Reference: The Logical Structure of the Universe
According to the Vedas the universe has neither a beginning, nor an end.
The logical view of the universe is that it is harmonious in all aspects. It is this continued consistency that forms the background of truth. Any inconsistency simply points to some missing truth.
Duality appears throughout the universe; but when that duality is observed closely it reduces to a continuously varying characteristic that can be represented by a scale.
This is a universe of change. It is changing continuously without stopping. Its behavior is analogous to the motion of a pendulum that keeps on swinging under the influence of gravity.
Using the analogy of the pendulum, the extreme states of the universe may be called static and kinetic. The state of static corresponds to some maximum potential, like the one which exists at either end of the swing of the pendulum. The state of kinetic corresponds to some maximum dynamic, like the one which exists at the middle of the swing of the pendulum in either direction.
As the state of static is reached at the end of a swing, it is disturbed immediately with the start of the next swing. So the state of static may exist only momentarily for the Universe. At that point the Universe shall consist of the maximum potential that is about to express itself in infinity of ways.
Religions look at this “state of static” as God. Science looks at it as the point just before Big Bang.
In the state of static there is no matter, energy, space, time, or even awareness. There is only a potential for all these things. We do not know what causes this potential. It may be some Cosmic influence, similar to gravity that keeps a pendulum swinging.
But neither religion nor science has any clue about the Cosmic influence, which keeps this universe eternally changing.

As the state of static is disturbed, the state becomes increasingly dynamic moving toward the state of kinetic. It may be possible to plot a scale of Disturbance ranging from static to kinetic.
This Disturbance Scale shall parallel the scale of Inertia. The early part of the Inertial Scale consists of the electromagnetic spectrum.
Looking and Mindfulness seems to be on the early part of the Disturbance Scale. They likely parallel the electromagnetic spectrum.

Huge extrapolations from a tiny little peak, but you’re pulling it together. Nice statement.

I think the breakthrough for me was working out the Logic of Truth.

The Unknowable is still there. Haha!

The above view is consistent with Eastern religions and also with Science.
The viewpoint of God in Abrahamic religions is as human-centric as its earlier belief that earth is at the center of this universe.

Matter is created as an electromagnetic “shock wave” in space. That is what a nucleus of an atom is. It results from the collapse of very high frequency disturbance in space. Here space may be considered as a theoretical electromagnetic field of zero frequency.
It is the disturbance of space, which appears as electromagnetic field. The electromagnetic field consists of a whole spectrum of frequencies. As frequncy increases bending occurs in the electromagnetic field. At high enough frequency, rotating regions appear in the electromagnetic field. These may be called electronic fields. Electronic field is the region of electrons.
As frequency increases in the electronic filed towards its center, the center collapses into a nucleus of mass. We now have an atom of matter. Thus, matter is created. Matter is also destroyed as the nucleus of an atom disintegrates into intense radiation.
But there is a balance between this creation and destruction of matter. Destruction of matter at one place may result in creation of matter at some other place. It is like a back and forth, action and reaction kind of a balanced phenomenon.
Underlying this balanced phenomenon is some cosmic influence that is yet to be investigated.

I am simply devoted to handling all those things that bothered me during my education, especially at MIT.
