Abstract

Life starts on Earth in watery regions where prebiotic droplets form, that evolve into single, then multicellular organisms and finally hominids. To gain the special experience offered by Earth existence entities from the Omniverse Hierarchy incarnate into hominid bodies, to give rise to modern day humanity. As a result of arising in this way Humanity is cut off from the Omniverse Hierarchy and, like the prodigal son, has to find its own way forward. In order to do this Humanity seeks to understand the workings of the Universe and the Earth situation in which it finds itself. In doing this it is developing the ability to contribute a new, objective understanding of how and why the Omniverse has developed and works, whereby Kosmos/God develops a new level of consciousness of itself. When we look around us we see the workings of the Kosmos on Earth in the forms, behaviour and functions of substances and organisms. In this book it is proposed that forms arise out the stresses that substances and organisms create in the underlying basic energy activity, as they strive to express their natures. Experimental results drawn from electrical discharge photography, crystallisation, liquid flows and capillary dynamolysis are presented to show how stress fields create the shapes that we see in the natural world.

Abstract

L’intérêt de la critique de la pensée d’un grand philosophe contemporain – Badiou – à travers sa propre critique d’un autre grand philosophe – Heidegger – est essentiellement pédagogique. Les erreurs et les contresens, relevés, montrés, éclairés, enseignent en remettant tout en perspective. Badiou a cette qualité de s’exprimer clairement, mettant ainsi au jour, tout aussi clairement, les singularités de sa pensée. Mais cette expression si claire et assurée d’elle-même peut tromper : elle donne l’illusion de l’incontestable vérité. D’où l’urgence de réagir…
