Energy Thieves or Stewards of the Earth?

This Blog investigates the convergence of the two twins Science and Religion. I imagine the concepts of science and religion represent a duality that was born from a singularity simultaneously in the mind of man. My intent is to arrive at an all-embracing philosophy, so even alien theorists and theories still pending on the drawing board are welcome to participate in this discussion.

Captain Entropy and Mankind's Last Flight

A MODERN DAY PARABLE

Before proceeding with the story the reader first needs to acquire a basic understanding of Entropy and the Laws of Thermodynamics.

If you understand entropy and its implications for a peak oil world ... skip ahead to the parable 'Captain Entropy and Mankind's Last Flight'

What is Entropy?

An understanding of the 1st and 2nd laws of thermodynamics is critical here. You may recognize the first law, however most people are unfamiliar with the second.

The first law is the law of “conservation” which states that energy can be neither created nor destroyed only converted or transformed into another form.

It is imperative to realize that energy cannot be created from nothing. The technologies we have in place only serve to convert or transform energy from another source into an energy that we can utilize. There is no magic folks, our best scientists and engineers have not as of yet invented a perpetual motion machine, which would provide us with an unlimited cheap energy source. Energy cannot be created from nothing.

The second law could be referred to as the law of penalty or “entropy”.

“If the first law of thermodynamics were all that we had to consider, then there would be no trick at all using energy over and over again without ever running out of it. But we know that’s not the way the world works. For example, if we burn a piece of coal, the energy remains but is transformed into sulphur dioxide and other gases that then spread out into space. While no energy has been lost in the process, we know that we cannot burn that piece of coal and get the same work out of it. The penalty is a loss in the amount of available energy to perform work of some kind in the future. There is a term for this it is the second law of thermodynamics known as entropy.” -Jeremy Rifkin

Both laws of thermodynamics can be stated in one sentence:

The total energy content of the universe is constant and the total entropy is continually increasing. -Issac Assimov

“More important still, every time energy goes from one level to another, it means that less energy is available to perform work the next time around. For example, water going over a dam falls into a lake. As it falls, it can be used to generate electricity or turn a water wheel or perform some other useful function. Once it reaches the bottom, however, the water is no longer in a state to perform work. Water on a flat plane cannot be used to turn even the smallest water wheel. These two states are referred to as available or free energy states verses unavailable or bound energy states.”
-J. Rifkin

“In a closed system such as earth the tendency is to move towards a state of equilibrium. The state at which there is no longer any difference in energy levels. Energy always moves from the more concentrated state too the less concentrated state, from hot to cold. In the process, free or available energy is used up or dissipated. When energy becomes unavailable we use the term “heat death”. When matter becomes unavailable we use the term “matter chaos”. The result in both cases is entropy, a randomization of energy and matter both less concentrated and thus less fit to perform future useful work.”
- J. Rifkin

Entropy as stated in a closed system moves from a state of minimum entropy toward and ultimately reaches maximum entropy.

Physicists theorize that the universal “BIG BANG” was the result of an immense density of mass incredibly concentrated beyond belief, a singularity of unity that essentially came apart with a tremendous release of energy resulting in two distinct entities matter and anti-matter. There was a third entity formed as a result of the matter and anti-matter duality reaction. In this battle of apparent ‘opposites’, our universe and everything material was created out of annihilations leaving a residue of matter. There is also a fourth entity in the Universe called dark matter.

The Big Bang was the birth of duality and it’s offspring, our Universe. If this is the nature of our creation, our beginning, is it not possible that the energetic forces present at the time of creation, still play a part in the development or evolution of the universe? The two opposing forces represent the forces of creation that resides, permeates all of matter and energy here in this material 3rd dimension and throughout the entire universe.

So one of the two forces of duality here in the third dimension is a tendency that exists where the total energy is always progressing toward maximum entropy and the force in opposition is the ability to minimize entropy by minimizing the energy flow within the closed system. This I suggest can be done with the participation of mankind…this I view simply as exercising free will with awareness. Fulfilling our role as stewards of Mother Earth.

Essentially mankind by fully understanding, acknowledging and respecting the first law of conservation can use it to oppose the second law of penalty!

On to the tale ...

Captain Entropy and Mankind's Last Flight

Much of our current debate about a Peak Oil world has taken place with our feet firmly planted on the ground. Right? To gain a wider perspective of the situation I invite you to come along on a spaceship ride. I have one ticket left. Destination is a place known as 'the end of times'. An interesting cast of characters along for the flight. The 12 passengers onboard will represent the 12 tribes of mankind. Think of it as a flying Noah's Ark. You can choose between First Class and Third Class seating.

Please choose now.

All flights originate from Aumkara, Alpha or Genesis and Pilots can chose one of three destinations Omega, Svastika or Eschaton.

There is only one pair represented however on this ‘Ark’. It is the duality that exists within man himself. The Ark we shall call Gaia.

This is Spaceship Gaia's final voyage.

It is the 21st Century.

Captain Entropy is the pilot

The Captain has registered his flight plan and the destination is Eschaton.

On this flight The Trinity of Conflict, Judaism, Islam and Christianity occupy first class. This Trinity organizes and controls the ‘Human Doings’. They also were the creators of all the technology aboard this Spaceship.
On this flight The Trinity only number three and represent only 25% of the passenger payload but they occupy 90% of the cabin area. All of the stewards are also creations of the spaceship creators. They are androids. The androids replaced the slaves because the slaves had become too troublesome. Thus the androids were programmed to never accept the gift of free will. However they did accept tips, which went promptly to their Creators. The word android had evolved from the words andro (shortened from androgynous) and id (short for identification).

Of course the remaining 9 passengers representing the rest of humanity occupy the remaining 10% of the cabin area known as 3rd Class. Most of these passengers belong to a group called the Human Beings. However unlike first class with its' recliners, Jacuzzi, big screen TV, gym and spa, the 3rd class has few amenities. There are only hammocks, coir and yoga mats, and a few discarded mattresses from 1st class. There is no 2nd class.

Spaceship Gaia came with a disclaimer: Shortly after take off you will be served the Truth. By digesting the Truth, some people have complained of side effects, these include shock, dismay, anger, sorrow, hopelessness and suicide. We have found for most people these effects are temporary except for suicide. If suicide does occur, you will be offered another chance in the future, on another flight.

After digesting the Truth, passengers will be given a sedative called Faith.
THE CREATOR has found passengers get uneasy and restless having been served the Truth.

Captain Entropy proceeded to identify himself as an eternal pilot. He explained the meaning of his name in relative terms. He had received his name from the scientists of his day. He explained to the passengers that he was responsible for the Golden Age descending into chaos. He was also responsible for the decline of the Garden of Eden from a state of perfection.

Everyone in an instant collectively experienced a quantum leap of perspective. They immediately recognized Captain Entropy as one of his former incarnations. Depending on the passenger, each had a different cultural representation of the force Captain Entropy embodied. Those passengers in 3rd class that were still influenced by the religions and beliefs of the Cradle Civilizations saw Shiva, Sekhmet, Tiamat, Lucifer and Yin. All of the first class passengers immediately connected with an image of Satan.

Satan had formerly been known as Lucifer, a solar deity, a God of Light. He had been invited with a bribe to abandon the pagan Sun, Earth and Goddess worshipping cultures of the Cradle Civilizations. His perk would be that he would not need to share the 'slimelight’ with the other Pilots. With a name change to Satan, all three tribes from the west would then revere him. He could also double dip by still representing the east as a solar deity. It was explained to him the takeover of belief required a makeover of reality. He would as a result log much, much more flying time.

During the flight the passengers were told both cabin areas could select a Navigator. Each Navigator would represent one portion of a duality. The Navigator from first class represented the onboard Kinetic Energy. This represents the energy of Doing. The natural world is literally taken apart and then put back together, organized and identified with the aid of mankind's ‘Doing energy’. The Navigator representing the rest of humanity in 3rd class was the onboard Potential Energy of mankind. The energy of Being suggests that we learn how to just Be and not fulfill the need to Create. One represents matter and one represents energy. The two are equal because they can become each other. The two Navigators also had the wonderful esoteric ability to fuse into a singularity if equilibrium of pure thought was achieved.

Former Navigators were Mithras, Yang, Jesus, Buddha, Stalin, Krishna, Muhammad, Hitler, Capitalism and her supporters, ALL Wars, the Seven Sins and The Ten Commandments. THE CREATOR did allow for the duality of the Navigators to fuse and become one Navigator. Thus he could evolve into the Soul Navigator. The only way that the passengers could avoid reaching the final destination Eschaton and perhaps experience Godhead was with his aid. It is recorded that never had an entire payload reached Godhead. No Navigator had ever managed to hijack an entire payload of condemned Souls.

You see unless the Navigators managed to fuse Doing with Being Energy, Captain Entropy had no direction and just ran on autopilot taking his cues from no one. His Piloting became erratic. If Doing managed to fuse with Being, Captain Entropy then took his direction from the 'merged interests of humanity'. The Soul Navigator had the ability to over-ride the controls. The speed of Gaia could now be controlled and given some direction.

After several hours the passengers awoke having all shared the same dream. They had dreamed of Hope. Hope had been concealed in the sedative. When they awoke there were no longer any physical barriers dividing the first and third class. Everyone now sat on the floor, naked. As they slowly awoke and starred into one another’s eyes they saw themselves. Only themselves. It did not matter who they looked at. Each passenger came to the realization that they were part of a larger group but in the end the only people they could turn to for help, for guidance, was themselves.

What was the Truth, served that day?

First the Truth revealed who THE CREATOR was and unlike in the past, this in-flight perk had become available to both 1st and 3rd class. With the cabin lights dimmed, beams of light projected the Truth. In a flash all 12 passengers were enlightened. Illuminated.

God’s name was Ex-Con. For brevity his name had been shortened from Expansion and Contraction. People would comment that THE CREATOR did not know whether he was coming or going. It was legend that Ex-Con /THE CREATOR had created the Universe from his own image. It was a creation comprised of dualities. Ex-Con had been alone his entire life. Looking into a mirror one day he was inspired by what he saw. It gave him an idea. When he observed himself observing himself using two mirrors, it created an effect, that of dualities, extending into infinity. Each mirror would reflect onto the other mirror and back to the original creating infinite representations of the original.

Ex-Con with a breath of anti-matter and matter magically placed the world into inter-connected pairs. A matrix.

Yes it is true; Ex-Con’s pajamas are black and white pinstripes and plaids. One pair has polka dots and waves. However the colorful plaids are his favorite pair. Like the tapestry of life continually unfolding with intent, a kaleidoscope of design endlessly changing, each was a random design yet all were beautiful. The plaid pajamas were used to monitor mankind’s progress. The pajamas functioned as a beacon to notify THE CREATOR when mankind had unlocked the combination to his Grand Design. It would immediately vibrate and illuminate at the frequency of LOVE and a loud guttural OM could be heard across the galaxies.

Ex-Con then dealt them the devastating blow. He told them the source of his power.
Ex-Con had been known by many aliases. He was known as Brahma, Yahweh, God and many other names through the ages. Finally 21st Century Physics identified him as ENERGY.
He reminded them of the Laws of Thermodynamics … THE CREATOR can be neither created nor destroyed. THE CREATOR can only be transformed into other forms of CREATION. When mankind transforms THE CREATION into graven images there is a penalty to pay.

Ex-Con explained that we would be offered probation. Conservation was always an option given to the civilizations. It was considered community service.

Ex-Con also reminded the passengers especially those from first class that the 5th Commandment explicitly stated to …

Honor thy Father the Sun, Honor thy Mother, Gaia the Earth and that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord/ENERGY thy God/CREATOR giveth thee. To manage responsibly as stewards.

ENERGY THE CREATOR explained that our days would be shortened upon the land because we had violated the 1st Law of Thermodynamics, Conservation. We had allowed the vain use of Energy/HIS CREATION. Our penalty it was explained was this free flight, courtesy of Captain Entropy.

The Truth revealed to the passengers by ENERGY THE CREATOR was that we exist to serve each other and the Earth our Mother. Our Mother combined with the energy of the Sun our Father would together provide for all of her children’s material needs. Our Father’s energy arrived to Mother via the solar winds, not unlike the way many sperm try to penetrate the ovum.

The word Mother is derived from the word MATTER.

So we have a world born of Energy/Father/Sun uniting with Matter/Mother/Earth.
We have the dualities of Energy and Matter, Father and Mother and the Sun and the Earth. We are the offspring of all three.

Everything from the large, the macrocosm to the small, and the microcosm within the Universe are evolving. Mankind is not a ‘planet’ unto himself. Father and Mother are also evolving. Ex-Con strongly suggested it is time we the children grew up and fulfilled our role as stewards and evolved also. Ex-Con/Energy's words were direct. Each of the passengers now knowing the Truth felt inspired. Sharing and entrusting the Truth with the passengers seemed to unify them, giving them purpose and direction. THE CREATOR/ENERGY was pleased.

At this point Captain Entropy exclaimed devilishly ... "just passed Last Chance Texaco ... runnin’ on empty ... yeeeee haaaaa! Eschaton here we come ... I am propelled by a ship of fools!"

You see Captain Entropy had convinced Mankind to go on a stimulating and sensual tour of Planet Gaia showing the passengers from orbit the accomplishments of mankind. Manipulating their collective pride known as ego he was able to distract them very effectively. All the while burning up more fuel. The passengers were in collective awe. Here from space they could see the Towers of Babel and other graven images born of pride each culture had erected to themselves.

As the last drop of fuel was consumed the Spaceship began to drift. Forward. The Spaceship was designed only with forward engines. This represented time. There was no going back in this dimension. There was a promise made to all the Captains that upon arriving at Eschaton they could refuel and fly again. Captain Entropy being a Fallen Angel and having his wings clipped loved flying. Especially under the radar and this could only be done with a ship of fools. A Fallen Angel by virtue of his flying instincts did not need to attend flight school.

Slowly Gaia was being drawn into an abyss. Darkness beyond darkness. No light escaping. The Black Hole threatening to consume Spaceship Gaia and her payload.

However ENERGY/Ex-Con/THE CREATOR had issued each of the passengers a Free Will card. This card could be used only once, to experience the Heroic Age. It was the ultimate virtual reality living in the moment game of clarity. There existed no fear factor. The force was with you.

Armed with the Truth and a pair of box cutters all twelve passengers stormed the cockpit.

After storming the cockpit and once inside, the Soul Navigator became the Chosen One. He was immediately promoted to Co-Pilot 2nd Class. This had never ever happened before.
There had never ever been a Chosen One. There had been many grand efforts and theories to unify all of mankind. All Navigators had previously failed. The Chosen One was now beginning to glow. Then he spoke.

The Chosen One simply said ‘I am LOVE’.

Later in recognition of the Chosen One and his miracle of merging the 1st and 3rd Class Navigators, all of humanity would from that time forward aspire to become Co-Pilots 2nd Class. There now was only one recognized Class of Citizenry.
Everyone had evolved into 2nd Class Citizens. All citizens were equally capable of achieving and reaching LOVE/Godhead/Heaven.

Captain Entropy remained pilot because the final destination could never be altered anyway. The Chosen One / LOVE could only alter the speed and course briefly to allow for spiritual experiences and astral ejections.

Using all of the materials onboard Spaceship Gaia the passengers were able to fashion themselves 6 pair-of-chutes. As they passed by Godhead the six pairs of dualities ejected from Gaia and slowly started drifting toward the light of LOVE/Godhead. Together they started to glow, to vibrate, OMMMM. Surprisingly the soft lure of the light in the distance, now closing in all around them had easily overcome the immense gravity of the Black Hole.

The passengers were ‘free energy’ at last. The dualities had fused and become singularities and now were like pure ENERGY, their source, THE CREATOR. They had escaped the Black Hole and the prospect of forever being trapped as ‘bound matter.’

As it turns out ‘matter matters’ and gravity only seems to have an effect on matter.

The passengers had formed bonds and now revealed the 6-pointed Star of David.

LOVE, The Chosen One spoke again:

‘Six represents equilibrium, harmony and balance. It symbolizes union of polarity, the hermaphrodite being represented by the two interlaced triangles, the upward- pointing as male, fire and the heavens, and the downward pointing as female, the waters and the earth. The three dimensional aspect is known as the Merkaba.'
The Merkaba he explained would be our next vehicle with which to travel to the origin of Godhead.

Captain Entropy arrived at Eschaton empty, for the first time in the HIStory of Mankind with no payload.

The Heroic Age thus led to a reformation of energetic thought. Where HISstory fused with HERstory to be simply recognized as…


'The Story’

-Namaste-


Have you any idea what Entropy does to a closed mind?

It becomes a cold and unforgiving place.


FYI
"Mer" means Light. "Ka" means Spirit. "Ba" means Body.
Mer-Ka-Ba is the vehicle of Light mentioned in the Bible by Ezekiel.

The Cradle of Civilization

A very, very interesting historical footnote is this...

The 'Cradle of Civilization' cultures, Mesopotamia, Egypt, the Indus Valley and China all centered around great river systems.

They also all had entrenched in their belief systems a concept of creation and destruction. A cyclical pattern of creation followed by destruction and then renewal. A golden age, where everything is perfect, then through time degrades once more.

In all these cultures the destroyer is represented by a woman … who like the earth is capable of birth and nurture, destruction and renewal. The cultures were represented by in order, Tiamat, Sekmet, Shiva and YIN.
It is important we realize without a doubt that the perfect world,the Garden of Eden, the Golden Age, they all eventually suffer from gradual decay and chaos. This process of decay, of our civilizations, is none other than ENTROPY a Law of Physics.

These Cradle civilizations had reverence for the earth and the forces of nature; they were essentially pagan in nature. (Pagan is simply defined as not being baptized)

All of their cultures worshipped a SUN God.

Let me introduce the concept Energy = God.

Can we deny, the SUN is the source of ALL life here on Earth, Mother Earth, Gaia? Visualize the solar winds trying to penetrate our atmosphere...think sperm and egg.

THE TURNING POINT... This was the turning point in the ‘His’ Story of Mankind and what I contend is THE SOURCE of our 21st Century problems and misunderstandings.

In ancient Persian (Iran) religion and books of Zoroastrianism, Angra Mainyu is the god of darkness, the eternal destroyer of good, personification and creator of evil, bringer of death and disease. He is also known as Ahriman, and his name means "fiendish spirit".

It was at this point in our history, a hijacking occurred. We departed from a female representation of the destroyer and adopted a male personification. We see the introduction of Spenta Mainyu ("holy spirit") who is the god of life and the personification of the good and the light. He is the twin brother of Angra Mainyu (Ahriman), the god of darkness, with whom he fights an eternal battle.
This of course is again representative of ENTROPY. Not unlike the Yin and Yang.

All of the Cradle Civilizations also embraced a Duality that existed under the umbrella of an all-embracing creator. I.e. a singularity, Brahma, Tau,

Think for a moment … Prior to the Big Bang existed a singularity, it then became two singularities representing two equally intrinsic halves of a duality.

The pattern is repeated by the two singularities merging to create another singularity. It fissions by giving half of it’s DNA to fuse with another.

1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3…has a nice beat? Doesn’t it?

If we add the component of time … we get the timing that is base for all music 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4…the primordial dance. It also forms a tetrahedron within which we can place a Carbon Atom within which depending on how you rotate the 3D representation, you can see the Aumkara, Swastika, Alpha and Omega…more is explained here…

THIS IS A MUST READ SITE:
http://www.sol.com.au/kor/11_02.htm

Back to THE conspiracy…

The Trinity of Conflict as I like to call them, Judaism, Christianity and Islam all descended from Abraham, some say Moses, maybe Ahriman … any historians out there? There is much agreement amongst scholars that Judaism borrowed heavily from Zoroastrianism, Gnosticism, Eastern theology and other pagan festivals.

What we can see from the evolution of the most dysfunctional Semitic family/tribe in the history of mankind was a deliberate expropriation of beliefs with a twist.
Modern Western Theology attempted to put the final stake through the heart of Gaia with the introduction of The Holy Trinity.

At the root of the introduction of the Holy Trinity was the attempt to:

1) Remove dualities as the base of understanding, until Christianity and the introduction of the Trinity most of the folklore, scripture and records indicate dualities.
2) Place man in a position where he could not feed himself spiritually, remove spiritual sustainability under the premise of salvation.
3) This was achieved by removing man’s connection to the earth.
4) We became greater than that which feeds us … the SUN of God and Gaia, our Father and Mother... think the 5th Commandment…
Honor thy father (the SUN of God/Man) and thy mother (Mother Nature/Gaia): that thy days may be long upon the land which ENERGY thy God giveth thee.(Entropy)
It is almost scary how well it fits.
5) A further disconnect from the earth will be necessary so we may continue with the organic carnage, of course more spiritual disconnect will be necessary too. Father will punish us because we have harmed Mother.
7) Unite not only the concept of a Messiah but also the concept of evil, a Satan/Lucifer/etc. The concept of evil became central to all three siblings. The Cradle Civilizations each had their own female representation of destruction but it was not personified as evil, only as a necessary evolvement of the earth and the life upon her.

Remember though Satan, is none other than ENTROPY. This characterization the west has chosen to identify as evil is simply a Law of Physics.

The Father, The Son and the Holy Spirit were an attempt to remove the female sacred from the equation.
A patriarchal Priesthood replaced a matriarchal tree hugging culture.
Through spiritual dismemberment we have no problem shitting where we sleep.

In conclusion a balance that existed between the SUN (father), the Earth, Gaia (mother nature) and their offspring, us (think U.S.) is in disharmony.

The Energy Thieves have been very effective at killing the family unit.

-Namaste-

Let us manifest the next ‘virus’ together, the truth.

DUALITY and ENTROPY



DUALITY


Search ‘numerology’ ‘2’ on the World Wide Web and you receive 381,000 responses in .24 seconds!

This is just one response…

bold;">2 Represents Duality. Alteration; diversity; conflict; dependence. Two is a static condition. It is rooted, seen as balance (two sides); stability; reflection. Two are the opposite poles. Represents the dual nature of the human being. It is desire, since all that is manifest in duality is in pairs of opposites. As One represents a point, two represents a length. The Binary is the first number to recede from Unity, it also symbolizes sin which deviates from the first good and denotes the transitory and the corruptible. Two represents two-fold strength--that is symbolized by two of anything, usually in history, by animals in pairs.
Cultural References
In Alchemy, two are the opposites, sun and moon. King and Queen. Sulpher and quicksilver, at first antagonistic but finally resolved and united in the androgyne.
Buddhist: see two as the duality of samsara; male and female. Two is theory and practice; wisdom and method. It is blind and the lame united to see the way and to walk it.
Chinese, two is Yin , feminine; terrestrial; inauspicious.
Christian: Christ with two natures as God and human.
Hebrew: Two is The life-force. In Qabalism wisdom and self-consciousness.
Hindu: Two is duality, the shakta-shakti.
Islamic: Two Spirit.
Platonic: Plato says two is a digit without meaning as it implies relationship, which introduces the third factor.
Pythagorean: Two is The Duad, the divided terrestrial being.
Taoist says two is representative of The K'ua, the Two. Determinants, the yin-yang. Two is a weak yin number as it as no center.

Search ‘duality’ on the World Wide Web and you receive 1,870,000 responses in .04 seconds! This in itself represents a connected-ness, an ever growing expotential number of dualities that exist on an immense scale.

I had originally called this article the ‘The Two Opposing Forces’. It then evolved into ‘The Theory of The Two Opposing Forces of Attraction’. That was how I had originally viewed the relationships of apparent opposites. Then as I continued to do my research and study I realized that what I was attempting to understand intuitively was the much discussed ‘duality’. But in essence that is what duality implies, a polarization and attraction happening simultaneously. Two distinct energetic forces, dancing, buoyed, balanced by each other.

The duality of the polarities North and South, positive and negative, the electromagnetic energies, this energy is always in flux creating a 3D reality.

The ultimate expression of duality in a microcosm is matter and antimatter. Existing in arenas of continuous creation and annihilation, these dynamic duos represent perhaps the very first duality that existed after the big bang. I will discuss this most important ‘duality’ in a future article, The Trinity and Einstein Unified.
The male/female duality would probably be the most common example used in metaphor, art, allegory, essentially all expression. As an example anyone who has been deeply involved in a relationship comes to the conclusion that they can neither live with nor without their spouse, partner or soul mate.
I also believe the ‘human being’ is an expression of a duality. Each of us struggles personnally with each aspect of our dualities. The human that is comprised of matter existing in a material world subject to the boundaries of flesh and the being which is drawn to the spirit, boundaries unknown.

‘Not only are we human beings having spiritual experiences but we are also spiritual beings having human experiences’.

Yin and Yang evolved from a belief of mutually dependant opposites that cannot live without the other.
The duality of religion and science, twins borne in the mind of man also exists.

Most Common examples of duality

Please note each has an opposite yet they should not be viewed as good or bad, just opposites that exist so life can evolve…

Love, good, positive, cause, alpha, light-giving, expanding, strong, Guardian Angels, Vishnu, Yang, heaven, fire, peace, serenity, kinetic energy, sustainability, available energy, life, matter, omkara

vs.

Fear, evil, negative, effect, omega, dark, contracting, weak, Lucifer or Satan, Shiva, Yin, hell, water, confusion, turmoil, potential energy, consumerism, unavailable energy, death, anti-matter, svastika

Please note: Duality is the astrological term meaning that six signs are considered
to be masculine and six are feminine. It does not mean that masculine
signs are powerful or that feminine signs are weak. It means a feminine
signs is receptive, magnetic and self-contained and a masculine sign is
more direct, energetic, and outer-directed.


Yin Yang

One of the best examples and most recognizable symbols of duality are the YIN and YANG. Ancient Chinese scholars believed there to be two complimentary and contradictory forces in the Universe. The yin yang symbol embodies the duality of the Universe. YIN represents the femaleness, destruction, negative, darkness, the moon, material forms, softness, moisture, nighttime, even numbers and docile aspects of things. YANG represents the maleness, creation, positive, brightness, the sun, Heaven, hardness, dryness, daytime. Odd numbers and dominant aspects. Each of these opposites is responsible for producing the other. The Yin Yang symbol represents the idealized balance of the forces, equilibrium in the universe.
The yin and yang forces are believed to be cyclical, moving and evolving into each other.

However even though a duality exists in yin yang the essentials of the yin-yang philosophy dictate that the universe is run by a single principal, the Tao, or Great Ultimate. This principle is then divided into the two opposite principles, which oppose one another in their actions, yin and yang. The philosophy further states all opposites one perceives in the universe can be reduced to one of the two opposing forces. This is also an obvious precursor to the Christian introduction of the Trinity. Which also will be discussed in a future article.

The Yin and Yang symbol is the product of ancient astrological observation. Click on link to see how this symbol was created through the measurement of light emanating from the 'Sun of God'.

http://www.chinesefortunecalendar.com/yinyang.htm


The dualities of the yin yang represents the amount of light that is falling to the earth essentially available to us as an ‘energy’ resource. It represents light and darkness which give rise to creation and destruction. This fact should not be ignored but used for our benefit. What the solstices give us is further proof, connecting man, his existence, acknowledging his survival is linked to a cyclical Mother Nature and we learn that we are not independent, apart, separate but dependent upon our environment. It can also be observed and thus stated that the Earth’s well-being, her health is also dependent upon man and his utilization of his dominion.

The Vernel and Autumnal Equinoxes being opposite representations of time also represent another duality. Twice a year, day and night become equal in length.

Duality is a most common theme appearing continuously throughout all religions, beliefs, and myths and science. Appearing throughout scripture, folklore and story telling. However not only is the same metaphorical battle the undercurrent of all these stories and scripture but it also manifests itself energetically in science as laws of physics.

Matter and Anti-matter is an obvious pair, a duality.

Another not so obvious pair is Entropy and it’s opposite Conservation.

ENTROPY

Physicists theorize that the universal BIG BANG was the result of an immense density of mass incredibly concentrated beyond belief, a singularity of unity that essentially came apart with a tremendous release of energy resulting in two distinct entities matter and anti-matter. There was a third entity formed as a result of the matter and anti-matter duality reaction. In this battle of apparent ‘opposites’, our universe and everything material was borne of matter.

The BIG BANG was the birth of duality and it’s offspring, our Universe. If this is the nature of our creation, our beginning, is it not possible that the energetic forces present at the time of creation, still play a part in the development or evolution of the universe? The two opposing forces represent the forces of creation that resides, permeates all of matter and energy here in this material 3rd dimension and throughout the entire universe.

So one of the two forces of duality here in the third dimension is a tendency that exists where the total energy is always progressing toward maximum entropy and the force in opposition is the ability to minimize entropy by minimizing the energy flow within the closed system. This I suggest can be done with the participation of mankind…this I view simply as conscious free will, choices given to us as stewards
Essentially mankind by fully understanding, acknowledging and respecting the first law of conservation can use it to oppose the second law of penalty!

"Through the dynamics of yin and yang, the female and male cosmic principles, the Tao creates all phenomena. Whereas the Tao is perfectly harmonious, the cosmos is in a state of constant disequilibrium.
-Spirituality By The Numbers, Georg Feuerstein, p. 14.

This statement implies equilibrium may never be attained, however harmony can still exist…a thought to consider also.

These two opposing forces appear throughout the entire macro and micro Universe. Entropy has even been detected in the ‘event horizon’, which is associated with Black Holes.

Interestingly entropy is difficult to detect with quantum theory. The reason for this will be discussed later using the axiom ‘Time’s Arrow’.

There is a lesser known 3rd law of thermodynamics that explains why it is so hard to cool something to absolute zero (-273.15).

The 3rd Law states that all processes cease as temperature approaches absolute 0. As temperature goes to absolute 0, the entropy of a system approaches a constant.

This law gave birth to an idea, a flirtation with reality known as cryonic
suspension. Freezing life to be revived in the future once the technology is developed to affect the thaw. It is a perfect metaphor for how crazy life has become. We are willing to spend vast quantities of energy to investigate the possibility that we may be able to suspend ‘time’. The profound irony lies in the fact that the technology needed to effect such a change may never be achieved because there are other technologies concurrently seeking to destroy mankind. The ‘rise of the machines’ is upon us. The conclusion one arrives at is that there may never be a future due to the fact that we pursue so many flirtations of intellect that really serve no purpose in aiding the longevity and sustainability of our civilizations and our host planet.

What if we look at all ‘laws of energy’, the current laws of physics, does there exist in each law a duality?

E = mc2

Energy is equal to matter. On a sub-atomic level there is battle of annihilation and creation manifesting itself apparently out of nothing. Any thinking curious person would observe and ask…does duality permeate everything in the Universe.

First Law of Thermodynamics

Energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can only be transformed from one form to another. The total energy is constant within any closed system.

Second Law of Thermodynamics

Both laws can be stated as the natural processes of hot moving toward cold or high concentrations dispersing and becoming more random always takes place in such a direction as to cause an increase in the entropy (randomness) of the universe.

The first and second laws comprise a duality. Consumption vs. Conservation. All chemical reactions, indeed just about all of the living world, are governed by two basic laws of energy or thermodynamics.

Newton's First Law of Motion

A body (mass) in a state of rest tends to remain at rest, and a body in motion tends to continue to move at constant speed in a straight line unless acted upon by some external force.

Kinetic energy and Potential energy comprise a duality.

Newton's Second Law of Motion

An unbalanced force on a body tends to produce an acceleration in the direction of the force, and that the acceleration is directly proportional to the force and inversely proportional to the mass of the body.

Newton's Third Law of Motion

For every acting force, there is an equal and opposite reacting force.

Newton’s 2nd and 3rd Laws essentially implies the same thing and states there is a force and an equal reacting force, opposites or another expressed duality.

Quantum Theory … text to follow

In conclusion The Unified Field Theory is an attempt to unite the duality of Relativity and Quantum Theory. String Theory may prove to hold the key to this final Theory of Everything. It is in this realm of theoritical physics that science and religion shall be reconciled.
