Energy Is..

[Guest guest]

Various facts from sceintific observation, combined with theory,

suggest the following conclusions:

 

a. That if the history of the stellar universe were traced back far

enough in time we would find a stage wherein there were no stars,but

only a more or less homogenous matter and radiation spread uniformily

throughout space.

 

b. That if we could follow the life of the systems of stars far

enough into the future, we would come to a time when most matter, if

not all, would be reduced or transformed into radiation extending

throughout space.

 

c. That the two notions of conservation of mass and of energy must be

united into the conception of a persistent Energy which may appear in

the forms of ponderable mass or of field energy, the latter including

that which is termed radiant energy.

 

These conceptions leave us with but one " invariant, " i.e., Energy

which may appear at certain times as ponderable matter, and at others

as transformed into the state of radiant energy.

 

ERGO:

 

Energy is.

 

Before ponderable matter was,Energy is.

 

Though ponderable matter seems to exist,

 

Energy is.

 

When ponderable matter vanishes,

 

yet remaining through all unaffected, Energy is.

 

Outside of Energy nothing is.

 

Within the bosom of

 

Energy lies

 

the power of awareness that projects ponderable matter.

 

When ponderable matter is projected

 

the power of awareness as subject is presupposed,

 

yet Energy

 

remains unchanged.

 

When ponderable matter is born, then,

 

likewise, consciousness of radiant energy arises.

 

Cnosciousness of ponderable matter is the Universe.

 

Consciousness of radiant energy is Nirvana.

 

Within Energy lie

 

both ponderable matter and radiant energy,

 

yet for Energy these two are the same

 

Within Energy

 

lies the seed of Time

 

When awareness cognizes Time

 

knowledge of Timelessness is born.

 

To be aware of Time is to be aware of

 

ponderable matter, and to be aware of ponderable matter

 

is to be aware of Time

 

To realize Timelessness is to attain Nirvana

 

But for Energy

 

there is no difference between

 

Time and Timelessness

 

Within Energy

 

lies the seed of world-containing Space

 

When awareness cognizes the

 

world-containing Space then knowledge of

 

the Spatial Void is born.

 

To be aware of the world-containing Space

 

is to be aware of the Universe of ponderable matter

 

To realize the Spatial Void

 

is to awaken to Nirvanic Consciousness

 

But for Energy

 

there is no difference between the world containing

 

Space and the Spatial Void

 

Within Energy

 

lies the seed of Law

 

When consciousness of ponderable matter is born

 

The Law is invoked as a Force

 

tending ever toward Equilibrium

 

Consciousness of the field of tensions

 

is the Universe

 

Consciousness of Equilibrium is Nirvana

 

But for Energy

 

There is neither tension nor equilibrium

 

The state of tensions is the state of

 

ever-becoming.

 

Ever becoming is endless-dying

 

So the state of ponderable matter

 

is a state of ever-renewing promises

 

that pass into death at the moment of fulfillment.

 

Thus when consciousness is attached to

 

ponderable matter the agony of birth and death never ceases.

 

In the state of Equilibrium

 

where birth cancels death

 

the deatless Bliss of Nirvana is realized.

 

But Energy

 

is neither agony nor bliss.

 

Out of the Great Void

 

which is Energy

 

the Universe is creatively projected.

 

The Universe as experienced is the

 

created negation that ever resists.

 

The creative act is bliss

 

the resistance, unending pain.

 

Endless resistance is the

 

Universe of experience; the agony of crucifixion.

 

Ceaseless creativeness is Nirvana,

 

the Bliss beyond human conceiving.

 

But for Energy

 

there is neither creativeness nor resistance.

 

Ever-becoming and ever-ceasing to be

 

are endless action.

 

When ever becoming cancels the

 

ever-ceasing-to-be then Rest is realized.

 

Ceaseless action is the Universe.

 

Unending Rest is Nirvana

 

But Energy

 

is neither Action nor Rest.

 

When consciousness is attached to ponderable matter

 

it is restricted through forms imposed by

 

the world-containing Space, by Time and by Law.

 

When consciousness is disengaged from

 

ponderable matter, Liberation from the forms of the

 

world-containing Space, of Time, and of Law

 

is attained.

 

Attachment to ponderable matter is

 

consciousness bound within the Universe.

 

Liberation from such attachment is

 

the State of unlimited Nirvanic Freedom.

 

But Energy

 

is neither bondage nor freedom.

 

Energy

 

may be symbolized by a SPACE that is

 

unaffected by the presence or absence of ponderable matter,

 

for which there is neither Time nor Timelessness;

 

neither a world-containing Space nor a Spatial Void;

 

neither Tension nor Equilibrium;

 

neither Resistance nor Creativeness;

 

neither Agony nor Bliss; neither Action nor Rest;

 

and neither Restriction nor Freedom.

 

As the GREAT SPACE is not to be

 

identified with the Universe

 

so neither is It to be identified with any self.

 

The GREAT SPACE is not God,

 

but the comprehender of all Gods,

 

as well as all lesser creatures.

 

The GREAT SPACE, or Energy, is the

 

Sole Reality upon which all ponderable matter,

 

and all selves depend and derive their existence.

 

The GREAT SPACE comprehends both the

 

Path of ponderable matter and the Path of Nirvana.

 

Besides the GREAT SPACE

 

there is none other.

LIGHT-LIGHT INTERACTIONS IN VACUUM will be possible soon.

Vacuum---the very name suggests emptiness and nothingness---is

actually a realm rife with potentiality, courtesy of the laws of

quantum electrodynamics (QED). According to QED, additional (albeit

virtual) particles can be created in the vacuum, allowing

light-light interactions. Physicists from Umea University (Sweden)

and the Rutherford Appleton Lab (UK) hope to explore the vacuum by

aiming three powerful laser streams at each other. The laser light

is not aimed at any material target and is not trying to initiate

any nuclear fusion. Instead the three beams will merge to produce a

fourth stream with a wavelength shorter than any of the input

beams. This idea of mixing beams has been broached before but the

earlier proposals had the beams all in a single plane. The

Swedish-British proposal (contact Mattias Marklund, 46-90-786-7717,

mattias.marklund), by contrast, foresees a fully

three-dimensional wave mixing process. The actual experiment is

planned to be carried out over the next year at the Rutherford

Appleton Lab. By carefully polarizing the incoming light beams, the

number of photons in the output beam can be controlled, providing

valuable information about the interactions that took place in the

vacuum. What is this " four-wave mixing " good for? For studying QED

itself, but also for testing theories that propose the existence of

minor departures from Lorentz invariance, which is the proposition

(essential to special relativity) that there is no preferred frame

of reference. Light-light interactions might also be used to

explore various hypotheses related to dark energy. (Lundstrom et

al., Physical Review Letters, 3 March 2006)
