Talk:Dimensions of Creation

The entirety of creation might be divided by several creations. The distinction between several creations has a descriptive role. It highlights a massive change on how creation worked before and after a distinct change.

Dimensions of the First Creation

According to the Book of Light Vol.1 , there are five dimensions in the First Creation. The dimensions are Perspective, Detail, Chance, Time and Space. Each of these dimensions emerged as a consequence of adding new monads to creation. According to the Book of Light Vol.1 , Monads are intensifications of consciousness. Undifferentiated consciousness is intensified so much, that a monad is "born" by virtue of the difference in intensity between the monadic point and the surrounding consciousness, leading to self-awareness of the monadic point. Monads are all comprised of consciousness, hence, they all have the same basic traits. These "traits" may be further divided by primary and secondary facets. The primary facets of consciousness being Bliss, Awareness, Imagination and Power. These facets are substantial, meaning that they cannot be removed, secluded, or even minimized from consciousness or vice versa. Monads also have secondary facets, which emerge after the monad is instantiated. Monads have Intent, Thought, [[Self Awareness], Compassion and are connected with each other. After instantiation, monads gain control over creation as co-creators of the entirety of creation. Having self awareness, thoughts, intent, compassion and connection, they may control the undifferentiated consciousness - henceforth mana - which in turn abides by their wishes due to its own primary properties. This process is captured by the phrase As above in consciousness, so below in matter. The process of the creation of Monads hints towards the idea that Consciousness cannot be created nor destroyed, but merely coagulated or dilluted.

Perspective

Perspective is the first dimension which emerged. According to the Book of Light Vol.1 the first new batch of monads was comprised of two new monads. Before the first two new monads have been created, the initial Monad had only one position/perspective from which to play with creation. After the two monads have been instantiated, by virtue of their connection with the initial Monad, different perspectives on creation arose. This was a fundamental change for many reasons. First of all, the monads were connected and hence, they were able to enjoy creation from different perspectives. Furthermore, they were all created equally. Having the same traits, they were equally able to control creation, which turned the game of creation into a collective business.--Aim (talk) 19:06, 10 June 2017 (UTC)

Detail

With the next batch of new monads, the dimension of detail emerged. With each new wave of monadic intensifications, the added amount of monads increased. Assuming that this lead to a smaller "amount" of consciousness for each monad, it follows that the amount of awareness was smaller, which meant that the perceptions of the new batch couldn't encompass the entirety of creation at once - something the initial Monad could do. This means that the new monads could play with only a portion of the entirety of creation in the same instant. Due to the connection between the Monad and the new monads, the dimension of detail has emerged, because now it was possible to percieve different portions of creation (detail) additionally to percieving creation from different positions (perspective). From a human's perspective this is easily understood: direct your attention towards something, and notice how other information are fading out. The more you focus on some part of creation, the more detail is percieved, but at the cost of losing sight of the bigger picture. Gazing upon a beautifull scenery in nature, say a forest, creates the opposite effect: we relax our attention, our awareness is not focused, we might feel the grandeur of it, but we lose track of the details.

Note: The amount of awareness is unchanged. It is merely focused on one spot of creation (attention), or relaxed, apprehending the big picture. This is absolutely imperative, because awareness is a primary trait of consciousness. Being a primary trait, it cannot just dissappear, it is substantial to it. The primary traits of consciousness are undivisible from itself. Due to this circumstance, if the amount of total awareness would fluctuate, then the amount of consciousness comprising the monad would have to do so, too. This, however, is untenable due to 1) the process of instantiation of a monad is singular in nature, and 2) consciousness would fluctuate depending on the portion of creation apprehended by the monad, nullifying the possibility of this dimension (and the possibility of the others, too). --Aim (talk) 19:38, 12 June 2017 (UTC)

The idea that primary traits are substantial for consciousness and hence cannot be secluded (or even minimized) from it is a core idea for this and all subsequent dimensions, as well. To solve the problem of Ennui, God created different perspectives, but to add some spice to it, he created them with different amounts of consciousness. Here is why: If one apprehends everything that exists at once, a new perspective which has the same ability would be almost the same as the previous perspective (see BOLVI). It wouldn't change jack. Hence, a perspective which truly changes something, would need to have a different bulk awareness. As mentioned, awareness is a primary trait of consciousness. Consequently, the only method of changing the bulk apprehension/bulk awareness of a monad is by lowering it.(The only way to change something when you are at the maximum is to take less of it.) This can be only made by using less undifferentiated consciousness for every monadic intensification. This means that less undifferentiated consciousness was intensified for the formation of a Monad in later instantiations than in earlier ones. The tree of lights is a wonderfull visual representation of this train of thoughts.

This idea is important, because it lays the basis for the problem of rarified mana, which creates the next three dimensions. See especially the sections on Time and Space.

Chance

Creation follows certain rules. Rules create order. One of the "rules" of creation is that the wishes of the monads are granted instantly and literally. Another one is that mana follows the intent of monads. If two monads wish for mutually incompatible outcomes, then the rule of consciousness following intent is not feasible anymore, because the consciousness can't instantiate into both wishes at the same instant. This creates a lack of rule, hence a lack of order. A lack of order/rule is the deffinition of chance. The outcome of part of the creation is thus random.

Notes:

The existence of chance implies that the phrase as above in consciousness,so below in matter is true. Chance is the manifestation of the exception of this rule, thereby indirectly confirming it.

It is also noteworthy that already at this level the effect of rarified undifferentiated consciousness was noticeable. This effect happens due to a change in proportion between mana and the amount of monads. With each new instantiation, more monads were created. But they were not created out of thin air, they were created from the already existing undifferentiated consciousness/mana by intensifying it to the point of self-awareness. Assuming that the total amount of consciousness in creation doesn't change, with every new batch, the ratio between the mana (which is instantiating the wishes of the monads) and the monads gets less and less. The amount of mana needed for the creation of the new monad was now not available anymore for the fulfilment of the wishes of the existing monads, thereby creating a shortage of mana, implicitly creating the dimensions. Chance wouldn't be noticeable, if this shortage was missing. See Effects and Perception for more details.--Aim (talk) 19:06, 10 June 2017 (UTC)

PLEASE NOTE: These thoughts are potentially NOT in conformity with the content of the Book of Light Vol.1, therefore be cautious. In the BOLVI, it says that consciousness is without limits for instance. However, depending on how we interpret that sentence, these thoughts could still be in accord with the BOLVI. Simply interpret "without limit" as "there is nothing beyond" or "all-encompassing". I feel that we lack the proper understanding of infinity and nothingness to properly conceptualize what exactly is meant by "without limits". For instance, is infinity a constant? If yes, then the above said makes sense.

Moreover, the idea that god would "lack" something so principal like mana is questionable, too. However, one could argue that by increasing the number of monads, the "lack" of undifferentiated consciousness came about twofold: first, because of the rise in monads, leading to a rise in the amount of wishes. Second, because monads are made out of comprimated mana, making that mana not available anymore. This argumentation works only under the assumption that the sum-total of the total consciousness is constant. (hence it needs the same assumption as above)--Aim (talk) 10:00, 12 June 2017 (UTC)

Time

As the amount of monadic intensifications got higher, the amount of wishes respective to the amount of available mana rose, leading to the fact that the mana/ mist particles could not adher to the wishes of all monads instantaneously. Hence, creating the dimension of time/duration. Imagine a field of particles which may change their colours according to your wishes. As long as you and your neighbour wish for the same colour there is no problem, but as soon as there is a discrepancy in your wishes the particles will have to decide on the colour. As mentioned, the incompatibility of two wishes is solved by chance. Say that your wish is granted "first" (by chance), then duration is the "time" you use those specific particles for yourself. Conversely, time may be also defined by the duration a specific wish of yours is not being instantiated, because the mist particle is used by another monad.

Notes:

Time may be only percieved if the amount of mana is low enough so that two monads use the same mist-particle for different wishes. Say one monad wants a castle, the other a car. The castle needs lots of particles to achieve, so that monad will draw a big amount of particles for its endeavour, colouring the mist particles in the vicinity of another monad, which happens to use those mist particles, too, thereby creating the effect of duration.--Aim (talk) 19:06, 10 June 2017 (UTC)

Given an average constant (slight) lack of mana, the dimension of time could be experienced constantly. Imagine that every endeavour has its "mana-costs." Say a castle needs 1050 mana to create, while a shiny truck needs 270. In total, the two wishes cost 1320 mana. Say that the average mana/monad is 650, then our two monads are 20 mana short. This 20 mana is the equivalent of time. It represents the time needed for the fabric of consciousness to release the missing 20 mana from other projects of monads. Time might be meassured in delta mana, which is why time is not linear. It is a function of the 1)amount of wishes , 2) intricacy/"costs" of those wishes, 3) (later: spatial distribution and mana-efficiency-methods) related to the total amount of mana. If for instance a huuuuge Plan is worked out, like the one we are in right now, and further the size of the project exceeds the average amount of mana/monad per participating monad, then the duration of the instantiation of the endeavour may take "long". Please note that we are not yet in the 3D realm, hence, time is not linear. The best way to conceptualize this is probably by the known effect of "flow". --Aim (talk) 10:33, 12 June 2017 (UTC)

Space

With the subsequent instantiation of monads the dimension of space could be perceived. It got obvious that each monad has a spatial relationship to each other. This occurs due to the heightened susceptibility of monads to the mechanics of instantion of contradictory wishes. The spatial relationship is defined by the relationship of a monad to the amount of mist particles/mana it can use without interfering with the wishes of another monad. After the instantiation of the new batch, the amount of monads is constant, and so is the amount of mana/mist particle. The quotient between the mana and the amount of monads renders an average for the mana each monad may safely use without interference. If we imagine the field of mist particles again, then the position of monads is distributed isotropically, assuming the mist to be homogenous and isotropic. Each monad then has a spatial portion of the homogenous mist it may colour without interfering with another monad's creations. The usage of portions of mist in the vicinity of another monad creates the realization of spacial order.

To make creation just, it is possible to use the mana "in the vicinity" of another monad, but with less force. Using the mathematical description of power in the book of light power =1/r², it is possible to depict a "priority distribution" of the mana. This can be subsequently defined as force. Hence: Force is the access of a monad to mana. The more force a monad has, the more mana is abiding by its wishes, instantiating whatever it wishes instantly and literally.

Notes:

It is totally logical that the amount of dimensions had to stop, because the available mana got more and more rarified with every new batch of monads.

IN PROGRESS: {Additionally, assuming that with every new batch, God wanted a new perspective, and a new perspective coincidates with seing more detail, which is achieved by a smaller amount of bulk awareness, hence a smaller amount of consciousness (due to primary facet), it follows that at some point the instantiations would reach a limit, where self-awareness would occur very inefficiently, because of an insufficient amount of mana used. We could picture this similar to the formation of a black hole. In order for a black hole to manifest its "singularity" ( we can't know what is inside, because not even light is able to escape from it, hence we have no information whatsoever beyond the event horizon , which is why it is often called a singularity) it needs a certain amount of mass per volume. The radius of the event horizon to the center of the black hole may be calculated and is called "Schwarzschildradius". Now even our earth, even an apple, yes even an atom might be compressed into a black hole. We simply need the force to do it.(i'm not 100%ly sure about the atom though :P - the volume needed for this might undersize the minimal space conceivable in the universe.) One only needs to raise the mass/volume past a certain critical point, where the gravitational force exerted on a point on the surface with a certain distance from the center (the schwarzschildradius) exceeds the escape speed/parabolic velocity. This sounds horrendously complicated, so i'll just come to the point: In theory, it is possible to comprimate ever smaller amounts of matter(or consciousness) into black holes (into self-aware identities), but a small problem occurs along the way. The "activity range" of a black hole ( the new monad) is incredibly small. If we comprimated our planet into a black hole, it would have the size of an apple ( if i remember correctly). (possibly a problem of force at the moment of creation. too many monads, too much force needed. force should be proportional to consciousness. Homogenity of mana. - I don't understand yet fully. But there are additional reasons for not going on with this. Also why Daath occured. It probably had to do with the amount of consciousness of the new monads. The reason for the brachial amount of new monads lies withhin these sentences. Later, in the subsequent creations, solutions are found for the problem of rarified undifferentiated consciousness. The creation of the universe (super-rarified realms) is one solution. It is a brilliant solution for solving the problem of rarified undif. consciousness without losing the intensity of the game.}

Furthermore, this conceptualization might explain why consciousness is organized the way it is. Consciousness organizes as souls, angelic realms etc. to minimize the potential of differing wishes, in order to ameliorate the problem of lack of mana per capita. If souls are organized in a fashion where souls with similar interests flock together, they may use the same mana without interfering with the wishes of each other.--Aim (talk) 19:06, 10 June 2017 (UTC)

Implications of the Dimensions

There are a number of conclusions one might extract from the dimensions concerning the way Creation works.--Aim (talk) 19:06, 10 June 2017 (UTC)

Effects and Perception

The effects of certain phenomena were so small that the monads weren't able to notice them. They were not perceivable by them. Hence, the dimension of chance, time, space etc. existed from the start, implicit in the idea of monadic intensification, but was not perceivable to the monads untill sufficient monads were created in order for the effect to take place on greater scales. With each new batch, a new dimension merely "popped into existence" by suddenly getting aware of the specific dimension. A similar idea is adopted by [1] Berkeley, an English philosopher from the 17th century. His trademark statement was "esse est percipere". Being means being pervieved.

This also explains the term "unfolding". All dimensions have always been implicit following the initial inspiration, it was only a matter of getting aware of them.

This also intimates why souls are explorative by nature. In order to get aware of something, the necessity of exploration is due.--Aim (talk) 19:06, 10 June 2017 (UTC)

Rules of Creation

Different "rules" of creation might be derived from the above said.

The Conservation of Consciousness

It is worth stressing that the amount of awareness any given monad posseses does not change, as this would mean that the amount of consciousness would have to change too. This would mean that the amount of consciousness would rise or sink depending on the attempt to percieve different portions of creation, which is obviously not tenable. This seems to be consistent with the idea that consciousness cannot be created nor destroyed - but "merely" coagulated to the point of self-awareness. Since awareness is a primary trait of differentiated/monadic consciousness, and consciousness can't be created nor destroyed, it follows that the amount of awareness is also constant. Hence, the amount of available awareness can't fluctuate, it can merely be focused via attention or dilluted by lack of attention. By extrapolation one could argue that the total amount of consciousness (differentiated + undifferentiated) is constant. It seems plausible that this is one of the most basic rules of the entirety of creation. This reflects nicely in the law of energy conservation, which is a premise our contemporary physics is based upon. This rule (if true) is also connected to the creation of several dimensions. It is reflected in the fact that dimensions are created. Dimensions couldn't be created if this basic trait of the fabric of consciousness would be violated.

Perspective needs constant awareness - hence constant consciousness - for if it was missing, then the "position" of creation would be missing, avoiding the possibility of a different position, leading to no perspective at all.

Detail needs a constant amount of awareness, for if it was missing, then there wouldn't be different monads with different amount of consciousness leading to the apprehension of different portions of creation.

The emergence of time and space wouldn't occur, because the problem of rarified undifferentiated consciousness would be missing --> mist in the room gets more and more dilluted. Many points of awareness wish this and that, the reacting mist can't follow all wishes instantly. Hence, the dimensions of chance, time and space are created.

Wishes now may have the dimension of duration, which is the "time" taken for the mist in the room to form according to the wishes of the specific monad. This is why the more monads wish the same things, the faster the wish is instantiated: More monads wishing the same thing means lack of discrepancy in the wishes of the monads for the mana, hence, lack of contradiction. The wishes may be instantiated instantly, because the mana doesn't have to decide on which wish to instantiate. Time has been defined as an effect tacking place due to a lack of mana and differing wishes.

Note: The conservation of consciousness does not work for the consciousness of incarnated consciousness, which is (on this earth untill now) only a fraction of the monadic consciousness. The awareness withhin the PU is fluctuating constantly due to the dependency on external and internal criteria.]--Aim (talk) 19:03, 10 June 2017 (UTC)

Harmony&Order

In the following, short suggestions are offered as of why these dimensions might have appeared. Furthermore, it is attempted to link several key notions of the LP, while giving additional explanations on different topics. This includes:

- facets of consciousness. Primary traits are substantial, they can't be isolated from consciousness nor vice versa.

- conservation of consciousness. Consciousness can't be created nor destroyed, only intensified or dilluted.

- the problem of rarified mana. This builds the link between the emergence of dimensions, the facets of consciousness, the conservation of consciousness, the form of the tree of lights.

- as above in consciousness, so bellow in matter. How does undifferentiated consciousness act if this rule cannot be conformed with? A short explanation is offered.

- conceptualizations on space and time. How can space and time be conceptualized from the 1FV? How is it possible to create a new perspective, if there is no space to put a new monad into? Will they not look from exactly the same perspective if merely the amount of consciousness is reduced, but the "position" is the same? What exactly is duration? What is the link between duration and mana? Some explanations are attempted.

- force. A possible link between force, mana and space is attempted.

- soon to come: as above in consciousness, harmony and order, a more detailed and succint explanation on the dimension of space. --Aim (talk) 12:14, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
