What is the Theory of Everything (ToE)?

Wow!

What can I say? Thanks dallas.

I have not absorbed it all but the information sure is processing well.

I have learned some about the "Particle Zoo" and fascinated mostly with curvature trajectory those particles have at impact at CERN. That was exactly what I saw 35 years ago in my purge. Only difference being the particles were packed like sardines, I dare say, crowing-out space.

Another thing I saw remains poorly described and unproven by me.

Some particles curved into themselves and those remained visible while others seem to fade into their curve, still there but not visible.

Does any of this imagined event have any rational, scientific explanation? Or is it most likely my imagination was too active?

dallas, thanks for the encouragement. 

Like-Elvis, "Normal" has left the building. In the past couple days I have conversing by email with very knowledgable person of science. The results have been very helpful, exciting, eye-opening facts both intriguing and discouraging. 

I've read about Newton's poise and tact, Einstein's imagination, the genius off many thinkers and mathematical experts, and the very knowelable.  I fall very short in all of these except I do have a big imagination.

I'm finding I lack knowledge of terms and ideas that yields me a poor communicator of my Informational Purges. I have difficulty expressing 4-D mind's-eye observations. 

I now consider myself a hobbiest with a pet theory of everything. 

A 35-year ago Purge was similar to an Eienstein-like high-velocity tour of spacetime and particle activity. Many things were revealed to me not all of which concurred with Eienstein's conclusions. 

I have found a few scientific persons who treat disagreements of Eienstein as blasphemy.

Also, the knowledgeable  thinkers want and expect the use of terms of which I know only a few.

My recent purge took me further into realizations that require even more terms and difficulties-in-explanations. 

What could help me is any definitions of particles, matter, and mass. Up until now my understanding is that particles is what matter and mass are made of. Is that right?

"An example: Our "intent" is powerful. There are studies where an photon has been fired into a given target. (Photons have unique ability to be/display both a particle (like a bullet) yet also like a wave (ocean wave). When measurements were being taken of the simultaneous manifestations of the photon - an interesting phenomenon was observed. The "results" was of the photon fired was measured BEFORE it was fired! I know, it is hard to wrap ones head around this... How did the photon know it was going to be 'fired?"

I have applied my Theory of Everything to the example and I have found somewhat absurd but rational solution.

The Appearance Retrocasualty: Particles have many yet to be defined characteristics of which two were given in the example, "...bullet.." and " ....wave..." Particles can also attract similar particles, that which I call "Familiarity." Often particles of Familiarity gather in groups, lines, clumps, stacks, membranes, squares, circles, etc... Also some particles of Familiarity still have differences that may not disturb its Familiarity characteristics, e.g., observability, charge, size, etc... If the Familiarity is disturbed a particle may still cling to the group and may break to Familiarity elsewhere. I am presenting this theory in part because it is both lengthy and involves some confidentiality.

A short answer is the there are more photons than what has been accounted for in the example. With advanced technology, perhaps many similar photons are in the experiment.

" Claude Shannon, an American mathematician his work created the science of information that has found its way into a host of applications from broadcasting to bar codes" That comment leans to what I wrote in a previous post:

About a week ago I started a two-day imaginative purge that lead me through a very stimulating period of synesthesia-like access to information about the quantum world.

No, I was not drinking, smoking or doing any drugs. The Imagination Purge was more a product of meditation and physics mulling in my mind for more than three-decades. Bar codes, that is what it was like. It was like I was translating bar codes.

Please do not call the loony-bin.

Thanks, Perry

Hello to everyone. I hope this will be a fruitful hub for me and others.

My iPhone will not let me post so I have to be at home on my outdated desktop. If I'm slow to comment it's due technology not me ignoring you.

About a week ago I started a two-day imaginative purge that lead me through a very stimulating period of synesthesia-like access to information about the quantum world.

I started writing what I was imaging and realized I was seeing from the tinniest particles through the galaxies and strings and membranes. I typed like a robot and gradually became aware I was writing a Theory of Everything.

I am very apprehensive about going into detail because the ideas seem very absurd and I'm thinking I could come up with some tests and publish. Wow!

I have not read all the comments on this subject but I will finish reading them. I am thick-skinned and can take my lumps but hope things can be civil. I will start out by stating one of the foundations of my ToV. I do not know if this seems absurd or elementary to others so here goes...

Space does not exist.

What we see and sense and have learned to call "Space," is actually something else entirely.

I welcome comments and questions.

Thanks, Perry

I thought toe was the growth on my foot.

I thought Kripto was the element poisonous to Mr Kent

I thought the theory of everything was God.

Silly me I need to think some more. I guess your hub went over my head.

Trying to understand:

1. I am sorry, I thought the Theory of Everything was a search for this one Universal Truth!

2. If learning is not linear, well, doesn't observation of water droplets splashed upon a person occur over time? Isn't time linear?

3. Isn't ToE seeking a language that describes phenomena in a way that all understand?

Obviously, I do not yet get the point.

If there is one underlying Principal, wouldn't study of man and his ego also advance understanding, i.e., no matter the subject, studies run along parallel Universes but as in the Tower of Babel, we cannot understand each other's subject language and therefore are unable to understand this truth?

Might we learn most by studying the tiniest particle and expanding this out? Is this revealed in patterns? I am uncertain scientists are the ones to interpret these results. Perhaps this is an artist or poet's job- someone able to see the big picture translated from patterns in atomic particles?

Either way, it is fun to frame questions! Thanks so much for the stimulating hub. I look forward to becoming better versed in this. Our local Borders has a closing sale. Perhaps The Theory of Everything is available for 20% off, though Amazon no doubt offers it for less- even with the delivery charges. Where is your link, lol!

I love the idea of transforming the Vatican into support for global social change; at present it remains in first chakra tribal mode. How else can we explain the requirement, unless one is Catholic, one cannot receive communion, etc. What would it take to move us even one step above the tribal?

"Perhaps our intelligence is indivisible ... yet integrated universally"

That's quite possible, but there is very little indication man is humble enough to credit nature as the source and change the focus of research in the direction of man wanting to understand nature better as the sustaining ground force ... instead of playing all these super expensive scientific mind games more for upmanship than real applied science advancing socio-cultural change.

What I like to see is not only social change in all these countries currently in the news, but a global agreement to convert the Vatican into an international body for the advancement of the human mind so well funded science can become the unifying force for global development - doing away with nationalism, consumerism and religiosity in this world ... what a dream, eh ?

Do you think the US would be ready to undertake such a task one day or maybe just going metric is enough of a project for now to get in line with the rest of the world ? :)

Well I voted this writing piece up in several categories because 1. it was information that I was previously unaware of, and 2. because the information inlarged my knowledge of our world.

You bring up a number of interesting topics that most of us would never become aware of had we not visited your web pages. Thanks!

Regarding "...the fundamental interactions of nature, which are usually considered to be four in number: gravity, the strong nuclear force, the weak nuclear force, and the electromagnetic force." I should not reveal my ignorance, yet I will at the risk of ridicule. I want to understand, so please bear with me.

My question is, where do relationships between living creatures fit in this context? Birth, survival, emotions, healing, the effect of words on water discovered by Emoto, for example.

You are raising some very good points and with them more questions.

It's now fairly obvious, the human mind has evolved and with it, our way of thinking in scientific terms, but human culture in its unenlightened way is more in love with it's own limited string theories of reality than to give credit to our dependents on nature and her great complexity which we could learn a lot more about by searching for our common source of intelligence with all other forms of life on this planet instead of using science and technology for the glorification of a few scientists who show very little basic understanding of the roots of intellect within nature.

By the way, reviewing the article and comments, I noted I totally neglected to say what a great article this is.

The light in my head was slowly but certainly getting brighter.... until the last sentence, which knock me right back to my seat in the far corner of the class – Perhaps I should start all over, but now with your last sentence – the bar codes on our groceries. Don’t laugh, but there was a time I knew WWW&H, but I’ve forgotten the whole story. So Google, here I come again...

Dallas, we really try to understand this awesome universe through music, art, literature, philosophy, physics and what-more, and sometimes I wonder if we really need the information?

Thanks for a brain-stimulating hub. Take care.

Hello my dear Dallas, this really is way over my head, I see and love the idea of holding onto these concepts, yet my brain does not take in numbers I am so right brained it disgusting. However I always believed that the entire universe is moving towards something...like it has a destination of sorts. Maybe to the light, or heading into a black hole. My understanding is that their is no space, empty space that is...I have always looked up at the stars, even as a small child and somehow I always said to myself, "I come from there." Great hub my excellently smart friend. rate up love & peace darski

Cryptography, that's where I first heard of Shannon outside of school, and following the references from there, how many things he impacted. As a member of the loose-knit group of folks who have been trying to solve Kryptos (the sculpture at CIA by Jim Sanborn) I'd attended a Historical Symposium full of cryptography historians. The star of the Kryptos team was presenting on Kryptos. There were all sorts of discussions on how the field has impacted history, and I paid attention. Shannon was in some of the more interesting presentations.

Shannon also gets mentioned and referenced in so many things that I'm surprised his name is not a household word similar to Einsteins. Would the world have been a different place if somehow Shannon had opportunity to collaborate with Nikola Tesla?
