The Inertia

The Inertia

INERTIA is the resistance that is felt when something is pushed. If something offers no resistance then there can be no push either. Therefore, for force to be manifested there must be inertia opposing it. Both force and inertia are the manifestation of the consistency of substance.

When the force upon an object and its inertia are in exact balance, there exists a uniform state of motion, or rest, in which there is no acceleration. The fact that the speed of light is constant means that it has inertia that is balancing any electromagnetic force acting upon it. If there is no inertia, the speed shall be infinite.

A body with infinite consistency shall have infinite inertia and it would not be displaceable from its location. We may assign it zero absolute motion. As the consistency reduces, the inertia also reduces and some displacement would become possible. This shall bring about a configuration similar to that of a rotating galaxy. We can thus show an inverse relationship between consistency and absolute motion.

When an object is accelerated to a higher speed with the application of an external force, and the external force is removed; then the inertia of the object will start acting to bring the object back to its original balanced speed. If the inertia is also reduced in the process, then the higher speed shall be maintained.

Both Force and Inertia are manifestations of consistency.

The Mass

May 23, 2024 – 10:43 AM

Reference: The Book of Physics

Mass is the key property of matter, that is directly linked to its weight. Mass reflects the consistency of matter.

.

Definition of MASS

The substantialness of matter is called mass. The mass of matter allows it to be divided into very small particles. A material object, regardless of its size, can be treated mathematically as if all its mass is concentrated at a point. We call this point the “center-of-mass.”

The “center-of-mass” allows a material object to be treated as a point particle in most mathematical visualizations. This property is peculiar to matter, and it does not exist for other forms of substance, such as, energy and thought. 

In case of matter, mass represents its consistency. According to The Motion, the intrinsic motion of substance is related to its consistency. Therefore, an object has a natural motion in free space that depends on its mass. Even the slightest change in the mass changes this motion. Therefore, we observe relative motion among objects, such as the planets, due to differences in their mass.

The rest mass of an object is measured, when it is moving naturally in free space, or when it is at rest relative to the observer.

The term ‘relativistic mass’ was invented to convey the idea that it is harder to push a moving object, as you have to be moving faster than the object to push it. It is a misconception that a particle’s mass gets bigger as it speeds up.

.

Notes

The mass of an object is the total of the masses of its molecules. The mass of a molecule is the total of the masses of its atoms. The mass of an atom is the total of the masses of neutrons, protons and electrons that constitute it. Therefore, when we talk about the total mass of an object, it is the sum of the mass of all the particles that constitute that object. The mass of individual particles differ as follows:

Mass of neutron = 1.675 × 10−27 kg
Mass of proton = 1.673 × 10−27 kg 
Mass of electron = 9.109×10−31 kg

Very small differences in the mass of an object are capable of producing significant relative motion in free space. This property of mass may provide some clue to the nature of gravity.

.

Key Misconception

The key misconception in Newtonian mechanics is that an object is not seen as having a natural motion in free space as a function of its mass.

The Misconception

The Misconception

A misconception is an erroneous idea, or a mistaken notion, such as, “the sun goes around the earth.” The deeper and broader is a misconception, the wider is its influence in the society. It appears natural because everybody appears to think that way. 

2600 years ago, Buddha discovered, “The Absolute Truth is that there is nothing absolute in the world, that everything is relative, conditioned and impermanent, and that there is no unchanging, everlasting, absolute substance like Self, Soul, or Ātman within or without.” Yet, the majority of the people in the world still believe that, even though their body will die, their soul will live forever.

Misconceptions form the subtlest layer that underlies the layers of misjudgments and engrams. As an individual becomes aware of his misconceptions and resolves them, it becomes easier for him to recognize his misjudgments and resolve them too. As he keeps on doing so, one day he may come face to face with his birth engram and discharge it. Other engrams, if they exist, may then follow.

The process of Subject Clearing examines the concepts in any subject starting from the broadest and most fundamental concepts. When this process is applied to the subject of existence the problem of beingness starts to resolve rapidly.

.

Misconception

In general, people do not realize the importance of resolving their misconceptions no matter how innocent they might appear. Many misconception are buried in the definitions that are provided to us through dictionaries.

The Identification

May 17, 2024 – 10:46 AM

Reference: Postulate Mechanics

The Identification

Identification is unconsciously taking the form of what one has sensed but not fully assimilated.

When the Self first senses the Universe it obtains an impression. This impression must be fully assimilated with rest of its experience before Self can become consciously aware of it.

Identification is the stage when the Self, being impressed, acts out according to that impression, while not conscious of it. It is unable to control those actions until impression is fully assimilated. 

All difficulties of a person stem from acting according to the impressions that are not yet assimilated. The person cannot think beyond those impressions. He thinks those impression to be his self.

Identification results in a fixation of attention. The fixation simply narrows the person’s viewpoint. For example, a person who is identifying himself with his body, is mainly aware of the needs of the body for sex, food and survival. All his concerns are guided by those needs.

As these impressions and fixations assimilate the person is able to act more and more with conscious awareness.

.

Misconception

It is a key misconception that one knows it all and one does not need to look at things closely.

The Engram

The Engram

An engram is a condensed sensation that is difficult to assimilate naturally in the mental matrix. Therefore, a person is not aware of its content, or even its presence. The engram is generated during birth, or during a traumatic experience. The unassimilated engram influences the body and mind adversely, causing aberrations and much discomfort. 

Birth is an excellent example of an engram. Everyone has it, and it generally is the cause of the auto-immune disease in the body. When a person becomes aware of his birth engram and assimilates it, the auto-immune disease disappears. The damage already caused by the auto-immune disease, however, may take a long time to repair itself.

Engrams, when spotted and examined closely, start to unravel for the first time like a literal recording of some past incident. This is different from a memory, which is known to exist, and is often recalled. 

The ‘past life memories’ are engrams that are startling when unravelled for the first time because their time characteristics do not fit with the present. Later they are recalled like any memory, to make sense out of them. Such engrams are said to be carried forward on the genetic line. They seem to continue from one generation to the next until they are finally assimilated.

The engrams underlying ‘past life memories’ were known in Buddha’s time as  ’samskara’. They were said to determine the deep-seated tendencies of a person that he could not control. These ’samskara’ depended on a person’s past ‘karma.’

The number of engrams existing in an individual are few. They are obvious and come up first during subject clearing. As one continues to address introversions and misconceptions, the remaining engrams will naturally come up if they exist.

.

Misconception

A past life engram does not necessarily imply that the individual has lived before. The engram may have come into existence in the life of an ancestor. Besides, there is no single engram, the discovery and assimilation of which will handle the whole case of the individual.
