The Error - The Motion of Discrete Particles in Space and Time

For the past 350 years (since Newton) we have tried to describe an interconnected reality(which has been known for thousands of years) with many discrete and separate 'particles'. Thus you have to add forces or fields to the particles to connect them together in space and time. This is merely a mathematical solution and it does not explain how discrete matter particles create continuous fields that act on other particles in the space around them. Further, both quantum physics (particle-wave duality, non-locality, uncertainty) andEinstein's general relativity (matter-energy curves space-time) contradict the concept of discrete and separate 'particles'.

The Solution - The Wave Motion of Space Causes Matter and Time

We simply needed to describe reality from the most simple foundation of the one thing, Space, that all matter exists in (look around you now and think about this - we all experience existing in space).
This leads to only one solution, a Wave Structure of Matter in Space from which we then deduce the fundamentals of physics, philosophy and metaphysics to show that it is correct (and scientific / testable, not just our opinion).

Fig. 1: There is no particle-wave duality of matter, just a spherical standing wave structure of matter where the wave center creates the 'particle' effect, and the spherical in and out waves provide continual two way communication with all other matter in the universe.

We only see the high wave amplitude wave-center and have been deluded into thinking matter was made of tiny little 'particles'. A very naive conception in hindsight - and quantum physics was telling us all along that waves were central to light and matter interactions!

Deducing Reality - Uniting Metaphysics with Science

There are just two steps to deducing the truth about your existence in the universe.
And I emphasize that none of this is my opinion - everyone will come to the same conclusions since it is deduced.

1. Deduce that Space is One Active Substance: Unite Science & Metaphysics: Most Simple Science Theory of Reality

Science requires physical reality to be logical, sensible and simple (Occam’s razor). Metaphysics requires the existence of one active substance to explain the causal connection between the many things we experience, as Leibniz simply states;

“Reality cannot be found except in One single source, because of the interconnection of all things with one another. ... I maintain also that substances cannot be conceived in their bare essence without any activity, activity being of the essence of substance in general. (Gottfried Leibniz, 1670)

This dynamic unity of reality from one active substance, required to explain how reality is connected together and changing (causal connection) is well known throughout history, the ancient Greeks (and Indians, Chinese, many others ...) realised this 2,500 years ago, as Aristotle in his famous metaphysical treatise writes;

"The first philosophy (Metaphysics) is universal and is exclusively concerned with primary substance. ... And here we will have the science to study that which is just as that which is, both in its essence and in the properties which, just as a thing that is, it has. ... The entire preoccupation of the physicist is with things that contain within themselves a principle of movement and rest. And to seek for this is to seek for the second kind of principle, that from which comes the beginning of the change." (Aristotle, Metaphysics, 340BC)

Given we all experience many minds and many material things, but always in one common Space, and since we must describe physical reality in terms of only one substance, we must conclude this one substance is Space. (If you try using many things, like matter or minds, you have to add a second thing to connect these many things together and this contradicts our rules of science and metaphysics.)

So now we are considering the properties of this space to explain activity / motion.
Look around you in space and notice that light comes in to you from all directions. This light has well known discrete ‘particle’ and continuous wave properties (the famous particle-wave duality of both light and matter). However, we cannot add discrete and separate particles to space (a second substance is not allowed) but we can have space vibrating (a property of space as a wave medium). Thus we come to the necessary conclusion that this one substance must be space, and this space must have waves flowing through it in all directions (since we can see things in all directions).

Thus we have our one active substance - vibrating space (the wave motion of space) and this is the cause of change / time. (Interestingly, Aristotle also realised this connection between time, matter and motion - the common mistake was to consider the motion of matter in space and time - rather than the wave motion of space that causes matter and time.)

Finally, we must consider what kind of waves can flow in all directions through three dimensional space. We find the most simple solution is two dimensional plane waves moving in the third dimension.

So let us now simply state our conclusion - our truth statement for what exists.

One Active Substance (Three Dimensional Space) Exists and has Plane Waves Flowing Through it in All Directions.

This is the most simple way to describe physical reality that is in harmony with science and metaphysics - and it is a valid scientific model that can be mathematically treated to make testable predictions.

Fortunately for us, a brilliant philosopher, metaphysicist and mathematician, Sir William Rowan Hamilton (1843) invented quaternions, a three dimensional algebra that does exactly this - they represent the motion of real things in real three dimensional space. Hamilton believed this mathematics was special and would be important to physics (he carved it on a stone bridge, as he was walking when he thought of it and did not want to forget!).

And it turns out he was correct about its importance - in fact he was 60 years ahead of Einstein in connecting three dimensional space (x,y,z) with time (t) into a four dimensional space-time continuum in one quaternion equation

q = t + ix + jy + kz where the i, j, and k terms are imaginary numbers such that i² = j² = k² = ijk = -1

"Time is said to have only one dimension, and space to have three dimensions. ... The mathematical quaternion partakes of both these elements; in technical language it may be said to be 'time plus space', or 'space plus time': and in this sense it has, or at least involves a reference to, four dimensions. And how the One of Time, of Space the Three, Might in the Chain of Symbols girdled be." (W R Hamilton)

It is beautifully elegant mathematics that perhaps scares off many people because of its use of imaginary numbers i, j, k. But these just represent 90 degree rotations. Thus i² = -1 really means a 180 degree rotation which reverses an object's direction, hence the negative sign.
So whenever you see ix, jy and kz you are considering vectors on orthogonal planes (90 degrees, perpendicular, at right angles) to the x, y and z axis. This then gives us the four dimensional mathematical structure to represent plane waves flowing through 3D space.

So now we are in a position to test this wave theory of reality to see if it correctly deduces the properties of matter that we observe in the space around us.

"This website is about truth and reality - about how you and everything around you exist in space.

We have an extensive collection of pages on many of the greatest minds from history, with thousands of brilliant quotes that are both inspiring and profoundly important. More than this though, we provide a simple solution to many of the problems of knowledge that have caused humanity so much conflict and confusion.
And yes, we do realise that people are skeptical of websites on truth and reality.

But the solution is obvious once known - it just takes our minds a while to adjust to new ways of thinking."
