E=MC2 is the verbal-analytical expression of that multidimensional thinking – a way of entering into the realization that the physical universe is a paradox of light. Thus we must understand that the universe of our experience is not merely a sequence of physical events and a material effect of the past. The material universe is a present expression of light. Matter is light. Matter or the total realm of nature, emanates presently from the matrix of light. The formula E=MC2 and the theories of relativity are expressions of the intuition that the universe is an awesome paradox, not a cause-and-effect simplicity. Everything is merely a transparent modification of the "consciousness being" or God. Scientists are not practitioners of true or esoteric religion. They do not observe the human body-mind with the same intensity as the rest of the physical universe. Most do not discover any higher personal implications of their scientific findings then to be intellectually serious. They do not enter into truly higher spiritual considerations. What is true of the so called physical universe is also true of the psycho-physical human being. EINSTEIN'S SCIENTIFIC CONSIDERATIONS ARE BASICALLY A REPETITION OF ANCIENT ESOTERIC AND PARADOXICAL DESCRIPTIONS OF THE UNIVERSE. His work has legitimized, in the mathematical, scientific terms of the present, a certain level of higher consideration about material existence. We have, in both the popular and academic areas of our industrial societies, accepted the general and technical implications of this very sophisticated and elaborate understanding of the elemental world. But we have not realized what that understanding implies about the world and mankind altogether. Human beings must become acculturated to living as energy or spirit-force instead of struggling in the barbaric mentality of the "flesh" and must develop a culture of men and women who are being "light" instead of merely being "matter," and that mortal thing that matter implies. We must return our attention to spiritual considerations. E=MC2 is the principle contribution of theoretical physics to date. It is the premiere archetypal scientific discovery of the twentieth century. The idea legitimized by the formula E=MC2 is the greatest scientific discovery of our time. Because it has the most archetypal force. Thus there are many positive cultural implications in the archetypal formula, or rediscovery communicated by E=MC2. Like "Jesus is risen from the dead," is not made of words but of archetypal symbols, or pure significance, i.e., the ancient "good news" and understanding is communicated again in terms of twentieth century logic. Jesus is risen from the dead and E=MC2 are the same truth stated in the terms of two different epochs of human understanding. There should be no difference between "true" religion and "true" science. The ultimate realization is a transcendental awakening, also called, enlightenment, Satori, Nirvana, Samadhi, Tao, at-onement, etc. into the domain in which even light, or space, or change, or energy, or matter, or the physical body, or even nature itself, which is essentially the play of light, are all arising. And therefore mankind will be realized as nothing but radiant consciousness, which is the SELF that is God. -Franklin JonesIt is not what we find out about the universe that matters. What matters is our moment to moment emotional relationship to the universe and to the "condition" in which the universe is always suddenly arising. 144.2www.guardiantext.orgPreviousTable of ContentsNextHome |
