The Dimension
Substance has dimensions. It means that substance has different aspects, features, or angles that can be measured and displayed on a scale. The primary dimensions of substance are: consistency, time and space.
CONSISTENCY is the dimension of substantiality of the substance. The dictionary definition of consistency is a degree of density, firmness, viscosity, etc. The consistency of substance increases from thought to radiation to matter. The consistency of matter is very high and it is referred to as MASS. The higher is the consistency of substance the more FORCE it can impart because of its INERTIA.
TIME is the dimension that describes duration of the substance against the background of infinite duration. Substances of varying durations appear as if they are in MOTION relative to each other. The time/duration of substance increases as its consistency increases from thought to radiation to matter. As the duration increases the motion appears to decrease correspondingly. The duration of matter is almost infinite. And its motion is insignificant compared to the motion of radiation and thought.
SPACE is the dimension that describes the extents of substance. What appears to us as “empty space” is empty of visible matter only. It is not empty of radiation and thought. The background of seemingly infinite space actually describes the extents of thought and radiation that are invisible to us. Against this background the finite space of matter appears as material forms. The space of substance contracts as its consistency increases from thought to radiation to matter. The space of matter is studied in the subject of geometry.
