The Space

When we sense some substance, that substance must have some extension. This extension is called SPACE. We may say that the substance is occupying this space; but that space denotes the dimension of the substance.

In short, space is a characteristic of the substance that we sense. In the absence of substance there is no space. When we observe “empty space” around us, it is empty of matter only; It is not empty of radiation and thought. It is an error to think that there can be a void in which nothing exists. What comes closest to being a void is non-awareness.

When a substance condenses it becomes smaller. This we see as space contracting. It amounts to a shortening of the wavelength of the substance. It is assumed that that the wavelength of the universe is infinite.

Matter has the smallest wavelength. The wavelength of radiation is larger by many orders of magnitude. The wavelength of thought is still larger by many orders of magnitude. Thought may approximate the infinite wavelength of the universe’s space. Science views this space mathematically without associating any substance with it.

The planets, stars and galaxies are floating in a sea of radiation. And that sea of radiation is most likely floating in a much larger sea of thought.
