Perhaps the
most important contribution of the holistic scientific approach is that it
leads to a completely new understanding of the nature of space and time, which
quite remarkably is directly related to the different number types (when
likewise understood in a holistic mathematical fashion).
For example
we have rational numbers. Therefore in holistic terms we likewise have rational
space and time.
So quite
simply, phenomena (both physical and psychological) exist in rational space and
time (when understood in a corresponding rational manner).
In fact the
conventional understanding of space and time (3 space dimensions and 1 time dimension) represents
just one unique distinct version of the rational nature of space and time where
qualitative (holistic) notions are reduced in a quantitative (analytic) manner.
Thus in
conventional science, space and time are solely investigated in a quantitative
manner as having a similar common validity with respect to the phenomenal data
investigated.
However
directly associated with the holistic approach is the realisation that every phenomenon
exists uniquely in a distinctive framework of space and time.
So just as
an unlimited number of quantitative measurements can be made with respect to
the same common dimensional configurations (of space and time) in analytic
terms, equally each measurement is associated with a unique qualitative
dimension in corresponding holistic
terms.
And just as
quantitative numbers can be both positive and negative in real and imaginary
terms, equally with respect to the holistic experience of space and time (in a complementary
physical and psychological manner) we have positive and negative notions of
space and time in real and imaginary terms.
And far
from these representing abstract possibilities without corresponding
experiential meaning, these new ideas of space and time correspond precisely with
intuitive notions when understood in the appropriate holistic manner.
So the
great barrier at present to recognising this fundamental point is that
scientific interpretation - at least in formal terms - is conducted in a merely
analytic fashion, which thereby blocks out development of the refined
intuitive understanding on which true holistic appreciation of space and time
depends.
As we know
in physical terms there is a wide possible spectrum of energy, of which natural
light comprises one small band.
Equally in
psychological terms, there is a wide possible spectrum of energy of which the
common sense intuition associated with conventional scientific interpretation
comprises just one small band.
However,
whereas these alternative bands of physical energy (besides natural light) are
now widely recognised and utilised, unfortunately from a psychological
perspective, the alternative bands of psychological energy are not at all yet accepted. So the scientific profession is still tied, in its attempted formal
interpretation of physical reality, to just one limited band (which excludes
the varied forms of holistic type appreciation entirely).
Likewise with
respect to number types, we can distinguish - what I refer to as the original
numbers - 0 and 1, the prime and natural numbers, the integers and the
rational numbers.
Likewise in
qualitative holistic terms we can distinguish - corresponding directly to these
number types - original, prime, natural, integral and rational notions of space
and time respectively.
Then
equally just as - besides the rational - we have irrational numbers (both
algebraic and transcendental) equally we have corresponding holistic notions
relating to irrational space and time (algebraic and transcendental).
Finally
corresponding to transfinite numbers (in analytic terms) we have corresponding
holistic transfinite notions relating to the appropriate holistic appreciation
of space and time.
And what is
vital to appreciate is that all these possible notions of space and time -
rightly understood - constitute an intrinsic aspect of reality (physical and
psychological) which can be directly experienced in an intuitively accessible
manner (given the appropriate holistic psychological development).
As I would
see it there is a great deal of misleading material being written - even by the
most respected physicists - regarding so called multiverses and parallel worlds
that supposedly remain inaccessible to humans. However this more accurately
simply reflects the reduced nature of analytic interpretation that is employed.
For example,
because the conventional paradigm is a real i.e. conscious based approach,
notions of imaginary time and space, which directly relate to the holistic
unconscious, cannot thereby be appreciated as an integral component of normal
everyday experience.
So
“imaginary worlds” are artificially split off in such understanding from
corresponding “real worlds”. However when holistic is properly integrated with
corresponding analytic appreciation, the imaginary is naturally seen as
penetrating real reality at all levels.
So from
this perspective, experience (in physical and psychological terms) is necessarily
of complex phenomena (related in real and imaginary space and time).
And just as
the real represent a special case with respect to the complex numbers (where the
imaginary part is ignored), likewise the conventional scientific paradigm
represents a special case with respect to a comprehensive complex paradigm
(where the holistic aspect of interpretation is formally ignored).
In fact the
very notion of the universe as employed by the scientific community is quite
inadequate for there is not in truth one universe “out there” to be
investigated.
Rather
because the whole is reflected in each part and the collection of parts in turn
reflected in the whole, what we have is a dynamic two-way evolving organism whereby
the whole universe is thereby uniquely contained in each part (from
this perspective thus constituting multiple unique universes). Equally however, the
collection of these parts is likewise contained in the overall whole (from this complementary perspective thus constituting one common universe).
So in
dynamic interactive terms, what we refer to as the universe, entails the two-way interaction of the one with the many and the many with the one in both an
analytic (quantitative) and holistic (qualitative) manner.
Thus the
universe - by definition - is qualitatively contained of many multiverses, with
the many multiverses in turn quantitatively contained in one universe.
And in
truth the universe cannot be properly conceived as some giant objective
mechanism in quantitative terms. Rather the universe is a living organism, reflecting again at every level, the two-way interaction of both quantitative and
qualitative aspects in analytic and holistic terms.
