Recently, I saw some connections between a few ideas. These connections include quantum phenomena, the probable nature of reality, the big bang, and what many spiritual traditions deem as a separation from the source of creation. Some new age and self help gurus, as well as experimental scientists and psychologists advocate focusing on the positive things in life and positive attitudes so as to create positive outcomes. I have researched some Eastern religions over the span of my life as a scientific layman, and I often note that these religions give homage to negative aspects of reality.
In the Western world, the negative aspects of reality traditionally don't sell politics, businesses, financial frauds, marketing schemes, advertising, etc. so it's suppressed. The Western world is completely invested in its own bubble of illusion as evidenced by a never ending debt, both in Europe and in America. What I'm attempting to explain is that, even though there are an infinite number of probabilities to our realities, there's still a general model or structure to the universe of probable universes.
To begin with, I apply the cyclical and dichotomous nature all of our physical reality is based in to the unfathomable domain of probabilities. I assume that our world, our personal lives, and the universe is a probable based reality in which free will has the opportunity to express itself in the myriads of decisions made through our selves. I see an inchoate quality of Ying and Yang in the vast, multidimensional ocean of probabilities. And I believe that at least the physical universe seeks homeostasis. Homeostasis is how the human body works in its natural state, and homeostasis is how the ecological system on earth works when it is in its natural state. Even when the body is diseased, or the earth is polluted, these systems still seek out balance.
While imbalances are a part of the Ying Yang quality that permeate the probable nature of the universe and ourselves, these qualities are still seeking homeostasis. After exploring this idea in a little depth, I can simplify it. The probable nature of reality is regulated by homeostatic balances. The great separation, or big bang, that I mentioned as a couple of the original ideas that I saw connections to can be re-interpreted into a sort of myth. Events that most people associate with the darker aspects of reality, such as loss and death, are really the mourning of a spiritual separation from the source from which human souls and spirits came.
Living a life on earth as a physical being really is a great loss in itself. We decide to forget our heritage, our previous lives, and our exponential abilities as an agreement to live a very focused and extremely limited life on earth. Many a philosopher has noted the forgetful nature of humankind. The great mourning of separation from the source of all creation would tend to make all of creation mourn its loss. And yet it's really a sacrifice for consciousness to experience self-hood, individuality, and differentiation. We are all separate individuals. At one time, supposedly, everything was one. We mourn this loss in uncountable ways in this state with which we find ourselves. We are expressions of the desire to be separate, and to experience creation as "separate" creations.
Existence on earth is a bi-polar and dichotomous "physical" reality. It's a temporal state for a transient consciousness to process through and grow, develop, and die. We have night and day. We have old and young. There is hot and cold, and there is North and South. As humans, we have categorized all of these phenomena into a system of duality that is stereotypically easy to understand without too much thought. If you consider the nature of quarks and their behavior of "spin," or, if you observe the negative charges of electrons, and the positive charges of protons, you see that atomic and sub-atomic particles give expression to the dual nature of reality, and also the concept of homeostasis.
Atomic and sub-atomic particles have shown us that they aren't necessarily solid and constant pieces of matter. In fact, this level of "physical" reality is really a medium of bundles of waves, and energies. This level of reality has also shown scientists the unpredictable appearing and disappearing act that particles, in their more physical expression, display. Because the systems we are familiar with in the known universe seek homeostasis without our willful influences, I extrapolate that the probable nature of reality also seeks a general homeostasis. This is a much larger, more complicated idea to understand. Nevertheless, sub-atomic particles really are weaving in and out of different probabilities in the disappearing acts that they display when observed.
The matter that composes our bodies is really one big, complicated wave assimilation when it is understood that matter is really just quanta, or bundles, of energy. I saw a movie a while back based on Phillip K. Dick's novel, A Scanner Darkly. In the beginning of the movie, a man is shown speaking to an audience. The surface of his clothes and body is constantly morphing and changing into different people, like he's a chameleon of constantly changing identities. This movie gives a good visual example on a humanly understandable level of the unpredictable, and changing reality that happens on a sub-atomic level.
This is where I conclude my theory that the probable based reality that we determine is regulated and structured by a generally negative and positive quality. The negative experiences we have are counter-balanced by the positive ones, and conversely. Every time we experience a loss of a loved one, or a change in our lives for the worse, we're actually re-experiencing the very first separation we had from the source of creation. All the tragedies we experience are just part of this great ongoing mourning. Yet, this is only a half of the experience of creation. The other half, of course, is reunifying, coming together, harmony, and so forth.
Many authors have noted that the only two most basic emotions we can ever really experience as human beings is either love or fear. There are an infinite number of nuanced emotions we can experience, of course, but love and fear seem to be the roots of them all. And we don't experience love and fear simultaneously. This is why I conclude that the multi-dimensional ocean of probabilities is really just cycles of experiencing, and re-experiencing love or fear. Just like there is night and day on planet earth. The experience of fear is not necessarily completely a thing to be eliminated absolutely, as it is just part of a cycle of experience. It is one side of the probable nature of reality seeking homeostasis. Through our own inherited willfulness, we can indeed persist in manifesting perpetual experiences of fear however. I theorize that this propensity only awaits a counterbalancing so as to fulfill homeostasis. This is much like the nature of a swing swinging back and forth. The harder one pushes the swing to go higher, the harder it will plummet to the ground, and then on to the other side of the set from its inevitable reversing points.
As I said before, the traditional 20th century Western world has done most everything to suppress the negative aspects of reality and of experience. Death, for example, is a thing most Americans try very hard to be unaware of and unfamiliar with. We like to put our elderly in nursing homes. We put our dead in graveyards away from our living places. We dread any kind of loss, and constantly seek any kind of gain for ourselves. Western worlds have not always been like this though. Death was a more accepted and real experience in the lives of people during medieval times.
Eastern religions show a much more accepting attitude towards death and experiences of fear. I think that the Western world would do well to embrace this general attitude that Eastern people hold, as our world is on the brink of financial collapse. Western governments have been designed on concepts of perpetual and indefinite expansion. This false assumption has brought the Western world into the biggest debt in all of economic history. Western planners of economy, politics, and society did not implement the natural ebb and flow of nature into the architecture of the Western world. Because of this, the loss and collapse is even more detrimental to Western people due to their indoctrination that gain is the only possibility to any kind of fulfillment.
Mankind is not the ruler over all of nature and the universe. Nature, and the probable nature of reality, have ways of regulating imbalances and eliminating excessive toxins. And it is mankind's wayward will that will be kept in check. Even if we do bring ourselves to ecological suicide, the planet will re-evolve a new intelligent form of life after our own age has come and gone as the human species. And, even if we do destroy planet earth so completely that life cannot exist on it, there will be other worlds in the universe that will evolve other intelligent life-forms who will then serve as homeostatic balances in the vast fabric of existence.
