Water spring

In every drop of water dwells a deity

The Elucidation is an anonymous Old French poem of the early 13th century, which was written to serve as a prologue to Chrétien de Troyes‘ Perceval, le Conte du Graal. It is preserved in only one manuscript, Mons 331/206 (olim 4568), and in the Prose Perceval printed in 1530. Moreover, a German translation by Philipp Colin and Claus Wisse appeared in...

Is Time only an illusion?

The break between the scientific comprehension of time as well as our general knowledge of time has bothered thinkers all through history. It has deepened since physicists have slowly stripped time of most of the characteristics we usually ascribe to it. Now the rift between the time of physics and the time of experience is approaching its logical conclusion, for many...

The Road to Reality – Laws of the Universe

What laws govern our universe? How shall we know them? How may this knowledge help us to comprehend the world and hence guide its actions to our advantage? Since the dawn of humanity, people have been deeply concerned by questions like these. At first, they had tried to make sense of those influences that do control the world by referring to the kind of understanding that was available from their own lives. They had imagined that whatever or whoever it […]...

Schauberger and the Secrets of Natural Energy

A hundred thirty years ago, a man called Viktor Schauberger was born into his role as a guardian of Lady Nature and the earth. Among the magnificent Austrian forest he grew up wanting only to become a forest warden “like my father, grandfather, great-grandfather and his father before him.” But life was to take him far from the peace and solitude...

Living Energies

Throughout recorded history humanity has been periodically uplifted by the contributions of a few gifted and enlightened individuals, whose teachings and philosophy have gradually raised the level of human awareness. Lesser mortals have also played a vital role in this process and the seeding of human consciousness with higher truths always seems to come at a time when humankind as a...

Do you know what time it is?

Do you know what time it is? That question may perhaps be asked a lot more these days than ever. In our clock-studded modern society, the answer is only a peek away, therefore we are able to “blissfully” partition our days into ever smaller sized increments for ever more neatly scheduled jobs, assured that we will always know it really is now 7:03 a.m. Contemporary scientific revelations regarding time, however, turn the question indefinitely frustrating. If we look for an […]...

Intentionality, Uncertainty & Free Will

Otto Maier like Heisenberg certainly had some most extraordinary concepts in physics and reality. Arthur Young wrote a remarkable book: Reflexive Universe, The Geometry of Meaning, and the important compendium Consciousness and Reality, co-edited with mathematician Charles Musès. Young stressed the nature of intentionality, an area neglected by science, but that, in and of itself, is linked to the term “consciousness.”...
Descartes

Descartes radical shift in mathematics

If you have been the proverbial fly on the wall in Descartes’s bed-room in La Flèche, in southern France, in 1636, you may have watched Descartes laying in bed observing you. His most remarkable idea came to him while observing a fly crawl along a curved path, which he thought about illustrating in terms of its distance from the walls. A...

Essays in honour of David Bohm. Quantum Implications

David Bohm is one of the foremost scientific thinkers of today and one of the most distinguished theoretical physicists of his generation. His challenge to the conventional understanding of quantum theory has led scientists to reexamine what it is they are doing and to question the nature of their theories and their scientific methodology. Quantum Implications is a collection of original contributions by many ofthe world’s leading scholars and is dedicated to David Bohm, his work and the issues raised […]...
seconds

The second is the center of all knowledge

The second or time itself appears to be a very simple topic. Something humanity takes for an established truth. Humanities’ current understanding of time is deterministic. That is one causality event leads to another causality event. Just like falling domino stones. We determine those moments or events relating to a second which means that we measure a subdivision of the second in tenths...

No one really understands quantum theory

According to the great Richard Feynman, no one really understands quantum theory. It presents us with a truly bizarre picture of Reality, a picture that, for a long time, we have only succeeded in making intelligible by supposing that the existence and character of reality depends on our own minds. This view is known as the Copenhagen Interpretation (named after the...

Can fantasy have any genuine role to play in our basic physical understanding?

Roger Penrose; Can fantasy have any genuine role to play in our basic physical understanding? Surely this is the very antithesis of what science is about, and should have no place in honest scientific discourse. However, it seems that this question cannot be dismissed as easily as might have been imagined. And there is much in the workings of nature that appears fantastical, according to the conclusions that rational scientific thought appear to have led us to when addressing sound […]...
