciousness as mere perceivers and interpreters of the external material/physical world. It clearly demonstrates that the precursors to our experience of Consciousness are fundamental elements and active participants in creating the physical world that we perceive and scientifically interpret through the application of physics. Andrews' intuitive approach to consciousness science It is well known that intuitives are often the very people who intimately experience first-hand knowledge of consciousness. Their views of consciousness and the inner workings of the world in general greatly differ from those of ordinary people and especially scientists. Even the word 'intuition' has been looked down upon in science as recently as a few decades ago. Scientists consider their own worldview above reproach, believing their insights are based upon acute observations of the external world around them. In general, scientists have historically looked down upon all types of intuitive knowledge and have obstinately refused to consider intuitive knowledge of consciousness and how it works in relation to the world as a whole. They view intuitive data with suspicion as no more than anecdotal evidence, without any scientific validity. Yet that evidence or data, anecdotal or not, can provide valid observations of consciousness and how consciousness works in the world at large. So to those few scientists willing to seriously consider information from intuitives, it can seem as though conservative scientists are wrong on this issue, as well as overly biased by acting completely in an unscientific manner within the broader meaning of science itself. Keeping this in mind, it is both interesting and informative to consider insights brought forward by Sperry Andrews whose undergraduate degree in science has been enhanced as a Near Death Experiencer (NDEr) from the age of four, nearly sixty years ago. Andrews has proposed a speculative bottom-up theory of everything in physics originating from nothing, including how top-down theories, such as general relativity and quantum mechanics, might approximate Jim Beichler's single field theory as well as theoretical models that posit a consciousness space or universe. Andrews asks if the solution to this question may be found in Bernhard Riemann's original conception of space curvature, whereby an n-dimensional space is embedded in an n+1 dimensional manifold: i.e., all 3-D points are united at</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="27395fa206ed09cfd5d1ed22c242c36f" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":50713721,"asset_id":30247665,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/50713721/download_file?st=MTczMzk1OTcwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="30247665"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span><span id="work-strip-rankings-button-container"></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="30247665"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 30247665; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=30247665]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=30247665]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 30247665; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='30247665']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span><span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 30247665, container: "", }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-f77ea15d77ce96025a6048a514272ad8becbad23c641fc2b3bd6e24ca6ff1932.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (true){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "27395fa206ed09cfd5d1ed22c242c36f" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=30247665]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":30247665,"title":"Intuitive consciousness and the logic of single field physics: A conscious synergy of worldviews and theories","translated_title":"","metadata":{"abstract":"Many scientists have come to believe that any true unification model in physics must include a concept of consciousness as well as a model for the mind that interprets the external physical/material world.

development of our philosophical and scientific attitudes toward the external world. That problem deals with the dualistic way in which we parse the physical world itself through geometry. Geometry can be based upon two different elements: the extension-or metric element of Riemann and the point-element. Riemannian geometry can be fixed by expanding it to include the point-element, but even that is not enough. A further physical advance can be made by adopting the idea of the 0-D point Void, first developed intuitively by Sperry Andrews, but understanding the physical role of the 0-D point Void can only be realized by expanding that notion by adopting the physical concept of a discrete geometrical point/twist. It is only when a discrete 0-D point/ twist Void replaces the simple point-element missing in the Riemannian system of differential geometry of surfaces that post-modern physics fulfills its promise. Understanding the concept of a point-element, of course, is necessary to understand how the Riemannian geometry has been used in general relativity as well as how it can be expanded to unify all of modern physics, including quantum theory, under a single geometrical paradigm. Whether a scientist is considering the discrete point-particles of the Standard Model or the existence of point singularities in relativity theory, the concerns are exactly the same, which forces the concept of an individual 0-D discrete point void to the center of the unification process. In either case, the human Mind and Consciousness are perceiving and interpreting the physical/material world that science is attempting to theoretically describe so the ultimate question of Consciousness and how it interacts with the Mind/brain as well as our commonly experienced physical reality also needs to be answered within the context of the 0-D point/twist. In other words, this is the point (no pun intended) where scientific logic and non-scientific intuition come together to give a complete theoretical structure of our commonly shared physical reality. Toward that end, the only logical scientific precedent to understand anything like the 0-D point/twist in all of the history of science is only found in the notion of a tesseract, which dates from the late nineteenth century attempts to 'realize' the concept of a hyperspace in the absence of being able to detect them through astronomical observations so that a hyperspace geometry could be used to explain nature. The end product of understanding these concepts is a greater insight into how the single field theory explains a much wider range of physical phenomena than any single previous paradigm of physics.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="c2fb3bc48edc63b39620ed8271345626" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":49922884,"asset_id":27167490,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/49922884/download_file?st=MTczMzk1OTcwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="27167490"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span><span id="work-strip-rankings-button-container"></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="27167490"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 27167490; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=27167490]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=27167490]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 27167490; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='27167490']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span><span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 27167490, container: "", }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-f77ea15d77ce96025a6048a514272ad8becbad23c641fc2b3bd6e24ca6ff1932.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (true){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "c2fb3bc48edc63b39620ed8271345626" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=27167490]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":27167490,"title":"Quantized space-time structure: The 0-D point/twist as co-creator of the continuum and single field","translated_title":"","metadata":{"abstract":"A nagging problem has existed in the way we regard the local physical world around us and the non-local universe at large since the very beginning development of our philosophical and scientific attitudes toward the external world.

The end product of understanding these concepts is a greater insight into how the single field theory explains a much wider range of physical phenomena than any single previous paradigm of physics.","owner":{"id":13393868,"first_name":"James (Jim)","middle_initials":"E","last_name":"Beichler","page_name":"JamesJimBeichler","domain_name":"webplus","created_at":"2014-06-29T10:57:17.966-07:00","display_name":"James (Jim) E Beichler","url":"https://webplus.academia.edu/JamesJimBeichler"},"attachments":[{"id":49922884,"title":"","file_type":"docx","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/49922884/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"Beichler-Vigier_X-SFT.docx","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/49922884/download_file?st=MTczMzk1OTcwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"Quantized_space_time_structure_The_0_D_p.docx","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/49922884/Beichler-Vigier_X-SFT.docx?1477609866=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DQuantized_space_time_structure_The_0_D_p.docx\u0026Expires=1733853417\u0026Signature=QQSEZk2AG0XqRNNYYZ3RFTaGc6KUvd4M72USLAXLIm62dXt3R1O60LMfFQTPuGiNYVsbE9I7hCt5kNM5cnOwpxI0T3mC9IxevVUab3jSG7CYfpUdOtoOPi3EMruGpgxE1QffT1pcBB5zFj5xBlOrr7N2NtkUDsqkTw6VFZB~sGOXD~cy~JoFaV7StLy8v5Kaqh7z-y5WxJF6H5jvaQfbidqVKqeupOLKIL83OmvIPBBDnHyEGk~nn7Hb7vc~cgJLbd3wJb2KID~LHLyGm2C3AsM36sWtOyaqct4qcqTVBXg72~ynb0OatKYQJ6C6nieLgsvPdnwgFgGq7nzP-Qg9TQ__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"research_interests":[{"id":498,"name":"Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Physics"},{"id":503,"name":"Theoretical Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Theoretical_Physics"},{"id":518,"name":"Quantum Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Quantum_Physics"},{"id":709,"name":"Physical Cosmology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Physical_Cosmology"},{"id":822,"name":"Philosophy of Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Philosophy_of_Physics"},{"id":888,"name":"Cosmology (Physics)","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Cosmology_Physics_"},{"id":2578,"name":"Particle Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Particle_Physics"},{"id":3504,"name":"General Relativity","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/General_Relativity"},{"id":3505,"name":"Relativistic cosmology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Relativistic_cosmology"},{"id":4112,"name":"Theoretical astrophysics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Theoretical_astrophysics"},{"id":6813,"name":"Quantum Cosmology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Quantum_Cosmology"},{"id":10092,"name":"Quantum Field Theory","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Quantum_Field_Theory"},{"id":12114,"name":"Cosmic Inflation","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Cosmic_Inflation"},{"id":17961,"name":"Philosophy of Cosmology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Philosophy_of_Cosmology"},{"id":23179,"name":"Astrophysics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Astrophysics"},{"id":27234,"name":"Theoretical Cosmology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Theoretical_Cosmology"},{"id":31052,"name":"Philosophy of physics \u0026 cosmology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Philosophy_of_physics_and_cosmology"},{"id":47598,"name":"Cosmology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Cosmology"},{"id":65989,"name":"Grand Unification","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Grand_Unification"},{"id":66885,"name":"General Theory of Relativity","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/General_Theory_of_Relativity"},{"id":106140,"name":"Cosmological Models in General Relativity \u0026 Lyra's Geometry","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Cosmological_Models_in_General_Relativity_and_Lyras_Geometry"},{"id":145350,"name":"(ii) Unification of all fundamental forces both known and unknown (if any) in a non-conventional way of asking nature in fundamental level.","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/_ii_Unification_of_all_fundamental_forces_both_known_and_unknown_if_any_in_a_non-conventional_way"},{"id":258337,"name":"The Big Bang Theory","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/The_Big_Bang_Theory"},{"id":436473,"name":"Philosophy of Physics, Quantum Physics, Foundations of Quantum Mechanics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Philosophy_of_Physics_Quantum_Physics_Foundations_of_Quantum_Mechanics"},{"id":541872,"name":"Particle Physics,General and Special relativity,Quantum Theory","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Particle_Physics_General_and_Special_relativity_Quantum_Theory"}],"urls":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData });

telling.","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/31885264/There_can_be_only_one_Wandering_Toward_a_Goal_long_version_","translated_internal_url":"","created_at":"2017-03-15T18:23:46.554-07:00","preview_url":null,"current_user_can_edit":null,"current_user_is_owner":null,"owner_id":13393868,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"document_type":"paper","co_author_tags":[],"downloadable_attachments":[{"id":52170867,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/52170867/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"fQXi_2017_competition.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/52170867/download_file?st=MTczMzk1OTcwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"There_can_be_only_one_Wandering_Toward_a.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/52170867/fQXi_2017_competition-libre.pdf?1489628421=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DThere_can_be_only_one_Wandering_Toward_a.pdf\u0026Expires=1731454230\u0026Signature=BdTcTkzV1KeKOUbwIczMmCXgNmghUxav7H6NQLBlZQ2yyEtEcDegsKuy0M98S3Xq7eWyjjIyyyK6zmZ0e6pOeTr84ZxbDekw3cJbfSyEL9JfUibkkr~86z21-auIckUo5uuDNVF~l1kEXTlbw~xQapNY3IkBNd13fEkALAl9sHyU~PUswT-1RyXPFzOhxTv4oGzmn0oexCbG8Yuo0FEDU5cr6jJLCe6j6cv1P6rdc3tbKh-ZPZX2tvUKW1pGJoD7YBYjDHCQ-manyBn-NGyKJtadq5lCK5QlpLgJcyJ-aYf9fFHLv0NrBF88uuLAWg127t-TxgLrd4lDe-S18StgyA__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"slug":"There_can_be_only_one_Wandering_Toward_a_Goal_long_version_","translated_slug":"","page_count":28,"language":"en","content_type":"Work","owner":{"id":13393868,"first_name":"James

In other words, what is really significant in the previous history of science is a reflection of then current beliefs, attitudes and paradigms of science. Since the present dominant paradigm of physics is the quantum, the emphasis in the history of physics has been to de-emphasize or neglect any long term historical trends that lead to the alternative of relativity, continuity and the single unified field interpretation of physical reality. This does not reflect a conscious effort made by historians and scholars, but more of a realistic assessment of what is more interesting to the greater number of scientists at any given time. In other words there is no conspiracy to hide the historical truth. However, history can be subconsciously and unintentionally used to promote one scientific worldview as opposed to another.<br />Since the quantum theory is the dominant paradigm in physics, those issues that deal more directly with the opposing worldview of relativity have been unnecessarily downplayed and important parts of history have been ignored and nearly lost. In spite of the importance of general relativity there are far fewer, and the numbers are staggering, histories of the development and philosophy of relativity theory than there are of the development and philosophy of quantum theory. Scientific issues that pertain more to relativity than the quantum are also shortchanged in the historical research and publications that follow from that research. In particular, the emphasis on the historical development of the concepts of space and time which have been considered to be continuous rather than discrete throughout the history of science, have been neglected. Furthermore, since the quantum presents a completely new and original idea that is unique in history, there is no real call to lend it a more historical countenance.<br />Within physics itself, the quantum does not make any reference to the pre-history of individual events in its own realm of action and reaction. Each event is unique to a particular time (instant) and place (location) and that the notion of extended space and time are not absolutely necessary. However, what the longer history of science has well demonstrated is that the general concepts of space and time are essential and crucial to both the past and present development of science, a fact that quantum theory implies could not be true. Also, when the trends to develop and understand the physical nature of space are studied in depth and detail, the development of relativity and even general relativity look as if they were inevitable, a fact which seems at most to be at odds with the development of the quantum point-of-view of reality if not completely anti-quantum since relativity is based on continuity and the quantum is discrete. This view of nature cannot stand the test of time because nature is not two different things; it is one thing and thus necessitates only one fundamental theory to explain physical reality.

Science progresses toward this goal by making accurate observations of events and phenomena in nature and developing hypotheses and theories to explain the observations. In a very real sense, there is only one nature and one universe, so all observations are tied together such that science is one even though it may be split into many different academic disciplines.  So it should come as no surprise that the smallest and simplest things in nature are intimately related to the largest and most complex things in nature.  It is the goal of science not just to explain all of these individual things by the most accurate and simplest theory possible, but also to explain their intimate relationships. As different as they may seem, life, mind and consciousness are intimately related to the birth and death of stars and galaxies as well as the whole of the universe. The deepest mysteries of physics, Dark Matter and Dark Energy, are intimately related to the simplest forms of life imaginable as well as the most complex and elevated consciousness that could ever be conceived. However, science has a major problem in trying to understand such concepts. It is limited by the human consciousness that stores and interprets the observations and data regarding all of physical and material reality.

Their original notion of unification was based on relativity theory rather than the quantum. Unification in the guise of the quantum paradigm only emerged during the 1970s and has since overshadowed all other attempts to unify physics. Quantum theorists believe their work is more accurate, fundamental and even more practical than relativity even though there is little or no evidence to support that belief. For all intents and purposes, the two theories seem mutually incompatible, so the unification of physics has recently proceeded along the lines of an either/or strategy: Either the quantum theory is correct and relativity is wrong, or relativity is correct and the quantum theory wrong. In fact, quantum theorists have been very aggressively trying to replace the space-time curvature of general relativity with gravitons, quantum gravity, other mythical particles and equally speculative gimmicks for several decades and all of their attempts have been futile.

Had either side of the controversy just simplified their worldview and sought commonality between the two instead of concentrating on false made-up differences, unification could have been accomplished long ago. The point is, literally, that the discrete quantum, continuous relativity, basic physical geometry and classical physics all share one common characteristic – a paradoxical duality between a dimensionless point and an extended length in any dimension – and if the problem of unification is approached from an attempt to understand how this problem relates to each paradigm all of physics could be unified within a single new theoretical model. Unfortunately, there has traditionally been no method by which a three-dimensional space can be generated from dimensionless points, raising the question – how can dimensionless point particles be extended to account for the three-dimensional space in which the physical interactions they describe occur? This very question is basic to both the quantum theory and relativity, but neither has attempted to answer it although Einstein and others’ attempts to develop classical unified field theories have come closest to the answer.

Religion has far more problems with science than science has with religion. These two disciplines have coexisted for several centuries, at least since the scientific revolution in the seventeenth century, without either overcoming the other or thus winning the war. So it would seem that they are both necessary elements of the human endeavor as well as civilization and society as a whole. However, there is a fairly recent movement to bring science and religion together by finding a common ground for spirituality within science. Spirituality is usually equated to religion, but it really need not be tied inexorably and only to religion. Spirituality can be studied in a more general context outside of the traditional religions and within the context of science.

Science had always been extremely objective and rigid. The word intuition was not well accepted as a way of conducting or thinking about science. W.I.B. Beveridge went against the grain and wrote a book titled The Art of Scientific Investigation in 1950 that began to elevate science to an art form based on intuition as much as a strictly philosophical endeavor based on logic. Yet by the early 1960s, a new television program called Star Trek still epitomized science as a completely logical philosophical study in the person of a character named Spock, the ultimate scientist, totally devoid of anything to do with emotion, spirituality, mystical thought and intuition. Yet cultural and scientific thought had begun to loosen and change. The space program of the 1960s opened our imaginations to new possibilities while political situations in China and the Far East, including a war in Vietnam, opened the door in western culture to new ways of thought and brought home new ideas from the Far East, especially to America. <br />These were accompanied by philosophical changes in science itself. Einstein had died in 1955 and with his death a whole line of research that tried to unify the quantum and relativity all but ended. Yet new advances in quantum theory changed physicists’ perspectives on the concept of unification and philosophical changes in quantum theory itself started to appear. The idea that consciousness collapses the wave function and creates reality began to take hold and the twin concepts of mind and consciousness, with all of their non-logical aspects, began to reappear in science as something important that had to be accounted for. Words like holistic and holism began to surface in science and science began to reshape itself in a form not quite as logically reductionist as it had been before. By 1975, several books comparing science to mystical thought had appeared, but none was a popular as Fritjof Capra’s "The Tao of Physics", except perhaps Lawrence LeShan’s "The Medium, the Mystic and the Physicist", both of which exposed scientists and non-scientists alike to new ways of thinking. And science has not been the same since. <br />This particular essay was written for a 1977 class at San Francisco State University, Beyond the Mechanistic World View, taught by Capra. The assignment was to make comparisons in other academic disciplines similar to that made by Capra between modern physics and eastern mysticism. Having just returned to America from a two and a half year trip around the world, I was interested in languages and how they represented differences in human thought. So I made a comparison between the development of language in a person and how language affected worldview, mysticism and modern physics, which has influenced the development of my own worldview in science ever since. This paper represents a slight revision of the original paper, but only in the wording and not the original content or arguments made within the text.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="3a738eb2577a1e679549fe024eb7a1d3" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":38484254,"asset_id":14947109,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/38484254/download_file?st=MTczMzk1OTcwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="14947109"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span><span id="work-strip-rankings-button-container"></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="14947109"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 14947109; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=14947109]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=14947109]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 14947109; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='14947109']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span><span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 14947109, container: "", }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-f77ea15d77ce96025a6048a514272ad8becbad23c641fc2b3bd6e24ca6ff1932.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (true){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "3a738eb2577a1e679549fe024eb7a1d3" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=14947109]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":14947109,"title":"Dualism of Mind in Language, Mysticism and Modern Physics","translated_title":"","metadata":{"abstract":"During the early 1970s, science began to change as did the cultural outlook in America and the west.

class="js-work-more-abstract-untruncated hidden">According to the commonly held simplistic view of the history of science, Isaac Newton’s concept of absolute space was accepted without change until replaced by Albert Einstein’s special and general theories of relativity. Ernst Mach had successfully challenged the concept of an absolute space in the 1870s for the first time, while the concept of relative space slowly eroded the foundations of Newtonian absolute space during the final decades of the nineteenth century. Speculations were made by William K. Clifford and Bernhard Riemann that anticipated Einstein’s relativity, but neither amounted to much and had little or no influence on the science of the day. However, this common historical point of view is wrong as well as misleading, which calls into account what really happened during the Second Scientific Revolution. Riemann and Clifford did not just anticipate Einstein’s general relativity. Riemann suggested a specific mathematical program for changing the scientific concept of absolute space.  This change represented a great advance over Newton’s concept of physical space without detracting from the rising influence of relative space in physics in the late nineteenth century. Riemann proposed that physical space had an infinitesimal structure that was quite possibly different from that expected by the physical investigation of macroscopic geometries and only experiment could verify which of several geometries was true. In this respect, he suggested that absolute space had real physical properties that should be studied in physics.

He died the same year Einstein was born. His theory accounted for both electromagnetism and gravity more than a century before theories of everything (TOEs) became popular in science. Yet he was talking about the same thing, although he did not use the term quantum to describe the microscopic world of physics. Instead he developed a new point-based geometry of biquaternions and twists to explain curved space and physical phenomena. As early as 1870, Clifford stated that matter was merely curved space and the motion of matter was no more than ripples or waves across that curvature. This was almost a century before Einstein developed the general theory of relativity which makes the same claim. But Clifford thought in grander terms and meant all types of motion while Einstein only used the concept of space-time curvature to explain gravitational motion. Clifford was a philosopher, mathematician and physicist who is well remembered in history for his purely mathematical accomplishments, but equally well forgotten for his greatest accomplishments in the physical application of his mathematical systems. His “space-theory of matter” is considered no more than an “untenable” speculation that pre-dated Einstein’s later discovery. Paradoxically, the closer present science comes to unifying the quantum and relativity, the closer it comes to realizing some of Clifford’s original concepts regarding the curvature of space.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="36632aa7aa595b1302110be9fa17aa7a" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":34595086,"asset_id":8157336,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/34595086/download_file?st=MTczMzk1OTcwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="8157336"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span><span id="work-strip-rankings-button-container"></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="8157336"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 8157336; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=8157336]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=8157336]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 8157336; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='8157336']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span><span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 8157336, container: "", }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-f77ea15d77ce96025a6048a514272ad8becbad23c641fc2b3bd6e24ca6ff1932.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (true){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "36632aa7aa595b1302110be9fa17aa7a" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=8157336]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":8157336,"title":"Twist and Shout!

It is a thinking person’s science fiction story as well as a teaching experience. The single truth of nature is that everything evolves or dies away if the niche that nature has provided for it fills without its evolving beyond that niche. In some cases, different evolutionary trends come together and a revolution occurs as they leap forward together and something totally new emerges. That is what this book is about. The storyline is based upon an actual scientific prediction of that the human species is about to undergo its next step in evolution. That step will coincide with the coming scientific revolution because science has just about run its course with the brain structure and the mind that the human species has been given thus far to work with.  And yet this is still not enough because we are still undergoing a technological and economic revolution based on the computer as well as a cultural evolution based on overpopulation of our home planet and advances in transportation, and communication and biological technologies. The story takes place about thirty years in the future when all of these advances have come to a collective tipping point. Humans live in a dystopian society run by a single world gov, although there are still many factions representing old national and cultural groups within the world gov. Quite simply, society is quite near the breaking point as the gov social experiment is failing. Something must happen, something very chaotic, before a new level of consciousness can be reached since this step in evolution will be consciousness driven. Something terrible does happen in the form of an invasion of sorts. Most humans have migrated to the megalopolises and mega-cities since all farming and food production is done at the corporation and factory levels. Small farms and medium sized cities have died throughout the world, but a small and persistent minority of people still lives independently in towns and smaller cities. They are only connected to the rest of the world through computer wifi since the only land lines for communication are run by the gov and mil. These people represent only a few percent of the total population, but that small percentage belies the fact that these people have not succumbed to the new cultural and societal experiments of the world government. These people are not only independent but consciously more evolved than most of their brethren in the mega-population centers where life is regimented and strictly controlled by the world gov. When the crisis hits and world war becomes a reality the smaller cities and towns are the last to go, but a small group of children and young people set out across a mountain range in the Rockies when their charismatic leader is killed. They only seek to get as far away from the unknown enemy as possible and lick their wounds, but learn that getting away and surviving do not go together as they discover who the real enemy is. They then accept a destiny over which they seem to have no control and choose to head across the mountains to the nearest population center only to find that they have been followed into the mountains and their destination is on the verge of falling to the enemy. So they choose to fight for their existence, the existence of humanity and the existence of all life on the earth.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="b2e8d255ad520af982b8f52706c11c16" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":34585206,"asset_id":8144900,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/34585206/download_file?st=MTczMzk1OTcwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="8144900"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span><span id="work-strip-rankings-button-container"></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="8144900"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 8144900; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=8144900]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=8144900]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 8144900; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='8144900']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span><span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 8144900, container: "", }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-f77ea15d77ce96025a6048a514272ad8becbad23c641fc2b3bd6e24ca6ff1932.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (true){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "b2e8d255ad520af982b8f52706c11c16" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=8144900]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":8144900,"title":"EVO: The next step","translated_title":"","metadata":{"abstract":"Evo is a science fiction novel, but it is also far more than just that.

So they choose to fight for their existence, the existence of humanity and the existence of all life on the earth.\r\n","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/8144900/EVO_The_next_step","translated_internal_url":"","created_at":"2014-08-31T08:25:48.617-07:00","preview_url":null,"current_user_can_edit":null,"current_user_is_owner":null,"owner_id":13393868,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"document_type":"book","co_author_tags":[],"downloadable_attachments":[{"id":34585206,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/34585206/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"Description_of_Evo.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/34585206/download_file?st=MTczMzk1OTcwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"EVO_The_next_step.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/34585206/Description_of_Evo-libre.pdf?1409498530=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DEVO_The_next_step.pdf\u0026Expires=1731454231\u0026Signature=Pqv07u0v0JiYX2I-oFrNnaSsx8wxg9baoo32oIxxUix9LlI0JwDSddnhFtTtPCUKCsHBc07Cu8HKuk7vaVSzFM1J5w2R28laSBKrmB2NJ2M1Z-o08Hx17nAo66~ulZYJGM3uP1vppxpyL3abBJRUXIuhjB1SBuVmDIZW2eu0owD0ykx90mnKXWQxcimuj6h0RzFfBJxj4HaK~G7WG9mvnPU-yqJhhS174UXMCQbgbmyJFwCaPKPzxjLcGDM9xVAbaWLPAJJjXXUU6X5E95xh0szutwLnBZxUexQGQ6A3BVUGQOGcuVCAMrbKBNnZPh64tS7ukm3AQqR1DgP4QKknHQ__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"slug":"EVO_The_next_step","translated_slug":"","page_count":40,"language":"en","content_type":"Work","owner":{"id":13393868,"first_name":"James (Jim)","middle_initials":"E","last_name":"Beichler","page_name":"JamesJimBeichler","domain_name":"webplus","created_at":"2014-06-29T10:57:17.966-07:00","display_name":"James (Jim) E Beichler","url":"https://webplus.academia.edu/JamesJimBeichler","email":"QWllTFVrQmpzUFpMZUZSaGpzc0NmNDJaK3hJYU90ZXNTZHFQWFdndmE5TT0tLUNOZUFNckZlWmlEVlBwZytQMDBCK1E9PQ==--8a4535bdad4debafd885a8ba0714026a623f5cd7"},"attachments":[{"id":34585206,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/34585206/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"Description_of_Evo.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/34585206/download_file?st=MTczMzk1OTcwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"EVO_The_next_step.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/34585206/Description_of_Evo-libre.pdf?1409498530=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DEVO_The_next_step.pdf\u0026Expires=1731454231\u0026Signature=Pqv07u0v0JiYX2I-oFrNnaSsx8wxg9baoo32oIxxUix9LlI0JwDSddnhFtTtPCUKCsHBc07Cu8HKuk7vaVSzFM1J5w2R28laSBKrmB2NJ2M1Z-o08Hx17nAo66~ulZYJGM3uP1vppxpyL3abBJRUXIuhjB1SBuVmDIZW2eu0owD0ykx90mnKXWQxcimuj6h0RzFfBJxj4HaK~G7WG9mvnPU-yqJhhS174UXMCQbgbmyJFwCaPKPzxjLcGDM9xVAbaWLPAJJjXXUU6X5E95xh0szutwLnBZxUexQGQ6A3BVUGQOGcuVCAMrbKBNnZPh64tS7ukm3AQqR1DgP4QKknHQ__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"research_interests":[{"id":196,"name":"Future Studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Future_Studies"},{"id":772,"name":"Human Evolution","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Human_Evolution"},{"id":7968,"name":"Prediction","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Prediction"},{"id":8694,"name":"Science Fiction","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Science_Fiction"},{"id":17581,"name":"Futures Studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Futures_Studies"},{"id":20667,"name":"Science Fiction and Fantasy","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Science_Fiction_and_Fantasy"},{"id":36260,"name":"Futures Studies and Foresight","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Futures_Studies_and_Foresight"},{"id":46519,"name":"Future","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Future"},{"id":77182,"name":"Science-Fiction","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Science-Fiction"},{"id":81588,"name":"Science Fiction Studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Science_Fiction_Studies"},{"id":156139,"name":"Life Prediction","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Life_Prediction"}],"urls":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData });

Since their inception these two theoretical giants have advanced science and society far beyond anything that their originators could have even dreamed up, but in a sense they seem to be progressing in different directions and are regarded mutually incompatible.

The first, Hyperspace, deals with the original Kaluza theory in all of its aspects and incarnations up until the 1960s. After the 1960s the idea of unification was adopted by quantum theoreticians based on their belief that the quantum is more fundamental than relative space-time. However, since the 1980s Klein’s adaptation of Kaluza’s theory has been used to unify physics under the quantum banner as has the purely quantum theory Standard Model. Yet both of these quantum attempts have fundamental problems that can only be solved by returning to Kaluza’s original theory as modified by Einstein and Bergmann in the 1930s. So the second part of the book, Continuum, tells the rest of the story and offers a new theory, a five-dimensional single field theory, the merges the best of both paradigms together. By merging the two paradigms instead of replacing one by the other, single field theory preserves all of the many successes of both theories.

body. Whole religions, individual philosophers, scholars of all types, scientists and ordinary people have all tried to answer this question, so far without any verifiable success.

History has a very unique and special role to play in consciousness studies in that it can be an active player in the development of a theory of consciousness rather than a passive recorder of the details of that development. According to the original Cartesian separation of mind and matter, any questions concerning life, mind and consciousness were relegated to religion. So Newtonian science was not at first concerned with consciousness and did not develop any conceptual models of life, mind or consciousness. However, Newtonian physics became so successful by the middle of the nineteenth century that concepts of mind and consciousness were again considered fair game for scientific inquiry. This expansion of the boundaries of science led to the development of psychology as the new science of mind just as the Second Scientific Revolution in physics unfolded. Unfortunately, science was not yet ready to deal directly with mind and consciousness, so a positivistic compromise overwhelmed the new science of psychology: Behaviorism, rather than consciousness, then became the basic theory and guiding principle for psychology. Psychology and science literally lost consciousness after 1913 and did not begin to regain consciousness for several decades. By the 1970s, consciousness had become so relevant to scientific speculations on the ultimate nature of physical reality that consciousness could no longer be ignored and a renewed scientific interest in the subject of consciousness emerged. The new ideas of consciousness that emerged were interdisciplinary and concerned many different academic disciplines, both inside and outside of science. Yet in the new quest for a theory of consciousness, physics has taken a lead. The interest of physicists in consciousness coincides with other problems in physics that seem to be leading to a new Scientific Revolution out of which a definition and theory of consciousness should emerge. Quite simply, the recent advances in consciousness studies are revolutionary. Consciousness has become so important in science that any physical theory of reality that scientists develop must consider the role of consciousness in reality. The history of our attitudes toward consciousness can act as a guide to identify specific properties of consciousness as well as identify new problems in how science interprets consciousness and its role in physical reality.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="0fa6954ab19541dda5d9971c9668b9be" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":53105947,"asset_id":32986981,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/53105947/download_file?st=MTczMzk1OTcwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="32986981"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span><span id="work-strip-rankings-button-container"></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="32986981"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 32986981; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=32986981]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=32986981]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 32986981; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='32986981']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span><span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 32986981, container: "", }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-f77ea15d77ce96025a6048a514272ad8becbad23c641fc2b3bd6e24ca6ff1932.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (true){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "0fa6954ab19541dda5d9971c9668b9be" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=32986981]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":32986981,"title":"Historical Context of Consciousness Studies (poster)","translated_title":"","metadata":{"abstract":"The consciousness studies movement needs to be placed within its proper historical context. \u000bHistory has a very unique and special role to play in consciousness studies in that it can be an \u000bactive player in the development of a theory of consciousness rather than a passive recorder of \u000bthe details of that development.

As a result, the physical aspects and properties of the gravitational field were never fully explored or exploited and science went through several decades of denial concerning the relevance of general relativity and its physical implications. The only small victory that relativity theory could claim before the 1960s was in cosmology with the expanding universe. The victory was small because the expanding universe was far from the everyday needs of a science more concerned with the atom and the nucleus. Under these circumstances, the theory of relativity had no practical applications in the everyday real world, so its theoretical implications were largely ignored. However, the 1970s brought something of a resurgence of good fortunes and everyday relevance for relativity theory and quantum theorists finally accepted the possibility that unification was the primary goal of physics, albeit a unification based upon the quantum concept of discrete particles rather than the Einsteinian concept of field continuity: According to quantum field theory, the gravity field could be reduced to an exchange of gravitons. But what at first seemed a resurgence of general relativity under the quantum paradigm in the 1970s has slowly evolved into a surge of physical relevance resulting in the emergence of general relativity as a dominating field of research in physics. And the story does not end there. The recent discoveries of Dark Matter and Dark Energy are about to push physics and relativity theory into a Third Scientific Revolution in which a unification with the quantum will be made on relativity’s terms. The quantum will not emerge out of the mathematics as a constraint on the continuous field as Einstein had hoped, but it will emerge as a field constant that limits the continuous field as described by general relativity.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="e8d91089e93fd6f9b305da09088b0247" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":52551857,"asset_id":32343068,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/52551857/download_file?st=MTczMzk1OTcwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="32343068"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span><span id="work-strip-rankings-button-container"></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="32343068"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 32343068; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=32343068]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=32343068]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 32343068; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='32343068']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span><span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 32343068, container: "", }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-f77ea15d77ce96025a6048a514272ad8becbad23c641fc2b3bd6e24ca6ff1932.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (true){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "e8d91089e93fd6f9b305da09088b0247" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=32343068]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":32343068,"title":"Relativity, the Surge and a Scientific Revolution","translated_title":"","metadata":{"abstract":"Quantum theory emerged the victor of the last Scientific Revolution even though relativity theory had a more progressive view of reality to offer science.

However, one special class of phenomena is generally considered unscientific, i.e., unworthy of scientific investigation, by the majority of scientists. Science generally ignores any phenomenon associated with the possibility of an afterlife, which amounts to a scientific bias against this possibility.

This formula can also be quantized and relativized and thus leads to a complete unification of physics that once again establish the fundamental nature of relativity. \n\nKeywords: galactic rotation problem, halo, Dark Matter, CDM, HDM, Dark Energy, General Relativity, Kaluza, Klein, five-dimensional, fourth dimension, space-time, Einstein, positive curvature, extrinsic curvature","owner":{"id":13393868,"first_name":"James (Jim)","middle_initials":"E","last_name":"Beichler","page_name":"JamesJimBeichler","domain_name":"webplus","created_at":"2014-06-29T10:57:17.966-07:00","display_name":"James (Jim) E Beichler","url":"https://webplus.academia.edu/JamesJimBeichler"},"attachments":[{"id":52500598,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/52500598/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"2008_PIRT_fundamental.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/52500598/download_file?st=MTczMzk1OTcwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"The_Fundamental_Nature_of_Relativity.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/52500598/2008_PIRT_fundamental-libre.pdf?1491438009=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DThe_Fundamental_Nature_of_Relativity.pdf\u0026Expires=1733853419\u0026Signature=QUTl3Arcfhfgf~FTW2W5h4ebolAXbCsBJCt5SFPISMQka3PS0eaTmc5ti1FvtR86iHevV2mG4NyQlnFT7ULRcdNyte-m1BacoeKTDMPs87XKrUehcIljSNMAeG6hFKrSoTcpSprSWSbgoH3P--IBTaLtWoHX3RwMUIHHtMFlwlA7wEZvCUnLccMam05-OqD6QKDx4-ORz7SnZ7dBpX7s7kLf0PvqYdDzTE7xqjAapb7P0sa2rBm9E3v6MkkkFlwkvWMe0~CmA9LCItMU7dzkIFfwylaeRWqgb1eVOk7hvDI2QuSpPrK77MO2GlDX0fJ1OcZtFaEo~AEZr31ZsCN5fA__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"research_interests":[{"id":498,"name":"Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Physics"},{"id":503,"name":"Theoretical Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Theoretical_Physics"},{"id":888,"name":"Cosmology (Physics)","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Cosmology_Physics_"},{"id":3504,"name":"General Relativity","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/General_Relativity"},{"id":4818,"name":"Dark Matter","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Dark_Matter"},{"id":10959,"name":"Continuum Mechanics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Continuum_Mechanics"},{"id":16620,"name":"Dark Energy","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Dark_Energy"},{"id":21704,"name":"Space and Time (Philosophy)","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Space_and_Time_Philosophy_"},{"id":65678,"name":"Philosophy of Mind, Space and Time","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Philosophy_of_Mind_Space_and_Time"},{"id":66885,"name":"General Theory of Relativity","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/General_Theory_of_Relativity"},{"id":82659,"name":"Space-time","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Space-time"},{"id":106140,"name":"Cosmological Models in General Relativity \u0026 Lyra's Geometry","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Cosmological_Models_in_General_Relativity_and_Lyras_Geometry"},{"id":139678,"name":"Fourth Dimension","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Fourth_Dimension"},{"id":142804,"name":"Einstein's General Theory of Relativity","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Einsteins_General_Theory_of_Relativity"},{"id":178413,"name":"Astronomy \u0026 Astrophysics, High Energy Astrophysics, General Theory of Relativity","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Astronomy_and_Astrophysics_High_Energy_Astrophysics_General_Theory_of_Relativity"},{"id":244544,"name":"Einstein's special and general theories of relativity, modern physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Einsteins_special_and_general_theories_of_relativity_modern_physics"},{"id":382726,"name":"Dark Matter and Dark Energy","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Dark_Matter_and_Dark_Energy"},{"id":398157,"name":"Warm Dark Matter","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Warm_Dark_Matter"},{"id":641589,"name":"Five-dimensional Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Five-dimensional_Physics"},{"id":759772,"name":"Dark Matter and Rotation Curves","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Dark_Matter_and_Rotation_Curves"},{"id":1035187,"name":"The Dark Matter \u0026 Dark Energy Problems","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/The_Dark_Matter_and_Dark_Energy_Problems-1"}],"urls":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData });

Developing a mental picture of the afterlife seems quite natural to us and seems be as old as humankind, more than likely predating even the earliest development of religions. However, religions have taken the initiative in dictating our most commonly held views of the afterlife over the past few thousand years even though there is no hard and fast rule stating that only religions have the right to develop views of the afterlife to the exclusion of all other forms of human knowledge.  In fact, a concept of the afterlife is more fundamental to religions as a whole than belief in a Supreme Being, God or gods. Some of religion’s grasp on concepts of the afterlife have recently slipped as moviemakers have taken the initiative in representing how we picture the afterlife. On the other hand, science has been conspicuously absent from this whole process even though science has developed more and more complex paradigms about life, mind and consciousness, just those concepts which would seem important with regard to any possible afterlife.

At each stage of this evolutionary process, changes in the scientific attitude toward the paranormal coincide with changes in the evolution of attitudes in normal science as well as changes in religious attitude.","owner":{"id":13393868,"first_name":"James (Jim)","middle_initials":"E","last_name":"Beichler","page_name":"JamesJimBeichler","domain_name":"webplus","created_at":"2014-06-29T10:57:17.966-07:00","display_name":"James (Jim) E Beichler","url":"https://webplus.academia.edu/JamesJimBeichler"},"attachments":[{"id":52437327,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/52437327/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"2003_slideshow-ARPR-Spiritaulism_to_Spirituality.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/52437327/download_file?st=MTczMzk1OTcwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"From_Spiritualism_to_Spirituality_The_sc.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/52437327/2003_slideshow-ARPR-Spiritaulism_to_Spirituality-libre.pdf?1491172722=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DFrom_Spiritualism_to_Spirituality_The_sc.pdf\u0026Expires=1733853419\u0026Signature=KyC0hDwwCYOQDb4t-lKsNcgl2JBM~AXzD10NsIEu5~N0NWRjLYiMXOOjdIK9oDQn74sctisfrQq8ZyL03-HiT5rLtgcELTzIaygXOVQM81OwNswdsgj~9F3PfE7ORvWYbexWoIqVCnM~2NaI2uEc5T1eSgzip60qcQ1R1XZDxYN2aBmW8-wf-Bhlgue5Kgmqvv06vWmnZV7AurHqnsPXDKc7LPTSz7-KLZOqk3RzFIkkEnlBgl1KzcYSqHPSIE6gIHXB73LtCGg1pZj8fq5IRrRFBrsbe-SqAU9ArojezhhbvotAzs9mMhM3PgsUFz2zym4XTPD2~c7ESp5CGPPJGw__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"research_interests":[{"id":498,"name":"Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Physics"},{"id":804,"name":"Metaphysics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Metaphysics"},{"id":3344,"name":"Metaphysics of Consciousness","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Metaphysics_of_Consciousness"},{"id":3723,"name":"History of Science","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/History_of_Science"},{"id":3783,"name":"Contemporary Spirituality","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Contemporary_Spirituality"},{"id":3815,"name":"Spirituality","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Spirituality"},{"id":8259,"name":"History and Philosophy of Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/History_and_Philosophy_of_Physics"},{"id":8703,"name":"Science and Spirituality","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Science_and_Spirituality"},{"id":10148,"name":"Metaphysics of Mind","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Metaphysics_of_Mind"},{"id":12553,"name":"History of Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/History_of_Physics"}],"urls":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="32208008"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" href="https://www.academia.edu/32208008/Apparitions_R_Us_Far_more_than_a_ghost_of_a_chance"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of Apparitions 'R Us: Far more than a ghost of a chance" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://attachments.academia-assets.com/52437480/thumbnails/1.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/32208008/Apparitions_R_Us_Far_more_than_a_ghost_of_a_chance">Apparitions 'R Us: Far more than a ghost of a chance</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">Abstract: Ghosts and apparitions come in many different forms and their existence has been report...</span><a class="js-work-more-abstract" data-broccoli-component="work_strip.more_abstract" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-more-abstract" href="javascript:;"><span> more </span><span><i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></span></a><span class="js-work-more-abstract-untruncated hidden">Abstract: Ghosts and apparitions come in many different forms and their existence has been reported for as long as humans have been around.

Although my theoretical work in physics is based on the reality of a fourth spatial dimension, this workshop is independent of my theoretical work: The knowledge imparted in this workshop will be helpful to anyone who wishes to understand any physical theories based on higher-dimensional realities as well as expand an individual’s own consciousness. This workshop deals directly with the intuitive geometrical notions that we all use to perceive our commonly sensed world. Questions such as ‘What is the concept of space’, ‘Why only three dimensions’, ‘Why or why not more dimensions’, and ‘What is dimension?’ are considered. Different simple methods of how to visualize a fourth spatial dimension and how they can be used as forms of meditation are also discussed. The first method dates back to the 1880s, when it was developed by Hinton, but newer methods use other visualization techniques. The ability to visualize the next higher dimension is enlightening experience if not the next step in the ongoing evolution of human consciousness, while just trying to do so expands an individual’s consciousness. Furthermore, if physical theories that use a higher dimension of space to explain survival (Beichler, Zoellner and others) are accurate, then the conscious visualization of the fourth dimension of space will help prepare each of us for what comes when our material bodies die. This knowledge should familiarize us with the local environment ‘where’ we could end up when we die.

This conclusion is based upon a consideration of the Cartesian Paradox of mind and matter, which sets the boundaries between the scientific and non-scientific parts of our perceived world. Study and belief in the paranormal is not now and has never been either a popular fad or a trendy fashion.

Moreover, The human race as a whole has shown a keen interest in the prospect of communicating with its dead ancestors, relatives and friends even though mediumship has been at odds with science and the scientific worldview ever since science first began to eradicate the hold of superstition on human thought, so the human interest in communication with the dead poses a paradox for our modern society which cherishes and favors its scientific ideals.

The logical conclusion then is that the scientific community will never accept mediumship until life is defined and it is PROVEN that some physical portion of ‘life’ survives the death of the living body.","owner":{"id":13393868,"first_name":"James (Jim)","middle_initials":"E","last_name":"Beichler","page_name":"JamesJimBeichler","domain_name":"webplus","created_at":"2014-06-29T10:57:17.966-07:00","display_name":"James (Jim) E Beichler","url":"https://webplus.academia.edu/JamesJimBeichler"},"attachments":[{"id":40309189,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/40309189/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"2002_slideshow-ARPR-Communcation.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/40309189/download_file?st=MTczMzk1OTcwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"The_Relationship_Between_Physics_Death_a.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/40309189/2002_slideshow-ARPR-Communcation.pdf?1448318415=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DThe_Relationship_Between_Physics_Death_a.pdf\u0026Expires=1733853419\u0026Signature=OAhAyd5weVKXUNFoRdwUyPJEcCC3m3g4ZEsKAcDjZUcssJLE1Y1xZYI0vcYjCWqBh~aUxuWq2en0UXv-Q~0Ra4PrOQihQMZplckIv07FgeDNjWaP-dzyMFt6txUICLmHMn9jneBxajJydwODnVySdGdW4tz8IlBMU2~AVxtk8GtWUBJhfVBFdAPmfu0WbReqMXGbPardhhjc8RUNALnpsAQLYWOLmHdXxeOA2z~Vje0n-1E1fNCO~FZ9RjJfSyg37sc8pFoRx161k47h79kbFbYEzZAWhBocRpdVnZ1GucAyXJz6g-Q~2XbgS05YWQtHtZm6W5Dv7dQPN6aOMSXnBQ__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"research_interests":[{"id":241,"name":"Parapsychology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Parapsychology"},{"id":10022,"name":"Paranormal","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Paranormal"},{"id":16673,"name":"History of psychical research and parapsychology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/History_of_psychical_research_and_parapsychology"},{"id":45890,"name":"Scientific Parapsychology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Scientific_Parapsychology"},{"id":46048,"name":"Spirit mediumship","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Spirit_mediumship"},{"id":59832,"name":"Parapsychology, Anthropology, Mediumship, Phenomenology, Spiritualism, Paranormal, Supernatural, Folklore, Religion, Sociology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Parapsychology_Anthropology_Mediumship_Phenomenology_Spiritualism_Paranormal_Supernatural_Fol"},{"id":156487,"name":"Paranormal Phenomena","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Paranormal_Phenomena"},{"id":182305,"name":"Mediumship","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Mediumship"},{"id":446069,"name":"Paraphysics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Paraphysics"}],"urls":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="18881891"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" href="https://www.academia.edu/18881891/The_Biofield_Life_as_a_hyper_dimensional_quantity_2004_USPA_"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of The Biofield: Life as a hyper-dimensional quantity (2004-USPA)" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://attachments.academia-assets.com/40308024/thumbnails/1.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/18881891/The_Biofield_Life_as_a_hyper_dimensional_quantity_2004_USPA_">The Biofield: Life as a hyper-dimensional quantity (2004-USPA)</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">Annual Meeting of the U.S. Psychotronics Association, 16 to 18 July 2004, Columbus, OH Abstract:...</span><a class="js-work-more-abstract" data-broccoli-component="work_strip.more_abstract" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-more-abstract" href="javascript:;"><span> more </span><span><i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></span></a><span class="js-work-more-abstract-untruncated hidden">Annual Meeting of the U.S. Psychotronics Association, 16 to 18 July 2004, Columbus, OH<br /><br />Abstract: Life has been considered “something extra” by many scholars and academics since at least the earliest days of the Scientific Revolution, something more than the sum of the mechanical (Newtonian) parts of a living body or organism.

Only with a true understanding of the physical nature of the quantum will the unification of the quantum and relativity ever become a reality.\n\nKeywords: Quantum, change, unification, space-time, relativity, hidden variables, five-dimensional, Einstein, Kaluza, Clifford\n","owner":{"id":13393868,"first_name":"James (Jim)","middle_initials":"E","last_name":"Beichler","page_name":"JamesJimBeichler","domain_name":"webplus","created_at":"2014-06-29T10:57:17.966-07:00","display_name":"James (Jim) E Beichler","url":"https://webplus.academia.edu/JamesJimBeichler"},"attachments":[{"id":39405209,"title":"","file_type":"pptx","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/39405209/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"The_tie_that_binds.pptx","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/39405209/download_file?st=MTczMzk1OTcwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"THE_TIE_THAT_BINDS_A_FUNDAMENTAL_UNIT_OF.pptx","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/39405209/The_tie_that_binds.pptx?1445729040=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DTHE_TIE_THAT_BINDS_A_FUNDAMENTAL_UNIT_OF.pptx\u0026Expires=1733853419\u0026Signature=QKVAVoIxk7DznrTnfZ2objyvs6e~hoTK0cO54JDENoeY8xi8gNBDuLNJ5rsVxFz-QYh875x1auFvFmBPlGkqoxc9lvR51cwfW3ws3IBGsBG9emfAj-Rxdz6AsdCFMdcAZa5jHyy~GhGooqpxIGLiBeSlMdIOEkJaCvtPOQ3f3LCxu5lyV6DSl-BQgMBSJElgmDurCkrx~VyM26V740g6Jop-pLxZHkU~eMH-7Cs1VTXHXQcY55qE7Xt9Ezj4NAYhF7v1nfHqaNsaztJeQyGiApC-XU2Vb6daUHmg1uR27wTO9G2T8ycFEzybZFcXl8WG0FCVypEUkoHmzw6QB4VEQg__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"research_interests":[{"id":318,"name":"Mathematical Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Mathematical_Physics"},{"id":498,"name":"Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Physics"},{"id":503,"name":"Theoretical Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Theoretical_Physics"},{"id":518,"name":"Quantum Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Quantum_Physics"},{"id":822,"name":"Philosophy of Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Philosophy_of_Physics"},{"id":888,"name":"Cosmology (Physics)","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Cosmology_Physics_"},{"id":2578,"name":"Particle Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Particle_Physics"},{"id":4102,"name":"Foundations of Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Foundations_of_Physics"},{"id":29702,"name":"Theoretical Fundamental Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Theoretical_Fundamental_Physics"},{"id":93166,"name":"Fundamental Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Fundamental_Physics"},{"id":99371,"name":"Theoretical Particle Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Theoretical_Particle_Physics"},{"id":436473,"name":"Philosophy of Physics, Quantum Physics, Foundations of Quantum Mechanics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Philosophy_of_Physics_Quantum_Physics_Foundations_of_Quantum_Mechanics"},{"id":578488,"name":"Fundamentals of Quantum Mechanics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Fundamentals_of_Quantum_Mechanics"}],"urls":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData });

Unfortunately there has never been a method, either mathematical or physical, by which a three-dimensional space can be generated from two or more dimensionless points. This shortcoming raises the question – how can the dimensionless point-particles of the Standard Model which presently dominates physics be extended to account for the three-dimensional space in which the physical interactions they describe occur? Fortunately, this question can now be answered, but the answer does not favor the Standard Model of the quantum as it is presently interpreted. Instead, a unified field theory based on continuity that completely unifies the quantum and relativity and completely incorporates the Standard Model as well as the Superstring, Brane and commonly accepted classical theories has been completed.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="f2cddb60e04602e4a14ba947d25ea435" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":35521050,"asset_id":9252929,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/35521050/download_file?st=MTczMzk1OTcwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="9252929"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span><span id="work-strip-rankings-button-container"></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="9252929"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 9252929; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=9252929]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=9252929]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 9252929; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='9252929']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span><span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 9252929, container: "", }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-f77ea15d77ce96025a6048a514272ad8becbad23c641fc2b3bd6e24ca6ff1932.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (true){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "f2cddb60e04602e4a14ba947d25ea435" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=9252929]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":9252929,"title":"Modern Fysics Phallacies: The best way ‘not to unify physics’ turns out to be the only way ‘to unify physics’","translated_title":"","metadata":{"abstract":"Many physicists believe that the unification of physics within a single paradigmatic theory has been the primary goal in science for only the past few decades, but this would not be true.

In this first section of the Integrated Science course, the areas of physics, astronomy and geology will be covered. Science began nearly two and a half millennia ago in ancient Greece. Physics was the first of the sciences and is still considered the most basic of all the sciences. In physics, the phenomena, events and happenings of which our physical environment consists are logically analyzed into their most fundamental components; matter and motion against the common background of space and time. Ancient philosophers carefully observed all in the world around them, including the stars in the night skies. Observational astronomy was one of the motivating factors in the earliest development of concepts of change and motion in physics and science in general, even though astronomy is an independent science in our own time. The separation of science into many different branches is a later development. That part of astronomy which involves an explanation of the motions of planets stars and other heavenly bodies is also called astrophysics. So, after our study of the basic concepts of motion, the forces which make material bodies move, the energies involved in such processes, the electromagnetic forces and light, we will study structure of the basic units of matter, the atom and the nucleus. Such a study of the microscopic elements of our physical reality actually brings us back the the structure of the universe as a whole as well as the nuclear processes which fuel the stars themselves. So we will then study the astronomy of the universe, galaxy and solar system. After we study the planets in our own solar system, we will continue to specialize our study on our own planet, the earth. In particular, we will look at the forces which shape the surface of our earth as well as how the rocks which make up our immediate environment came to be formed. This will complete our course, but Integrated Science will not be finished. All of the sciences are related in a single whole, yet chemistry and biology have been left for the second course of Integrated Science. That particular separation of the sciences is completely articifial, made as a convenience for our studies, since all of the sciences form a single comprehensive whole. GRADING METHOD: This course will consist of two internet lectures per week over an eight week period. After the eighth lecture, a midterm exam will be given over the internet. A final exam will be given in a common area with a proctor present at the end of the eight week course. In the text of each chapter of the textbook, "activites" are listed. These "activites," as well as others to be posted by the instructor over the internet, will be completed individually by the students and written reports submitted to the instructor for correction, comment and grading. These activites are provided to replace the laboratory exercises which usually accompany a science course such as this one. Problems from the textbook as well as new problems posted on the internet will also be completed by the students with the answers submitted to the instructor. And finally, each chapter of the textbook includes a section on "questions for thought." These questions, and others posted by the instructor, will form the basis of an ongoing internet discussion by the students and instructor. Student responses and contibutions to the discussion for these threaded questions will also be considered in determining the student's grade for this course. Handouts and further explanations of requirements and procedures will be given during the course as necessary. So, there are four parts to this course which the student will need to complete for a grade:</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="e2c7e1b05dda9f5de3538df89cfc31af" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":53105443,"asset_id":32986229,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/53105443/download_file?st=MTczMzk1OTcwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="32986229"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span><span id="work-strip-rankings-button-container"></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="32986229"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 32986229; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=32986229]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=32986229]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 32986229; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='32986229']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span><span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 32986229, container: "", }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-f77ea15d77ce96025a6048a514272ad8becbad23c641fc2b3bd6e24ca6ff1932.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (true){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "e2c7e1b05dda9f5de3538df89cfc31af" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=32986229]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":32986229,"title":"INTEGRATED SCIENCE I","translated_title":"","metadata":{"abstract":"COURSE DESCRIPTION: This course serves as an introduction to the ideas, concepts and practices which form the basis of modern science.

In this first section of the Integrated Science course, the areas of physics, astronomy and geology will be covered. Science began nearly two and a half millennia ago in ancient Greece. Physics was the first of the sciences and is still considered the most basic of all the sciences. In physics, the phenomena, events and happenings of which our physical environment consists are logically analyzed into their most fundamental components; matter and motion against the common background of space and time. Ancient philosophers carefully observed all in the world around them, including the stars in the night skies. Observational astronomy was one of the motivating factors in the earliest development of concepts of change and motion in physics and science in general, even though astronomy is an independent science in our own time. The separation of science into many different branches is a later development. That part of astronomy which involves an explanation of the motions of planets stars and other heavenly bodies is also called astrophysics. So, after our study of the basic concepts of motion, the forces which make material bodies move, the energies involved in such processes, the electromagnetic forces and light, we will study structure of the basic units of matter, the atom and the nucleus. Such a study of the microscopic elements of our physical reality actually brings us back the the structure of the universe as a whole as well as the nuclear processes which fuel the stars themselves. So we will then study the astronomy of the universe, galaxy and solar system. After we study the planets in our own solar system, we will continue to specialize our study on our own planet, the earth. In particular, we will look at the forces which shape the surface of our earth as well as how the rocks which make up our immediate environment came to be formed. This will complete our course, but Integrated Science will not be finished. All of the sciences are related in a single whole, yet chemistry and biology have been left for the second course of Integrated Science. That particular separation of the sciences is completely articifial, made as a convenience for our studies, since all of the sciences form a single comprehensive whole. GRADING METHOD: This course will consist of two internet lectures per week over an eight week period. After the eighth lecture, a midterm exam will be given over the internet. A final exam will be given in a common area with a proctor present at the end of the eight week course. In the text of each chapter of the textbook, \"activites\" are listed.

But none of these rises to the level of ‘best evidence’ for ‘proving’ the reality of the afterlife. The truth is that there is no falsifiable evidence that can distinguish between the afterlife and other paranormal phenomena, i.e., there are always alternative super-psi or general psi explanations for the data, stories and evidence gathered by parapsychologists and experienced by individuals. The afterlife hypothesis is neither falsifiable nor verifiable given the absolute best ‘so-called evidence’ available today. Only a valid theory could offer scientific verifiability and also distinguish whether the evidence gathered so far supports the afterlife concept or super-psi. So, with no valid theory of the afterlife available, either an independent acceptable theory based on specific phenomena or better yet as part of a greater comprehensive theory of physical reality, there is nothing on which to base a truly rigorous experiment that could verify the afterlife to the satisfaction of both the scientific and non-scientific communities. Some form of valid acceptable theory is necessary and long overdue to explain and verify the various paranormal phenomena as well as hone the scientific search for survival of consciousness and the afterlife. We must assume that at least consciousness survives as either part or the whole of any possible afterlife. All of the common paranormal examples that deal with the afterlife are in some way simply different data points that should be used to follow the scientific method and lead to some common physical concept that we identify as the afterlife, so the hypothesis can be tested and verified. Not one of these examples is based on anything other than experiences/observations for which no comprehensive scientific model has ever been developed and/or studied in enough detail to even attempt to verify even the minimum level survival of consciousness in some manner. Only one theoretical unification model in modern physics, the single (operational) field theory or SOFT, is comprehensive enough to model life, mind, and consciousness and their evolution in enough specific detail to even talk logically about survival of consciousness. Be this as it may, the only possible ‘best evidence’ would then be the direct experience of higher consciousness, as in NDEs and enlightenment, which are very personal experiences, but even then, it could only be used as evidence, the best evidence, when it can be analyzed and understood as a physical phenomenon within the context of SOFT, an equivalent or better theoretical model.<br />Keywords: afterlife, best evidence, NDEs, enlightenment, fourth dimension, hyperspace, four-dimensional space-time, five-dimensional time-space, unification, 0-D point/twist, psi, paranormal phenomena, consciousness, higher consciousness, A-fields, physical evolution, unification, psi, ‘pattern matching’</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="bfd0302941b19ac220564c4ca07b773b" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":74464325,"asset_id":61433941,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/74464325/download_file?st=MTczMzk1OTcwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="61433941"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span><span id="work-strip-rankings-button-container"></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="61433941"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 61433941; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=61433941]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=61433941]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 61433941; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='61433941']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span><span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 61433941, container: "", }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-f77ea15d77ce96025a6048a514272ad8becbad23c641fc2b3bd6e24ca6ff1932.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (true){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "bfd0302941b19ac220564c4ca07b773b" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=61433941]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":61433941,"title":"JSCS,V44,I2-Afterlife Evidence TDF- Beichler.pdf","translated_title":"","metadata":{"abstract":"The best evidence presently available for the afterlife has already been tried and found wanting, although there is a great deal of good and various levels of even better evidence when NDEs, reincarnation, new standards for verifying mediumship, death bed visions and other phenomena related to dying and the afterlife are considered.

Be this as it may, the only possible ‘best evidence’ would then be the direct experience of higher consciousness, as in NDEs and enlightenment, which are very personal experiences, but even then, it could only be used as evidence, the best evidence, when it can be analyzed and understood as a physical phenomenon within the context of SOFT, an equivalent or better theoretical model.\nKeywords: afterlife, best evidence, NDEs, enlightenment, fourth dimension, hyperspace, four-dimensional space-time, five-dimensional time-space, unification, 0-D point/twist, psi, paranormal phenomena, consciousness, higher consciousness, A-fields, physical evolution, unification, psi, ‘pattern matching’\n","owner":{"id":13393868,"first_name":"James (Jim)","middle_initials":"E","last_name":"Beichler","page_name":"JamesJimBeichler","domain_name":"webplus","created_at":"2014-06-29T10:57:17.966-07:00","display_name":"James (Jim) E Beichler","url":"https://webplus.academia.edu/JamesJimBeichler"},"attachments":[{"id":74464325,"title":"","file_type":"pdf","scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/74464325/thumbnails/1.jpg","file_name":"JSCS_V44_I2_Afterlife_Evidence_TDF_Beichler.pdf","download_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/74464325/download_file?st=MTczMzk1OTcwMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","bulk_download_file_name":"JSCS_V44_I2_Afterlife_Evidence_TDF_Beich.pdf","bulk_download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/74464325/JSCS_V44_I2_Afterlife_Evidence_TDF_Beichler-libre.pdf?1636510269=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DJSCS_V44_I2_Afterlife_Evidence_TDF_Beich.pdf\u0026Expires=1733853419\u0026Signature=GKHC8a27tfxLjz4DghH201oW-uhMxoBzxVkyWrz-Y-~V9AUpnwHxztpToTBgu1VdKnLZetvHqW50TK1inQKmWm74k~Q5gOqyoLQn6LggZZ2ca8yEDjeXRtsoOsUCzYlRCDhG52FxAsVt0SwdeDaytmYAWaeJr4VAAKfQydyXXivurIOBFIJmSSvM-PiIk5CVku8Zjevnn31KdBBV2VaXM~IX-o87bbNobtgOAM-ori5ijOe73q2n1qbVYVrtaomtOxx~uuN9DNY6KpXzFfF0d8frRl44kJ9QzkcKLiUc3C~HhfTaos-ubjitFvRAfVuDSl~pONmyU~0xWKx3B08opQ__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA"}],"research_interests":[{"id":241,"name":"Parapsychology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Parapsychology"},{"id":498,"name":"Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Physics"},{"id":503,"name":"Theoretical Physics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Theoretical_Physics"},{"id":9040,"name":"Consciousness","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Consciousness"},{"id":17607,"name":"Evolution of Consciousness","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Evolution_of_Consciousness"},{"id":18739,"name":"Afterlife studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Afterlife_studies"},{"id":40633,"name":"Consciousness Studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Consciousness_Studies"},{"id":45890,"name":"Scientific Parapsychology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Scientific_Parapsychology"},{"id":65989,"name":"Grand Unification","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Grand_Unification"},{"id":77311,"name":"Unified Field Theory","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Unified_Field_Theory"},{"id":112717,"name":"Theory of Everything","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Theory_of_Everything"},{"id":377041,"name":"The paranormal and afterlife studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/The_paranormal_and_afterlife_studies"},{"id":446069,"name":"Paraphysics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Paraphysics"},{"id":498542,"name":"Cosmology and Theory of Everything","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Cosmology_and_Theory_of_Everything"},{"id":598103,"name":"Near Death Experiences, afterlife studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Near_Death_Experiences_afterlife_studies"},{"id":1437206,"name":"Compehensive Unified Field Theory","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Compehensive_Unified_Field_Theory"}],"urls":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData });
