A life organism is a highly complex structure with inherent self-animation. It follows both physical and metaphysical laws of nature. The life organism maintains harmony all around. It assimilates the substance and sensations of the universe within itself. It then expresses the nature of the universe through itself. In this way, the life organism becomes an intermediate step in the understanding of the universe.
.
The life organism is made of matter, energy and thought. It occupies space and persists in time. The body is made of matter, the energy travels through the nerves, and the thought appears in the pattern of energy and the motion of matter. Thought is regulated by the programming stored in the DNA molecule.
The life organism is self-animated. Its motion is closely tied to its structure. As the structure of life organism becomes more sophisticated, so does its motion. Thought is part of that structure. A mere change in thought affects the movement of the organism. Thought is very sensitive and it responds to the slightest change in the configuration of the body and the environment.
Thus, the life organism has awareness. It is aware of its own harmony and has an inherent sense of oneness. The moment that harmony is disturbed, or the sense of oneness is violated, it becomes aware that there is something it does not understand. The life organism then makes an effort to understand it.
.
The life organism senses what is there, and reacts to it. It harmonizes that reaction using its inherent sense of oneness. From that harmony comes an understanding of that which it is sensing.
The process of harmonizing requires postulation. It is like solving a puzzles by trial and error. The life organism makes a postulate to see if this is what it is sensing. If it is not then it makes another postulate. This process continues until, suddenly, everything falls into place. There comes about a harmony. A sense of oneness is achieved. An advance is made in the understanding of the universe.
Thus, by solving anomalies one at a time, and coming up with the right postulates, an understanding of the universe is constructed. That understanding is used by the life organism over time to enhance its own form and motion. Thus, the sensations are assimilated into the life organism. And the organism evolves.

PM AXIOM 1: The basis of life is awareness.
PM AXIOM 2: The awareness and sensations arise simultaneously.
NOTE: Sensations are what the awareness senses and becomes aware of. Both awareness and sensations are postulates,
PM AXIOM 3: The purpose of awareness is to assimilate sensations.
NOTE: To assimilate is to bring about harmony, consistency and continuity in all that is sensed.
PM AXIOM 4: The assimilation starts with the postulate of substance that has intrinsic motion and inertia.
NOTE: Substance has the forms of matter, energy and thought. Its motion and inertia balance each other.
PM AXIOM 5: The primary characteristics of substance are extents (space) and duration (time).
NOTE: A substance has its own space and time. Its background may consist of space and time of much less condensed substance. An example would be a fish in water.
PM AXIOM 6: Substance of different kinds combines to generate life organisms of complex forms and motion.
PM AXIOM 7: The awareness is engaged in the assimilation of all sensations with all their complexity.
PM AXIOM 8: Assimilation involves resolution of anomalies resulting in the laws of nature.
NOTE: Anomalies are instances of disharmony, inconsistency and discontinuity.
PM AXIOM 9: The assimilation brings about order into chaos with the laws of nature.
PM AXIOM 10: Awareness increases the capacity to assimilate sensation through the formation of life organisms.
PM AXIOM 11: A life organism is a highly complex structure with inherent self-animation.
PM AXIOM 12: A life organism follows the laws of nature, both physical and metaphysical.
PM AXIOM 13: The activity of life organism speeds up the assimilation of sensations.
PM AXIOM 14: The universe and the life in it must maintain harmony all around.
PM AXIOM 15: The life organism is an intermediate step in the understanding of the universe.
.
The understanding of the universe arises from the assimilation of sensations. Underlying this universe is a spectrum of substance that has inherent motion and inertia. The substance has the characteristics of space and time.
Substance of different kinds combines to generate life organisms of increasingly complex forms and motion. The life organisms are engaged in assimilating sensations to understand the universe. Thus come about the laws of nature.
The form and activity of life organisms, which follow the laws of nature, accelerates the understanding of the universe. There is an overall harmony and a sense of oneness to this understanding.

Reference: The Dianetics Axioms
L. Ron Hubbard found that man is obeying very definite laws and rules which could be set forward in axioms. The very first and most fundamental of these is: The dynamic principle of existence is survive. That is the basic axiom of Dianetics.
The original Dianetic axioms are referenced below in black.
In color are corresponding axioms as seen through Postulate Mechanics (PM).
.
The primary goal of life organisms is to accelerate the evolution of the universe. The process of evolution consists of continual resolution of anomalies.
The universe impinges on the organism as sensations. When assimilated into the matrix structure of the mind, these sensations appear as perceptions. A lack of assimilation distorts perception and generates anomalies.
The degree of lack of assimilation is referred to as RANDOMITY. It constitutes a departure from Oneness. Randomity manifests as too little or too much motion as opposed to optimum motion. Zero randomity is necessary to learning. There should be just the right effort to resolve the counter-effort.

As viruses and cells aggregate they evolve into higher life organisms and acquire greater abilities. “Life” is the coordinated motion of complex configurations of substance. The center of such coordination of motion develops into a mind.
The mind confuses present circumstances with past experiences that did not get assimilated. This presents anomalies. The purpose of the mind becomes the resolution of anomalies by assimilating sensations from the past in the present. Failure to do so can lead to the extinction of the life organism.
An organism evolves by resolving anomalies on various dynamics. It makes effort to resolve anomalies by the support of pro-survival factors present. Such pro-survival factors include the ecosystems formed by life organisms.

The effort of life organisms at any moment is to spot and resolve anomalies. While rightness is made up of efforts that lead towards oneness, wrongness is associated with efforts that generate more anomalies than they resolve. An organism engaged in evolutionary efforts feels joy; but it feels pain when it is thwarted in its evolution, or when it engages in non-survival activity.
The ultimate goal of life organisms is to continue to evolve. Death is a normal aspect of continuing evolution. An organism’s efforts are highly complex and reasoned, and assisted or opposed by other organisms and environment. But, upon death, only simpler motion persists in the lower level configurations that remain.
The cell and virus are the primary building blocks of life organisms. They aggregate into colonies to increase potential motion and accomplish effort. The goal of viruses and cells is to evolve into higher level organisms.

THETA = Life Static
PHI or MEST = The Physical Universe
LAMBDA = Living organism or organisms
DN AXIOM 31: Wrongness is always miscalculation of effort.

PM AXIOM 34: The common denominator of all life organisms is motion.
PM AXIOM 35: Effort of a life organism is to resolve an anomaly by its physical motion at a given moment in time through space.
.
DN AXIOM 36: An organism’s effort can be to remain at rest or persist in a given motion.
Static state has position in time, but an organism which is remaining positionally in a static state, if alive, is still continuing a highly complex pattern of motion, such as the heartbeat, digestion, etc. The efforts of organisms to survive or succumb are assisted, compelled or opposed by the efforts of other organisms, matter, energy, space and time.DEFINITION: Attention is a motion which must remain at an optimum effort. Attention is aberrated by becoming unfixed and sweeping at random or becoming too fixed without sweeping. Unknown threats to survival when sensed cause attention to sweep without fixing. Known threats to survival when sensed cause attention to fix.

The higher life organisms are supported by lower ones. Together they bring changes in the environment and to themselves toward greater oneness. This requires a harmonious rate of interaction.
The basic purpose of reason is to resolve violations of oneness in perception and understanding. These violations are anomalies, such as, discontinuities, inconsistencies, and disharmonies. The mind is the command post of the organism. It is concerned wholly with the resolution of anomalies.
The reason fails when it is fixated on (identified with) some aspect of the universe and fails to recognize anomalies. Rightness is made up of efforts that lead towards oneness.

DN AXIOM 16: The basic food of any organism consists of light and chemicals.
Organisms can exist only as higher levels of complexities because lower levels of converters exist. THETA evolves organisms from lower to higher forms and supports them by the existence of lower converter forms.
DN AXIOM 17: THETA, via LAMBDA, effects an evolution of MEST.
In this we have the waste products of organisms on the one hand as those very complex chemicals which bacteria make and, on the other hand, we have the physical face of the Earth being changed by animals and men, such changes as grass holding mountains from eroding or roots causing boulders to break, buildings being built and rivers being dammed.

PM AXIOM 20: The life organism evolves by interacting with its environment in various ways.
NOTE: The evolution is always in terms of an understanding of what is there.
.
DN AXIOM 21: LAMBDA is dependent upon optimum motion. Motion which is too swift and motion which is too slow are equally contra survival.
