verbal difficulties with the definition of life

Because of the psychological strength of preconceived notions. Our kind of conscious mind is splendid and unique. It causes us, however, to interpret all other kinds of life according to our own specifications and experiences.

There is no such thing , in our terms, as nonliving matter. There is simply a point that we recognize as having the characteristics that we have arbitrarily ascribed to life, or living conditions. For there is no particular point at which life was inserted into nonliving matter.

If we must speak in terms of continuity, which I regret, then in those terms we could say that life in the physical universe, on our planet, “began” spontaneously in a given number of species at the same time. Words do nearly forsake me, the semantic differences are so vast. In those terms there was a point where consciousness through intent, impressed itself into matter. That “breakthrough” cannot be logically explained, but only compared at once, that became a medium for life as we define it. It had nothing to do with the propensity of certain kinds of cells to reproduce–[all cells are] imbued with the set the conditions in which life was possible as we think of it; and at that imaginary, hypothetical point, all species became latent. The inner pulsations of the invisible universe reached certain intensities that “impregnated” the entire physical system simultaneously. That illumination was everywhere then at every point aware of itself, and of the conditions formed by its presence.

At the same time, Electromagnetic Energy units became manifest. The universe expands as an idea does, and so the visible universe sprang into being in the same manner. The same energy that gave birth to the universe is, in those terms, still being created. The Electromagnetic Energy units contain within themselves the latent knowledge of all of the various species that can emerge under those conditions. It is according to our relative position. We can say that it took untold centuries for Electromagnetic Energy units to “initially” combine, forming classifications of matter and various species and of the entire environment. In those terms the environment forms the species and the species form the environment. There were fully developed men and women–that is, of full intellect, emotion, and will–living at the same time, in our terms, as those creatures supposed to be man’s and woman’s evolutionary ancestors

However, as we begin to question the nature of time itself, then the “when” of the universe is beside the point. The motion and energy of the universe still comes from within. I certainly realize that this is hardly a scientific statement–yet the moment that All That Is conceived of a physical system it was invisibly created, endowed with creativity, and bound to emerge [into physical reality].

There is a design and a designer, but they are so combined, the one within the other, the one within and one without, that it is impossible to separate them. The creator is within its creations, and the creations themselves are gifted with creativity. The world comes to know itself, to discover itself, for the planner left room for divine surprise, and the plan was nowhere foreordained. Nor is there anywhere within it anything that corresponds to our “survival of the fittest” theories.

flesh and blood creatures’, interior aspects of perception have physical counterparts.

But material awareness and bodily response to it would be impossible were it not for these internal web-works. I am saying that all exterior events, including our own bodies with their insides, all objects, all physical materialization, are the outside structure of inside ones that are composed of interior sound and invisible light, interwoven in electro-magnetic patterns.

Beneath temporal perception, then each object and event exists in these terms, in patterns that interact with each other. On a physical level we seem to be separated from everything it seems to be and it is an assumption that we usually take for granted.

There are few verbal equivalents for some explanations.

the precognitive abilities of a species

Biologists don’t see any evidence of it in their work. In evolutionary theory, such attributes violate not only the operation of chance mutation and the struggle for existence, but our ideas of consecutive time [which is associated with “naive realism”–the belief that things really as we perceive them to be]. Not that scientifically the concept of a far more flexible time–even a backward flow of time–is all that new. In atomic physics, for example, no special meaning or place is given to any particular moment, and fundamentally the past and future all but merge in the interactions of elementary particles–thus  at least approaching simultaneous time. At that level there’s change, or value fulfillment, but no evolution. To my way of thinking, if there’s value fulfillment there’s consciousness, expressed through Conscious Units, or units of consciousness.

But to some degree many scientists outside physics regard such esoteric particle relationships as being of theoretical interest mainly within that discipline; the concepts aren’t seen as posing any threat to biology, zoology, or geology, for instance, nor do they tinker with naive realism. The biological sciences can cling to mechanistic theories of evolution by employing the conservative physics of cause and effect to support their conclusions while being aware, perhaps, of tenets of particle physics. Such “casual analysis” then proves itself over and over again. I’ve read the theory of evolution is used to prove the theory of evolution.

I find it very interesting, then, to consider that the theory of evolution is a creature of our coarser world of “physical” construction. Our ordinary, chosen sensual perceptions move us forward, within “the time system that the species adopted.” The moment point encompasses the seeming paradox through which consecutive time can be allowed expression within simultaneous time.

Between each number in a given series is literally infinite space.

The infinitesimal becomes infinite.

In the same way the most infinitesimal self is infinite, and the most finite self, carried to the extremes of itself, is infinite. Each of us is part of an infinite self. That infinite self appears as a series of finite selves in our reality.

Beneath that perceived reality, however, each finite self, carried to its degree, is itself infinite: but there are different kinds of infinities. There are different varieties of psychological infinities that do not meet–that is that go off in their own infinite directions.

As long as we believe that as individuals we belong in any given series, we appear to ourselves as finite.

We think in terms of linear time, and the best we can do to imagine our deeper reality is to consider reincarnation in time. It is a matter of focus. We usually identify with the outside of ourselves, and with the outside of the world. We do not, for example, usually identify with the inside of our body with its organs, much less its cells or atoms–yet in that direction lies a certain kind if infinity.

If we would identify with our own psychological reality, following the inward structure of thoughts and feelings, we would discover an inward psychological infinity. These “infinities” would reach of course into both past or future, and into all probabilities–not simply straightforward into time, or backward.

There is literally an infinity in each moment we recognize, as numerically there is an “infinity” behind or within any prime number (3,97,863, etc) that we recognize.

There are infinite versions of oneself, but no one negates the others, and each is connected with the others, and aids and supports them. There are other kinds of psychological organizations also. In those term some have learned or is learning, to alternate a series–to bring information from one [neurological series] to another, so to speak.

However, none of this is apart from normal living.
