4. On Prena --the
Preexistent State of Nature
The object of
TRUTON is to study Nature, from
its inception, within the general
context of its existence. In
TRUTON, the existence and the
properties of Nature's objects are
independent of our own existence.
Arguments of how we see or
perceive the objects of Nature
have no place in TRUTON. Imaginary
objects or representations that
can be produced entirely by our
given Brain be they dreams,
illusions, beliefs, or various
perceptions are all outside of the
realm of the TRUTON studies.
In TRUTON, all the
objects describing various aspects
of Nature are residing, as stated,
outside of our own existence and
are called non-imaginary
objects. Our own sense
perception existence or believes
can never ever be used in any of
our arguments or illustrations
describing Nature. In TRUTON, the
only thing that we have at our
disposal is our cultivated
Common Sense and, as in
Mathematics, our cultivated
Rational Deductive Reasoning.
Before we begin
with our study of Nature, we, of
course, need to define it!
Questions like,
What
is Nature?, What is
its primeval format?,
Does Nature has an
origin and, if so,
what that origin could
be? or Is there a
primeval agent that
created and developed
Nature?, or Is there a
direction or an end
for Nature's
development?
were some of the questions that
have consumed humanity from
antiquity to present.
Out of that mental
turmoil, Religion was born
--that massive speculative
undertaking of the human mind that
evolved to incorporate not only a
system of beliefs but also to be
associated with specific cultural,
moral and ethic systems vested in
a specific lifestyle that
purportedly was reflective of the
universal laws governing Nature
and the Cosmos.
A staggering
number of such self-proclaimed
religious systems evolved. Some
scholars now estimate to exist
some 4200 organized religions in
the world. Arts associated with
Religion (be they in music,
sculpture, painting, architecture,
pottery, or poetry and
literature), and referred as sacred
arts, produced a dazzling
array of magnificent masterworks
unparalleled in their beauty,
splendor, and their vast variety.
Their indelible addition to the
human cultural heritage is truly
spectacular and beyond dispute.
What has been disputed has been
the various religious dogmas that
they were subjugated to carry or
reflect.
The development of
science continuously has been in a
collision course with their
respective religious dogmas. That
collision course chiseled and
continue to chisel the development
of our ever evolving civilization
and understanding of the natural
physical laws governing Nature and
our place in it.
Cosmology,
as a science and a branch of Astronomy
--the oldest science of Nature,
had the task to entertain those
very issues that gave birth to
Religion. A number of cosmological
models, throughout several
centuries, emerged --all based
however on "scientific"
speculations that nevertheless
were speculations that were
interpreted to support some
scientific physical observations.
The latest
such speculative cosmological
model that represents the current
prevailing cosmological view is
vested in the so-called Big-Bang
cosmological model that considers
that a point of infinite
mass, density and temperature
--willy-nilly-- exploded somewhere
somehow generating the perceived
expansion of the Universe we know.
This newly almost universally
embraced cosmological model since
1970s was first proposed in 1927
by the Belgian priest turned
scientist Georges Lemaitre. His
speculative cosmological views
were cemented two years letter, in
1929, with the discovery of Edwin
Hubble that the galaxies and
quasars around us appear to be
redshifted as if they were running
away from each other and
interpreted as the observational
proof that the cosmic space
itself, and thus that the Universe
itself, expands.
To account how
from a homogeneous point-mass, a
non-homogeneous Universe could
emerge, additional speculations
were added over the years making
that path of speculations over
speculations no different than the
speculative path of Religion. Of
course, no mention was made
whether or not the presumed
Big-Bang explosion was an
out-of-the-blue singular isolated
event leading to the creation of
our Universe OR whether, in fact,
that Big-Bang is part of a
"natural" system of such
explosions leading up to the
creations of other universes
similar to ours.

NOT
OVERPASS
.
In TRUTON, as outlined in a previous page, we
follow to the letter the method
employed by Mathematics in
discovering new things. Our start
in TRUTON is identical to the one
employed in Mathematics. A System
of Axioms found, say, in Geometry
is being replaced in TRUTON with the most
general simplest primeval
physical system that our
cultivated Mind can conceive to
exist. Out of that given
most general simplest primeval
foundation, using our rational
deductive reasoning, and nothing
else, we shall attempt to
reconstruct the birth and the
development of Nature --an entity
yet to be defined. The existence
of our Universe should emerge as
one of the many universes that are
populating Nature.
All formations and
phenomena in TRUTON are
straightforward consequences
derived from our rational
deductive reasoning and nothing
else. No willy-nilly events, such
as the speculated Big-Bang event,
will ever be part of TRUTON. The
creation of events and phenomena
in TRUTON will have no mystical
connotations of any sort as they
will be the result of logical
inferences identical to how
results and discoveries are
achieved in Mathematics. In a
nutshell, this is the blueprint of
TRUTON that we shall attempt to
follow.
We call Prena (pN)
the givenpreexistent
state of Nature that must
represent the
most general simplest physical
system
that our cultivated Mind can
conceive to exist.
.
We
begin with our identification of Prena by seeking to
identify the primeval given
ingredients that should exist in
Prena. Because they are given
ingredients, their origin cannot
be questioned in a meaningful
manner similar as we can cannot
question, in a meaningful way, the
primeval elements employed in
Mathematics.
In TRUTON,
fostering the stated method of
Mathematics and adding to it our
cultivated Common Sense, we define
now a given primeval
entity as an entity whose
origin cannot be questioned in a
meaningful way and which, in
addition, is satisfying these
three (3) basic conditions:
i)
its state of
existence is the
simplest conceivable
state and hence its
state cannot be
reduced into a more
simpler state --the
bottom-line
requirement; ii)
its state of existence
cannot be derived from
anything else --the
inception
requirement;
and, iii) its state
of existence is unique
--the uniqueness
requirement.
Armed with that understanding, let
us begin looking for TRUTON's given
primeval ingredients.
1. On the Given
Primeval Ingredients (Prings)
We begin
with this bottom-line
primeval inquiry by
asking this simple, but
rather fundamental
question:
In
physical terms, what
is the absolute
simplest structure
that a domain or a
volume can have?
To this, one may
respond with the trivial answer
that the simplest physical
structure is no structure at all,
i.e., that the domain be physically
unstructured. The absolute
vacuum (AVA) therefore is
the most trivial candidate.
But now, let's say
that someone else will intervene
in that discussion, stating that
we may conceive as an equally
good answer that of "filling
up" the respective volume with a material
continuum that has in fact a given
finite, constant, non-zero,
material density whose value can
only be increased through
compression, but it can never be
decreased. We call that unilateral
elastic continuum substance that
can only be compressed, but not
decompressed, the xenobase
(XB) and add, that it has
the lowest non-zero material
density that could exist.
That xenobase (XB) substance, as
defined, satisfies all three
conditions of a given entity. Indeed,
the first two conditions are
straightforward and, for the proof
of its uniqueness characteristic,
see it below:
Proof
of the Uniqueness
of the Xenobase
(XB) state:
To
prove the uniqueness
of the xenobase
(XB), we resort at
the classical method
employed in
Mathematics called
in Latin "Reductio
ad Absurdum"
('Reduction to the
Absurd' or 'Proof by
Contradiction')
where we assume that
the contrary is true
and using deductive
reasoning, we reach
an absurdity.
We
begin by assuming
that XB is not
unique i.e.,
that there are,
say, two
independent
XB-blocks, XB1
and XB2,
whose respective
densities d1
and d2 ,
are different say
d1<d2.
As we begin
squishing the XB1-block
to increase its
density d1
in an attempt to
reach the value of
d2 ,
the XB1-block
transforms into a
xenofluid
(XF)
block loosing
therefore its
XB-state. The
uniqueness of the
XB-state is firmly
established as
one, and only one,
lowest material
density can be
associated with
the XB-state.
QED.
[By the
way, we have called
that rather strange
continuum that only
can be compressed but
not decompressed the xenobase
(XB), noting now
that "xeno" in
Greek means "strange."
The "xeno"
prefix will be
associated with other
"strange" primary
entities.]
Combining those
two answers with respect to the
simplest structure a physical
domain can have, we arrive at the
most general simplest
physical structure of a domain
that is a xenobase mass with holes
of absolute
vacuum (AVA) in it, called holeons
(HOLs), denoted also with Øs,
as in a sponge or a Swiss-cheese
block (figure at left). We call an
object or block with that
structure the --baseholon (bHL)
which represents indeed the most general
simplest physical structure that
could exist at the base level
(BALE) state of existence.
Thus,
a baseholon
(bHL)is
a xenobase (XB) mass
with absolute
vacuum (AVA) holes
in it. That bHL, by
being the simplest
most general structure
of a mass, is the
starting material
"fabric" of TRUTON.
The two
ingredients, the xenobase (XB) and absolute vacuum
(AVA),
are satisfying all three
conditions as of being given primeval entities
and, as such, they are said to
represent the primeval given ingredients. No
other base
level (BALE) ingredient our
cultivated Mind could conceive
and, as such, baseholons (bHLs) are the most general
simplest entities to be found at
the BALE state of
existence.
Those two primeval
BALE ingredients, XB and AVA, can coexist and
be associated side by side as they
preserve their respective
identities. And that is because
there is no physical process that
can convert one into another. As
such, their association, called
the ultimate primeval
association (upa),
represents the most general
simplest structure that a domain
or volume can have. We mark that
pivotal recognition, transcending
from Mind into the study
of Nature, through
The
First
Universal
Transcendental
Principle Of TRUTON
(1st UTPOT): On
the Ultimate
Primeval Association
(UPA)
The
xenobase (XB) and the absolute vacuum (AVA) are the ultimate given entities that can be conceived to exist in Prena. They represent the ultimate given constituents whose association form the ultimate primeval asociation (upa).
Definitions: .1. We call
prematter (pM) the
substance made of upa, i.e.,
the admixture of the xenobase (XB) and the absolute
vacuum
(AVA)
and write this symbolically as
follows: pM={XB, AVA}. In there, the xenobase (XB) is the material
component of prematter while the absolute vacuum
(AVA)
is its non-material
component. .2. We call
premass (pM) a block (or
body) of prematter that contains in
it its material XB-component.
With
the introduction of prematter (pM) and of the baseholons (bHLs), the picture of Prena begins to emerge:
bHL and XB blocks surrounded
by the limitless void that is the
absolute
vacuum (AVA).
Is that the most general picture of Prena that we could
conceive to exist? Well, the answer is NO
because up to this point, we have
considered Prena to be in a static
state. For a most general
scenario, we need to introduce a given preexisting
primeval motion for its baseholons (bHLs). And the simplest
motion that can be conceived to
exist is the scattered randomlinear translatory (LITRA)
motion of constant speed.
The static state of rest is the
particular case of LITRA when that
constant is null.
And that simple,
but rather fundamental,
recognition that the stationary
state of rest, is in fact a
particular case of a linear
translatory (LITRA)motion of
constant speed was perhaps first
recognized by Isaac Newton
who, in his seminal Principia,
placed as his First Law Of
Motion (FLOM) this
proposition:
"Every
body continues in
its state of rest,
or
of uniform motion
in a straight
line, unless it is
compelled to
change that state
by forces
impressed upon
it." [underline supplied].
With
this, we now recognize
that the randomLITRA, by
being the simplest
most general form of
motion, is going to be
TRUTON's starting givenform
of motion for its
primal objects.
In TRUTON, the primalmotion (primot) is being
placed in Prena, as a given fundamental primeval
entity and, as such, we can talk
thus about the givenprimeval
dynamics (pridyn) in Prena. With that global
vista of Prena, we note that
Kant's Motto, placed at the top of
our pages, needs to be amended in
TRUTON to incorporate motion alongside matter, for the primal
foundational given constituents:
"Give
me the simplest form
of matter
and motion
(mamo),
and I will build,
out of them, the
world of Nature."
2. The
Primeval Dynamics (PriDyn) Of
Prena
As the Generator of Primal
Evolution
From the
introduced primeval dynamics of
Prena (pridyn), we recognize
that Prena's primeval blocks
(of XB and bHL), by executing randomLITRA motions, will
disturb Prena's "tranquillity"
because some of those moving
blocks will inevitably collide one
into another. The simple fact that
the given primeval dynamics
(pridyn) that exists in Prena can disturb its
stability is a most remarkable
recognition indeed, since evolution
can occur only when stability is
being broken or destroyed. No
evolutionary act can occur without
a disturbance of some sort. We
mark that rather fundamental
recognition, transcending from
Mind into Nature,on
evolution through
.
The
Second
Universal
Transcendental
Principle Of TRUTON (2nd UTPOT): The Universal
Principle of Evolution
(UPE)
,
Evolution
can occur only when
and where stability is
being disturbed and
broken OR
where stability does
not exist at all.
If the disturbance
is required for evolution to
occur, then an agent must exist that
would create the disturbance. What
that agent could be? --is another
part of the puzzle that needs now
to be elucidated.
From the primeval
dynamics (pridyn) of Prena, we can "see" not
only the origin of the primeval
evolution, but also the
agent that was able to create it:
it is the Collision that
must exist due to the givenrandomness
of LITRA. That monumental
finding of the role of Collision as being the creator of the primeval
evolution makes Collision as the primevalinitiator and agent of creation
(PIAC). We mark that truly
monumental finding, transcending
from Mind into Nature, on
the role of the Collision through
The
Third
Universal
Transcendental
Principle Of TRUTON
(3rd UTPOT): The Primeval
Initiator and Agent
of Creation (PIAC) The
Underlying Common
Engine of Creation
(UCEC)
Collision
is the
primeval initiator
and agent of
creation in Prena and the
underlying common
engine of creation
in Nature.
.Remark: For
those seeking comfort
in the existence of a
"Creator
of the Universe"
(embodied in the
elusive,
indefinable,
omnipresent,
multifaceted God)
and
interested in
deciphering the Creator's
"modus operandi," then
in TRUTON, the
Collision plays that
role of the "Creator."
In TRUTON,
all primeval "tools"
of creation are
derived from
Collision.
The creation
of our Universe, from
the many existing
universes is, as we
shall see, a direct
product of the Collision. The
evolution and the
formation of new
qualitatively
objects cannot exist
without the existence
of the Collision.
[It
is perhaps of
interest to
note that it
was Immanuel Kant in his Cosmolgy("Universal Natural History and Theory Of Heavens,"
Part II,
Chapters 1, 8)
who first
advocated,
trough his
cosmological
doctrine, of a
mechanical
origin of
the Universe.
One such
physical Collision,
out of the
many to be
found in Prena, represents indeed that physical origin of our
existing
Universe as
contemplated
by Kant with
so much
conviction and
zeal.
With respect to the primeval initial dispersion
setup of
Nature, Kant
made these
stunning
introductory
remarks in the
Preface
of his noted Cosmology book that resemble, in a way, the initial dispersion
setup of
TRUTON's
cosmology:
"Now I will confidently [...] assume the matter of the
whole world to
be universally
dispersed and
I make
complete chaos
of it. I see
matter form in
accordance
with the
established
laws...
Without the
assistance of
any arbitrary
inventions, I
enjoy the
pleasure of
seeing the
creation of a
well-ordered
whole by
reason of
established
laws of motion
which looks so
much like the
system of the
world we have
before our
eyes that I
cannot help
but regard it
as the same.
This
unexpected
development of
the order of
Nature on a
large scale
initially
seems
suspicious to
me because it
bases such a
composite
rightness on
such a poor
and simple
foundation."]
I.
Kant
.
The
Collision,
as the
primeval
initiator of
Creation,
implies that
it is also the
ultimate
engine of all
creations in
Nature. As
such, we say
that Collision
is also the underlying
(or
ultimate)
common engine
of allCreation
(UCEC).
.
Now
that we have identified the Collision as the ultimate
primal initiator and agent of
creation (PIAC), it is clear
that the study of the primeval
collisions of Prena's XB-blocks
will lead to the very beginning
of Creation.
The study of xenobase (XB) is therefore
essential in discovering the
results generated by the Collision. The properties
of the xenobase
(XB)
substance are of paramount
importance for that study to take
place. So far, we have introduced
XB as being a
continuum of the lowest material
density that can be readily
compressed, but impossible to
decompressed.
The
introduced primal givenxenobase (XB), is now being
refined and be called the virgin
xenobase (vXB).
xenorigid
Upon compression, that virgin xenobase
(vXB)
transforms into a qualitatively
new substance called xenofluid
(XF) whose density is
function with the level of
compression: the greater the
compression, the greater the
density of XF is. At a maximum
finite compressional level, the xenofluid (XF) will transform
into a qualitatively new substance
called xenorigid (XR).
Now, if left
unconstrained, that xenofluid (XF) mass, by not
having a mechanism of keeping its
compressional state, will
decompress into a tensioned
xenobase (tXB) mass. The tension
in that created xenobase (XB) mass is due to
the inertia of
decompression (inerdec).
Because of that IOD, the tXB, unlike the vXB, has acquired a base
resistance to
compression (BAREC).
BAREC, as such, is the
bottom or the base resistance
to compression (RECO)
that was acquired by the
xenofluid's interdec. The necessity of
BAREC's existence is
further cemented in the next page.
The compressional force
(comforce), once infused,
creating the xenofluid (XF), transforms
itself into the equal and
reverseforce of
decompression (fordec). And
that equality in magnitude
is because fordec is noting else,
but the flip side
reincarnation of comforce. We mark that
rather subtle, but profound
recognition into
The
ThirdFoundational
Universal
Recognition Of
Nature
(3rdFURON): The
Force of
Decompression
(Fordec) Principle
All compressed
inanimate states
are endowed with
an underneath
balancing force of
decompression.
Remarks: 1.The infused
compressional force
(comforce),
once created, cannot
vanish and transform
into Nothingness
--an entity devoid
of everything, but
its own existence.
(And that is because
in Nature, there is
no transformation
that can reduce
something into Nothingness!)
In fact, when comforce
ceases its
existence, its
reverse flip
side come into
existence which is
the balancing force
of decompression (fordec).
With that
Side-FlipSide
package, the global
ZERO-balance of the
package is being
established. 2. Newton's
3rd Law of Motion
(formulated that "for
every action,
there is an equal
and opposite
reaction"),
has its substratum
in the 3rd FURON.
The
recognition of the
existence of fordec can
be construed, in a
most subtle way, as
being the
recognition of
matter's predisposition
in residing at the baselevel
(BALE) state.
That given
ultimate predisposed existence
of matter
(gupem) stands
as the foundational
pillar of
TRUTON.
Matter's
With that
foundational recognition of
matter's primal predisposition, we now are ready
to move on, from Prena--the precursor of
Nature to the emergence of the embryonal
Nature (Embryna), on the mamo engine of TRUTON.
