A broad outline of future discoveries concerning the workings of Nature, and of science's reconciliation with religion.
"If a complete unified theory was discovered, it
would only be a matter of time before it was
digested and simplified ... and taught in schools,
at least in outline. We should then all be able to
have some understanding of the laws that govern
the universe and are responsible for our
existence."
("A Brief History of Time" by Stephen Hawking,
Introduction by Carl Sagan)
I saw a video ("Hidden Dimensions: Exploring
Hyperspace") in which it was stated that
mathematicians are free to imagine anything while
physicists work in a very different environment
constrained by experiment, and that the American
physicist Richard Feynman (1918-1988) said
scientists work in a straitjacket. Well, Albert
Einstein (1879-1955) said "Imagination is more
important than knowledge" so let's see what
happens when we throw away everyday tradition
and conformity, let our imaginations fly (while
trying to stay grounded in science and
technology), and thus release science from its
straitjacket!

This book is the companion volume of "Neutrosophic Interpretation of Tao Te
Ching,” its purpose is to extend the foundation and application range of “The
Analects of Confucius.” The reasons for this are as follows. Firstly, we are willing to
point out that The Analects of Confucius already has some limitations, because
many questions we are interested in cannot be answered within “The Analects of
Confucius.” For example, The Analects of Confucius basically discussed the
matters in China, however considering all possible situations it should matter in
foreign countries as well, i.e. the “global village.” This was impossible in Confucian
time. Secondly, if the original The Analects of Confucius is regarded as “The
Positive Analects of Confucius,” its opposite would be “The Negative Analects of
Confucius,” while the intermediate or compound state is “The Neutral Analects of
Confucius” or “The Neutrosophic Analects of Confucius.” Thus, our book presents
the way to extend the original The Analects of Confucius in various neutrosophic
interpretations.
本書是《道德經的中智學解讀和擴充—正反及中智道德經》的姊妹篇,其目的是試圖
從形式和內容上對《論語》進行求新、求變、求擴充的工作。首先我們願意指出,由於時
代的限制,《論語》具有很大的局限性,當代人感興趣的很多問題,在《論語》中根本不可
能涉及。舉例來說,《論語》討論的基本上都是中國的事情,然而考慮一切可能的情況,在
研究某些問題時,不但要考慮中國的事情,而且要考慮外國的事情,亦即考慮資訊網路時
代“地球村”的事情,這在孔子年代是不可能的。其次,如果將原有的“論語”視為“正
論語”,其對立面就是“反論語”,而處於中間或複合狀態的就是 “中性論語”(或“中智
論語”)。本書給出了對於原有的《論語》用中智學方法進行解讀和實施千變萬化的途徑,
使其可以在相當大的範圍內擴充。

A novel conceptual model is described for time, one that is independent of existing theories. The cordus conjecture suggests that time consists of frequency oscillations of matter. The arrow is applied to time where irreversibility arises. The interconnectedness of matter, via its fields, creates a patchwork of temporal cause-and-effect. At its most basic level time originates with the frequency cycles of the particules of matter and photons. The rate of time is thus determined by the mass of the particule, in turn how it is assembled, from what subcomponents, and the external environment (hence also time-dilation). Thus time is locally generated, and cordus rejects the idea of an absolute clock. The forward arrow is only applied to the ticks of time when irreversibility arises. The paper explains how the irreversibility arises, in terms of the interaction between two volumes of matter and the statistically impossibility of returning all particules in the system to their original positions and states. Thus decoherence, irreversibility, entropy, cause-and-effect, and the arrow of time all arise at the same discontinuity in physics. There is a connectedness between volumes of matter that are at different geometric locations. A phenomena that occurs in one volume is communicated via photons, or massy particules, or fields, to other matter around it. This communication applies cause positional constraints on the recipient. The combination of connectedness, frequency, and irreversibility, results in temporal cause-and-effect. Thus human perceptions of time are a construct, with all the potential for illusion that implies, founded on a real physical principle of temporal causality. Time is a series of delayed irreversible interactions (temporal ratchets) between matter, not a dimension that can be traversed in both directions. Cordus provides a more basic concept of time from which quantum mechanics and general relativity emerge as different approximations. The resulting conceptual model provides a novel integration of quantum mechanics, general relativity, and the human-perception models of time.
