Reference: The Logical Structure of the Universe
NOTE: The following data is postulated based on contemplation of logical consistency among the data available.
.
CONTINUOUS CHANGE & COSMIC INFLUENCE
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. Similarly, the universe seems to be changing continuously in a harmonic fashion under some cosmic influence.
The cosmic influence has been referred to as Brahma in the Vedas. Brahma is very different from the universe of continuous change. Brahma is beyond any beingness because beingness is the property of the universe alone.

THE UNIVERSE AND BEINGNESS
The universe is cycling between static and kinetic states. The state of static consists of maximum potential (no manifestation). The moment state of static is disturbed the beingness of space emerges. Space then acquires time and frequency, which increases as the universe moves toward a kinetic state. The state of kinetic consists of maximum dynamic (complete manifestation).
Beingness, which starts as space, gradually develops and finally acquires the human form. The potential of the universe expresses itself through this scale of beingness. Any concept of “God with beingness” lies on this scale.
.
THE STATIC & DISTURBANCE
The state of static comes about at the end of a cycle of the universe and before the start of the next cycle. This is a momentary state of total potentiality. Nothing is there, not even space and awareness.
As the state of static is disturbed toward the state of kinetic, first there is emergence of space filled with potential. Then there is a band of perception paralleling the electromagnetic spectrum. Next there is a band of concept and ideas paralleling the atomic configurations. Beyond that there is a band of consciousness (self-awareness) paralleling the physical forms. Ultimately, this evolution culminates in human form and consciousness.
.
SPACE AND AWARENESS
Beingness arises as space the moment static is disturbed. This space is filled with potentiality. There is a physical-spiritual spread to this beingness. The physical aspect is the outer form of space; and the spiritual aspect is the inner essence of awareness. This is the elemental “Self.” There is no intelligence at this point. There is only potential.
.
PERCEPTIONS
The emergence of space then develops into a band of disturbance levels of increasing frequencies. Disturbance comes about as time enters into space. Space is then represented by a wavelength and time by a period. The spacetime is then represented by the disturbance. The outer form of the disturbance appears as the electromagnetic spectrum, and the inner essence appears as perception. Commensurate with radio waves, microwaves, visual spectrum and ionizing radiation, we have feelings, sensations, representations and precepts.
These perceptions seem to moulded in the fabric of the universe. But they also seem to arise within human beingness. Perceptions in human beingness consist of same disturbance levels that travel along the nerves of a human form.
Radio waves & Feelings
The internal essence in the range of radio waves seems to be feelings. Since the inertia in this frequency range is low, the feelings arise and disappear in a leisurely manner or very quickly. There are general feelings of love, happiness, unhappiness, etc. But there can also be mysterious feelings, such as, the feeling of somebody looking at you.
Microwaves & Sensations
Sensations seem to form the internal essence of microwaves in a higher frequency range. The perceptions of taste, smell and touch fall under the category of sensations. Here we have the sensations of temperature and electrical also. The frequencies associated with sensations seem to have a frequency envelope of feelings.
Visual spectrum & Representations
In the higher frequency range of visual spectrum sensations seem to evole into representations. The internal essence in this frequency range is the formation of awareness as specific objects. Correspondingly in human form we have vision and the ability to visualize. As we go up in frequency from feelings to sensations to representations, there seem to be increasing definition in perception. The sharpest perception seems to be representations provided by vision.
Ionizing Radiation & Precepts
Beyond visual spectrum is the higher frequency range of ionizing radiation. Here we have penetrating X-rays and Gamma rays. The inner essence of this frequency range seems to be precepts that evolve from combinations of feelings, sensations and representations. As observed from the effects of music, hearing seems to lay in this range. Even when listening to voice and animal sounds, there seems to be an effect that goes into dimensions, such as, inertia, gravity, weight, importance, purpose, intentions, etc.
Precepts appear as an interesting mix of feelings, sensations and representations, but there are also evolved dimensions expressed through art that evoke emotions. Emotion is like a current coursing through a matrix of precepts. There is anger, fear and apathy on one hand, and contentment, inspiration and interaction on the other.
Emotions have the property of being intense and volatile. Various perceptions seem to be combining randomly into rapidly changing configurations. The feelings, sensations, representations and other precepts seem to be in turmoil interacting with each other in a frenzied manner.
The upper end of Disturbance scale doesn’t seem to be a simple spectrum. Earlier frequencies seem to be riding on later frequencies with everything coming into a boil at this level. Something happens at this point to make the disturbance converge.
.
CONCEPT & IDEAS
The disturbance seems to become unstable at the upper end of the Disturbance scale. The perceptual mix of feelings, sensations, representations, etc., starts to converge into a conceptual configuration that parallels the atomic configuration.
The atomic configuration consists of a hard nucleus surrounded by an electronic region. The inner essence seems to be a conceptual configuration that consists of a well-formed nucleus of an idea surrounded by a contextual field of precepts. Just as the perceptions parallel the electromagnetic spectrum, A perceptual field parallels the electronic field of the atom, and an idea in the perceptual field parallels a nucleus in the electronic field. There are many atomic configurations per the Periodic Table. Maybe there are many basic conceptual configurations too.
All these layers of perceptions have to be very precise to result in a precise idea. When idea is not precise then the associated percepts, representations, sensations and feelings have not settled in a precise configuration yet. We see a lot of emotions being expressed by people, when their perceptions have not settled into a precise understanding in terms of ideas.
.
CONSCIOUSNESS (SELF-AWARENESS)
Atoms are formed into a matrix of elements, compounds, and materials, which are then shaped into forms. Thus we have a large number of nuclear, chemical and physical properties that come about.
Similarly, we have concepts formed into a matrix of ideas categorized as axioms, principles, laws, theories, hypotheses, etc., which are then shaped into experiences. Thus, there is evolution of awareness having a center as “self.” Thus come about self-awareness or consciousness. This area requires considerable research.
Ultimately, there is the evolution of human form along with its property of human consciousness. So, this human consciousness is a product of millions and billions of years of evolution. For human consciousness to investigate its own evolution is an incredible endeavor to engage in.
The human beingness is very complex associations of percepts, concepts, and consciousness. “I” is an expression of an incredible amount of development over the evolutionary line. It has come very far from the elemental awareness of space.

Quotes from Einstein
1. “Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution.”
2. “Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds. The mediocre mind is incapable of understanding the man who refuses to bow blindly to conventional prejudices and chooses instead to express his opinions courageously and honestly.”
3. “Human knowledge and skills alone cannot lead humanity to a happy and dignified life. Humanity has every reason to place the proclaimers of high moral standards and values above the discoverers of objective truth.”
4. “Few people are capable of expressing with equanimity opinions which differ from the prejudices of their social environment. Most people are even incapable of forming such opinions.”
5. “I, at any rate, am convinced that He (God) does not throw dice.”
6. “The important thing is not to stop questioning; curiosity has its own reason for existing.”
7. “Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.”
8. “Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I’m not sure about the universe.”
9. “Falling in love is not at all the most stupid thing that people do— but gravitation cannot be held responsible for it.”
