title of this document:
´´God was an accident, humans were cloned,” stands
as a theory on its own and a statement to refocus mankind for all
time. Naiwu Osahon.
EVOLUTION
OR CREATION. Darwin was
the first to break from tradition with his theory of evolution. For
him a designer was not necessary for plants and animals to adapt to
their environment. It could all happen by chance through natural
selection. His central point in his ´Origin of Species´ theory was
that an unguided process of natural selection, acting on minor
variations, is sufficient to produce new species (´speciation”),
organs, body plans etc., at least after the origin of life.
Evolutionists
insist that creationists are not scientific but emotional. Surely,
millions of years must be more than adequate for even the ordinary
algae to develop into a monster without assistance. In any case, we
now have overwhelming evidence that simple chemical reactions among
the compounds available on the early earth were sufficient to drive
the process that led inexorably to life.
Obviously,
early life didn´t posses DNA or proteins from start. A theory is
that early life may have used a single molecule for both information
storage and catalysis, a form of self-replicating enzyme. Every
living cell on earth today uses DNA to store its genetic information,
and proteins (enzymes) catalyze the reactions that the cell needs to
live and replicate. RNA (rebonucleic acid found in all living cells)
was first put forward 35 years ago as the precursor to DNA and
proteins in early life forms but it was soon established that RNA
sequences fall far short of the 50 nucleotides required to link up to
form life. Today, geneticists see RNA as the go-between for DNA and
proteins: a protein is manufactured from an RNA template, which
itself was created from a DNA template.
A
recent experiment by James Ferris at Resselaer Polytechnic Institute
in Tory, New York, USA, shows that RNA sequences can reach 50
nucleotides using a type of clay known as montorillonite (a hydrated
aluminosilicate) as both template and catalyst for linking the
nucleotides together. A new popular idea is that RNA was not the
first replicating molecule; that there was a pre-RNA world from which
the RNA world developed. That whatever form this replicator took; it
eventually spawned self-replicating RNA, which then went on to usurp
its role as the prime replicator on the early earth. It has been
suggested that systems of high complexity can develop without any
need for a distant store of genetic information. In this scenario,
researchers argue that a set of simple small molecules, such as
enzymes and amino acid residue carrying out cycles of mutually
reinforcing reactions, gradually evolve into greater complexity.
Many
biologists thought that the replicating process was a kind of
conveyor belt system carrying the proteins in an orderly fashion.
That some newly made proteins make their way through a structure
known as the Golgi complex enroute to being secreted out of the cell.
Jennifer Lippincott-Schwartz, a researcher at the National Institute
of Child Health and Human Development, USA, used the green
fluorescent protein GFP, to follow not only where proteins are moving
in a cell, but also where a given protein is present in the largest
number. She found that a newly made protein moves through a series
of compartments in a cell. When it enters one, it bounces around
with other proteins already there, periodically by chance, one of the
proteins is bounced to the next compartment. Thus the movement is
more akin to the diffusion of a gas than a conveyor belt. Chance,
therefore, plays the most significant part in the sustainability
process of the initial molecule that becomes coded as a mathematical
exactitude and a creation story.
INTELLIGENT
DESIGN. Intelligent design
people mock the idea of replication. They claim to have a fully
functioning automobile capable of replicating itself. That the
complexity of the system is complete with GPS navigation, DVD
players, and on board WiFi. That this discovery forever alters the
once fundamental distinction between life and non-life. On a more
serious note, intelligent design group claim that Darwin was more
theological than scientific in his argument because he relied on
artificial rather than natural selection. That all Darwin could
offer was one or two imaginary illustrations, no more. They argue
that although domestic breeders have demonstrated for centuries that
species can be modified even dramatically by selecting only
individuals with desired variations, Darwin wrongly believed that if
the process is extended over geological time, it could accomplish
much more.
They
cite a 1997 evolutionary biologist Keith Stewart Thomson who said: “A
matter of unfinished business for biologists is the identification of
evolution´s smoking gun, which is speciation, not local adaptation
and differentiation of populations.” That the general belief for
centuries before Darwin was that species can vary only within certain
limits, and that centuries of artificial selection had seemingly
demonstrated such limits experimentally. That Darwin needed to prove
that the limits could be broken. Logan Gage supporting intelligent
design, is not happy with the misleading argument currently
dominating the evolution debate. That is the idea of God as an artist
who is involved in his work, and the reductionism necessary to
Darwin´s theory which is antithetical to the idea of beauty.
Benjamin
Wiker on ´Darwin, The Man and the Myth´ argues that Darwin´s
reductionism displays the kind of bluntness of soul found in Sigmund
Freud, which could reduce the glory of Hamlet to the irrational
gurgling of sexual desire. It is the precise bluntness of soul that
led Charles Darwin to reduce the origin of music to mating calls and,
hence, to the sexual desire that drives sexual selection.” He was
referring here to Darwin´s reductionist account of music in ´The
Descent of Man and Selection in Relation to Sex,´ and claims that
Christians think science determines the ´how´ and religion
determines the ´why.´ But that what we see in Darwinism is that
natural selection swallows up other casual chains. The ´why´ of
natural phenomena reduces to ´because it enhanced reproductive
success. And beauty – to the artist´s great horror – is no
exception.
CREATIONISTS.
Religionists are adamant
on the creation story and rely mainly on the Genesis account. They
point to the beauty, breath, variety, complexity and orderliness of
the universe and insist that all these could not have happened by
chance. Between May 1996 and April 1997, eight new planets were
discovered in our solar system confirming that we are still learning
about the universe. What we already know is very intimidating indeed.
There are about 100,000 million (some claim 200,000 to 400,000
million) fixed stars in our own galaxy and this is like a dot in our
Milky Way of at least twenty galaxies, extending over 600 quadrillion
(600,000 million, million miles) in diameter. Our Milky Way, vast as
it may appear to be, is only a speck of dust in the vast universe of
over 1,500 million galaxies so far recorded. There are all sorts of
things out there in the cosmos and humans are far from being the
center even of their own Milky Way.
Creationists
insist that man could not have evolved from rodents, monkeys or apes.
That all species from fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, mammals and
humans have no connection or link. Among humans, there is no evidence
from dug up fossils to link Ramapithecus with Australopithecus or
Homo erectus etc., to Homo sapiens. The skull of each specie differs
significantly from the others just as that of the chimpanzee differs
drastically from that of humans. Creationists liken mutation to
accidents that tend to be destructive rather than constructive and do
not lead to new species. They quote experiments on the common fruit
fly (Drosophila melanogaster and the observation of peppered moth
colour change) which have not yielded new species so far.
Evolutionists,
particularly theistic evolutionists on their part also claim that
intelligent design arguments are more theological than scientific. I
think Intelligent design promoters are unintelligent people seeking
cheap publicity. They are not open to new ideas. When I suggested
that I have a different theory from theirs and Darwin´s, they did
not want to hear about it. They immediately removed me from their
subscription list.
The
greatest problem I see concerning Intelligent design as indeed the
Christian faith, is their assumption that there is a God or Super
Spiritual Being or Entity up there in heaven running a gigantic
factory churning out all sorts of species, organs, body plans and all
else in creation. Since no two individuals in nature are exactly
alike, each with its own unique traits, every thing in the universe,
including parts and all, have to be produced piecemeal. One God
surely can not handle such enormous responsibility and still find
time to create new things, attend to our prayers, relax, eat and
sleep. And if as Christians say that God is in our image, he must
have aged seriously by now and probably retiring and even perhaps
going senile, considering that the universe has been around for 10–20
billion years. He cannot be in our image and continue to efficiently
do the work Christians saddle him with, in perpetuity. Therefore, we
are being unduly arrogant to expect the entity to be in our image or
that every ´intelligence´ in the universe has brain or soul like
ours?
CREATION
HAS MANY DAUGHTERS. Apart
from the reactions of accidentally colliding chemicals of nature,
there are several other agencies of creation. Even the tiniest
particle has illimitable creative powers, so, dependence on belief
and emotions are no longer sufficient. Creativity takes a variety of
forms; accidents create, wind creates by blowing seeds about. The
four elements (sun, wind, water and earth) create when they mix in
different proportions. Information is being exchanged between the
elements all the time. Insects and birds create through pollination.
Men are not the innovators
they think they are. Almost in all areas of human technology, lower
forms of living things have created masterpieces.
Penguins,
sea turtles, sea iguanas filter excess salt from their drink. We
build huge factories doing the same. Sea birds such as gulls,
pelicans, cormorants, albatross and petrels use glands in their heads
to cleanse their blood of excess salt. Mangrove trees use roots to
remove salt from seawater through their membranes. The avinennia
mangrove specie removes excess salt with glands underneath its
leaves. The male melee bird uses fermenting vegetation buried in
mounds, which it checks regularly to maintain heat level of 92
degrees by adding or removing sand, to hatch eggs laid one a week for
up to six months period by the female melee. Birds navigate by the
sun and stars like clockwork.
Diatoms
a microscopic plant keeps accurate time by coming out when tide is
out, and going down when tide recedes whether in natural waters or
simulated laboratory facilities. Also in the laboratory or ocean,
the fiddler crabs come out with low tide darker in colour and
retreats at high tide looking pale. Designers of Airplanes adopted
several features of birds´ wing curvature to achieve lift off and
overcome gravitational pull. Birds have special feathers that pop to
avoid stalling and effect stability when wing tilt increases. Air
conditioning technique was being used to cool termites´ homes before
man thought about it.
Some
500 varieties of electric fish have batteries. The African catfish
produces 350 volts of electricity. The South American electric eel
can produce as much as 886 volts. Eleven families of a variety of
fishes have species with electrical organs. The North Atlantic giant
electric ray produces 60 volts of 50-ampere pulses. Jelly fish,
scallops, chambered nautilus, dragonfly larvae and some oceanic
plankton use jet propulsion to move around. The octopus and the
squid shoot themselves forward by using powerful muscles to expel
water they have sucked into a special chamber. Chambered nautilus
regulates its depth in water by regulating gas and water in its
floating tanks. Cuttlefish pumps water out and gas into its cavity
to control buoyancy. Its cavity functions like submarine water
tanks.
Some
trees containing extremely clean water in which ice crystals can form
survive in temperatures 40 degree below zero Fahrenheit. Some fish
produce own antifreeze to survive in the Antarctica. To avoid
freezing too in the Antarctica, some microscopic plants use chemical
similar to glycerol used to cool our radiators. Butterflies, birds,
dolphins, some pigeons, molluscs, and bees have magnetite and plot
their journey using magnetic field. Man´s crude compass first
produced in the 13 cent., use magnetic needle floating in water.
Some
bacteria make compass with strings of magnetite to locate favourable
environment. Wasps, yellow jackets and hornets produce grey paper
from chewed up weathered wood to make nests. Hornets use many layers
of paper for outer coverings separated by dead-air spaces for
insulation as efficient as a 16 inches thick brick wall against heat
and cold and hangs it from a tree. Leaf-cutting ants farm fungi in
compost of leaves and their droppings. Aphids are kept as livestock
in specially built barns by some ants for a sugary honey dew milk.
A
fraction change of heat is spotted by the boaconstrictor in 35
milliseconds. The melee bird and bush turkey use beaks to spot one
degree Fahrenheit change of atmosphere. A mosquito´s antenna detects
change of 1/300 degree Fahrenheit. A rattlesnake uses pits by sides
of the head to sense a change of 1/600-degree Fahrenheit.
A bacterium spins a
cork-screw type stiff spiral twisted together from hair like
extensions and looking like a ship propeller to drive itself forward
at speeds of up to 30 miles an hour. It reverses too so nature
invented a wheel, a rotary engine, complete with coupling, rotating
axle, bearings, and rotating power transmission before man did. The
railroad worm has a red headlight and 11 white or pale green pairs of
windows. Fish such as flashlight, angler, lantern, viper and
constellation all have lights so also are certain microorganisms in
the ocean beds. Fireflies flash cold light that loses no energy
unlike electric bulbs that loose energy. Dolphins and bats have
superior sonar to man´s example. They use supersonic sound signals
to produce echolocation to avoid objects even in peach darkness.
Porpoises and whales do likewise in water.
Oilbirds
use echolocation to enter and leave dark caves using sharp clicking
sounds as guide. Hay is cut, cured and stored by Pikas and Marmots.
Mimosa trees are pruned by a beetle. Seeds are stored in underground
granaries by harvester ants. Warm sand serves as incubator for eggs
for some birds and sea turtles. There are birds hatching their eggs
in the warm ashes of volcanoes. Some alligators cover their eggs with
decaying vegetation for heat.
THE
COSMOS HAS A MIND OF ITS OWN.
Of the 100 million species of animals that have inhabited the earth
in the last 3 billion years, only 2 million have survived and they
have not necessarily been around all that long. Man is one of the
youngest and would disappear too with time. Extraterrestrial beings
die. Matter condenses and explodes. Volcanoes are not strange,
mountains spew out acid rains now and again, and earthquakes are
common phenomena around the world. These are evolutionary processes
nature uses to replenish or re-create herself.
In
the Guardian newspaper, Nigeria, of February 25, 2000, it was
reported that an American geoscientist, Prof. James Kasting of
Pennsylvania State University predicted that the earth had entered
its final 10 percent life span. That its oceans would disappear in
about a billion years due to increased temperatures from a
brightening sun. Kasting claimed that before the planet becomes an
arid desert, the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere would be
too low to support plant life, destroying the foundation of the food
chains. Kasting, who spoke at the yearly meeting of the American
Association for the Advancement of Science said: The sun, like all
main sequence stars, is getting brighter with time and that
eventually temperatures will become so high oceans will evaporate.
At 60o (140oF) water becomes a major constituent of the atmosphere.
Much of this water drifts up to the stratosphere and is lost into
space. Eventually, all the oceans will leak out of the earth´s
grasp.
He
went on: “Astronomers always knew that the oceans would evaporate,
but they typically thought it would occur only when the sun left the
main sequence – that will be in five billion years.” Stars leave
the main sequence when they stop burning hydrogen. The sun will then
become a red giant, swamping and obliterating mercury. Venus will
lose its atmosphere and become a burnt-out planet. However, my
calculations show the oceans may evaporate much earlier, said Prof.
Kasting. “They are somewhat pessimistic and present a worst-cast
scenario, but they say a billion years. The earlier loss of carbon
dioxide will occur because as the climate gets hotter and wetter,
more rock is weathered by rain. This dissolves carbon dioxide and
hides it away on the ocean floor as calcium carbonate.” According
to Kasting, “obviously, a billion, even a half billion years, is a
long way off in the future. But these models can help us refine our
understanding of the time that a planet remains in an orbit where
life can exist…”
Man
is not the only intelligence even in our Milky Way nor do we have the
monopoly of ´Nature´s´ favours. We are not even special in terms
of evolution. Nature would just as easily smoulder an ant, as she
would man in an earthquake. It is all part of nature´s self
re-newal process. But Nature allows herself to be challenged within
certain iron-clad laws. It is in this area that man has
distinguished himself to become masters of the earth. Arnold Toynbee
once said: ´God allows man to be challenged so that in man´s
response to the challenge he may come to realize the creative realm
of existence.´ Nature welcomes joint creation. Ingenuous ones are
incorporated into the schemes of things while the not so ingenuous
ones are aborted.
(A)
Osahon´s Theory on the Origin of the Species.
Reactions
of accidental collisions of chemical compounds in nature in early
life, originate primitive creations; good creations keep evolving and
creating on their own. Bad ones eventually atrophy or self-destruct
because their two plus two adds up to more or less than four. Once
coded, creation is locked up in nature and whole or parts cannot
alter.
Innovators
must operate within given natural or mathematical laws otherwise the
creation would be aborted. Cloners need a womb, eggs, male sperm or
cells. Man has not been able to evolve artificial substitutes for
these yet. Timing of insemination must be dead accurate within
ovulation period for the foetus to hold. Man cannot shorten gestation
period because less than natural time is premature and has dire
consequences. But man has discovered within these rules, areas he
can tinker with successfully. Mutation that previously took five to
twenty million years to become species now takes hours by man. Man
can now change the genetic schemata of any given species literally
overnight.
Scientists
are now able to splice together genetic materials of any two
organisms to create DNA chimera similar to the Biblical chimera with
the lion head, goat body and serpent tail. In fact, man can now
splice together organisms of man and mouse to create a monster
man-mouse. This is one of the dangers posed by molecular
engineering. No one can say what any end result would turn out to
be, a monster or a wimp? Research is on already to produce viruses
that eat oil spill but what if one of these viruses finds its way
into the tank of an aircraft in flight? Some recent successes in
molecular engineering involve splicing bacteria with appropriate
instructions to turn out quantities of enzymes, hormones, antibodies
and other chemicals necessary for the treatment of disease. They are
already trying to create insulin-producing bacteria to inject into
individuals deficient in insulin. Man can now assemble and
disassemble cells, isolate and synthesize genes, override natural
instructions of a cell nucleus and is on the verge of remaking
himself to fulfill his hopes, dreams, and ambitions for himself. In
other words, to play God.
Extraterrestrial
intelligence with thousands
of years of technical superiority manipulated and cloned humans
through genetic engineering over a period of thirteen million years
just as humans have now started cloning animals and are about cloning
man. The aliens continued to come back at intervals of interstellar
travel time to improve on our intellectual capacity and physical
bearing through genetic manipulation, selection and elimination
process. Darwin called it survival of the fittest. It has been more
pronounced with humans. Evidence of our relatively speedy evolution
genetically abound. Animals physically closest to humans - monkeys,
chimpanzees, gorillas, essentially have not improved intellectually
or changed significantly in shape since first appearance. Yet they
appeared in creation millions of years before humans.
Humans
have continued to evolve for 13 million years if we accept the
evolution theory, or 100,000 years as Homo sapiens, with bigger
brains and more attractive mien. In the last couple of thousands of
years, aliens have concentrated their manipulative techniques on
living with us to teach us rudimentary technology and improve on our
genes through sexual intercourse with our daughters. This is
understandable since we only recently started looking less like
chimpanzees and more like the intelligent, sexually and physically
desirable Homo sapiens that we have become.
Extraterrestrial
beings (perhaps Martians before atrophy) achieved this technological
feat with Homo sapiens a hundred thousand years ago by working
principally on the human brain size in over thirteen million years of
cloning us from chimpanzees and themselves. They appear to have aimed
at two possible choices. To produce physically handsome beings
(relative to how they look) and with quality organs. They obviously
wanted intelligent beings but not geniuses immediately, so as to be
able to manipulate us and use our organs and body parts for a while
for their survival. If we had been smarter than our makers from the
beginning, we would not have seen them as Gods. We have started
catching up with them intellectually, which is responsible for this
revelation now.
There
are several other worlds, subtle and physical. The Jewish ´world´s
four-fold structure concept´ claims that: “The world of our
present consciousness is only one out of many worlds of consciousness
that exists, and that those other worlds must contain experiences,
which have a meaning for our life also; and that although in the main
their experiences and those of this would keep discrete, yet the two
become continuous at certain points, and higher energies filter in.”
Although
the origin of Extraterrestrial beings may be difficult or impossible
to verify now, it is not difficult to imagine that they evolved well
before us. Mounting evidence suggests their evolution from deep
cosmic history. Myths, documents and powerfully engaging stories
abound throughout history about the exploits of celestial beings that
include, even if in jest, lumps of thick, sloppy, jelly-like thinking
beings, and ugly, smart, robot-like humanoids, processing food in
their bodies like plants do, and terrorizing us with their flying
discs or objects. Loads of sightings have been reported by credible
observers and military aircrafts from around the world, and there is
incontrovertible evidence of the aliens´ technical assistance in our
new found attempts to conquer space. It appears as if the self
appointed policing governments of the world are hiding things to keep
the rest of us in check for as long as possible.
Extraterrestrial
beings may have evolved from some jelly-like substances and have,
like a chain re-action, been creating other beings across the
universe. Each celestial race appears to have cloned another across
planetary worlds and tinkered with the mien and brain sizes of their
clones, perhaps in the hope of creating super-specimens. That is the
only satisfactory scientific way to explain the human brain size that
kept increasing from one evolution to the other. Our brains were
obviously being manipulated in the laboratory of the race we call
Extraterrestrial beings that separated us from our chimpanzee family
through cloning, and taught us to walk on two rather than all fours,
and moralized us.
(A1)
Osahon´s Theory on Human Origin.
Humans
were cloned.
As
Homo-sapiens, we appear to be the most recent and physically most
attractive beings in the cosmos so far, but not the most intelligent.
We are like cultured dolphins compared to our super-intelligent,
God-like cloners, but we are learning and growing albeit slowly. In
time, we too would begin to clone a new race on another planet. We
are looking for evidence of life to adapt on Mars and the Moon
already, and would do the same on other celestial bodies within range
of our orbital flight of fancy, ambition, and technical competence.
The
space visitors played a significant part in civilizing and moralizing
us over the years, the later as a way of controlling our excesses and
behaviors generally. There are the virtuous and the not so virtuous
aliens. The virtuous ones apparently want us to become more
spiritual so as to fit into the cosmic scheme of the universe. But
the speed of our evolutionary spiritual growth is left to us
individually. The not so virtuous aliens have been controlling us
physically for some three thousand years now at least. They claim to
need our organs for their survival. Their leader is Yahweh, the Deity
created for world manipulation. The God who claims to hate the rest
of mankind particularly the Africans and is, therefore, not listening
to those he rejected, even when they pray as Christians and Muslims.
For
thousands of years we revered extraterrestrial beings. Even now that
we have achieved the rudiments of their technology, we do not see
them yet as con artists, usurping the role of the ´Spiritual Energy
Field.´ They still visit us. We now call them UFOs and their
activities are still shrouded in secrecy as in the past because our
spiritual elite with access to them, hides the secret from the rest
of mankind. In fact, they are with us right now, transferring
technology and collaborating in our space programme and computer
technology explosion. They have admitted that they created (cloned)
us and also that they control us with religion, Satanism, witchcraft,
magic and occult powers. What this means is that when we tap
spiritually into the various energies in space by (telepathy,
prayers, magic, meditation, rituals, or other gestures and means) we
are not reaching out to God the Almighty or any Ultimate Spiritual
Being but spiritual space transmitters used for our control through
electromagnetism. Apparitions are space tricks with mirrors, alien
intelligence has said so much and more already but you do not believe
this and so might want to ask: If the space men or gods created us,
who created them? If your answer is, God did, then one must ask you
the ultimate question: who created God? Who created who created?
There is no end to the questions is there?
THE
PHI (1.618). Both
creationists and evolutionists make sense because Nature is the mid
way house between the two. ´Creation´ and ´evolution´ are not
mutually exclusive in Nature. They both work together in form of
coded mathematical principles that say, if ´a´ happens ´b´
sequence must follow. Nature is like a synthesizer, breaking
everything thrown at her into learnt or fixed mathematical properties
to throw back. Initial creations happen by accident and only the
sound creations endure through evolution. With the unsound or
unhealthy, Nature is out of balance until the freak self-destructs.
Mathematical code is embedded in ´a´ happening, whether by chance
or through a mirage of facilities and possibilities, and when it
happens, it triggers the mathematical code for its consequences. Dr.
Stephen Meyer´s book: Signature in the cell: DNA and evidence for
intelligent design, published June, 2009, said nothing new,
information is being coded all the time in the DNA to facilitate
replication of healthy evolutionary creations. ´Chance´ has built
in mathematical probability too. One in a million chances perhaps,
but still a mathematical entity.
Pythagoras
agreed that number influenced the creation of the world. He claimed
that “while number escapes the limitation of time and space, they
play vital roles in two areas. While freaks are possible in nature,
i.e., fish walking on earth or birds swimming in deep water, two plus
two would always equal four.” Plotinus adds that: “besides
intelligence, and anterior thereto, exists Essence. It contains
Numbers, with which it begets (beings): for it begets them by moving
according to number determining upon the numbers before giving
hypostatic existence to the (beings) just as the unity (of essence)
precedes it (existence) and interrelates it with the First (or
absolute Unity.)”
There
is a conscious aspect to all atom (a peculiarly fixed intelligence)
linking with all the conscious properties of the entire cosmos to
form a universal energy
field with the properties
of
electromagnetism, gravity, strong and weak nuclear as
its ultimate
arsenal in a unified state.
This is Tu-SoS
or En-Sof of
the Jews, the Boundless, the Limitless, the One Source, the
spiritual force field.
The
mathematical codes embedded in Nature affect everything that happens
in Nature progressively as in the Fibonacci sequence where the
follow-up number is the sum total of the previous two numbers (i.e.
1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89,…. etc.) A progression famous
not only because the sum of the adjacent terms equal the next term,
but also because the quotients of the adjacent terms contain the
almost magical property of approaching the ´Divine proportion (i.e.
the number 1.618 or PHI.) The PHI was probably first unravelled by
Thoth (Hermes Trismegistus) the great African inventor of mathematics
and letters, and is manifest in all the masterpieces and stupendous
feats of ancient Egyptian civilization. The pyramids of Egypt, for
instance, had it. The ubiquitous nature of PHI transcends mere
coincidence so ancient Egyptians concluded not only that the PHI was
preordained but also that they had stumbled across ´God´s´
building block for the world. Early scientists heralded the PHI or
1.618 as the Divine Proportion. The uncanny aspect of PHI is its
role as Nature´s fundamental building block. Animals, plants, and
even human beings all possess dimensional proportions that adhere
with eerie exactitude to the ration of PHI to 1.
In
humans, for instance, the distance from the top of the head to the
floor divided by the distance from the belly button to the floor is
PHI. Also, the distance from the shoulder to the finger tips divided
by from the elbow to the fingertips is PHI. The PHI is also in
finger joints, toes and the spinal divisions. In any honeybee
community, the number of female bees divided by the number of male
bees is PHI. The ratio of each spiral diameter to the next in the
pumping of gas into the nautilus chambered shell to adjust its
buoyancy is PHI. Insect segmentation obeys the rule of the Divine
Proportion as do the pinecone petals and leaf arrangement on plant
stalks. PHI is what makes reality natural.
A2)
Osahon´s Theory on Perfection of Things.
Perfection
in nature is achieved when accidental creations evolve to PHI
proportions.
In
fact, reality is ugly, faulty, out of shape, unbalanced, unnatural
without the Divine Proportion. Almost all great creations or
profound works of art and inventions have the PHI embedded in them,
not necessarily always by conscious design. Once the Divine
Proportion is present, whether by accident or otherwise, loud,
subtle, or unobtrusive in dimension, the result is always a
masterpiece, wholesome and beautiful to behold in nature and in other
physical entities. When we say something is a masterpiece, we are
saying that nature could not have done a better job. The near
perfect our creation is, the more it is PHI compliant.
The
Greek temple built in honour of their Gods; the UN building in New
York, have PHI in their architectural dimensions. In music generally,
the melody we get depends on the tonal mix. If we vary the
proportions we get other qualities of rhythms and melodies. The
greatest of them all always have the PHI in their organizational
structures. Mozart´s sonatas, Beethoven´s fifth symphony, Schubert,
Bartok, and Debussy, all adhered strictly to PHI. Stradivarius used
PHI to calculate the exact placement of the F-holes in the
construction of his famous violins.
Leonardo
da Vinci exhumed corpses to confirm the Divine Proportions in human
anatomy. A devout Nature worshipper, he claimed to have had the
alchemic power to turn lead into gold and the elixir of life to
postpone death. He enjoyed taking the mickey out of life and produced
some rare, mind-boggling weapons of death and torture during his
time. He was forever incorporating hidden symbolisms in his art,
most of which were masterpieces. His, the
Vitruvian Man (named in honour
of Marcus Vitruvius, the famous Roman architect who in his book:
Architectura,
praised the Divine Proportion) adhered strictly to PHI. The
Vitruvian Man
consists of a perfect circle around a nude male with arms and legs
outstretched. The circle is the feminine symbol of protection and
when put around a naked man means gender unity and harmony.
Words
and numbers have mystical properties, which ancients manipulated in
PHI proportions to achieve their outlandish feats. Kabbalah draws
heavily from this ancient art through the anagrams-rearrangement of
Hebrew words and letters to derive new meanings. The Romans
described anagrams study as ars
magna, meaning the great art,
and Kings of the French Renaissance relied on anagrams´ magic power
by appointing royal anagrammatists (or words rearrangers and
analyzers) to help facilitate good decision-making.
ATHEISTS.
Atheists jumped on
Darwin´s theory of evolution to argue that God never existed in the
first place or that if He ever did He is now dead. Nietzsche
pronounced God dead and that His death removed an obstacle to man´s
progress. Thomas Altizer and William Hamilton, leading other
Christian Atheists said God became man in Jesus and died. Jean Paul
Sartre argued that if God were to exist, man would have no free will.
That, in any case, the idea of God is a contradiction in terms
because a being cannot be the cause of his own being. It is
impossibility. Ludwig Feuerbach insisted that God is simply man´s
projection of his own best qualities. That when we think we are
worshipping God, we are actually worshipping our nature in its
perfect form. Sigmund Freud is convinced that God is an imaginary
father figure, and described religion as immature delusion. Karl Marx
derided religion as delusion. Humanists call it evasion of grown up
confrontation with life. A belief in progress now, replacing a
belief in paradise tomorrow. August Comte argued that religion
belonged to the primitive phase in the process of the development of
the human mind. According to Comte, ´we are now in the positive age,
that is the age of positive science. The mind of the modern man (the
man in the age of science) is no longer preoccupied with religious
questions or religious explanations of the world.
I
THINK, THEREFORE, I AM. Descartes,
17th
century philosopher, separated humans from other animals in his
dictum, “I think, therefore, I am.” In support, Pope Pius XII
wrote in the encyclical, Humani Generis in 1950 that the Roman
Catholic Church was not against the study of evolution as it relates
to physical traits, but that “Catholic faith obliges us to hold
that souls are immediately created by God.” Pope John Paul II made
similar point in a message to the Pontifical Academy of Sciences (a
Vatican´s advisory group) in which he said that although evolution
had become “more than a hypothesis” in the last couple of years,
considering the mind as emerging merely from physical phenomena is
“incompatible with the truth about man.” But what is the truth
about man?
Evolutionary
biologists and cognitive neuroscientists have begun to find in their
studies of brain structures, physical correlation to feelings like
empathy, disgust and joy, (correlates from which moral sense emerge),
not just in humans but in animals too. The evidence is that moral
reasoning is a result of physical traits that evolve along with
everything else and animals can exhibit emotions and patterns of
cognition like humans. The journal ´Nature,´ in its editorial of
July 2007, said that the idea that human minds are the products of
evolution is unassailable, fact. The journal´s editorial headline
was unequivocal on the issue: “With all difference to the
sensibilities of religious people, the idea that man was created in
the image of God can surely be put aside.”
V.S
Ramachandran, a brain scientist at the University of California, San
Diego, in an interview said there may be a soul in the sense of “the
universal spirit of the cosmos,” but the soul in the soul as it is
usually spoken of, “an immaterial spirit that occupies individual
brains and that only evolved in humans – all that is complete
nonsense.” Richard Dawkins, an evolutionary biologist claims that
“soul along with the rest of religious faith is like a disease”
that evolved because shared belief contribute to group solidarity,
reproduction and survival. Nancy Murphy, a philosopher at Fuller
Theological Seminary says in her book: Bodies and Souls or Spiritual
Bodies? (Cambridge, 2006), that challenges to the uniqueness of
humanity in creation are just as alarming as the Copernican assertion
that Earth is not the center of the universe.” She asserts: “Just
as Copernicus knocked Earth off its celestial pedestal, the new
findings on cognition have displaced people from their strategic
location,“ in creation.
John
F. Haught, a theologian at Georgetown University in an interview
said, “For many Americans, the only way to preserve the
discontinuity that´s implied in the notion of a soul, a distinct
soul, is to deny evolution, which is unfortunate because there is no
credible scientific challenge for the diversity and complexity of
life on earth.” Murphy, an ordained minister in the Church of the
brethren, says it is faulty reasoning to want to distinguish people
from the rest of creation.” He agrees with Haught that it is a
mistake to think that people can be “ensouled” only if other
creatures are soulless. That “evolutionary biology shows the
transition from animal to humans to be too gradual to make sense of
the idea that we humans have souls while animals do not.” Haught,
a Roman Catholic whose book, ´God After Darwin´ (Westview Press,
2000) cites Thomas Aquinas, a 13th
century philosopher and theologian´s ideas of “a vegetative and
animal soul along with the human soul.” While testifying in the
successful challenge by the American Civil Liberties Union against
the teaching of Intelligent design at Dover, Pa USA, Haught said:
“The way I look at it, instead of eliminating the notion of a human
soul in order to make us human fit seamlessly into the rest of
nature, it´s wiser to recognize that there is something analogous to
soul in all living beings. He said further that the proto-human Lucy,
had a soul. All of our hominid ancestors were ensouled in some way,
but that does not rule out the possibility that as evolution
continues, the shape of the soul can vary just as it does from
individual to individual.” He said Descartes distinction between
mind and matter, placing animal world on the side of matter, which is
essentially mindless, is out of vogue in the modern world.
Feelings
and morals evolve. Our
earliest feelings as humans are emotional and appear to derive
initially principally from intimacy, body hugs and similar. The moral
ones begin to develop a little latter and are also influenced at the
early stage by the physical. My neighbour´s baby daughter,
Ebikenameni, is very clever and was in a hurry to crawl, stand and
walk. From very early age, I noticed she smiled easily and I
wondered where that emotion came from so early. Since the first
sound a baby makes out of the womb is to cry, I concluded that both
emotions could be a pair. In a few months, she was crawling and would
crawl away fast, giggling, when she saw me. She appeared to be
amused by my white beard, which was strange in the environment since
I was the only one so bearded. At just under ten months, Ebikenameni
was walking and I wanted to reward her. She ran, almost falling, to
bury her head in her mother´s bosom, but spying me and giggling.
She was apparently teasing me. I offered her money in a lower
denomination note but she ignored it. I went to a higher
denomination note and her mother´s hug and body language ought to
have suggested to her to take the money, but she still didn´t,
although she appeared to be enjoying the show and giggling more
heartily. She had no value for money yet and even her fear of me or
my beard appeared not to be deep. I tricked her, picked her up and
hauled her affectionately to my chest and shoulder. She screamed
resentment but I kept playing with her, patting her on the back,
singing, dancing and talking to her. She gradually accepted my hug,
sucking her fingers, seeming relaxed and comfortable. I returned her
to her mother´s laps and gave her the money she last rejected. She
took it without hesitation but just as quickly dropped it on her
mother´s laps. Mummy´s body language and my friendship had thought
her to accept the money, but as for value, that was Mummy´s problem.
After that incidence, she stopped trying to run away when she saw
me. Instead, she wanted me to carry her so that she could play with
my beards.
People
with domestic animals such as dogs and cats know when their pets are
happy or sad, hungry or not and when they want to play or not. They
also know if their pets like a stranger or not. The pets coil up or
make aggressive or irritating sounds to express their feelings. Their
owners through experience can easily interpret their pets´ language
even when they are not seeing the pets but can hear their voice.
MIND
OVER MATTER. Which came
first, and is spirit ordering matter around? Tu-SoS answers the
first question: “I Thy
Tu-SoS am the Light and the Mind which were before substance was
divided from Spirit and Darkness from Light. I am before the watery
substance, which appeared out of the darkness. I created the cosmos
through the agency of the power of Aeon and it is the manifestation
of this Aeon in the world that imposes order on matter.” -Thoth.
Plato
provides this insightful explanation: “Mind was there before matter
but having become part of matter is constantly seeking to free itself
and return to God” (substitute God with Tu-SoS.) That “soul
originated from God and strives to return to God failing which it
disintegrates in lower bodies. That if there is soul after death, it
must have been there before birth. What we behold is not reality but
image projection of mind and soul on matter.” Plato´s emphasis on
motion was that because things in the universe move and cause others
to move, there must be a source or beginning to all the motions. On
design, he argued that order and purposefulness in the universe
suggests there is a mind or intelligence behind it all. Plato´s
cliché was that, since everyone believes there is God, there must be
God.
Immanuel
Kant (1724 – 1804) argued that cause is not God; otherwise we are
confronted with the problem of infinite causation. Kant described
design as the property of nature. That information is being
exchanged in vacuum all the time. The seed is planted; it links with
air, water, earth and sun of its own volition to grow. It does not
think, the logic is built into the nature of things. One thing leads
on to another to produce something.
Immanuel Kant was
the leader of the supposed German idealist movement, which said:
“why bother about matter when all we can ever know is mental.” He
argued that it is not possible to prove God´s existence by reason or
argument but that we can conceptualize the one wholeness of the
universe and embody it. That even though our idea of God is
transcendent, it is a necessary anchor for morality in society
St.
Thomas Aquinas belaboured the issues of motion, efficient causality,
the contingency of finite beings and capped these with the various
grades of perfection argument, with the ultimate perfection being
God. Aristotle too was preoccupied with the idea of the ´First or
the Unmoved mover´ and the dimension that if there is good, there
must be better followed by the best and that the best is divine. St.
Augustine, like Aristotle, was trapped in the notion of good, better
and best. He added that since truth is not something created by man
and since the mind discovers and accepts it, truth must be superior
to the mind and superior means more excellent. He dwelt too on the
teleological argument that order, harmony, beauty and splendour
indicates God´s existence.
The
Renaissance thinkers compounded man´s confusion. Rene Descartes
tried to separate the scientific universe from the spiritual need for
freedom. He believed that God as an idea exists in the mind and that
the mind is separate from the body. He said, God is omniscient,
omnipotent, truth, all goodness, eternal and self-caused so whatever
He puts into man, including ideas must be real. Descartes failed to
explain how mind influences the body and God influences matter, if
each (in a pair) does not relate with the other. Descartes believed
that evil is caused by ignorance because God gave man incomplete
facilities to distinguish between good and evil. Nicholas
Cusa and Jacob Boehme believed that God could be found not through
reason but intuitive mystical
knowledge. Giordano Bruno, who
at the instigation of the Inquisition in 1600 was roasted at the
stake, asserted God´s immanence in the cosmic reality, uniting all
opposites, being without opposites, and impossible to fathom by the
mind. Francis Bacon
separated science from
religion and split religion into (a) natural theology, which he
believed could provide nothing more than proof of God´s existence
through study and (b) revealed theology, which he said compels
obedience to the divine law “though our reason is shocked at it.”
Thomas
Hobbes believed
that although God is corporeal, His nature cannot be fathomed.
Hobbes ignored the question about whether God started the universe or
not until after his trouble with the Church of France where he had
escaped as a royalist, and announced that the Christian God was the
Prime Mover. Baruch Spinoza
a
Dutch Jew excommunicated
from the Amsterdam Synagogue in 1656 for his pantheist views believed
that God had no identity, brain, consciousness or function, although
all things relate to Him in strict law of nature. Insisting on the
perfection of God, he declared that God and nature are one, and that
God is the summation of all substances. All human thoughts in the
world make up God´s thoughts. Since everything is in God, mind and
matter are simply two aspects of one entity otherwise they have
nothing in common. His idea was described as a kind of
psychophysical parallelism. Purely idealists, insist that what is
real is the immaterial spiritual world and not the physical world
which is unreal. They also believe that mind is synonymous with
soul, which is superior to the body, because mind continues to exist
after death. Science has confirmed that mind, soul or spirit,
continues to exist after death.
Bishop
Berkeley, an idealist, believed
that because we have nothing to go by but sensation is no reason to
assume that matter exists. He insisted that what exists is
perceived, therefore, a tree does not exist if no one is looking at
it. That God who sees everything prevents objects from vanishing
when we are not looking. That the world is not a material but
cerebral or spiritual creation of God. David
Hume believed that human reason
is inadequate to prove God´s existence but that belief in God is
necessary as the basis of morality, hope and society. That
sensational experience is not enough evidence of the existence of
matter or even mind. Hegel saw
God as a developing process from “the Absolute” or First cause to
the highest expression in man´s mind or reason. God most profoundly
realizes Himself in man he argues and that the universe is evolving
towards self-awareness and man´s redemption, but within the purview
of societal freedom. Even God Himself achieves full consciousness
and self-realization only through the minds of free individuals.
Materialists
insist that matter is the primary stuff, mind is secondary. Arnold
Guelincxs argued
that body and mind are each “wound up” from the beginning by God
in the same way “two clocks” could be wound up to keep time with
each other. Therefore, when the desire to walk strikes, unrelated
physical sensations in the legs compel action at the same time.
Science has confirmed that it is the spirit (or ethereal double) that
co-ordinates the organs of the body through the spine. That mind and
body are separate but animated by the spirit co-coordinating energy.
Prof.
J.I. Omoregbe: (in the Nigerian Journal of Philosophy Vol. 3, Nos.
1&2, 1983) had this to say about God´s definition in classical
philosophy in “….the transcendent, eternal, absolutely perfect
and immutable God of classical philosophy, impressive as it appears
is too remote from man and too indifferent to the human predicament
to be satisfactory to the human heart. That may be the God of the
intellect but not of the heart. Such a God would be indifferent to
human behaviour and could have no real relation with man.”
The
pantheistic view of God forces Omoregbe to ask: “Why is it that
individual consciousness is itself unconscious of its self as part of
universal consciousness?” He says “Paul Tillich´s Being hardly
portrays God as personal and conscious, nor can such God relate to
man. We have seen too that the suffering, struggling and evolving
deity of process philosophy, caught as he is, in a cosmic process,
which seems to be crushing him, appears too weak to satisfy either
the mind or the heart.”
Both
the classical and process philosophers on the one hand and the
pantheists on the other are looking at different sides of the same
coin. The real problem with their views concerns human ego, which
assumes falsely that man is the most important element in creation.
Tu-SoS didn´t even create us. We came through a third party agent.
There is a spirit nature to Tu-SoS, of course, and this incorporates
humans and other animate elements but there is also nature´s need to
ensure harmony between animate and inanimate elements. That is why
Tu-SoS is in every atom. The inanimate element, Sun, for instance, is
more important than man or anything else on earth because without the
Sun, the earth is dead. Nature´s major pre-occupation is with
cosmic harmony and not with individual suffering, animate or
inanimate, which is necessary, in any case, for individual
evolutionary growth and universal re-generation.
Nothing
is static or permanent, suffering and pains force necessary change,
tempered principally by the degree of karmic debts. Man has the
discretion on how to avoid natural disasters such as earthquakes,
floods, by moving out of the area. Pains of the metaphysical type
tend to result from man´s fear of the unknown and of the deities
with their terroristic antics. Most non-natural problems are
man-made. Man brings sufferings on the self or others out of
jealousy, poor spiritual knowledge, bad habits, or to even scores.
It is not the business of Tu-SoS to stop man from eating broken
bottles, or hurting his wife, or cutting off his neighbour´s legs in
a fight. All that nature can do, is provide control factors or laws
like karma, to promote universal harmony.
As
to the issue that individual consciousness does not feel part of
Universal consciousness, this is relative and actually a matter of
degrees. Universal consciousness is the ultimate evolutionary
spiritual growth ideal of all animate elements including man. The
ant, cow or elephant do not have the same degree of consciousness as
man and even among men all fingers are not equal. The adepts and
most geniuses (few in relative terms to human population but growing)
feel part of universal consciousness, which is yet in the future for
the rest of mankind, and more so for ants, cows and elephants.
The
ultimate ambition of philosophy is to reconcile notion with reality.
To explain the essence; to see and define Tu-SoS. From what we have
said so far, it is obvious that logic is not enough to explain
´Tu-SoS´ or unravel universal reality. What people who call
themselves philosophers are engaged in are speculative exercises
difficult to permanently and comprehensively settle without the help
of other branches of knowledge, particularly the sciences. Philosophy
can provide the hypothesis on which to serve truth in segments
through scientific regours. In other words, the positions of
philosophers are mere hypothesis until collaborated by other areas of
science. Acclaimed philosophers themselves define philosophy as an
act of interpretation of the non-immediate world, perpetually driven
by dialectised auto-criticism. They claim that to philosophize is to
create a conception of a world through continued questioning and not
allowing certainty to prevail. They agree that the existence of God
can neither be proved nor be disproved and that the question of God´s
existence, therefore, remains a matter of belief and not of
philosophical or scientific demonstration.
If
philosophy means not agreeing on the ultimate ground of truth, value,
and reality, as is the case at present, then what is the use of
philosophy and why do men pretend to be profound thinkers? Tribal
speculations or logic dressed, as African, Greek, Indian, Asian or
other similar pre-occupations are partial to absolute universal
reality, truth and value, and so are metaphilosophies, meaning work
in progress towards ultimate scientific/cosmic reality. Ultimate
cosmic truth is all embracing and abhors sectionalism whether
religious, tribal, political or environmental. We are all from one
truth, one common reality or source. Sentiments such as racial,
tribal, gender, age, education, place of birth, career or social
status have no value in cosmic consciousness. What counts in the end
is the cosmic reality commonly shared. Ultimate truth is
incontrovertible and belongs to Tu-SoS (The Ultimate Source of
Spirituality) apparently. Therefore, until man meets Tu-SoS face to
face and Tu-SoS answers all the nagging questions about the reality
of being, man is practicing metaphilosophy. Metaphysics, ontologies
and what have you, are simply those and not philosophy, which in lay
man´s language ought to lead to profound revelations.
Heidegger,
undaunted repeated in his book Being and Time, Leibniz´s famous
question: ´´Why is there anything rather than nothing? Kant says
we cannot see things as they really are because we impart our
structures to experience, so we bar the way to the noumenon with our
own inner categories. Bonn says: “We are the noumenon, so there
is a way out of Kant´s trap. At least, I am of the noumenon.”
Meister Eckhart, one of the
greatest mystics the West has produced asked: “Why do you prate of
God? Don´t you know that whatever you say of him is untrue? There
is nothing in all the universe so much like God as silence. I pray
to God to keep me from God because we have no language to describe
ultimate reality.” Ilya Prigogine, a Russian, and the 1977 Nobel
Laureate in chemistry; author of From being to becoming: Time and
Complexity in the Physical Sciences, 1980; was very specific and
adamant when he asked: “If the world is deterministic in the
classical sense, what is our role in this world? Is it to play a
part, which has been predicted but is unknown to us? This is even
more difficult for me to accept. That without knowing it, we are a
kind of lower machine. We are just following some master plan, which
has not been communicated to us. We are just conditioned to follow
it. This seems to me even repulsive.”
Rener
Weber, the author of Dialogues with Scientists and Sages: the search
for unity, tells us that: “in splitting the atom, the physicist
releases vast amounts of energy that was needed to hold the core of
the atom together, its binding power. Weber says: “while some
scientists seem to think, God is in the details, mystics claim that
God is the circle whose center is every where and whose circumference
is no where. While scientists look for the boundaries of nature,
mysticism seeks its unboundedness. If science is the droplet of the
ocean, mysticism is the wave. While science works to explain the
mystery of being, mysticism experience it. Both look for the basic
truth about matter and the source of matter.”
The
mystic, for instance, is engaged in splitting his self-centered ego
and the three-dimensional thinking that sustains it. The ego, like
the atom, coheres in time through its binding power. What Buddha
called the aggregates (Shandhas) that make up our personality.
Spinoza, the most mystical of modern western philosophers says that
this high-energy state is the true unfoldment of the human potential,
a health-giving mode of being…..or blessedness. Merely to be in
that state is its own reward. Mysticism is the experiencing of
oneness with nature or universal reality. Space to the mystic is not
empty because we all partake in nature. Emptiness implies
selfishness and no one is an island unto himself. Mystics believe
that to be spiritually free, one must avoid attachment to anything.
We can use things but must not become slaves to them. That what you
get is what you give and you cannot take without giving back.
In
the Hindu tradition, God is knowledge, bliss, a state of pure
consciousness leading to ultimate bliss. They call this satchit. To
achieve this state needs withdrawal into the self. There is nothing
to ask the outside. One only needs to clear away avidya i.e.,
ignorance on the way to bliss. The central tenet of the mystics´
outlook is compassion and love for all. That is, to make a
deliberate attempt to help reduce the burden of the suffering around
us. The mystics´ pre-occupation with helping the suffering is
touching and logical because by helping others we help ourselves.
This is karma linked with the survival instinct of man and the law of
cosmic harmony. However, some amount of suffering is inevitable and
probably necessary because without it life could be boring and would
be difficult to appreciate.
Mystics
believe nature is simple, elegant and beautiful but cannot fully
interpret it. After thousands of years of searching, they still
cannot string the words together to explain nature. Buddhists or
Jainists, for instance, do not name God (Tu-SoS) or accept a creator.
Everything is in the mind they say. We create ourselves. The law
of cause and effect i.e., karma, governs life. The inner sanctuary
of the Hindu Temple is always dark. Light fills the surrounding
courts of the temple but the heart of the temple, which is the deep
center of your essence or being, is dark.
That
is where you meet God without form. Darkness is equated with
consciousness and God is hidden in its depth. Relating to God
through love and devotion is called Bhakti. Jnana is realizing your
unity or oneness with God through knowledge and contemplation.
Spiritualists
divide the Spiritual
force field into five
plateaus for man. What they call the Astral
field is at the lowest
level or at the bottom near earth. This is the field of magic,
witchcraft, technology and negativism generally. Most religious
leaders of the world operate only up to this level and can hardly
ever rise beyond it. All religious followers and the generality of
mankind are controlled mentally and physically from this realm by
Extraterrestrial Beings and other man made Gods and deities of the
tribes. The next plane is the Causal
field or the plateau of the
karmic law. In other words, the cause and effect region of the
spiritual realm. This iron-clad natural law insists that you reap
what you sew. The third region is the Ethereal
field where all records are
kept. It is like a museum of all the happenings in the universe and
our individual ethereal double links with it. To be able to reach
this realm and further, we must synchronize our physical with our
spiritual bodies through informed cleansing habits, fasting, ritual
meditation and the process of alchemy. The fourth level is the Mental
field for creators,
innovators, geniuses. These are people we recognize as sages, the
wise ones or scientific wizards etc. The plane is separated from the
final one (i.e. the Soul plane) by a dark void. Anyone who manages
to break through the dark void and survives is illuminated and
emerges into the final plane of light. The Soul
plane is the final plane
and the region of bliss. That is why spiritualists say Tu-SoS
is the Supreme enjoyer. In the Soul plane, you lose all need of care
and fear. You lack for nothing. Whatever you ask you get. You are
a god among men. Tu-SoS virtually takes you by the hand to all the
wonderful hidden paradises of the universe. The few able to get
there, continue their spiritually disciplined lives to be able to
return to the abode of spiritual bliss at will.
The
mystic wants to enter the heart of nature; the scientist thinks he is
entering already – breaking down truth systematically. Scientist
Max Planck, insist that science cannot solve the ultimate mystery of
nature because in the last analysis, we ourselves are part of nature
and, therefore, part of the mystery that we are trying to solve.
Bohm´s response is that because man in some sense is a microcosm of
the universe, what man is, is a clue to the universe. Stephen
Hawkin, one of today´s leading scientists, is not impressed. He
describes mysticism as a cop-out. According to him, “If you find
theoretical physics and mathematics too hard, you turn to mysticism.
The whole idea of a scientific theory is that it produces a definite
logical model and definite predictions. On the other hand mysticism
clouds it with obscurity. It does not make any definite
predictions.”
Father
Bede Griffiths, English by birth, Roman Catholic monk and Tibetan
Buddhist scholar tells us: “That things have changed tremendously
since the Vatican Council. It opened the doors. The challenge now
is to create a new theology, which will marry the findings of modern
science with relevant ancient mysticism to evolve a new theology.
The new theology must ally itself with contemporary science, with
quantum physics, including Einstein´s physics.”
Prof.
J.I. Omoregbe insists that: “if religion says there is a spiritual
soul in man, this is not in conflict with the findings of biology or
physiology. If religion says electrons, neutrons and protons were
brought into existence (or created) by God, this would be in conflict
with findings of physics.
Science cannot answer all the
nagging questions about God without the collaboration of religion.”
Omoregbe raises the following succinct questions, which this book
answers.
(i)
What is the purpose of human life? Why is man in the world? The
answer would appear to be the same as why ants or trees are in the
world. The climate or atmosphere is conducive whereas on another
planet, such as the Moon, we would not be able to exist in our
present form at least.
(ii)
Is man purely material or is there an immaterial, spiritual element
in his being. There is a spiritual element or double.
(iii)
Does human life continue in another form after death? Yes, as
spirit.
(iv)
Is there a spiritual world, distinct from the physical world we know?
Yes, in parallel orbit with our world, and duplicating our world
like a shadow. However, stranded spirits live with us in our world.
(v)
Does the universe owe its existence to any being outside it and
distinct from it? No, but there is a spirit force field. The fifth
energy in creation.
(vi)
How ought we to behave to one another in the world? To love one
another and nature, if we do not want nature to go out of balance
sooner than later. A good example is the current problem of climate
change, threatening too soon to destroy existence as we know it,
because of human greed and carelessness.
IS
SOUL SPIRIT? Dr.
Idoniboye, in my book (The end of knowledge) from which this article
is adapted, argued that mind is soul and that soul is the animated
part of spirit. This appears to be the belief of most people,
including in the scientific world.
(B)
Osahon´s Theory on Soul, Mind and Spirit.
Soul
is synonymous with the mind and is the animated twin of spirit which
activates it. Soul is in the body, spirit is attached. While spirit
can detach from its body at will, soul cannot. It is the spirit´s
magnetic chain link until the body dies when they become one again.
Spirit is secretive. It is not everything it knows, it tells the soul
through dreams.
I
know this because my spirit was wooing a wife for me some 400 or more
miles away from my base without me and the lady in question knowing
each other. Details are provided in ´My spiritual odyssey´ chapter
of my book. The lady, Ngozi by name, was able to describe exactly
what I looked like before sending to me that she wants to move in
with me as my wife. The message came to me out of the blues but when
I checked spiritually, it was confirmed that she was my wife and that
we would have two children together. She was murdered a few days
before she was to join me. The point here is that my mind or soul
did not know about the escapades of my spirit. My spirit would leave
me in bed at night, travel hundreds of miles to sleep on the same bed
with Ngozi, to comfort her in her travails at the time.
A
very wicked witch continuously viciously attacked me for almost three
years from Benin Republic. Diviners there have an association so on
the 2nd
and again the 7th
July, 2009, my Mama-maven reported the witch to them at 2.00 am at
night. The association´s leadership caucus invited my spirit to
tell them about my spiritual mission for the African race, on both
occasions. I gave on each occasion resounding lectures that received
loud and warm applause. I did not know about my spirit´s activities
until the morning after when Mama-maven told me.
Theories
on Origin of Things:
There
is a conscious aspect to all atom (a peculiarly fixed intelligence)
linking with all the conscious properties of the entire cosmos to
form a universal energy
field with the properties
of
electromagnetism, gravity, strong and weak nuclear as
its ultimate
arsenal in a unified state.
This is Tu-SoS
or En-Sof of
the Jews, the Boundless, the Limitless, the One Source, the
spiritual force field. All
forms gain certain capacities as they evolve through mineral,
vegetable and animal kingdoms. Humans are spirits at the lowest level
of the spiritual energy field. We are not separate individuals but
part of a spiritual network held together in our environment by
ether´s energy field. The human experience go through cycles of
birth and death incarnating in a variety of tribal groups and
cultures to gain higher capacities to understand the laws latent
within man and of the Grand
Unification, or (Tu-SoS)
or the fifth
energy law, which man is
still grappling to unravel.
Timidly,
science claims, tongue in cheek, that 10 – 20 billion years ago,
compressed, highly dense hydrogen matter exploded from its own core
pressure and created showers of still expanding galaxies. Einstein´s
theory of General Relativity has for decades served physicists as the
best model of the origin theories. Known as the Big
Bang Theory, it refers
narrowly to a point in time when the observed expansion of the
universe (Hubble´s law) began, and generally to the prevailing
cosmological paradigm explaining the origin of evolution of the
universe. The idea is that the universe erupted with a Big Bang
explosion. The components of the Big Bang theory include, gravity,
electromagnetism, strong and weak nuclear, four energies referred to
in scientific circles as the
standard model.
GRAVITY
This
is the natural attraction of bodies. In physics, we learn that there
is a universal tendency for every body to move towards every other
body. Every particle is attracted towards the centre of the earth by
the force of gravity. According to J. Duncan and S. G. Starling in:
A text book of physics,
Macmillan and Co. Ltd, London, 1958:
“Every particle of matter attracts every other particle towards
itself with a force in the direction of the line joining the
particles. The forces of attraction between bodies of small or
moderate sizes are very small, but when one of both bodies is large,
the forces become evident without the necessity for employing
delicate means for their detection. What we call the weight of a
body is really the attraction force which the earth exerts on the
body, tending to cause the body to approach the earth´s centre. The
term gravitation is
applied to this universal attraction.” What is attracting to a
centre of force or forces of attraction acting on each other is
gravity. Gravity creates a centre. It holds steady at a point. In
the simple example of a ruler, the centre of gravity is the point of
support when the ruler is balanced horizontally.
Every
particle in a body possesses weight; hence the gravitational effect
exerted on any body consists of several forces directed towards the
centre of the earth. The centre of gravity is equivalent to the
centre of mass. The centre of mass of an object is the point where
the total mass acts. Except for very large objects, the centre of
mass is situated at the same place as the centre of gravity.
Newton
was first to suggest that the mass of an object is the quantity of
matter in it. This definition was considered too vague until 1905,
when Einstein came up with his theory of General Relativity, showing
that the energy W released from an object when its mass decreases by
an amount m, is: W=mc2
where c is the numerical value of the velocity of light. When m is
in grams and c is in cm. per sec., then W is in ergs. Experiments in
radioactivity on objects emitting radiation confirm Einstein´s law
that the mass of an object is a measure of the energy of its atoms.
The
position of the centre of gravity of combined objects is determined
by applying the law to moments for parallel forces because the
weights are parallel forces. The law states that “the moment of
the resultant (total) weight about any point equals the algebraic sum
of the moment, in the same direction, of the separate weights about
the same point.
Our
knowledge of gravity developed from observations of the planets. The
motions of the planets were carefully studied and recorded by African
Egyptian priests/scientists for thousands of years, enabling them to
predict fairly accurately the movements of the stars and other
planetary bodies. Babylonian and Greek students gained the knowledge
later from studies in the Egyptian African mysteries. The earth was
for centuries considered the centre of the universe until about 1542
CE when Copernicus suggested that the planets were revolving round
the sun as centre. Of course, the idea was immediately shot down by
the Roman Catholic Church dominating the world with religion at the
time. Advance in the knowledge was made by Kepler about 1609 CE,
after he had studied the records and observations of the planets made
by Tycho Brahe. Kepler initially came up with two laws, adding a
third, ten years later in 1619. The laws are:
- The planets describe ellipses about the sun as one focus.
- The line joining the sun and the planets sweeps out equal areas in equal times.
- The squares of the periods of revolution of the planets are proportional to the cubes of their main distance from the sun.
Newton´s
law of Gravitation. Newton
was born on Christmas day in 1642. He died in 1727. Around 1666, at
the age of 24, Isaac Newton discovered the universal law of
gravitation. It all started when he observed a fruit fall from a
tree. At that very moment, a wave of creative perception forced him
to gasp and infer that the moon was falling too. That the earth´s
gravity made fruits or things fall downwards rather than upward or
sideways. That every object exerted a force, known as gravity on all
the surrounding objects. That it was the sun´s gravity that was
pulling the earth, which was smaller, towards it. As a result of
this gravitational force, the earth moved in a curved orbit around
the sun.
To
arrive at his theories, he considered the motion of a planet moving
in a circle around the sun as centre. He believed that the force
acting on the planet of mass m is mrw2,
where r is the radius of the circle and w is the angular velocity of
the motion, and that this force is equal to the force of attraction
of the sun on the planet. Kepler had showed earlier that the squares
of the periods of revolution of the planets are proportional to the
cubes of their mean distances from the sun. Newton thus assumed that
the force between the sun and the planet was inversely proportional
to the square of the distance between them. Newton then proceeded to
test the inverse-square law by applying it to the moon´s motion
round the earth. The moon´s period of revolution T, around the earth
is approximately 27.3 days, and the force on it = mRw2,
where R is the radius of the moon´s orbit and m is it´s mass.
Newton summed up his discovery as follows: “The force of
attraction between two given masses is inversely proportional to the
square of their distance apart.”
According
to J. Duncan and S. G. Starling in Text
book of physics,
“gravitational force travel with the speed of light. If the
gravitational force between the sun and earth were suddenly to
disappear by the vanishing of the sun, it would take about 7 minutes
for the effect to be experience on the earth, which would then fly
along a tangent to its original curved path….. “
Gravitational
effect takes place over unlimited distances; thus the force of
attraction which the sun exerts on the earth causes the earth to
describe an orbit round the sun. The force of attraction between two
small bodies is proportional to the product of their masses, and is
inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
ELECTROMAGNETISM
This
is the science which deals with the properties of electricity in
producing and communicating a magnetic force. The energy is not
visible to the naked eyes but space is filled with it. For example,
radio wave is an aspect of the energy. You can tune and receive as
loud a noise of a radio programme thousands of kilometers away from
source as if you are at the point of origination. Even particles
within space are charged too with this energy. Electromagnetism
energizes particles to produce living organisms, which are themselves
made of electrons and atoms. Life and non-life are, therefore, not
opposed in nature. Since “not everything is living, not everything
is dead, order and disorder are generated through the irreversible
process of duality of order and disorder,” says Prigogine.
In
1973, Prigogine shocked the world with his mathematical calculations
suggesting that black holes (i.e., areas within space and time where
the force of gravity is extremely strong and light can not escape so
they appear to be invisible) were not empty or spent matter after
all. That black holes could, in fact, ´explode,´ emitting streams
of particles. Prigogine suggested that matter that may appear dead
(i.e., rock or the rust of a sheet or metal) is in a state of
equilibrium. That such matter is blind or disordered hypnons. That
such hypnons are actually surrounded by other particles with
short-range (electrical) forces resulting in pushes and pulls. That
it is such dissipation in structures that introduce constant
creativity in nature. Prigogine´s theory described as the Arrow
of Time says: “An
organism is born, develops to maturity, and dies – it has a history
which can be disregarded in subatomic particles but not in living
organisms. Living systems can, to some degree, escape entropy
through their capacity for self-organization. In them a higher order
not predicted by entropy can emerge out of the dead end of chaos.”
Broglies
tells us that particle is an electron (i.e., a negatively charged
particle within the atom) with a field of electromagnetic energy
around it. The activities of the field do not depend on its strength
or intensity but on its relation with other fields.
Rupert
Sheldrake (author of A New
Science of Life: the hypothesis of formative causation)
adds what he calls the anthropomorphic concept of space and time. He
says that in quantum mechanics there are fields of information in the
wave function and super quantum fields, which organize the quantum
field itself. That these fields are not in space-time but in this
multidimensional space, at least, mathematically. That when the
space-time meanings and the super (electric) wave function field
contact each other, all sorts of relevant meanings could result.
Specifically, Rupert Sheldrake has a hypothesis he calls
morphogenetic fields, which he says are responsible for the
development of form. He says heredity in living organisms involves
not only genes and DNA but also morphogenetic fields. These fields
are derived from past organisms of the same species through the
process he calls morphic resonance. They are not fixed fields. They
keep adapting from recorded new information blended with the old.
Sheldrake
uses the TV and Radio sets to illustrate his field. He says “the
sounds that come out of the radio or TV set depend both on the
correct arrangement of the wires and on the field to which the
transmission is tuned. If you change the wires and transistors, you
will change the tuning. You may get a different station or a
distorted reception of the normal one. Similarly, the eggs, the DNA
and the proteins it gives rise to, set up the tuning characteristics
of the species. That is what tunes the system in to that particular
morphogenetic field. The transmitter is the morphogenetic field.”
The
morphogenetic field of a particular plant makes it possible for its
seed to derive its energy and nutrients from the sun, air, soil, and
water to transform into that plant rather than into any other plant
species or a cat or a dog. Mechanistic biology describes something
similar to the morphogenetic field as genetic programme. Sheldrake
says the difference between the two is that if the DNA in all the
cells of the body were following one genetic programme; they wouldn´t
develop differently to produce the eyes, ears, kidney and liver.
That the DNA provides the bricks and mortar with which the organism
is built and the morphogenetic fields assemble these into particular
patterns and shapes.
David
Bohm describes all the waves in space as a holomovement. He says all
existence is basically a holomovement, which folds and unfolds, in a
perpetual dance of creating and recreating. That the holomevement is
constantly renewing itself and absorbing new ideas to adapt to
environment and situations. Therefore, the holomovement is not
static like the Platonic and Aristotelian equivalent but dynamic and
spawning out new forms and species all the time. Bohm says something
similar to the holomovement is recognized and called the unitary
transformation in quantum mechanics; it treats the particles as the
Quantisized State of the field spread over space with a quantum of
energy. Each wave in the field has a certain quantum of energy
proportional to its frequency. What is manifest (i.e., all the
entities, cells, atoms including humans) are in the implicate order
of the holomovement. There are higher orders not visible to our
senses which he calls super implicate.
Many
other electromagnetic waves have been suggested but perhaps the most
ancient and popular of them all is the one associated with karma.
The idea is that our past, present and future actions are recorded in
the belly of the universe which serves as a data bank. The data bank
functions like a computer. Obviously, it does not think but has
active information as we have, at least, at the level of unconscious
thought. Each of us is a system of living cells. The chemical
properties of atoms and molecules are determined by their electron
shells. All particles are charged with the electromagnetic field.
Biochemical reactions in our body take place because of
electromagnetic interaction. It is also responsible for everyday
activities such as a ball thrown to the ground, bouncing back, or a
vehicle moving and braking.
Oersted,
a pioneer of the magnetic effect on current, discovered the magnetic
effect of the electric current in 1820 CE. He suspected a
relationship between electricity and magnetism and set out to prove
it. In the course of his experiments he, by chance, passed a lead
wire carrying a current over, but parallel to, a compass-needle, the
needle was deflected. After achieving the same result a few more
times, he led the wire under the needle and it was deflected in the
opposite direction so he concluded that “the electric conflict
performs gyrations.” To get a clear result, a strong current is
needed, and must be passed close to the wire, to minimize the effect
of the earth´s field. It is then seen that the lines of force are
circles, concentric with the wire.
Ampere´s
or Laplace law. A general
expression for the magnetic intensity at a point due to a small
element of a conductor carrying a current was provided by Ampere and
Laplace.
Faraday,
building on this, decided to find the converse. He began work on the
problem in 1825. The apparatus he used consisted of two coils of
insulated wire wound on a wooden core. One coil was connected to a
galvanometer, the other to a battery. No current flowed through the
galvanometer despite several trials, but when the battery was
disconnected, Faraday noticed, by chance, a “kick” by the
galvanometer needle. When the battery was connected back again,
there was a “kick” in the opposite direction. Every time the
experiment was repeated, the result was the same so, Faraday
concluded that the “kick,” although momentary, was not
accidental. He spent the next six years looking for a steady
current, which he found in 1831.
Faraday´s
experiments showed that a current flowed in coil only while the
magnetic field due to coil was changing. The field building up as
the current was switched on and decaying as the current was switched
off. The current which flowed while the field was decaying was in
the opposite direction to the current which flowed while the field
was building up. Faraday called the current an ´induced current.´
He found that it could be made much greater by winding the two coils
on an iron core, instead of a wooden one.
Once
he discovered that ´induced current ´ was produced only by a change
in the magnetic field inducing it, he was able to find it every time
he tried. In place of the coil, he used a magnet; and showed that as
long as the coil and the magnet were at rest, there was no ´induced
current.´ But when he moved either the coil or the magnet, an
induced current flowed as long as the motion continued. If the
current flowed one way when the North Pole of the magnet was
approaching the coil to the north, it flowed the other way when the
North Pole was retreating in the direction of the South Pole.
Light
Waves. Light waves are
electromagnetic waves. The vibrations of light are electromagnetic
in origin; a varying electric force with a varying magnetic force
which has the same frequency and phase. In 1905, Einstein suggested
that the energy in light could be carried from place to place by
particles whose mass depended on the wavelength of the light.
Experiments confirmed the theory. The particles of light energy are
known as “photons.” It is now considered that either the wave
theory or the particle
theory of light can be used
in a problem of light, depending on the circumstance in the problem.
Light
is a form of radiation measurable by a spectroscope. The electric
force in a light wave affects a photographic plate and causes
fluorescence, while the magnetic force, though present, plays no part
in this effect of a light wave. Wavelength is the distance between
the peak of two successive waves and the length of electromagnetic
wave (adopted by a transmitting station.) Wavelength of
electromagnetic waves include rays which affect the sensation of
vision (visible rays); rays which cause heat (infra-red); and rays
which cause chemical action (ultra-violet rays.) As these rays are
all due to electric and magnetic vibrations, they are examples of
electromagnetic waves.
According
to M. Nelkon and P. Parker: Advanced
level Physics, Williams
Heinemann Ltd., London, 1958, “Scientists have measured the
wavelengths of these waves by a diffraction grating method, and
results show a gradual transition in the magnitudes of the wavelength
from one type of ray to another. Thus, infra-red rays have a longer
wavelength than visible rays, which in turn have a longer wavelength
than ultra-violet rays. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves of
longer wavelength than infra-red rays, while X-rays and Y-rays are
due to waves of shorter wavelengths than ultra-violet waves.
Infra-red
(popularly known as heat-rays) was discovered in 1800 by Sir William
Herschel when he moved the blackened bulb of a thermometer into the
shadow beyond the red of the visible spectrum of the sun. He noticed
an increased reading on the thermometer. “Infra-red rays are
fundamentally the same in nature as rays of the visible spectrum but
do not cause the sensation of vision when incident on the eye. Since
they are not scattered by fine particles as much as the rays of the
visible spectrum, infra-red rays are able to penetrate fog and mist,
and with the aid of filters and special infra-red photographic
plates, clear pictures of the country side have been taken in dense
mist. Infra-red photography has also been used at the British Museum
to decipher the writing on ancient monuments, and to see clearly,
pictures of ancient works of art, which have been covered with grime
not easily removed.
“About
1801, Ritter discovered the existence of invisible rays beyond the
violet end of the visible spectrum; these are known as infra-violet
rays. Photographic plates are darkened by infra-violet rays as the
rays decompose the silver compound covering them, and they cause
certain materials to fluoresce. Metal plates emit electrons when
illuminated by ultra-violet light. Quartz prisma must be used in the
investigation of the properties of the rays, as ordinary glass
absorbs ultra-violet rays.”
Cathode-ray
tube is an instrument used in television and radar to enable
variations of potential difference, or voltage, to be made visual on
a screen.
Scientists
have confirmed that not every thing we see as solid in the universe
is really so. Matter is a collection of energy. The universe is not
in space as we think, but duplicates space. Solid atoms as a force
field was recognized with the discovery of X-rays, radiation from
uranium and radium, and betrays, and the idea of physical ´solid
matter´ changed to illusion.
With
scientific proof that the atom is a non-material collection of
invisible forces moving around a centre at incredible speeds, we now
know that the ´solid things we see, feel or perceive are mere
invisible energies moving beyond our power of observation. Space and
universe are the same and is filled with atomic and spiritual
particles uniting and impregnating all forms and consciousness.
Louis
de Brogilies introduced the new dimension of knowledge with his
discovery that the electron was a non-material wave and not a
particle. The universe instantly became less perfunctory and
predictable. Studies have shown that the waves do not follow
sensible ´ether.´ Light too, functions without vibrations in
´ether.´ Frequency determines the activities of the intangible
wave because in thermodynamics every object gives off heat. Material
substance and form affect vibrational pattern. .
Generating
energy at the speed of light. Einstein
postulated that it was impossible to travel beyond the speed of
light, which is 297,000 km/sec. According to the theory of
relativity in physics, as one moves faster and faster, one´s time
rates slows down and the distance gets smaller, and as one approaches
very high speeds, one´s own internal time and distance becomes less.
Therefore, if one were to achieve infinite or zero speed (i.e. no
speed, no space, no time) one could reach from one end of the
universe to the other without moving from one´s spot or changing in
age.
G.L.
Lewis, a physical chemist was first to formulate the theory in the
1920s. He demonstrated that as an object approaches the speed of
light in relativity terms, its internal space and time change so that
the clocks slow down relative to other speeds, and the distance is
shortened. The two ends of the light ray would have no time between
them and no distance and so would represent immediate contact.
While
light to our senses seems to be empty and silent, in reality the
silence and emptiness have ripples. The spaces between the ripples
are not empty either. David Bohm describes the emptiness, which we
perceive as a plenum thus: “If you take a crystal, which is at
absolute zero it does not scatter electrons. They go through it as
if it were empty and as soon as you raise the temperature and
(produce) inhomogeneities they scatter. Now if you used those
electrons to observe the crystal (e.g. by focusing them with an
electron lens to make an image) all you would see would be these
little inhomogeneities and you would say they are what exist and the
crystal is what does not exist. What we see immediately is not all
there is.”
Light
has energy, form, structure, and contains information, but has no
mass. It transforms aspects of itself into particles to use to reveal
itself. While its rays are moving back and forth at its own high
speed relatively, it freezes all energies and particles moving bellow
its speed into a pattern.
Matter
(i.e., the substance of the universe, is composed of tiny particles
known as atoms, which are joined together to form different chemical
compounds) is therefore frozen light. David Bohm says: “Light is
not mere electromagnetic waves but in a sense other kinds of waves
that go at that speed. Therefore, all matter is a condensation of
light into patterns moving back and forth at average speeds, which
are less than the speed of light. Even Einstein had some hint of
that idea. “You could say that when we come to light, we are
coming to the fundamental activity in which existence has its ground,
or at least coming close to it.”
Bohm
says: “The cosmos may be a certain age, the present idea of the
universe may represent some age of the universe of light. The
universe of light is eternal as far as we are concerned, but as a
certain stage some of these light rays got together and made the Big
Bang and unfoldment into our universe of light which will have its
end. But the universe of light is beyond time, and therefore, there
could be other universe. There may be many ages, not necessarily in
succession.”
Magnetism.
This implies having
magnetic properties. A piece of iron, steel, or nickel, could have
the property of exercising attraction on these same materials.
Literarily, magnetic means attracting strongly and mysteriously, and
in mining, the magnetic has explosive tendency. Natural magnets were
known some thousands of years ago. In the eleventh century CE, the
Chinese invented the magnetic compass, which consisted of a magnet
floating on a buoyant support in a dish of water. The respective
ends of the magnet, where iron fillings are attracted most, are
called the North and South Poles.
Peter
Peregrinus studying the properties of magnet in the thirteenth
century showed that: “Like poles repel and unlike poles attract.”
His work was forgotten until Dr. Gilbert, famous for his researches
in magnetism and electrostatics, took it up in the sixteen century.
Dr. Gilbert demonstrated that a magnetized needle, when freely
suspended about its centre of gravity, dipped downward towards the
North at about 70 degrees to the horizontal in England. He also
found that this angle of dip increased with latitude and concluded
that the earth itself was or contained a magnet. The points where
the angle of dip is 90 degrees are called the earth´s magnetic
poles. They are fairly near to the geographic poles but their
positions are constantly, though slowly, changing. Gilbert´s idea
of the earth being a magnet could not stand. The earth´s crust does
not contain enough magnetic material to make a magnet of the required
magnitude; the earth´s core appears to be molten, and molten iron is
non-magnetic. The origin of the earth´s magnetism is still a mystery
to modern science. When an artificial magnet is placed in the earth´s
magnetic field, the combined field contains a neutral point, or
points, which are places where the resultant magnetic intensity is
zero.
The
region round a magnet, where a magnetic force is experienced, is
called a magnetic field. On earth, we obtain such fields by iron
fillings and plot it accurately with a small compass. The direction
of a magnetic field is taken as the direction, which a North Pole
would move if placed in the field.
Sun-spots
and lines. Over the
earth´s surface, values of magnetic maps show lines joining all
points where the value of a given element is same. The most
important of these to navigators, for instance, are the isogonic
lines or isogonals,
which join points of equal variation or direction.
Magnetic elements at given
points are not constant. Small fluctuations show with periods of one
day, one month, one year and eleven years. The fluctuations are
linked with sun-spot activities. Every new sun-spot is accompanied
by great fluctuations known as magnetic storms.
A
sun-spot is believed to be a whirling vortex of hydrogen ions, many
of which fly off the sun and reach our atmosphere. As they are
positively charged, their motion is equivalent to a current and sets
up a magnetic field, which is felt on the earth. Magnetic intensity
is expressed in Oersted, after Oersted the founder. The strength or
intensity of a magnetic field is defined as numerically equal to the
force in dynes exerted on a unit pole in the field. The earth´s
horizontal component is the component of the earth´s horizontal
direction. In moving-coil instruments, powerful fields of the order
of thousands of Oersteds are used.
NUCLEAR
FISSION
Radioactive
substance emits heat. The temperature of radium bromide, for
instance, is always about two degrees centigrade above that of its
surroundings. The rate of emission of heat measured by means of the
Bunsen´s ice colorimeter, confirms that 1 gram of radium emits 100
calories per hour, and that the rate of emission is constant whatever
the temperature of the radium. The huge store of energy in
radioactive materials is evident from the fact that during its whole
life, 1 gram of radium emits about 100 calories per hour. This store
of energy accounts, to some extent, for the energy continually
emitted from the sun in the form of heat. Marie Curie, originally
Marja Sklodowska (1867-1934) a Polish born French chemist, won the
Nobel Prize in Physics in 1903 for discovering radioactivity of
thorium. She discovered polonium and radium, and isolated radium
from pitch blender. Her husband, Pierre Curie (1859-1906) a French
chemist, won the Nobel Prize in chemistry in 1911.
Atomic
structure. The discoveries
of electron and of positive rays led to the idea of atomic structure
around 1900. The positive part of the atom, which contains nearly
all its mass, was expected to naturally also give it most of its size
and the electrons were assumed to be embedded in the positive body.
In 1911, Rutherford exposed the fallacy of this idea and proposed the
nuclear of planetary structure.
Since
the hydrogen nucleus was the simplest positive particle known at the
time, it was called a proton,
and the nuclei of heavier
atoms were regarded as mixtures of protons and electrons. Later
findings suggested that the nucleus contains uncharged particles
called neutrons, which
have about the same mass as a proton. In 1919, Lord Rutherford
succeeded in driving a proton
or hydrogen nucleus (atom
without its electron) from the nitrogen nucleus by bombarding it with
soft equivalent particles, the remaining nucleus being one of oxygen.
Since then many instances of the change in other atoms by the
bombardment by swift particles have been discovered. In most of
these reactions, the atom remaining, although radioactive, is usually
of a short life. The process is called artificial
or induced
radioactivity.
Between
1930 and 1932, various researches in Germany, France and England
discovered that beryllium emits such particles, when it is bombarded
with a-rays. So now we regard the nucleus as a mixture of neutrons
and protons; baron has 5 protons and 6 neutrons. The a-particle, or
helium nucleus has an atomic weight A of 4, and an atomic number Z of
2, it contains 2 protons and 2 neutrons. Because a-particles are
emitted in some radioactive charges, we suppose that they exist as
units in the nucleus. The most important discovery in this
connection was perhaps by Chadwick in 1932. He proved that beryllium
bombardment by swift equivalent rays, emitted a new particle called
neutron, which
has the same mass as the hydrogen nucleus or proton, but which unlike
it, has no electric charge. The neutron being electrically
uncharged, has great penetrative power because it is not subjected to
repulsive forces of the positive electrical charges on the nuclei.
In a head on collision with an atomic nucleus, the neutron
produces great changes,
including significantly, those with the uranium atom.
According
to J. Duncan and S. G. Starling, “a sodium atom contains eleven
electrons, ten of which move in orbits close to the nucleus, and one
of which ranges much more widely. A chloride atom has ten inner
electrons and seven outer ones. The outer electron of the sodium atom
is weakly attracted to its nucleus, but the outer electrons of the
chloride atom are strongly attracted (because the ten inner electrons
are more effective shield round the +11 nucleus of sodium than round
the +17 nucleus of chlorine). Therefore, when a sodium atom and a
chlorine atom approach one another, the outer electron of the sodium
atom is attracted more strongly by the chlorine nucleus than by the
sodium nucleus. It leaves the sodium atom, and joins the outer
electrons of the chlorine; the sodium atom becomes a positively
charged sodium ion, and the chlorine atom a negatively charged
chlorine ion. Between these two ions.
There
now appears a strong electrostatic attraction, which holds them
together as a molecule of NaCl. In the solid state, ions are arranged
alternatively, positive and negative; the forces between them bind
the whole into a rigid crystal. “When such a crystal is dropped
into water, it dissolves and ionizes. We can really understand this
when we remember that water has a very high dielectric constant. It
therefore, reduces the forces between the ions 81 times and the
crystal falls apart into ions. In the same way we explain the
ionization of other salts and bases and acids. The idea that those
dissociate because they are held together by electrostatic forces,
which the solvent weakens, in supported by the fact that they ionize
in some other solvents as well as water.”
Nuclear
Charge. M. Nelkon and P.
Parker say: “If the condenser is connected to a battery, then its
potential difference is constant; but the surface charges on the
dielectric still increases its capacitance. They do so because they
offset the mutual repulsions of the charges on the plates and so
enable greater charges to accumulate there before the potential
difference rises to the battery voltage. Some molecules, we believe,
are permanently polarized. They are called polar molecules. For
example, the water molecule consists of an oxygen atom O, with two
hydrogen atoms H, making roughly a right-angled structure.
“Oxygen
has a nuclear charge of +8e, where e is the electronic charge, and
has eight electrons. Hydrogen has a nuclear charge of +e and one
electron. In the matter of molecule, the two electrons from the
hydrogen atom move in paths which surround the oxygen atom, and
partly withdrawn from the hydrogen atoms. On the average, therefore,
the apex of the triangle is negatively charged, and its base is
positively charges. In an electric field, water molecules tend to
orient themselves. The effect of this, in a condenser, is to
increase the capacitance in the way already described. The increase
is, in fact, much greater than that obtained with a dielectric which
is polarized merely by the action of the field.”
Energy.
This is power or force which is able to effect change or has the
capacity to cause action, motion, or the inherent ability, or
strength, to do effective work. An object possess energy if is can
do work. When the energy is caused by movement, we say it is kinetic
energy. For example, a flying stone can break a window. A weight
held stationary above the ground has energy because when allowed to
drop, it could destroy something or raise another object linked to it
with a rope passed over a pulley. A coiled spring has energy
gradually released as the spring uncoils. The energy of the weight or
spring is called potential
energy because it arises
from the position of arrangement of the body rather than from its
motion. If the mass of an object is m, and the object is held
stationary at a height h above the ground, the energy released when
the object falls to the ground = force X distance = weight of object

According
to J. Duncan and S. G. Starling, “Joule developed the idea that
energy in any one form could be converted into any other. There
might be a loss of useful energy in the process, for example, some of
the heat from the furnace of a steam-engine is lost up the chimney,
and some more down the exhaust, but no energy is destroyed. The work
done by the engine could, with the help of Joule´s
equivalent, be expressed in
heat units; if it is then added to the heat lost as described, and
the heat developed as friction, it is equal to the heat provided by
the fuel burnt. The idea underlying this statement is called the
Principle of the
conservation of energy.” This
is the law expressing the belief that the capacity for energy in the
material world remains constant regardless of the forms it takes.
This “implies that, if we start with a given amount of energy in
any one form, we can convert it completely, but if we keep an
accurate balance-sheet, we shall find that the total amount of
energy, expressed in any one form, say heat or work, is always the
same, and is equal to the original amount.
“The
conservation of energy applies to living organisms, plants and
animals as well as to inanimate systems. For example, we may put a
man or a mouse into a box or a room, give him a treadmill to work and
feed him. His food is his fuel; if we burn a sample of it, we can
measure its chemical energy, in heat units. And if we now add up the
hear value of the work which the man does, and the heat which his
body gives off, we find that their total is equal to the chemical
energy of the food which the man eats. Food is source of man´s
energy measured in large calories.”
Strong
and weak nuclei. The weak
nuclear is associated with the burning of stars and the decay of
radioactive matter. It rules over the family of leptons, which
includes electrons, muons, tau, leptons and all kinds of neutrinos.
The strong nuclear is linked with atomic energy or force of the
highest magnitude such as may have set off the Big Bang. These are
the quark family of hadron, the best known are proton and neutron
which come from atomic nucleus and some other three hundred particles
physicists recognize.
Particles
and anti-particles of matter are in general segmented into what
scientists call quarks and leptons. The difference between the two
groups is in relation with their behaviour to the strong nuclear
force that restricts the quarks inside the protons and bind protons
and neutrons inside atomic nucleus. While quarks are susceptible to
the strong force, leptons are immune to it. Leptons instead respond
to electromagnetism and the weak nuclear force. The electron is the
lightest electrically charged lepton and the active participant in
all atomic behaviour.
Because
they are unaffected by the strong nuclear force, they prevent the
marriage between the forces of nature. In fact, were the electrons
to be absorbed into the strong nuclear, we would be close to an
answer as to how the universe began. We would then be able to
explain the history of the universe from the Big Bang and the cause
of its explosion.
Electron
was first discovered about a hundred years ago and has remained
simple and well behaved since. It is stable and appears to have no
size. It has shown no interest in developing close ties with quarks
or other leptons. Then suddenly, in the centenary of its discovery,
evidence is emerging to demonstrate that electrons could have
intimate relationship with quarks after all.
On
19 February 1997, two teams at H.I and Zeus at the Deutsche
Elektronen Synchrotron, Germany, announced the first evidence that
the electron is more likely to scatter from energies close to the
speed of light. More electrons were scattering with quarks at high
energy and embracing quarks for a brief instant to form a new type of
matter code-named leptonquark, before falling apart again into
leptons and quarks.
The
news about leptonquark has electrified the world of science because
lepton, the reluctant bride, has fallen at last into the warm embrace
of quarks at high energies. A quadrillion, quintillion of a second,
is enough after the Big Bang, for a marriage of the quark and
anti-quark to occur resulting in the expansion of the universe after
cooling to a temperature of 10.27 degrees. Such a temperature is
possible in less than 10.35 second from the start of the Big Bang
explosion. It is sufficient time for quarks, electrons, muons and
several other particles, to acquire a rest mass briefly although they
do without one normally. The universe immediately after the Big Band
may not have been uniform until particles in the vacuum structured it
with their properties. In other words, even if the universe was not
entirely created by vacuum, its structuring relied on vacuum
properties.
Properties
in vacuum are similar to the properties of elementary particles
except that the vacuum particles exist for a very short time compared
to their counterparts and are as a result defying the law of
conserving mass and energy. Vacuum is a complex arrangement of
systems and numerous subsystems responding to various environmental
conditions peculiar to each. Activities in a vacuum could originate
from the short time brightness of some stars. Creation of particles
in a vacuum leads to increased density of neutron stars until they
finally burst.
The
most mysterious of all the particles so far discovered by scientists
is the neutrino
found in ether atom. Their extremely high penetrative capacity makes
them the critical field of study for the proper understanding of the
structuring of the universe. But neutrino
ought to have mass to
effectively play the structuring role expected. Not only that it
does not have mass, it is elusive and difficult to detect. Also
required to achieve the Grand Unification Theory is for all the four
forces of nature to work in harmony. The weakest of the four forces
is gravitation. It is universal and omnipresent but its relationship
with the other elements at the highest level of energy generation is
still not well understood.
Modern
scientists agree on four energy fields governing the universe. The
four (i.e., gravity, electromagnetism, strong and weak nuclear) were
grouped together for ease of description as the ´Standard Model,´
in the 1970s. The standard model has withstood several challenges
although scientists know of the model´s severe limitations. The
most glaring one is that it excludes the interaction of particles and
the force of gravity.
The
four energy laws agree at the energies scientists can simulate and
differ in predictions at energies close to the speed of light.
Scientists are agreed that the four basic laws of nature have helped
to unravel the history of the universe up to one second after the Big
Bang. What happened before that one second is the reason scientists
are pursuing what they call the Grand Unified Theory (or Unified
Field Theory.) A single theory that physicists hope will provide a
complete explanation for the way in which all the forces of nature
appear to work. Einstein laboured in vain to achieve this until his
death. Despite the difficulties, scientists are convinced that there
is a consistency at the deepest level of nature. They believe that
the universe can be understood by logic and reason and that the
Unified Field Theory is not a mirage. Steven Wigner and Einstein
said that much too: “that the greatest mystery about the universe
is that it is comprehensible.”
The
Big Bang Theory
Einstein´s
theory of General Relativity is captured in his famous equation,
E=mc2
where E stands for energy, m for mass and c2
the square of the numerical value of the velocity of light. The
theory outlines how energy is equivalent to mass times the square of
the speed of light, and it is the origin of the Big Bang theory. It
means that a gigantic explosion heralded the universe. The term Big
Bang was coined by Fred Hoyle during a programme called: “The
Nature of Things,” on BBC radio in 1949. The text was published in
1950. Hoyle used the programme to mock the concept.
Scientists
too consider the theory a mathematically nonsensical state because of
it´s singularity of zero volume that nevertheless contained infinite
density and infinitely large energy. The implication being that in
the remote past, the universe had a higher temperature and a higher
density.
One
of the leading scientists who felt that the issue of the Big Bang was
not settled was Llya Prigogine. According to him, the only thing we
know for sure is that our cosmic environment evolved from a hot dense
state. He asks, “Is this the starting point of our universe? Is
the Big Bang describing the origin of our cosmological environment or
the universe as a whole?”
To
Stephen Hawkins, the Big Bang is just a point of space-time rather
than any other point of space-time. “I think the universe is
completely self-contained. It doesn´t have any beginning or end.
It doesn´t have any creation or destruction. Time and space and
everything else are really in us. They´re mathematical models that
we´ve made to describe the universe. I don´t think the first
moment was really anything special just as the North Pole is not a
special point of the earth´s surface. It´s just that we chose to
measure latitude from the North Pole.
Einstein´s
theory, apart from failing to explain what happened the second before
the Big Bang, posed a barrier to scientific attempts to understand
the origin of our expanding universe. Isaac Newton was the first to
suggest that the earth moved in a curved orbit around the sun due to
gravitational pull of the sun. Einstein believed that the earth´s
curved orbit around the sun was, in fact, as straight a path as
possible through curved space. If Einstein´s theory is true, it
means the universe could crash at some point.
Recent
scientific finding confirms with great certainty that Einstein´s
theory on curved space was wrong. The new finding confirms that the
fabric of the universe is flat. The Nigerian Guardian newspaper of
Friday April 28, 2000, quoted the finding published in the journal
´Nature.´ Its finding means that the usual geometric rules about
observed-light not being bent by gravity, is because it travels in
straight lines, not curves. Because the universe is flat, we now know
that the universe will continue its steady expansion, which started
at the Big Bang, and will not collapse into a Big Crunch. A
perfectly flat universe will keep expanding forever, because there is
not enough matter to make it re-collapse in a Big Crunch. The new
information is an exquisitely accurate map of the very faint after
glow of heat left behind by the Big Bang. This is called the Cosmic
Microwave Background (CMB) and is equivalent to the tiny warmth given
off by something just a few degrees above absolute zero, - 273 deg.
C.
Tiny
temperature variations in the CMB, just 0.1 percent at most, allows
scientists to test different models of how the universe began and
expanded. The map paints a picture of the young universe, just
300,000 years old – the cosmos now over 12 billion years old. The
CMB light detected has travelled across the entire universe and we
are perfectly able to distinguish it from the light generated in our
own galaxy.
The
project to map CMB was called Boomerang (Balloon Observations of
Millimetric Extragalactic Radiation and Geophysics.) The measurements
were made using a very sensitive telescope suspended from a balloon
40,000 metres (131,000 feet) above Antarctica. The instrument flew
around the frozen continent between December 29, 1998 and January 8,
1999. The research backs the inflation theory of the universe put
forward in 1980, which suggests that the whole of the cosmos expanded
from a single tiny point at the Big Bang. At that time and for a
short while after, space was curved because it was confined in a
small region.
Some
other Theories on Origin of Things
Murray
Gell-Mann, 50 years ago,
attempted unification by placing the particles emerging from
experiments around the world, on the points of a geometric structure
known as SU(3.) He found, on manipulating the structure, that he was
able to reproduce the interaction. He also identified points that
had no known particles associated with them, and predicted the
existence of particles that would fill those gaps. He was awarded
the Nobel Prize after they were detected.
Dr.
Garrett Lisi, in work
posted on the Internet in November 2007 (no scientific journal has
published the work yet) claimed to have achieved a break through
using the geometry known as E8 in mathematics. E8 was first
recognized in 1887 by Sophus Lie, a Norwegian mathematician. E8 has
248 dimensions and its structure took 120 years to solve in early
2007 when a group of mathematicians managed to construct a map that
describes it completely. Dr. Lisi feels that the map could be used
fully to describe the laws of physics. He placed a particle
(including different versions of the same entities, and using
particles that describe matter and those that describe forces) on
most of the 248 points of E8.
Using
computer simulations to manipulate the structures, he claimed he was
able mathematically, to generate interactions that correspond to
reality. Some 20 particles remain unresolved in Dr. Lisi´s model.
If Dr. Lisi can calculate the masses of these, he will have made
predictions that can be tested experimentally. Detecting massive
objects takes a great deal of resources otherwise they would have
been discovered well before now. CERN, the European particle physics
Laboratory near Geneva is building Large
Hadron Collider, a large
machine that will create particles with greater masses than have yet
been seen. It is due to start its scientific work in the summer of
2008, so a test of Dr. Lisi´s theory may not be too far away.
Professor
Oyibo, a New York based
Nigerian scientist, came out with a ´unified theory´ about creation
called GAGUT (Gij, j = o) according to a publication in the Daily Sun
of Nigeria of Monday 28th
February 2005.
The
Big Bounce Theory
Scientist´s
central idea is that the theory of General Relativity can be combined
with the observations on the largest scales of galaxies receding from
each other to extrapolate the conditions of the universe back and
forward in time.
Loop Quantum
Gravity, a baby of the Penn State Institute for Gravitational Physics
and Geometry, is now the leading approach to the goal of unifying
General Relativity with quantum physics.
In
a write up published on the on-line edition of the journal ´nature
physics´ on July, 2007, and published in the August 2007 print
edition of the journal, Martin Bojowald, an assistant professor of
physics at Penn State University, USA, said that Einstein´s theory
of General Relativity does not include the quantum physics that you
must have in order to describe the extremely high energies that
dominated our universe during its very early evolution and that the
Loop Quantum Gravity Theory bridges the gap by including the
necessary quantum physics.
Physicists
led by Bojowald at Penn State University, exploring territory unknown
to Einstein, the time before the Big Bang, have come out with the
first mathematical description to systematically establish the
existence of the Big Bounce, and deduce properties of the earlier
universe whose collapse appears to have given birth to our own.
Bojowald and his colleagues, using this theory to trace our universe
backward in time have found that its beginning point had a minimum
volume that is not zero and a maximum energy that is not infinite.
As a result of these limits, the theory´s equations continue to
produce valid mathematical results past the point of the classical
Big Bang.
Quantum
gravity theory indicates that the fabric of space-time has an
“atomic” geometry that is woven with one-dimensional quantum
threads.
The
fabric tears violently under the extreme conditions dominated by
quantum physics near the Big Bounce, causing gravity to become
strongly repulsive so that, instead of vanishing into infinity as
predicted by Einstein´s Theory of General Relativity, the universe
re-bounded in the Big Bounce that gave birth to our expanding
universe. The theory reveals a contracting universe before the Big
Bounce, the space-time geometry that otherwise was similar to that of
our universe today.
Martin
Bojowald, in his write-up said: “my paper introduces a new
mathematical model that we can use to derive new details about the
properties of a quantum state as it travels through the Big Bounce,
which replaces the classical idea of a Big Bang as the beginning of
our universe.” Bojowald suggests that while it might be possible
to learn about properties of the earlier universe, we always would be
uncertain about some of these properties because his calculations
reveal a “cosmic forgetfulness” that results from the extreme
quantum forces during the Big Bang.
Large
Hadron Collider
Rolf-Dreter
Heuer, the research director of the German Electron Synchrotron in
Hamburg, was chosen on December 13, 2007, to become the next director
general of CERN, Europe´s main particle physics laboratory. Heuer
would be taking over in December 2008 from Robert Aymar, who used his
five year term that was coming to an end, to set up CERN´s Large
Hadron Collider (LHC) machine, not only on schedule but also on the
tight budget of USA$5 billion. LHC´s test run was planned for
summer 2008. LHC is the world´s biggest particle accelerator and
Heuer, along with thousands of his staff of physicists would be
hoping to use the machine to unravel the secrets of the universe dark
energy, dark matter, extra dimensions, tiny black holes that
evaporates too fast to capture and, of course, the origins of mass.
According
to The Economist Journal
of December 22, 2007: “The machine is a pair of ring-shaped pipes,
each 27 km long, buried 100 meters down in a layer of rock between
Geneva and the Jura mountains. The pipes are surrounded by powerful
magnets that guide and accelerate the particles within, so that they
whiz round in opposite directions at close to the speed of light.
This gives them enormous energy and, because energy and mass are two
aspects of the same thing, enormous mass as well. The collision
between these particles that are the purpose of all this engineering,
take place in four huge particles – detecting machines buried in
caverns on the ring´s circumference. The pipes – and the streams
of protons they are carrying – cross in the middle of each of these
machines. When the protons from opposing streams bash into each
other, the alchemy of subatomic physics creates new, massive and
generally unstable particles – of which the Higgs should be one
example.
“These
quickly decay into showers of daughter particles that shoot out
through concentric layers of detectors made of materials such as
liquid argon and the purest crystals of silicon available. Each
layer is designed to measure the passage of a different class of
daughter. By analyzing the daughters, the nature of the massive
parents that gave birth to them can be worked out. All this happens
fast. Very fast. When the LHC is running at full speed, each
detector will have to deal with a billion collisions a second. That
is way beyond what even the best modern computers can study
thoroughly, so most are given a cursory glance and thrown away. The
truly promising – a few hundred a second – are stored for future
examination.”
What
all these expenditure and activities are about is to come out with a
unified theory of how the universe came about. Einstein got us going
on the chase with his E=mc2
theory that led to the standard model concept developed in the early
1970s. The model brings together fairly satisfactorily
mathematically, all known fundamental particles (electrons, quarks,
photons etc) and three of the four known fundamental forces
(electromagnetism, and strong and weak nuclei.) It is the exclusion
of the force of gravity from the mathematical equation that makes it
incomplete and the universe difficult to explain. Because of this
exclusion, the existence of mass has been difficult to prove too.
The
first job of the LHC machine is to find the particle called Higgs
bosom. Peter Higgs, a physicist, predicted the need for such a
particle to exist in 1964, and eventually won a Nobel Prize for it.
Higgs´ existence would confirm the existence of mass. Energy and
mass are two aspects of the same thing. Mass clearly cannot exist
without Higgs, and if Higgs is found, physicists would then be
required to look beyond the concept of the standard model.
That
really is what the LHC project is about. Higgs would probably create
more than mass. A bunch of them together will repel each other in a
way that takes the fabric of space along with them. This could
explain the sudden inflation the universe seems to have undergone
immediately it came into existence and also the 70% of the universe
whose nature is unknown and whose dark energy is pushing space apart
even now.
Studies
have suggested that something called neutralino requires about the
same energy as Higgs to make, so it might turn up about the same time
Higgs is found. Neutralino would take physics into the exciting
realm called supersymetry. This simply means scientists can jettison
the standard model´s hit and miss factors by doubling the number of
particles needed to make sense of the universe.
Neutralino
is predicted to be the lightest most stable of these new particles
and if found, its stability is expected to help solve the
cosmological mystery suggesting that a quarter of the universe is
made up of dark matter that so far can only be detected by its
gravitational interactions. Many physicists believe dark matter is
large neutralino. Neutralinos reacts to gravity but not to
electromagnetism, which is why it is difficult to detect. It also
feels the weak nuclear force. The way to find an neutralino is to
take note of every thing that comes out of a collision and see if any
energy is missing. If the missing energy matches the expected energy
of a neutralino, then that is probably what escaped detection.
In
1973, Prigogine shocked the world with his mathematical calculations
suggesting that black holes (i.e. areas within space and time where
the force of gravity is extremely strong and light cannot escape so
they appear to be invisible) were not empty or spent matter after
all. That black holes could, in fact, ´explode,´ emitting streams
of particles.
Miniature
black holes that evaporate in a hail of particles known as the
Hawking radiation may also turn up in the detectors. If it does,
Stephen Hawking would receive his Nobel Prize for this. He predicted
such radiation in 1974. The trick used in detecting neutralino could
be used to look for gravitons – gravity´s hypothetical particles.
If their missing energies turn out to have a particular set of
values, it will be evidence that they partially, at least, exist in
an undetected fifth dimension (the other four are length, breath,
height and time.) That in turn will throw light on the complex field
of string theory, which is the best available theory of everything
even though it requires the existence of not five, but eleven
dimensions.
Caverns
and pipes in layers of rocks for the LHC experiments are not quite
the same thing as when there was nothing. Rock is matter, caverns
and pipes are spaces in space, and space and matter interfere with
experiments by diluting the strength of the results. Something would
always be hidden from us but we would keep finding enough to boast
about and win the Nobel Prize. And when we do, when we find Higgs,
locate energy and mass, detect neutralino and graviton, and unravel
the complex field of string theory, we would still be left with the
mystery of our being – the reality of the spirit world.
There
is a higher science than is immediately available to man. It is
locked in the scary death realm of nature. We could start to unlock
it by carefully studying and understanding the ghost of our dead and
hopefully eventually graduate to the higher energies. There are five
original energies of creation. Four are known as the standard model.
The fifth is in the death blind. We need to return from death to
tell; I died more than a hundred times.
Recent
Scientific Findings
Chemistry
in space form life. Scientists
have for a long while been focusing their life´s origin studies on
earliest clay formations as templates and recently on a warm pool of
liquid on the plant´s surface. Now new discoveries of planets
around distance stars are changing this focus.
Apparently,
“chemistry in space isn´t the chemistry most of us are trained
for,” claims a recent study. “We should take a much bigger
approach. Where are all the chemicals on the galaxy and its solar
system and what can you do with them?” These were some to the
questions a study co-coordinated by Rainer Glaser, a molecular
chemist at the University of Missouri, Columbia, USA, set out to
answer. Their findings were published in the September 2007 issue of
the journal Astrobiology.
Using
a computer to simulate the cold vacuum of space, Glaser and his
colleagues found that clouds of adenine molecules (one of the four
components the DNA use to store an organism´s genetic code) can form
and survive the harsh conditions of space and possibly sprinkle onto
planets as the stars they orbit travel through a galaxy.
Glaser´s
team found that hydrogen cyanide (HCN) gas could build adenine. ”Like
pieces in a set of tinker toys, hydrogen cyanide serve as adenine´s
building blocks; the small molecules bond together into chains and,
with a little wiggling, eventually assemble into rings. Although
adenine´s first ring needs a tiny energy boost from starlight to
form, Glaser said the second ring of the molecule self-assembles
without any outside help. “When you want to have a reaction, you
usually need to heat it up. It is remarkable to find a reaction that
doesn´t require activation energy. If you do this reaction in space,
this is a huge advantage because it takes a long time for a molecule
to be hit by a piece of light.”
Adenine´s
ringed shape helps to absorb and release any excess energy without
breaking apart, making it stable enough to form concentrated clouds
that planets can drift through. Glaser said the idea that two-ringed
organic molecules like adenine formed in space may seem outrageous
but current evidence leaves the possibility wide open.
Glaser
wrote “you can find large molecules in meteorites, including
adenine. We know that adenine can be made else where in the solar
system, so why should one consider it impossible to make the building
blocks somewhere in interstellar dust? There may be only a few
molecules of adenine per square foot of space but over millions of
years, enough could have accumulated to help make way for life.”
Antonio
Lazcano, an evolutionary biologist at the National autonomous
university of Mexico who has studied life origins for the past 30
years said Glaser and his colleagues´ work is compelling. We already
know that hydrogen cyanide is abundant in interstellar clouds, and
its been suggested that comets can bring some of that material into
planets.” For Glaser and his team´s idea to be widely supported,
however, adenine needs to be detected in the deep space clouds. “The
likelihood of detection is very small, but its still possible. If
astronomers can better eliminate background noise, I think we´ll
have equipment sensitive enough to detect adenine dust clouds.”
Dust
from space built our universe. Genesis
was right, everything on earth, including humans and all the other
solid objects in the solar system came form dust particles in orbit
around the primitive sun. Modern space dust blows off stars formed
some 10 billion years ago but these stars would have been too young
to shed much dust by the time of the solar system formation 4.5
billion years ago so, where did the primordial dust come from. This
was what Dr. Ciska Markwick-Kemper and her team of researchers at the
University of Manchester, England, set out to unravel.
Dr.
Markwick-Kemper´s team suspected that the quasars might be the
source of the primordial dust. Quasars were formed shortly after the
universe began and astronomers noticed them because quasars are
powerful radio sources. The radio waves (and lots of other
radiation) are the result of matter being drawn into the black hole
which is at the centre of quasars. Dr. Markwick-Kemper´s team
recruited ´Spitzer,´
a space telescope to look in details into the quasar called PG2112 +
059. Spitzer was tuned to pick up infra-red radiation – the sort
of radiation emitted by dust that has been heated. The details of
the spectrum of infra-red radiation given off by a speck of dust
betrays its composition.
Dr.
Markwick-Kemper´s team findings, reported in the November 2007
Astrophysical Journal
Letters, suggest
that the dust around PG2112 + 059 contains large quantities of
rock-forming materials, including crystalline forms of silica
(essentially, small sand grains) a form of aluminum oxide called
corundum (better known as the principal ingredient of rubies and
sapphires) and a form of magnesium oxide called periclase (which is
present in marble.)
According
to Dr. Markwick-Kemper´s team, these minerals must have been
produced by the quasar because their crystal structures would not
survive long in the hostile conditions of outer space. Cosmic rays
would zap them into an amorphous glass-like state. Moreover,
corundum and periclase have not been detected in space dust before.
Their association with the quasar is, therefore, strong evidence that
this is the object that created them.
Origin
of the Spirit Force Field Theory
Just
as Isaac Newton suddenly discovered gravity while observing a falling
fruit, the secret of the spirit force field was revealed to me on
Thursday the 11 September, 2003, at approximately 21:13 hours,
Nigerian time, after eight years of subjecting available relevant
knowledge in the sciences and the arts, including physics, chemistry,
biology, geology, mysticism, ecology, algebra, mathematics,
astrology, geometry, religion, cosmology, law, engineering,
psychology, sociology, philosophy, history, economics, geography,
spirituality, medicine, anthropology etc to rigorous scrutiny and
going through excruciating spiritual and physical learning process
and experiences to write ´The
end of knowledge: a book
lost and completely re-written four times.
The
dream came, two months into my five years of being holed in, alone by
myself in the isolation of my primitive farm hut, miles removed from
even the most rudimentary resemblance of civilization. I deprived
myself of every thing. When I died, I don´t know what I lived on,
but when I lived, it was virtually on nothing. Details of the dream
are provided later in this book. The dream in a nutshell
demonstrated that dead energy is not wasted, it gives birth to energy
of equal strength and magnitude with the dead energy, and that the
death of the standard model forces in singularity, gave birth to the
spirit force field. I worked tirelessly for the next five years
after the dream to find the scientific support and language beyond
the controversy and constraints of Einstein´s Big Bang theory to
structure and anchor my dream. I continued to read widely because
while my language needed to be simple enough to carry the
unscientific minded along, it had to incorporate most of the relevant
available knowledge up to this point in time, and for the first time
in human history, blend religion with science.
The
Egyptians worked with a unique energy, a subatomic particle that
travels at about the speed of light. The energy (which we call
Tu-SoS) is the glue of the universe. It is the bond between the
spiritual and physical system of reality. With Tu-SoS´s motion, all
motions have a path length of 2400m and unlike the electron spin;
there is no centrifugal force and no gravity. There is what is known
as Tu-SoS´s pairs in which the particles of the atom spiral are
stored. The Tu-SoS´s pairs carry along side an electromagnetic
charge. The three electromagnetic charges of Tu-SoS´s pairs are (+)
positive (+) positive (+) positive paired with (-) negative (-)
negative (-) negative.
I
experimented with several possible origin scenarios until Martin
Bojowald´s theory on the Big Bounce came to my rescue on July 1,
2007, by scientifically plugging the gap in the Big Bang theory with
the Big Bounce. Other findings, including Rainer Gaiser´s DNA´s
adenine, and Dr. Markwick-Kemper´s origin of dust particles´
theory, contributed in various ways to boost my confidence that
nature still has much to teach mankind. I was finally able to wrap
up my theories on the origin of the spirit force field on July 10,
2009.
Between
October 2007 and 30 July, 2008, I lost this book in spiritually
induced circumstances and painfully re-wrote it from scratch four
times. I feel the fourth re-write is better than the earlier three.
I knew everything by heart, making each re-write slightly easier.
(C)
Osahon´s Theory on the Origin of the Spirit Force Field (Tu-SoS):
Energy
escapes from expired energy, the waste materials of the energy or of
the dead mass, in spaceless compact, is dark energy of which dark
matter is part. Dark energy is the flip side of Einstein´s equation
on ´Energy:´ E=mc2.
Dark energy is,
therefore, dE=mc2,
where d stands for dark energy.
The
beginning point of the universe had a minimum volume that is not zero
and a maximum energy that is not infinite. With the concentration of
oxygen and hydrogen at dielectric constant level, a minimum fraction
of electric charge above stability level in a constantly whirling
vortex of hydrogen and nitrogen ions in a dense electromagnetic
field, at the centre of gravity and, therefore, of mass, resulted in
an explosion (the First Bang) that triggered the emergence of the
first universe.
The
four original energies of nature: gravity, electromagnetism, weak and
strong nuclei (known in scientific circles as the standard model)
acting in singularity, exploded and effervesced into a state of
activity due to the formation of clumps, packets, pockets or bags of
mixed heat, gas, vapour, air and liquid universe in ferment. A thick,
globular, partly volatile, partly inflammable, liquid, air, gas. A
smoldering, smoky, wobbly, heated smog, defining an ill-structured,
fragile embryonic space. It manifested about 13.7 billion years ago,
occupying a not too well structured space that in a couple of years
of space time geometry, contracted to the pull of gravity, bounced
and exploded massively in the magnitude of the Big Bang, now known as
the Big Bounce, to herald our universe that has kept expanding since.
Scientists
claim that light nuclei was the only element formed immediately after
the Big Bang and as an after thought, they admit that cold gas and
dust were formed with the light nuclei. Their Big Bang was a wobbly
universe which we now call the First Bang. The Big Bounce had the
properties they have described but light is impossible without fire
and where there is fire, there must be smoke. The fire and smoke of
the Big Bounce seem to be lost today to cosmic memory but they
contributed to the formation of the clouds, sky, and the eerie force
of mind and spirit produced from the localized lumps of dark energy
that escaped from the Big Bounce to create solid space and time.
There was nothing, not even God, before the First Bang or Big Bounce.
Quarks
materialized from the dark energy to form a quark-gluon plasma in
which quarks were not yet bound together into other types of
elementary particles because the four forces that gave birth to the
dark energy – electromagnetic, weak, strong nuclei and gravitation
– were still in unitary state. As the forces began to separate
from each other, the universe began to expand and get bigger and
cool. Shortly after the expansion began, the universe was very hot
and dense. Matter and radiation interacted strongly with each other
at this point and the universe was opaque. The enormous dark and
dense energy formed, provided a fundamental symmetry of nature which,
of course, gradually disappeared as the universe began to age and
become less energetic.
As
the universe expanded, it became less dense at a few thousand years
old when it had cooled to the point where protons and electrons were
moving slowly to bind each other and form hydrogen atoms. This
allowed the universe to become transparent and radiation to be freed
and to fly. This is seen today as a very uniform-long-wavelength
radiation coming from outer space, and is tagged the cosmic
microwave background radiation.
Studies
have confirmed that the cosmic background radiation was set free
about 389,000 years after the First Bang, which is later than
previously thought. Also, the first star was formed 200 million
years after the First Bang, which is earlier than previously assumed.
The lumps of dark matter were the seeds from which galaxies and
clusters of galaxies formed. The constituent of dark matter at this
early stage could not have included neutrino in sufficient quantities
to contribute to dark matter´s structuring of the universe.
Neutrinos became abundant after stars had formed. Neutrinos are even
too energetic to have helped seed the process of star and galaxy
formation. Other form of dark matter known as anisotropies are
believed to have contributed to star and galaxy formation. Anisotropy
lumps have been detected in the cosmic microwave background
radiation.
For
anisotropies to have formed in the early universe, a large component
of slower, cold dark matter must have been present. It is believed
that an exotic form of cold dark matter exists. This form is not
baryonic like the rest of cold dark matter because like neutrinos, it
barely interacts with ordinary matter. It is some type of massive
particles, similar to what scientists call WIMPs (meaning weakly
interacting massive particles). This is where the
´Spirit Force Field´ is
to be found.
Astronomers
detected the effects of dark matter and dark energy on ardinary
matter but the nature of each remains mysterious. Dark matter is
made up of hot and cold dark matter. While the hot dark matter
consists of protons and electrons that combine to form hydrogen, cold
dark matter is made up of protons and neutrons, the subatomic
particles known as baryon that make up ordinary matter. When cold
dark matter combines with electrons, it forms atoms.
Baryonic
cold dark matter could be found in celestial objects that were not
massive enough to innitiate the fusion processes that make stars
shine. It also could be made of matter that collapsed to form dense
objects such as neutrons of stars or even black holes (objects so
dense that not even light can escape their gravitational field).
Such objects are collectively referred to as MACHOs, which means
“massive compact halo objects.
Only
4% of dark or mass energy of the universe is made up of baryonic or
living things on earth; 23% of the energy is hot dark matter, the
remaining 73% is composed of something else, a substance so
mysterious that no body knows much about it. The substance provides
the anti-gravity-like negative pressure that causes the universe´s
expansion to accelerate rather than slow down. Dark energy is the
fifth energy of nature after the standard model, and the ´Spirit
Force Field´ particles reside there in relative minor percentage of
the dark energy at perhaps less than 4% of the entire dark energy
field because it attaches to baryonic to facilitate life. The seeming
nebulous or phantom energy is ethereal in nature, and is concealed
and living in the fifth dimension, the other four being, length,
breadth, height and time. The remaining six of the eleven dimensions
of the string theory are expected to be neighbours of the fifth in
the dense dark energy field.
While
the other four energies that created dark energy could involuntarily
die now and again in singularity, the fifth energy and the spirit
force field never die. The spirit force field revolves at about the
speed of light at source, and less than the speed of light when it
manifests into various characteristics, in our environment. One of
its principal particles in our environment is the neutrino in ether
atom. Neutrino is without mass and is extremely small, varied in
character, and porous.
African
metaphysics perceive the relation of causes and effects. Their
philosophy abolishes the terrifying power of death; realize that life
depends upon an invisible energy both in man and in the universe, and
that the unmanifested power produced the objective universe. They
believe in both the visible and invisible powers at work in Nature
and that every phenomenon, physical or super physical, is related to
law of cause and effect that could be examined and classified. The
Greeks symbolized the African spiritually identified epochs as the
five base elements of the cosmos with geometric figures, with the
crescent for air;
the cube for earth;
the sphere for water;
the triangle for fire
and the candle-flame tip for aether
which for them was a plane still to manifest. The five symbols
compress into two in most of their activities, with fire representing
the spiritual realm, and water mortal or earthly man.

Osahon´s theory on harmony in nature.
The
Dark Energy along with the Spirit Force Field whip matter and all
else in the universe into a contained, orderly, harmonious whole.
The
spirit force field (Tu-SoS) spinning at about the speed of light is
like a sea of consciousness in which all vacuum particles swim. It
is porous and yet has a mechanistic grip on matter duplicating all
forms and holding (along with dark energy) the entire universe
together in harmony. In our environment, the spirit force field
manifest as ether.
Scientists
confirm that ´ether´ fills the entire universe but they are not
very sure how it works. They know it obeys physical laws. It is
simple, homogeneous in essence and remains invariable throughout and
always. It interacts with ordinary matter and helps to determine
much of its properties and the properties of space. It contributes
significantly to the properties of particles and because it is
porous, all particles pass through it. Its properties resemble gas
atoms and although they appear similar to ordinary atoms, they are a
lot smaller. Ether in our environment, reacts, mixes or ferments in
all sorts of permutations, formations, configurations, proportions
and compositions with various other forces, energies, gases,
particles and elements, individually, collectively or in group
formations, in and out of space, to assume or wear a myriad of
characteristics, forms, and garbs. Many of the forms and
characteristics are phantom-like, such as spirits and ghosts, which
although are familiar, defy investigation, because of the porous
nature of ether´s various particles. But we know some of the things
´ether´ can do.
Ether
is the medium through which light and radio waves are transmitted.
It pervades space and fills up the gaps between particles of air and
other matter. It promotes creativity in nature by energizing matter
and facilitating dialogue between the elements, based on stored
memory. Ether plays a significant part in what David Bohm describes
as the holomovement in space. Bohm says the holomovement folds and
unfolds in a perpetual dance of creating and recreating and that it
is constantly renewing itself and absorbing new ideas to adapt to
environment and situations. Rubert Sheldrake says that in quantum
mechanics there are fields of information in the wave function and
super quantum fields, which organize the quantum field itself. That
when the space-time meanings and the super (electric) wave function
field contact each other all sorts of relevant meanings could result.
Mystics
say karma is an energy field of information in the belly of the
universe serving as a data bank. What scientists and spiritualists
are describing in their various ways is ´ether,´ the energy field
of information and consciousness. Every particle whether quark or
lepton deposits information in ´ether,´ which in turn breaths
consciousness into matter. Once things are formed or have happened,
whether naturally or by chance, the code is stored away in ether´s
memory bank to be re-called and used again and again, with those
things not detrimental to the rhythm and order in nature, surviving
to further evolve, while the others atrophy, die, or disappear along
the line, because their mathematics do not add up as in two plus two
equals four.
(C2)
Osahon´s Theory on the Origin of God.
´God´
was an accident of birth.
While
we at the moment lack the scientific expertise to investigate the
properties and activities of the ghost of dead mass or matter, for
that matter, we know that ghost is the immediate aftermath of death
and so could not have triggered the ´First Bang´ or the ´Big
Bounce.´ Rather, it is part of the fifth energy (the dark energy)
created by the original explosions of the standard model. The spirit
force field was, therefore, an accident or birth. It originated from
the sudden death of the initial quantum energy of the universe,
triggered by a simple accidental algebraic equation that evolved into
the complex, iron-clad, interlocking mathematical laws weaving an
endless tapestry or stream of ingenuous events and creativity in the
universe in collaboration with hot dark matter. Mathematics,
therefore, is mankind´s obscure and intimidating God; the brilliant
language of nature. But the human mind insists that a thinking
something commands events in nature to happen and that the benevolent
culprit, in the case of the origin of things, is God.
The
truth is that accidental equation triggered the ´First Bang´ and
also the ´Big Bounce,´ and mathematics is not God as understood or
defined by humans. The confusion is due to our poor knowledge and
understanding of how nature works or how the elements of nature talk
to one another. Humans, animals, insects or birds are not the only
ones that think or talk. Plants, darkness, rain, air, the earth, the
void, all communicate through electromagnetism. When a seed is
planted, the seed immediately begins to communicate with the natural
elements around it, in search of water, air (carbon dioxide) light
(heat) and rich soil. Communication, incorporating mathematical
logic, is going on all the time between particles and elements in
close proximity, and the seed gets, for its sustenance and growth
(depending on its peculiar location, environment and circumstance)
what is possible from the available elements in the vicinity. The
negatively and positively charged properties, (contracting, cooling
broadcasting, exploding) of the four original energies of the
universe, in quantum state, did not need any more prodding than the
temporary accommodation in each other´s company, at zero spaceless
compact point, and a sudden common language in the explosive
mathematics that accidentally triggered the evolution of the spirit
force field.
The
Jews where close to this knowledge but sounded mysterious and far
fetched to the ordinary ear. Kabbalah claims that: “The cosmos is
energy. En-Sof (our Tu-SoS) contains all the polarities of energies,
male and female, hot and cold, light and darkness. The Sefiroth are
the empty vessels into which En-Sof poured active principles in form
of points of light. Original energy principle creates forms for its
possible containment. Traces of this energy source are contained in
all things and particularly in living organisms. The Sefiroth
symbolizes the numerical grades of the supreme principles of cosmic
harmony.”
The
famous Jewish scholar, Nicholas Cusa, confirmed that there are a set
of numbers beyond our knowledge. “Number is the first model of
things in the mind of the Creator. …Mathematics is placed in a
field of knowledge between two complementary poles: one the world of
reality called exterior, the other, interior. These two worlds are
beyond consciousness. They are graspable as such but their imprints
appear in the field of consciousness. Mathematics shows the double
imprint.”
The
problem Scientists have been having resolving the issue of creation
appears to be due to their inability to subject the ´Spirit´
equation to experimentation because of the presence of space, time
and mass, and the lack of courage in admitting to themselves that
their ´Awesome, Almighty God,´ like the universe itself, is an
accident of birth after all. The ´Fifth´ energy (Tu-SoS) did not
start the process of creation. It emerged from that first outburst
of the standard model in singularity, to record it, and control,
permeate, and influence every atom since. Every atom including man,
is linked to the ´Spirit´ energy, and has been contributing to the
awesomeness in spirit and creativity without respite by being
something and doing something however small. Beyond these facts, it
is also possible that scientists are scared of what they might find
at the heart of ´Tu-SoS,´ which definitely is not the notion of God
as we understand it, but a kind of consciousness informing all other
energies, as the Africans and the mystics have always hinted.
However, scientists have abandoned ´ether´ studies that would have
led them to Tu-SoS, for the less controversial ´vacuum of virtual
particles,´ which is the current storm of scientific research
worldwide.
In
any case, why do we expect the ´Spirit Force Field´ (Tu-SoS) to
look like us when matter at source does not, and yet we are made
largely of matter? Particles, whether of matter or the Spirit Force
Field, evolve into a mirage of characteristics, looking nothing like
their original source. The folly of our thinking is crowned with
bloated ego. Ants, trees, goats, the sun, have spirit elements and
could claim that God is in their images too? Humans are not the
smartest objects in the universe. Even in our solar system, the sun
is more important than humans because if it dies, all living matter
in our planet would die because water would evaporate.
(C3)
Osahon´s theory on which came first, spirit or matter?
Spirit
came first and has been attaching to every living matter.
It
took 389,000 years for the universe to cool down enough for electrons
to find a place around a nucleus. Matter is the result of that
cooling effect and is the substance of the universe. Matter is
composed of tiny particles frozen or condensed by light into patterns
moving back and forth at average speeds which are less than the speed
of light. Matter´s particles are known as atoms and as they are
cured or conditioned in vacuum, breaking from matter, join together
to form chemical patterns (to create the animate and inanimate
objects) of the universe, including man. Although the spirit force
field is every where at once in our emvironment as ether, it sheds
parts of itself to attach in appropriate measure, shape or size, like
a halo, or invisible fog or transparent film, to every atom that
needs life, as the facilitating life-giver or energizing battery.
Scientists
say that ´ether´ exists as ethereal double, a kind of violet-grey
gas or aura, enveloping or attaching to all living things. Trees,
shrubs, animals, insects, birds, every atom that lives and grows, has
spirit. It is the halo or film shielding the trunks and leaves of
trees, or attached to bodies of birds, insects and animals. Without
spirit, matter, which although could be charged electrically, cannot
grow.
Science
confirms that all living forms are electrodynamic fields surrounded
by similar fields forming a matrix or mould to control growth and
repair the physical form. The energy field keeps the body alive and
links it with feelings, thoughts and astral forces. The energy field
can be recorded with the help of electronic lenses connected to a
high frequency generator. Russian scientists have used what they
call the Kirlian type photography to detect the plasmic states of
organism in plants and animals and to see part of the aura or
ethereal double. The ethereal double is one unified body of
electromagnetic field, which the Russian scientists call, “Biological
Plasmic Body.” The Kirlian photographs of objects such as hands and
leaves reveal a variety of sparks, colours and flares transmitting
from the object. Fresh leaves show strong vibrancy of the energy
pulses while dry leaves produce nothing. A rested quiet tempered
man´s fingers show even distribution of energy activities, while
tired fingers´ heightened vibrancy, suggests escaping energy.
Photograph of a whole fresh leaf show phantom energy field
surrounding it while that of a similar leaf with a part of it
cut-off, show the full original energy outline, but with the energy
activities weaker from the cut-off portion.
The
ethereal double occupies space some inches from the physical body
like a transparent film, screen or shield. All the spiritual
movements of the world are familiar with it. In Hinduism, it is
claimed that on the surface of the ethereal double, in the case of
humans, there are seven charkas or points of connection to the body.
Energy flows through the charkas to the body. In a spiritually
developed body, such energy points are flaming swirls of radiation.
In
the spiritually underdeveloped body, they form sluggishly revolving,
dim, two-inch deep circular depressions. The seven maelstroms rotate
endlessly, each connecting to the spine by a tube-like structure.
Energy from the spirit world flows into man through those vortices.
Each ´turning wheel´ or ´chakra´ has its peculiar force, spread
and function.
Clairvoyants
say the vortices in a healthy, active, spiritually developed person,
blaze as purls of radiation whereas in the less developed person, the
vortices appear as circular, sluggish moving two-inch depressions.
Medium who can see the ethereal double, divine by it. They say it
contains all the information (past, present and future) about the
person. So, everything about us can be gleaned from our spirit
double. It is like carrying a placard containing our lives´ history
about with us for the public to read.
Of
the seven charkas, two are at the lower level. The first receives
its vitality from the sun. The second is called the ´Kundaline
force,´ or the ´Serpent
fire.´ It flows along the
nerves and distributes its nerve fluid all over the body for daily
use. In medical science, the Kundaline
force is recognized as the
cerebro-spinal fluid. It is spiritual and when activated, the force
is volatile, speeding up through the central tube of the spinal cord
and the two strands bestriding the cord.
There
are three centers above the first two charkas. The third receives
vitality from the solar plexus and affects emotions and feelings.
The fourth is over the heart and receives ideas from exalted astral
forces. The throat vortex is the fifth, and is affected by mental
forces. The ´third eye´ is linked with the sixth center and is
between the eyebrows. “Lotus of a thousand petals,” describes
the seventh force, which is at the crown. It is the last to develop.
Each
charka, when developed, keeps the physical body fully active in line
with their corresponding celestial facilities. All these spiritual
activities on our physical bodies are not strange to medical science
although they describe the activities in medical terms. They tell us
that we breathe in ´ether´ with oxygen, to nourish our nerve sense
and enrich our blood with nitric oxide to dilate our arteries, to
facilitate increased blood flow. Breathing it out, enhances our
metabolism, and when out, mixes with carbon to become carbon dioxide,
to nourish plants and other life forms in nature´s continuous
evolutionary circle of activities.
In
science, we learn that light waves enter our eyes through ´ether´
to the sphere of our senses for sight, hearing, smell, taste, organs
of warmth etc., to launch a chemical process carried through our
muscles to sensitize the relevant organs of the body.
Spirit´s
electromagnetic link in humans is the umbilical cord, and it ties all
humans together from the first in history to the latest baby born any
where in the world. As with humans, so with other animals, plants
etc., that need or have life. Members of each specie are tied
together by a special spiritual cord or root, from the individual
first source to the latest, youngest of the specie.
(C4)
Osahon´s theory on spirit or soul permeating the physical body.
Spirit
through soul cannot saturate the human body until matter has died
within the body. The soul element in humans moves in the body, along
the nerve channels of lifeless matter.
Ether
is sensitive and communicative. We know this because of the endless
escapades of spirits around us. Ether helps to convey messages
between particles and also between humans, the elements and the
spirits, as in, for instance, sacrificially laced prayers, magic or
witchcraft. If natural elements, including leaves, plants, barks of
trees, roots, blood, even water, air, earth and fire are (put
together, mixed, brewed, blended, fermented) in correct proportions
and accompanied with carefully chosen messages (words) because it
would happen exactly as spoken, you trigger the attention of ether´s
spirit elements for dialogue and use.
Kabbalah
knows the power of words: “The secret world of the godhead is a
world of language, a world of divine names that unfold in accordance
with a law of their own. …..Letters and names are not only
conventional means of communication. They are more. Each one of
them represents a concentration of energy and expresses a wealth of
meaning, which cannot be translated or not fully at least, into human
language.”
With
words, you can make things that others may see as miracles happen.
You could move mountains, but you must first reach a level of
spiritual energy and sagacity. Providing more information than this
would prematurely turn all and sundry into demy-gods, dangerous to
themselves, communalism and globalization, the anchors of modern
civilization. Spirituality nurtures gradually at peculiar one-on-one
pace, because while we are all potential gods in our own rights, and
masters of our individual fates, we each have responsibility for the
well-being of others. Religion creates dichotomy between ´Gods´
and humans, to foster the master or select elite syndrome, numb the
minds of followers, to raise a loyal tribe of mindless servants,
useful as idiots.
All
forms, including humans, gain certain capacities as they evolve
through mineral, vegetable, and animal kingdoms. Humans are spirits
at less than the speed of ghosts, and are at the lowest level of the
spiritual energy field, but can grow. Spiritual movements divide the
spiritual learning field humans have to traverse into five plateaus.
What they call the Astral
field is at the lowest
level, and that is where most humans are.
This
is the level of materialism: money, technology, magic, decadence.
Most religious leaders operate at this level and can hardly ever rise
above it because of avarice. They restrict their followers mentally
and physically to the level, due to the leaders´ limited spiritual
advancement knowledge and self-indulgence. The next plane is the
Causal
field or the plateau of the karmic law. In other words, the cause
and effect region. This iron clad natural law, insists that you reap
what you sew. For universal harmony, therefore, every living atom
pays its due.
The
third region is the Ethereal
field where all records are kept. Knowledge of divination, dream
alert, premonitions and clairvoyance gifts hold sway here. It is
like a museum of all the happenings in the universe and our
individual ethereal double links with it. To reach this level to
interpret happening, predict events, and grow further spiritually,
the human organs must ferment, (almost die or die and reincarnate) to
allow the spirit energy to fully saturate the nerve channels of the
lifeless matter in the body. This is what the alchemic process is
about. It synchronizes our physical body with our spiritual double
through informed cleansing habits, fasting, meditation,
self-sacrifices, self-discipline and sharing. The process prepares
the body as the sepulcher of the spirit, or turns the body into the
philosopher´s stone.
The
fourth level is the Mental
field for creators,
innovators and geniuses. These are people we recognize as sages, the
wise ones or scientific wizards etc. The plane is separated from the
final one by a dark void. Any one who manages to break through the
dark void and survives is illuminated and emerges into the final
place of light.
The
final plane is the Soul
plane. It is the region of bliss and total enjoyment. That is why
spiritualists say the one with ultimate spiritual power is the
supreme enjoyer. In the Soul
plane, you lose all need of care and fear. You lack for nothing.
Whatever you ask, you get. You are a god among men. The spirit
energy virtually takes you by the hand to all the wonderful hidden
natural paradises of the universe. The few who get there hardly ever
want to return to our mundane, ugly, punishing world. They continue
their spiritually disciplined lives to be able to return to the abode
of spiritual bliss again and again at will.
Spiritualists
have been right all along to see evolution or creation in stages,
with the final period (i.e. the Fifth energy or element) unknown,
unnamed, unmanifested, (but according to some) to come at end times.
End times obviously meant unknowable, unsolvable, because time and
space have been created by the first Big Bang to make it impossible
to repeat the (beyond speed of light) speed of the ´Spirit Force
Field.´ The same way the Standard Model was killed to release the
Fifth energy or the ´Spirit Force Field´ and the Genesis of matter,
all the spiritual movements know too that if we deaden our body
organs well enough´ (i.e. reach timelessness or kill or weld our
four individual elements of water, fire, earth and air into one, to
achieve the philosopher´s stone) we could free our fifth element and
reach the Genesis of matter.
We
could then each visit the Spirit Force Field (energy) chambers for
spiritual rejuvenation and self-fulfillment and return at will. Many
are doing so already playing gods among men. To put it in the
layman´s language, the mystical state is a dying or death state.
The categorically spiritual exists at the death state of matter. All
human organs must die (be starved of food and nutrient) to release
the fifth energy in man, which is the spirit. That is why it is so
difficult for everyman to experience it.
A
baby, one second after birth is almost totally spiritual. Every
second it adds to life (eating and being nurtured) makes it less
spiritual. So too is the death state. The further away from dying
state your organs are, the more difficult it is to activate your
spiritual essence.
Thoth
(the African, known as Hemes Trismegistus in the West) invented the
process called alchemy. Thoth lived about 7,000 years ago and taught
mankind how to get to the land of bliss through the ten-step-process
of alchemy. Thoth said, every existing thing is composed of four
elements, (Fire, Water, Air and Earth) in unison. Each element in
turn consists of two qualities as follows: Fire (dryness and heat)
Water (moistness and coldness) Air (heat and moistness) Earth
(moistness and dryness.) An element may change into another by
substituting one quality for another. For example, if coldness is
replaced with heat in water, it changes into air (vapour.) In the
same way, transmutation is possible in the human stone through images
symbolic of death such as torturing, killing, separating etc. The
prime matter is possible only by the reduction of each element to its
essence and combined with other refined elements to reach the chaotic
state of original matter i.e. Genesis. The seed of things could then
be treated in a warm vessel or womb of resurrection of what had been
killed. By freeing and purifying ones own spirits, a reciprocal
event occurs in nature, but this could not be done without first
creating the philosopher´s stone. This is the fifth element; the
Prime matter of the world, the Fiat, which is the Word, the Pneumatic
Logo, the Spirit Force Field, called Tu-SoS, and which potentially is
within the capacity of every man.
As
man develops spiritually, he would be able to journey through space
by just closing his eyes and willing or commanding it to happen. The
spiritually powerful, whether acquired naturally as a gift of nature
or through the alchemic process, can do things others would consider
miracles. They can send own or other people´s spirits away from the
body at will on errands or operations to any point in the world. The
great ones tap into specific cosmic melodies other people around them
cannot hear. They create in the way we attribute to the Gods. Words
and numbers carry various spiritual energy properties, and reflect
the command (or mathematical) principle of creation. Manipulation of
these energies by adepts and sages produce the melodies or tunes to
play ´God.´
(C5)
Osahon´s theory on what
happens to spirit after the death of the physical body,
Spirit
and soul unite to become one and detaches from its dead body or dead
matter to try to return to the spirit world.
Spirit
detaches at death of its physical body, to return where possible, to
the spirit world. This is the craving of all spirits, with the most
spiritually gifted of them, when attached to physical human bodies,
hijacking or usurping the positions of the numerous Gods and deities
humans create largely out of fear of the unknown, helpless
veneration, and worship.
Yes,
there are Gods; humans create them and not the other way around.
Humans,
therefore, do not have any business worshipping their own creations.
We can admire them, show them off even, and we can ignore them. We
definitely can cohabit side by side with our Gods, with mutual
respect for each other´s limitations, but we do not need to worship
them.
The
choice is entirely that of the individual person to make though.
There is a ´Spirit world´ as distinct from the ´Spirit force
field.´ I suppose we could call the ´Spirit world´ heaven. It is
in parallel orbit with our world. It was not there from the advent
of the ´Spirit force field. It is like a half way house to the
´Spirit force field.´ It developed from when humans and other
elements of nature that have spirits, began to die and could not
transit immediately to the ´Spirit force field.´
In
the spirit world, there is no racism, leaders and icons are classed
by the degree of their spiritual prowess. The current king of what
might be called the African spirit world is my Genie. Baba Kola, who
calls me son, is to the spirit world, what Barack Obama is to our
world. Spirits live in great mansions, estates and dwellings like
ours; go to work, party and play; wear clothes (white on solemn or
ceremonial occasions); own cars and telephones; continue with their
dead marriage partners and children from earth. The kids go to school
or play football and other games. In short, spirits live identical
lives with ours except that they do not have churches and mosques.
Their spirituality is anchored on what we on earth describe as
witchcraft, which in truth, is the spiritual cleanliness and
adeptship of the individual spirit, based on the life lived on earth
moment by moment, day by day, close to nature. Spirits judge their
new arrivals individually and harshly over the period spent in the
world, and punish the guilty in grades that rise in range, from the
minimum of permanent
ostracization, constant
public ridicule and jeering.
(C6)
Osahon´s theory on stranded spirits and ghosts.
Stranded
spirits are revolving at less than the speed of spirits and cannot
transist to the spirit world until they acquire the speed of spirit.
The
Spirit Force Field, Tu-SoS, (or the Fifth energy of nature) revolves
at speed beyond the speed of light. Ether particles revolve at the
speed of gravity and, therefore, of light. Spirits revolve at less
than the speed of light and ghosts revolve at speeds less than that
of spirits, that is why we sometimes see the apparitions called
ghosts. We see them, when we do, because they are revolving at
speeds just a little above that of physical human bodies, which is
one of the lowest revolving speeds of the living elements of nature.
Ghosts have to achieve the full speed of spirits to be able to
transit to the spirit world and this is impossible until they can
free themselves from their human or physical ties. Most spirits
operating in our world are, therefore, ghosts largely willingly or
struggling or unable to acquire the speed of spirits.
(C7)
Osahon´s theory on aggrieved spirits or spirits denied proper
burial.
Aggrieved
spirits and spirits denied proper burial are ghosts and ghosts are
spirits that have not or cannot acquired the speed of spirits.
Some
ghosts voluntarily stay around us to cause havoc. By and large,
ghosts stay around their dead physical bodies until properly buried.
Ghosts cannot easily return to the ´Spirit world´ until all the
relevant people the spirit/human loved, particularly the children,
represented significantly by the oldest, show appreciation or
forgiveness, for the life spent here by the dead, by individually or
collectively with others, mourning the death in celebrative feasting,
or ritual traditions and established ethos of the family. Stranded
spirits or ghosts continue to haunt the world of the living and are
the ones that tend to cause pains in the lives of those who had hurt
them severely or they had hurt when alive and are refusing, or
unaware, or unable to, at least, symbolically or ritually send them
off with token ceremonies. Those they love, they continue to guide
and protect where possible and those they hate, they keep hurting
with illness and blocked fortunes. They do these, often from close
proximity that could include twiddling cheeks, arms, legs of subjects
to tease or alert; attachments to bodies of those they love or hate,
like arms wrapped around their waists or legs or as intangible
crawling sensation on the fringes of the hair on heads to attract or
plead for attention of loved ones or work towards retarding progress
of foes.
Ghosts
can also attach themselves to parts of body (say ribs or stomachs)
without displacing the bodies´ resident spirits. They can enter the
nose, ears of the living, attach themselves to inanimate things such
as totems or idols of worship, trees, or spots in vegetation,
forests, river banks, street junctions, market places, hill sides or
tops, abandoned homes, vacant lots, cemeteries; roam without
attachment and live like wretched paupers or beggars, exposed
perpetually to the vagaries of the weather and other hostile
environmental elements.
Most
times they take on the spirits of birds. Species of the birds
include: the owl; ´eleye´ the dove; ´eyeagba,´ which is supreme;
lantoro, a tiny specie, popular with spirits and sings like the
cricket; ´osere´ with long beak and sharp short squicks, and the
sparrow. The spirit birds deliver messages, ailments; foretell,
cure, warn, serenade or disturb their object of attention from close
proximity, at dawn and sunset daily, at least, until gotten rid of.
Ghosts can contract to pin point to attach to bodies of domestic
animals, flies, ants, cockroaches, insects, in homes to interfere
with thoughts, attack with ailments, poison water or food. They can
attach to fishes, crocodiles etc., in waters, to perform miracles;
and can transform, long term or temporarily, and at will, between
species.
Although
we often do not see ghosts/spirits with the naked eyes, our pets
(cats, dogs) see and react in the presence of ghosts or spirits.
Dogs bark repeatedly, cats recoil or sit still and watch with fixed
attention as if paralyzed or trying to psyche, and cocks crow
endlessly out of natural order, day or night. Apart from the spirits
of the dead, spirits of the living who have the spiritual know how,
can leave their physical bodies and attach temporarily or permanently
to animate or inanimate bodies or compete with body spirits that are
weak, helpless, absent or willing to share or swap places with them.
(C8)
Osahon´s theory on reincarnation.
Spirits
reincarnate.
Spirits
reincarnate through mineral, vegetable and animal forms. In humans,
reincarnation takes place when the spirit of the dead relocates to
that of another living human body or the baby being delivered from
the womb. Although all spirits can reincarnate, not all do so
immediately their physical bodies die. They mostly tend to
reincarnate by the age of great great grand parents in the spirit
world.
(C9)
Osahon´s theory on how spirits communicate with humans.
Spirits
use dream to reach us.
All
spirits, whether stranded or not, enter our dreams at will and
usually in the image and age we remember them. Spirits and ghosts can
influence the direction of our thoughts if our body spirits allow.
Loved ones always come, looking younger and prettier than when they
left us. This is to demonstrate their abiding love for us and also
so as not to frighten us. Because of the need not to frighten us,
they sometimes send messages through dreams of close associates to
us. If we are strong enough spiritually, they do not hesitate to
come to our dreams, particularly when the message is urgent and
critical. They come more often to us when we recognize and
appreciate them and invite their assistance and attention. Evil
spirits, come looking evil, repulsive, ugly like the devil, maimed
one way or the other, and they trick us to drink or eat something
from them, or have sex with them, all in attempt to kill, hurt or
maim us, or weaken our spirits and defences for their attack. The
sex is to weaken us or have devil child for us to keep attacking us.
Ghosts
(or stranded spirits) invade our dreams and affect our thought
processes more often and directly than those that have successfully
transited to the spirit world, because they are around us, and have
issues to settle with us. We do not need to be scared because we can
talk back or cooperate, depending on the mission of the visiting
ghosts. We can use spiritual means or natural elements to remove
them from continuing to disturb us. Natural elements brewed in
correct proportions, sometimes could do it, if we seek help.
For
spirit flies that buzz in our ears to disturb our sleep, cockroaches,
insects that fly at us in unlikely places or drop in our food or
drinking water, particularly between mid-night and 3 am, we could
attack them with insect repellants. For spirit birds, catapults
sometimes come handy. Once killed in this way, they die at source if
still alive or become helpless to continue attacking us
(C10)
Osahon´s theory on how spirits know what we think.
Spirits
read our thoughts and see our lives rolled out backward and forward
like a film.
All
spirits, stranded or not, can read our thoughts; see our lives played
out like a video film backward and forward. They see what would
happen to us years ahead, when we are still rooted in the present.
All spirits, all ghosts, can watch our doings even at our most secret
and intimate moments. This is the advantage they have over the living
and which frightens us of them. All diviners and religionists who
claim to see or predict happenings, regardless of medium, consult and
divine through their adopted spirits or spirits that adopt them. It
is the spirits of the dead that deliver messages to diviners,
regardless of the medium: church, mosque, cults, secret societies, or
shrines.
(C11)
Osahon´s theory on who humans pray to.
All
humans pray to their ancestors, not ´God.´
All
spirits can hurt or help the living, some more so than others. The
more spiritually gifted ones are turned to Gods by the living seeking
their intervention. When we pray, it is to our guardian spirits, the
spirits that know us individually and care about us, such as of our
dead parents, husbands, wives, siblings, children and close relatives
that we pour out our hearts, without knowing that this is what we are
doing. They are the only ones, whose listening devices or antennae
are permanently tuned to us individually, and whose acute undivided
attention, is forever fixed on us. They are the only ones who take
our prayers to heart because they know us intimately and care. They
are the ones who try to help as best as possible, despite difficult
physical barriers and constraints. They are the only ones who come,
and can come quickly to our aid, because they have a stake in our
welfare and well-being. In some cases, they act out of guilt feeling
of having left us abruptly, or so soon before fulfilling certain
obligations and commitments owed us. Spirits cannot put money in our
hands physically while we are awake, but can do it symbolically in
dreams, or bring us luck in business, or introduce us to someone to
help us in our endeavours.
Modern
religions, as against spirituality, discourage us from giving credit
to whom credit is due because religion is a gigantic money spinning
industry requiring crowds of dedicated, selfless, helpless,
followers, paying tithes and providing finances to the exclusive
benefit of a select elite. The leaders brainwash us into giving with
unquestioning loyalty and submission, and to credit their Gods solely
with all our good fortunes, and blame ours or the devil exclusively
for all our misfortunes. But all Gods are man-made, and since all the
Gods and spirits in the universe cannot solve all of mankind´s
problems that keep increasing daily, all at once, spirits start by
first taking care of their own, naturally.
(C12)
Osahon´s theory on the number of the spirit force field.
The
spirit force field is only one, it has no duplicate.
Most
scientists agree that our constellation is only a baby and that there
may have been others before ours. That the marriage of atomic and
other forces that brought our firmament into being repeats itself ad
infinitum, and depending on intensity, creates new matter, other
pockets of energies, and explosions. Definitely, further explosions
of the original four principal energies of nature have continued by
accident after the Big Bounce, to keep the universe expanding,
including the explosion that created our solar system 4.6 billion
years ago. Because these Baby Bangs are happening after space and
matter have formed, the spirit force fields the Baby Bangs give birth
to, are contaminated ´ghost force fields,´ weak and diluted. Space
and matter interfere with their strength and speed and so are
absorbed after a process of refinement, by the original, solid,
powerful, revolving at about the speed of light ´Spirit force
field.´ This is a good thing because otherwise, conflicting and
competing ´Spirit force fields´ would have resulted in more than
one universe, and contradicting and confusing natural order of
things.
