Reference: Essays on Substance

In the book, One Hundred Authors Against Einstein, Einstein was criticized for not providing the philosophic foundations for his work on General Relativity. The philosophic foundation for the Theory of Substance rests on the following statements:

1. We can know only what we can sense. We then interpret that sensation.
2. Any interpretation of what we sense is real to the degree that it is continuous, consistent and harmonious with the rest of reality.
3. All reality is continuous, consistent and harmonious in its nature. This property is called ONENESS.
4. ONENESS is part of the very derivation of the word UNIVERSE.
5. Even God is characterized as ONE.

From this foundation flows all logic and the concept of truth and the scientific method.

ONENESS

Oneness comes about as substantiality is assimilated in awareness. With assimilation comes about harmony of awareness. With increasing harmony comes about consistency. And, with increasing consistency comes about continuity. Oneness lies in the harmony of relations, consistency of realities, and continuity of dimensions. Oneness underlies the very concept of the Universe. It is the key to Scientific Method. Oneness is not a monotone canvas; but it is a beautiful painting full of colors and forms that are harmonious, consistent and continuous.

Oneness is erroneously identified with sameness. From the cosmic scale down to the atomic scale, everything is one.

LOGIC

Oneness gives us the ideal scene for logic.

The violation of oneness gives us anomalies, such as, discontinuity (missing data), inconsistency (contradictory data), and disharmony (arbitrary data).

This is infinity-valued logic as compared to binary or multi-valued logic.

.

TRUTH

Oneness also provides the criterion for truth.

The relative truth depends on the absence of anomalies.

THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD

The core of the Scientific Method is the CONSISTENCY of experimental results with the actual reality that we observe. This consistency appears as CONTINUITY at very small atomic scales, and as HARMONY at very large cosmic scales. The Scientific Method insists on establishing continuity, consistency and harmony among all elements of a physical phenomena, but this is equally applicable to metaphysical phenomenon.
