Simple Explanation Answers Dark Matter, Anti-Matter, Gravity, Symmetry Problems

 A recent article printed by getpocket.com explained the concepts of symmetry, supersymmetry, and dualities in Einstein’s physics. The article by KC Cole of Quanta magazine did an excellent job of describing the concepts. If you want to read the entire article, click here.

In the course of the article some big questions that have flummoxed physicists were raised, such as: what broke the symmetry between matter and anti-matter during the course of the Big Bang? Why didn’t matter and anti-matter annihilate each other? Why is only matter here in the universe—where is the anti-matter required by symmetry?

Several more questions were raised in the following paragraph from the same article:

“Over the past several decades, some physicists have begun to question whether focusing on symmetry is still as productive as it used to be. New particles predicted by theories based on symmetries haven’t appeared in experiments as hoped, and the Higgs boson that was detected was far too light to fit into any known symmetrical scheme. Symmetry hasn’t yet helped to explain why gravity is so weak, why the vacuum energy is so small, or why dark matter remains transparent.”

Well, believe it or not, the Simple Explanation has answers to these questions. Yes, my physics may seem odd, but certainly no odder than quantum physics or Einstein’s relativistic theories.

As you know, the Simple Explanation proposes that a fractal membrane envelops our universe in a torus shape. I also propose that the knots of sub-atomic particles arising from the quantum foam are also torus shapes. Using this basic concept, I have diagrammed an answer to the questions posed above.

Let’s look at this artist’s rendition of a magnetar for an example of the torus shape and dynamics. This illustration shows the toroidal shape surrounding the star, the pole running up the middle of the field, and the venting of energy out through either end of the poles.

Firstly, imagine that this shape can be found throughout all of the matter of the universe, at all scales, including universal. This is why it is called a fractal toroidal pattern.

According to the Simple Explanation, proto-energy enters our universe at the zero point of the torus, emerging from the middle as light and quantum foam.  Matter and electromagnetic force fills the torus envelope from the middle outward, expanding space as it does so.

If this apple were the universe, the seeds clustered around the core would represent subatomic particles held in place by the weak and the strong forces.

Some of the material rides down the pole and wraps around the exterior surface of the torus. The membrane itself answers two of the fundamental questions regarding gravity and dark matter—for both of these elements are inherent to the outside of the torus. The membrane itself consists of the missing dark matter of the universe, arrayed as a fractalized membrane that holds ordinary material and energy within the torus.

Gravity is the inward pushing force riding the outside of the torus. It appears weak because it is inward directed and therefore difficult to measure from the outside. In the Simple Explanation, gravity is inherent in the outer skin of the enveloping toruses, pushing inward. It is this inward pull that causes exterior objects to be drawn toward the torus. Gravity is not “out there” in space time, but riding the skin of the torus, pulling toward the middle of the torus. Aggregates of material exert more gravitational attraction than singular subatomic particles because they aggregate the gravitational forces of their constituent particles. The more massive the object, the more aggregated the pull of gravity.

Dark matter is the skin of the apple, so to speak. It is everywhere because it wraps around everything. We can’t see or measure the outside of the torus because we, and all ordinary matter, are inside the torus, whether the torus is tiny or universal. This implies that the outside of the torus rests in an adjacent dimension that we cannot access. Dark matter is not observable because the exterior of the torus is outside our three dimensional space.

The final answer supplied in this article answers the question of “what happened to the symmetrical anti-matter as matter filled our toroidally expanding space following the Big Bang?”

My answer would have us look at the pole of the torus. It is reasonable to propose that while matter filled the interior of the universal-sized torus, its corresponding anti-matter shot out the ends of the poles and diffused into the adjacent dimension, thus preserving the symmetry of matter/anti-matter while at the same time eliminating anti-matter's presence in our space/time continuum.

My torus model seems able to answer the questions posed above. Looking at the math using algebraic geometry may provide the proofs. Any takers?

Magnetar Image Makes for a Lovely Torus

 I know this blog has many fans of the torus shape. Here's a good-looking magnetar torus and a link to the article that accompanied it from Science News. The article concerns a new theory that those mysterious fast radio bursts and high-energy neutrinos are both thrown off by magnetars--

What? You didn't know that the universe is full of toruses? Read all about it by clicking on this Simple Explanation article.

Magnetars, highly magnetized stellar corpses like the one illustrated here, could be the source of two different cosmic enigmas: fast radio bursts and high-energy neutrinos, a new study suggests.

Ten-Year Anniversary of A Simple Explanation--New Edition of Book For Sale Now!

You may purchase the new Amazon paperback and Kindle ebook editions here, now.

Ten years ago I turned on my word processor to begin writing a play about a midwife's trial. Instead, the first twenty pages of "A Simple Explanation" poured out onto the screen. 

I had been thinking about these topics for many years. The most important concepts to me at that time were "mud up, spirit down," and "as above, so below." I had also been meditating upon the donut shape known as a "torus" since reading Bentov's "Stalking the Wild Pendulum" in 1979. Finally, the concept of holographs often rolled through my mind--the idea that you can replicate the original wholeness of an object or image by studying a small fragment of the whole. 

I was working as a breakfast chef at my own bed and breakfast, which gave me plenty of time for contemplation while preparing food. 

I had begun to notice and photograph the repetitive interior shape of fruits and vegetables as I dealt with them in the kitchen. At some point I noticed that the seed explosion came from the middle of their shapes, no matter if it was an apple, a tomato, a pepper, or a squash. Once I saw that, I observed that the fruits were variations of the torus shape, and the seeds came from the center, with the stem line going right through these center seeds and extending out the bottom. 

It was a happy day, indeed, when A Simple Explanation presented itself to me. Boom! Everything fell into place on the page with no strain at all on my part, as if my subconscious had already figured it out and now my fingers were receiving the message.

Soon thereafter I established the Simple Explanation blog and essentially developed all of the remaining concepts publicly online. If you are interested in tracing the theory's genesis, you can go back to the first dozen or so postings from the blog's historical timeline, beginning in January of 2010. The blog has been viewed over 270,000 times and I have written and posted well over 300 original articles.

Since that time, I have been gratified to see a number of my scientific hypotheses come true. My original meme-based social theories are also proving to be true, and easier than ever observe nowadays during these times of tremendous social and political upheaval.

Lastly, the "hard problem" of consciousness is not at all hard when viewed through the paradigm-shifting lens of A Simple Explanation. My articles concerning my "Simple Fractal Model of the Conscious Universe" have been viewed over 21,000 times.

This 3rd edition, of "A Simple Explanation of Absolutely Everything" contains new material not included in the previous editions, including expanded sections on evolutionary theory, reincarnation, and meme theory. There are also examples of the theory applied, so you can see how the Simple Explanation makes even the incomprehensible understandable. 

The 3rd edition is a black and white paperback, available on Amazon for $19.99. There is also a kindle ebook edition in color, if your reader is in color, for only $4.99.

The new edition is now available from Amazon.com in all markets.

Fear Not

 I wrote this article for my Gnostic blog, but perhaps some of you need to read it, too. I'm reposting it here for your edification.

The Archons Are Making a Full Court Press for the Earth...

It becomes more and more clear that life has taken a distinctly weird turn to the left into territory usually occupied by apocalyptic science fiction. There is no denying that the archons are making a big power play right now for Earth. Distinctions between vice and virtue, evil and good, materialism and spirit, are being revealed to all. What was once murky and confusing becomes more clear by the day.

As I type this, a world-wide pandemic has locked down humans to their homes. In the name of the pandemic, humans are wearing masks to hide their faces. In the name of the pandemic, humans may no longer shake hands in greeting or come within six feet of each other. In the name of the pandemic, children do not go to school. In the name of the pandemic, small businesses remain boarded up while mega-corporations prosper. In the name of the pandemic, politics as usual has been suspended in favor of protests, riots, and assassinations.

Cataclysmic weather and fires assail the earth. The sky is orange and  thick with smoke. Homes are destroyed.

Are you frightened? There is no need to be. Will you allow me to reassure you?

Most people think the opposite of faith is disbelief. This isn't true. The opposite of faith is fear. The way out of your fear is through the gateway of faith. This is a gateway that every person must pass through on their way to redemption from fear.

Anger will not remove your fear. Blame will not remove your fear. Resistance will not remove your fear. Masks and social distancing will not remove your fear. Only faith will remove your fear.

If you are a religious or spiritually-oriented person, you already know this, deep in your soul. If you are a materialistic or worldly person, you do not realize this truth yet and you reject this advice as hopelessly ignorant and naive. But the fact of the matter is that everyone, every human being on the planet, will come to realize this, and it is a hoop that everyone must pass through. And we all must pass through one at a time, individually.

The good news is this: good is stronger than evil. The One who is above all other distractions, gods, and archons, will win in the end. It is time for you to remember that. It is time for you to remember that you come from Above, and you will return to the One after death. 

Remember, these events shall pass and we will all live happily ever after. 

You may read all about these eternal forces and your home Above in many sources. One good source is my book, The Gnostic Gospel Illuminated, which explains all that you need to know for redemption and freedom from fear.

This book is easy to understand and very affordable.

Onward and upward!

President John F. Kennedy on Progressive Extremism

 Here's what President Kennedy would say about the people who are tearing down statues and rioting in the streets. And I quote:

“We are not afraid to entrust the American people with unpleasant facts, foreign ideas, alien philosophies, and competitive values. For a nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people.”

“What is objectionable, what is dangerous about extremists is not that they are extreme, but that they are intolerant. The evil is not what they say about their cause, but what they say about their opponents.”

John F. Kennedy

Protest is one thing--physical violence is quite another. 

Not agreeing with another person is one thing--not allowing the other to speak is quite another. 

Passionate disapproval of other's views is one thing--censorship is quite another.

Calling someone out for their meme bundles is one thing--lying about what their meme bundle says is another.

Standing up for righteousness and justice is one thing--rank hypocrisy is another.

While I may earnestly disagree with your views and your opinions--my lying about what You think and misrepresenting objective facts is quite another.

I have no doubt that President Kennedy would be appalled at the current state of his Party. 

We Can't Level Up to Create Consciousness

Here is an audio file that I recorded while walking my dog in the woods. This is when I do my best thinking. 

The topic is on "leveling up."  If you are familiar with A Simple Explanation of Absolutely Everything, you know that all units of consciousness "hold hands" with others to form the next level up in complexity. This linking up is the fractal pattern that builds our universe.

i.e.: atoms hold hands to make molecules; molecules hold hands to make elements. Elements aggregate into larger forms such as minerals and planets and galaxies. As far as non-living units go, there is no higher form of consciousness than molecular consciousness. A virus is an example of a complex molecule that behaves as if it were alive, but it is only a complex molecule, albeit the smartest type of non-living molecule, able to carry out incredibly clever instructions.

Then we get to living forms. Using all of the molecular matter as building blocks: sub-cellular components hold hands to make cells; cells hold hands to make organelles; organelles hold hands to make organs; organs hold hands to make organisms--all creatures from bacteria through all types of fauna and flora. In addition to building and birthing conscious life forms, creatures also hold hands to make cultural aggregates like families and tribes, herds and businesses, cities and nations.

Looking at the diagram below, you can see how the various levels cooperate within themselves to "level up" to the next level above. The level above is more complex than the level below. There are also far fewer instances of objects/units of consciousness each time you level up. There are way more cells than organs in an organism, for example. 

For some time I have wondered if there were a qualitative difference between life forms and molecular level consciousness. Why is it that "meat" levels up to make more complex, conscious assemblages, whereas "mud" can't rise above molecular level consciousness. A statue carved out of a stone cannot give birth to baby statues or animate itself because it is not "alive." Another way to put this is that living things are able to give birth, whereas "mud" cannot give birth. Viruses, for example, cannot make baby viruses or walk about on their own steam, no matter how complex they look and behave. All that viruses can do is conquer and kill living organisms.

Another thing that cannot give birth or level up to the next unit of live consciousness is an organoid. An organoid is a collection of cells grown in a lab dish that scientists hope to prod into an organ. But, try as they may, the best organoids can only grow laterally to produce more cells like themselves. They are unable to level up to form the organ they would naturally form if these cells were embedded in a living organism. A dish of neuronal brain cells will not make a brain, for example.

The answer became clear to me during the walk I was taking in 2018 when I recorded this audio file. For you Simple Explanation followers, these musing overlap the New Gnostic Gospel material from my other blog. Before we proceed, listen to this audio, and I'll explain more afterward.

Simply put, the way that units of consciousness level up is by holding hands, sharing information, and working together with a common purpose.  This is what the Simple Explanation refers to as the "Golden Rule."

If this is the fractal pattern of our universe, why can't nonliving forms give rise to living forms? Why is it that computer networks will never give rise to a truly conscious AI life form? Why can't an organoid become an organ? Why can't a corporation or a city become self-aware?

Turns out the answer lies in the nature of the originating consciousness. The originating unit of consciousness, also known as the Father in religious traditions, is the only life form in the universe. Life doesn't give rise to consciousness--consciousness gives rise to life. Consciousness doesn't work its way upward from the mud; consciousness is bestowed from "above." Holding hands and working together is our universal mandate, and that is what builds our ordered universe, but it is not what gives rise to units of consciousness. 

This is what gives rise to new units of consciousness:

According to the Gnostic Gospel, all life forms are created by the Father with the help of Logos (knowledge, order, logic) and the Pleroma (blueprints, personalities, forces, natural law). Without their blessing and involvement, life cannot arise.

This is why mud, created during the Fall, cannot come alive. This is why organoids, assembled by humans, cannot level up to organs. This is why AI will never be truly alive, although as part of the Deficiency, it will do a great imitation of life. And this is why our cultural aggregations and computer simulations are not self-aware, because they come from us rather than the Father, or the originating unit of consciousness.

The reason the audio message above speaks of "the church" is because that is a Gnostic  term for the assemblage of aeons in the Pleroma whose function it is to glorify the Father.  The human churches here on earth are replicas of the church of the Pleroma, and the "devout" are replicas of the "elect" of the Pleroma. As human-made institutions, they have no life or consciousness of their own. But in "spirit filled" churches, the spirit comes down from the church of the Pleroma to enliven the assemblage. This is why I say that a true church can be considered alive. Certainly not all churches are true or alive, and not all religious folks are "devout," and that is why the audio speaks of "devout" assemblages only.

My Commentary on Bertrand Russell's Nobel Prize Acceptance Speech Posted to Gnostic Blog

I've just posted an article called "A Gnostic Commentary on Bertrand Russell's Nobel Prize Acceptance Speech" over on my Gnostic cosmology blog. You can read it by clicking through from this link.

Simple Explanation Blog Shadow Banned by Big Tech

The Simple Explanation blog has been up and running for over ten years. I've written about 300 original blog articles and have reposted a number of blog articles from controversial web sites, such as mercola.com.  

The author in happier times--Esalen gardens

Yesterday I sat down with a friend to show her this Simple Explanation blog. It was nowhere to be found, not even when we typed in the exact URL for the blog site. This is called "shadow banning." The blog is obviously there, but it can no longer be reached, not even by typing in the exact URL address. It can only be accessed by forwarding links to others. At this point in time, you are still allowed to view the blog if you click on a personally-forwarded blog link. 

The sneaky thing about shadow-banning is that it's difficult to spot. I did not know the Simple Explanation was banned because my computer finds it without difficulty. If you are a regular reader of the Simple Explanation, you wouldn't know it either, because your computer remembers and recognizes the blog's URL. But on someone's computer who has never before read the Simple Explanation, the blog will not show up, even if you type in the URL directly. You can test this out for yourself by using a friend's computer.

In these days of covid, my blog posts began to be "corrected" by the faceless drones that work for google. Funny how my paradigm-shifting science and spirituality blog never wrote anything deemed controversial prior to the covid pandemic. Ha! Just ask any conventional scientist working in academia if my hypotheses are controversial. Of course they are! They have always been outside of the mainstream! Yet, over the past ten years my hypotheses have been proven correct time and time again by ongoing scientific research and new discoveries.

But now, google has finally seen fit to label yours truly as a purveyor of false information. For example, here is an article I wrote on herd immunity back before full-out censorship of minority views became ubiquitous. That would have been all the way back on April 22, 2020, when I wrote an original article called, "A Simple Explanation of Herd Immunity to Defeat Covid-19."  Very  quickly, the google algorithms and human drones that work for google deemed the article to be a danger to community standards and a source of false news. The powers-that-be did not want ordinary people to know about the concept of herd immunity to defeat covid-19. They slapped this disclaimer at the top of my blog article: 

"Fact check: Herd immunity would not prevent corona virus from spreading completely -- News The Palm Beach Post."

The reason the powers-that-be, whoever the heck they are, do not want you to know about herd immunity, is because they are pushing for universal vaccination, and before that happens, universal lockdowns and surrender of human rights--human rights we all took for granted as recently as February of 2020. Human rights like freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, and freedom of worship. 

But now we know we aren't even allowed freedom of thought. Freedom of thought and independent inquiry have been officially deemed to be dangerous. We might come to believe things we are not being force-fed by the mainstream media and their social media minions.

However, just this morning, the officially sanctioned news coming across the news feed on my iphone tells me it is alright to consider herd immunity again. Newsweek reports that the journal called "Science" has published an article regarding herd immunity:

Herd Immunity Threshold for COVID-19 Could Be Just 43 Percent

BY KASHMIRA GANDER ON 6/24/20 AT 5:06 AM EDT

The percentage of people in a population who need to be immune to the coronavirus to protect others, or the threshold of herd immunity, may be lower than previously thought, according to a study.

Herd immunity could potentially be achieved if 43 percent of a population is immune to the coronavirus, the authors of a paper published in the journal Science said. This is "substantially less" than the level of 60 percent given by vaccinating the population, the mathematicians from the University of Nottingham and University of Stockholm wrote.

Read my article and you will find that my original claim has finally been acknowledged to be true: there is a true alternative to social isolation and universal vaccination--herd immunity.  You are now allowed to know this--Newsweek reported it!

Please forward this blog article to your friends. The Simple Explanation blog can not be found if you don't. Thank you.

The Fall of America

an original allegorical tale by Cyd Ropp

Some people say that hindsight is 20-20. And, looking back from where they stood now, it was hard to imagine that people didn’t see this coming. But they went along with the program, good sports to the end.

And by the end, there wasn’t much left. Yes, the land was still there, but order and reason were nowhere to be found. Poverty and despair had taken their place.

It’s funny how much you can get away with if you say it’s all for your own good. Or, it’s for the good of the children. Or the grannies and the grandpas and the sick and the vulnerable. But always, always for the greater good. And it’s up to those running the show to tell us what is good.

No one could have imagined that the Fall of America took less than a month. No invading armies were required to bring the nation to its knees. No dictator. No military coup. No shots fired. Only rumors of a plague.

So when the lockdowns came, the people went along. After all, in the face of a pandemic, it seemed prudent to shutter the factories and close the schools. Somehow it seemed like a wise course of action to quit work and stay at home. Somewhere someone declared which workers were essential, and only these were allowed to receive paychecks for their labor. Those workers who were deemed non-essential were no longer invited downtown. Main Street closed. No more eating out. No drinks in the pub with friends. No trips to the gym or unnecessary medical procedures.

Easter was cancelled. Then all religious services, all over the land were banned. Indeed, gatherings of all kinds were banned. No memorials for the dead; no bouquets and blushing brides. No parades. No clubs. No social gatherings at all. For anyone.

Passage outside the home was restricted. No fresh air excursions to the park or the beach. No ball games. No playing. Social distancing became the password. Never too close to another human being. Best not pet the neighbor’s dog. Never kiss a cat.

Masks quickly became required apparel. Like a fedora in the ‘40s. Or boots in Texas. No shopping without one. No trips to the post office without the mask in place. Under the chin, over the nose, around the ears. No touching. No touching. No touching.

The people lay their rights on the altar of civic responsibility. But then they discovered that their sacrifice had been made to a false god, an idol dedicated to the emerging surveillance state. They soon discovered the terrible price of passage now required that their every movement be traced and recorded. They found the cost of their freedom came at the expense of their privacy. Still they shrugged their shoulders and obeyed.

And then the glorious day came when the promised vaccine was delivered. Essential workers were the first to be granted reprieve. Next in line were non-essential persons like ministers, teachers, and shop keepers. But while they were queuing up, the edict was amended to read that the promised vaccine was now required. Required to go back to work. Required to go back to school. Not too long after that, the edict demanded proof of vaccine to exit one’s home. Proof to go shopping. Proof to keep health insurance. Proof to cash a retirement check or receive a driver’s license.

Those who resisted vaccinations for their own good and the greater good of all were deemed socially irresponsible at first, quickly followed by pronouncements of either psychosis or criminal intent to harm others. Naturally, for their own good, those in power managed to recruit an army of red cross volunteers to canvass neighborhoods and administer shots. Uncooperative, that is to say, psychotic or criminal, citizens were next visited by less amiable government representatives armed with both pistols and needles. Resistance, as they say, was futile.

In the end, when all the smoke had cleared, the people woke up to discover that the land they loved was no longer there. America had fallen.
