Outline
All is energy.
Order = energy pattern, i.e., vibration, in three-dimensional space, or oscillations, in multidimensional space.
Pattern = consistent, repeating, predictable, reliable.
Organisms are ordering self-sustaining, self-replicating unities. They are of order and so can perceive and appreciate and need/desire order.
Beauty is symmetry/proportionality, indicating order. Proportionality is the sacrifice of symmetry to the necessities imposed upon an organism by cosmic flux - functionality.
Behaviour is the organic equivalent of pattern.
We often use it as a synonym and speak of a particle’s behaviour.
Patterns can organize into larger unities, reaching dimensions that can be perceived by organism using their senses.
An energy pattern’s rhythm, frequency, determines how a conscious organism interprets it as appearance.
The different kind of matter are interrelations of these different kinds of energy patterns.
Attraction/Repulsion = causality. Harmony.
Patterns can be more or less harmonious.
This determines friction, repulsion.
Chaos = energy with no pattern.
Random = inconsistent, unpredictable, non-repeating, unreliable.
An ordering organism cannot perceive what lacks a pattern.
Chaos can never be harmonious with any other kind of energy. It can never be perceived because it can never form unities.
It is always repulsive, causing friction upon order.
It remains on the infinitesimal, as background radiation, i.e., agitation, interactivity, to emerging patterns; affecting order and through this becoming apparent, through order, to an ordering, self-organizing consciousness, to the degee that it is conscious.
Given the fact that all life is a manifestation of order - ordering - order refers to physis, i.e., what man perceives…and chaos refers to metaphysis, i.e., the underlying imperceptible, yet existent.
Existence = dynamic, interactivity - Flux.
All descriptions of an absolute state are of what does not and cannot exist: immutable, indivisible, singularity; omniscience, omnipotence, whole, complete, perfect, one, final, end…
Chaos implies that existence is not entirely comprehensible - it remains unknowable, therefore omniscience and omnipotence are impossible.
All is relative: power, awareness, truth, objectivity/subjectivity, life, positive/negative, good/bad, intelligence, virility, consciousness, order/chaos, will, freedom, etc.
Chaos is this expanding field of multiplying possibilities within which order, i.e., probability, arises.
Probability is a qualification of probability; probability limits what is possible.
Life depends on limiting possibilities.
