Week 7 -- Chaos Theory

• “Ordered chaos” – does this sound familiar?
• Fractals as patterns of complex systems
• Consciousness out of chaos?

• My room has mostly been a great example of ordered chaos. To many people (mostly meaning my mother) it was very chaotic while I could find everything quite well. The term 'Ordered Chaos' is very interesting in that it is like an oxymoron from a western perspective yet makes perfect sense from an eastern position. The Yang within the yin or yon within the yang. Harmony and balance in the midst of constant change. The beautiful dance of the universe, the creativity of creation. As things grow, so must they die (transform). From death comes new life and new more complex systems. The seasons don't fear the reaper so we might as well enjoy the ride.
• Fractals are really cool to watch on video and can really put one into a semi-altered state. The parallels between fractals patterns and say that of an atom to the solar system are very interesting. It leans on the idea of the holographic universe in which even the tiniest piece of the universe contains the code for the entire universe. Just as every cell of a living being contains the coding for the whole being. ---DNA---. I am thinking that the univeres's DNA may look like a fractal pattern and may take more colors or dimensions to get all the coding right.
• Consciousness out of Chaos---If the OM was pure consciousness and all things existed together as one, we may assume that in that absoluteness there was a bit of chaos. From the expansion into what we call reality we may deduce that the OM came into being to experience. This experience has developed consciousness and has from that consciousness began a refinement process until all things merge back into absoluteness again in one way or another. The OM is of course the doer and maker and is contained within the creation and is inseparable from any aspect of the creation for the creation is made of OM. This idea can be explained through these words : " Tudh aapay srist sabh upaa-ee jee, tudh aapay siraj sabh go-ee." -- You Yourself created the entire universe, and having fashioned it, You Yourself shall transform it all.

Week 6 -- Vibrations

• If we are to maintain that vibrations are the basis for all existence in our universe and the many plausible universes in the inter-universal system of infinity then from my personal perspective of enjoying life and the experience that it affords me, then yes, all vibrations are good vibrations. Regardless of my possible immediate reaction to the effect of that vibration in the immediate acoustic environment of spacetime.
  
• Resonance in world makes and takes many forms and synergistic causality. The subtleties of the universe can be known and felt far beyond the normally perceived and accepted limits of time. Resonance is my guide. Resonance is my teacher. Resonance is my best defense. Resonance is my interaction with everyone and everything. Resonance is nurturer of my intuition. Resonance is the light guiding my excellence. Resonance is the line on which I walk toward infinity. Resonance is sharp as a knife. Resonance makes my way unique. Resonance is the radiance in the void. Resonance is when there is not.
• Qi gives birth to energy and energy gives flexibility to qi. Qi is energy on the verge of becoming matter and matter on the verge of becoming energy. Qi fills the space between the particle and wave and is particle and it is wave. Pertaining to the vernacular of the individual these forces may be the same or they may be quite different. Regardless, we seem to need them both.
  

Week 5 --Symmetry & Sacred Geometry

• Symmetry at a first thought seems to be rather direct and understandable without having to twist the mind too much. We just tend to see that events are balanced on both sides of an occurrence and that systems have balance and that behaviors of particles follow certain rules regardless of location, time or spacial orientation. In reading Stephen hawking's Book, "UNiverse in a Nutshell" I came across some particles that require two complete revolutions for them to look the same. this has to do with their spin. Particles with spin 1 look the same when you spin them 360 degrees around. With a spin of 2, 180 degrees will have the particle looking the same and with a spin of 3 it would take less thsn 180 degrees. This I think we can easily understand. But to try to imagine that for some particles it would take two complete revolutions for it to look the same is definitely a mind bender for me. Particles requiring 720 degrees are said to have spin of 1/2. Then it talks about Supersymmetry which incorporates extra dimensions into space time ,called Grassman dimensions. This theory led to the theories of Supergravity which talks about Fermions and Bosons and the balance of charge of these types of particles.
• CP violation....After reading the info about CPT and understanding that it has to do with radioactive decay, I am sure that I do not understand it fully. C= charge P=parity T=time . Charge Parity Violation means that a particle with a certain charge and spin moving in one direction of time breaks with the theorem of symmetry under certain conditions. Here it is shown that a kaon particle will only decay moving in one direction of time and will not in another direction. The kaon's decay rate changed inder this reversal and hence violated the CPT. The kaon decay rate is accepted as a distinguishing factor in past versus future. This CP violation only seems to happen in dealing with the neutral kaon decay and not with substances like uranium,thorium, radon, and so forth. These substances decay in dependent of time's direction while the neutral kaon decay is dependent upon the direction of time.
• Sacred geometry and physics most definitely have connections. The ancients were very aware of the power of geometry and the power of the shapes of nature. Now, with our technology we are beginning to see the depth of connection the ancients had we are starting to remember and integrate these teachings and practices. One great example is the Golden Mean. From rabbit population growth, to sunflower seed arrangements, to the human body rations, to the spiral. The development of this ratio with regard to fractal, weather systems and many other things along with the connection between mathematical concepts and our world have become to be known as Chaos theory. As we begin to understand more about our universe and the subtle and tiny things that are happening, and as our mental consciousness begins to unfold to allow for 'super-reality' events to be commonplace, and as our science learns more to support these events, we shall move into a new horizon of consciousness substantiated with observation and integrated with experience. It is here that we will begin to understand our interconnectedness and experience our oneness. This is when we will begin to achieve peace on the planet. May we all be so blessed as to experience this within ourselves. Sat Nam.
  

Week 4 Assignments -- Energy Matter & the Four Forces

• E=MCsquared! This equation and what it represents have definitely played a large part in the way I view the world and how I approach understanding this universe and of my interaction with the universe. To know that the speed of light is so fundamental a force that all things we generally understand to have substance/mass are related to it and that they are in actuality just energy in another state. Just as water readily changes into ice or steam. This has helped me to keep perspective in the world by remembering that all things are transient and in a constant state of change. This is true both in the physical world and also in the underlying reality upon which this universe sits. My creativity has been upheld as has my creative spirit to know that the static, unchanging and rigid world that had been taught to me in my youth is not actually so. And that my inner light has a "weird" world in which it may thrive.
• The four forces are really incredible. How they work just so perfectly that the universe works! Whoever the clock maker was on this one really thought it thru before he set the gears in motion! Electromagnetism is known mainly as light or magnetism and those are mostly accepted as being different things though they are the same force...cool! Gravity is cool because this way we can walk to work without flying off to outerspace in a grand flurry of unmitigated movement. Gravity's reach is infinite as is the electromagnetic forces' yet electromagnetism can be cancelled out while gravity will keep on working no matter what. Gravity has infinite reach and always works but is the weakest ( or shall we say the most subtle - which is a very powerful thing too). The strong nuclear force is 10000000000000000000000000000000000000 times stronger than gravity but only has influence on the area of the atomic nucleus and the subatomic particles in there. The weak nuclear force is responsible for radioactive decay and works only on the area in the immediate proximity of the atomic nucleus and has two bascin particles that are big and sluggish...relatively speaking, of course.
• Gravity's function seems to be to keep the accumulations of matter near each other and to keep the universe from spreading itself out too thin too fast. It wouldn't be very fun or interesting if life forms didn't have a chance to develop into higher cognitive levels and quest for the many varying interesting secrets and intrigues the universe has to offer.
  

Week 3-- Synchronicity + Connectivity

• Synchronicity is a very interesting occurrence and does not cease to interest me even after being aware of it for many years. Yet the question I have to ask is, "How does one use this occurrence to expand the benefit for all humanity and is it 'ok' to do so?" I have been getting past the latter part of the question which has enabled me to find comfort in the synchronicity of my life at a level that is allowing me to capitalize on the synchronicity that I may serve the peace within myself and hence increase the total peace on the planet. Some examples of this are reaching for my phone as someone is calling me, or reminding my wife to leave the Muni pass as she is walking out of the house with it when it is her day to take the car, or receiving an email from a certain company that I was just thinking about that never had my email to begin with....that one was weird!! These types of events seem to be synchronicity on a smaller orbit while if we were to take a larger perspective on our lives and the happenings of our lives we would surely see that there are larger scale events that are also synchronistic. Yet this would require of us an ability to move beyond our normal scope of awareness into a realm larger and probably more 'weird'.

• Connectivity is, well, as it sounds, the connectedness of things. More specifically, the connectedness of all things, seen and unseen, heard and unheard, known and unknown. This idea is more true for some than it is others and is more experienced by some than it is by others. Of the numerous ways to explain connectivity one way to see it is to understand that the universe came from one teeny tiny dot of infinite density and then-- Big Bang -- thus we have differentiation and variety and the existence of us, humans. From this perspective there is really no denying that we are all connected as we are all made out of basically the same stardust and have probably shared many molecules with many other people by now just through our breathing not to mention the unseen energetic connections we share. These connections are interesting too and are more known by some than by others. Some call these connections 'radiant pranic chords' which extend from the navel of individuals to the navel of others. These chords connect us all to a certain degree but we can develop stronger bonds with people we interact with more or have deeper connections to whether from this lifetime of not. The energy passing through these chords are not restricted by the confines of timespace but can transmit information instantly from one end of the universe to the other. This is another way to explain connectivity.
