Umbilical Cord:

"The child in the womb is linearly connected to the mother by the umbilical cord. Exiting from the womb, the child graduates from the umbilical, linear dependency and goes into individual orbit. The umbilical cord becomes obsolete. There was nothing wrong with it. It was vital. But now it is obsolete. ..."

Umbilical Cord

← Umbilical Cord | Umbilical Cord →


RBF Definitions

"The umbilical cord is a linear plug-in. There is nothing wrong with it as a mechanism. But when you are born you go into orbit and the umbilical cord becomes obsolete.

"In the end we may find that the Einstein's Special Theory is special case, radial, and that his General Theory is orbital. The Special Theory is the umbilical cord, the conceptional and locally dependent gestational phase. The General Theory is the independently orbiting phase now released to only cosmical coordinates."

Uncertainty Principle:

"The principle of uncertainty is the degree of indeterminateness in the possible present knowledge of the simultaneous values of various qualities with which the quantum theory deals. It does not restrict the exactness of position measurement alone or velocity measurement alone; the velocity known while the position unknown. Every subsequent observation of the position will alter the momentum by an unknown and indeterminable amount."

"When we have found all the relationships between the number of items of our consideration we have what we speak of as understanding. The word 'consider' derives from the Latin words for 'together' and 'stars.' When we understand, we have all the fundamental connections between the star events of our consideration. When n stands for the number of stars or items of consideration, the number of connections necessary to understanding is always n² - n.

Index Entry

Despite intermittent submissiveness to runaway momentums of residual ignorance, man guards most dearly and secretly his freedom of thought and initiative. Therefrom emanates the social-industrial relay, from self-starters to group starters.

"Out of this freedom alone understanding may be generated. Man recognizes understanding as an activated circuit of mutual comprehension by individual minds. Understanding must be plural. However, because individual experience is unique, understanding can be developed only in principle out of the compounding significance of plurality of experience. Thus, man knows that the voluntary interactions of understanding dealing in fundamental principles will always master involuntary mass actions, and that individual freedom ever anticipates and ultimately masters mutual emergency.".

Unit:

"Unit means system integrity. Organic means regenerative system integrity. As minimum or prime systems consist of four event foci and their always and only coexisting fourness of triangularly defined planar facets, and sixness of wavilinearly defined minimum set of unique componentation relatedness, unity is inherently plural. Unity is plural. A system is a local phenomenon in the Universe. Each of the conceivable or imaginable awareness or thinkability entities or phenomena inducing or producing onenesses of twonesses are subvisible and potentially further subdivisible, or as-yet unresolved, ergo unrecognized systems. Functions always and only co-occur as subsystem relativistics, characteristics, inherencies, and proclivities. Functions occur only as parts of systems. The Universe is constituted of a complex plurality of nonsimultaneous and only partially overlappingly occurring systems, not one system."

"It is more and more in evidence that the United States is not a nation, and we talk very improperly of it as a nation. It is the beginning of a very important phase of cross-breeding world man. Here is cross-breeding world man on this continent, his young life having been very negative of regarding an older world, but not knowing just what ought to take its place; but now really finding out what can be done. ... There's no question about it: this young world is going to move forward, and going to move forward very powerfully everywhere, with good working information, to work for what is truly constructive. So that's what you're witnessing."

United States: One of the Most Difficult Sovereignty to

Break Up:

"I actually feel very sorry for the politicians and pay very

little attention to them. I am impressed that when I talk

to the Russians, they said to me When President Johnson was in,

Johnson is really nearer to our kind of man but there's no

use in our meeting with him because any agreement we made with

Johnson, the Russians would never ratify. We can only deal

with Republicans if we're going to have anything that will stick.

I think this is very much the viewpoint of China and Russia;

they think there's no use in dealing with people who are in

anyway liberal. . . And I'm convinced that all the sovereign-

ties will have to go! That's clear. We will perish. They

were absolutely valid in terms of my roots here, projecting

our ignorance. But in terms of our discovering that the

metals are not part of the roots; they are very unevenly

this new game it has to be World Game. All the boundaries

have to go. Therefore, I simply say, one of the most difficult

of the great sovereignty to break up is the United States.

misconception. It calls itself a nation. A nation is a group"

One of the Most Difficult Sovereignties to Break Up:

"Of human beings who have been isolated from other human beings for thousands of years and who have developed great inbreeding local characteristics. We are the most crossbreeding phase of world man. We are world man. To call ourselves a nation, nothing could be more nonsense. At any rate, the most difficult of the situations to get corrected is the American political situation because America is moving and becoming world man. Nobody is staying around to watch the politicians. The politicians are getting more and more decentralized, where nobody locally knows what they're doing. . . In order to be able to break up American sovereignty, I think Mr. Nixon is much more capable than Mr. McGovern would be. . . Nixon's re-election might serve history. I feel sorry for Richard Nixon. I feel sorry for all those people. Because I feel he's one of those little. . . rather a small man. Rather preoccupied with Mr. Nixon and he just wants to win anything, just as long as he wins. I feel that his lack of real vision means that the United States will come apart more rapidly. That's all. It has to go. Sovereignty has to go."

Universal Integrity: Second-power Congruence of Gravitational & Radiational Constants:

"Second-power Congruence of Gravitational and Radiational Constants: The relative mass-energy content magnitude of a polyhedral system is arrived at by multiplying the primitive, frequency-zero, a-priori-state volume (relative to the tetrahedron-equals-one) of the geometric, concentric, structural system's hierarchy, by the second power of the (both minimum and maximum) limit linear velocity of all classes of radiation when unfettered in a vacuum; i.e., multiplying initial volume by the terminal rate at which a spherical wave's outermost, unique-event-distinguishability progressively and omniexpansively occurs, as expressed in terms of the second power of relative frequency of modular subdivisions of its initially-occurring, polyhedral system's radius; ergo as manifest in Einstein's equation E = Mc².

"Energy equals a given mass with its relative mass-energy compactedness tighteningly modified by the velocity of energy-as-radiation intertransformability potential (not just linearly, but omnidirectionally); ergo as a potentially ever-expansively enlarging spherical wave's outermost-event, one-radial-wavelength-deep surface; ergo second power of system frequency (because wave surfaces grow omni-outwardly as of the second power of the radial, linear frequency) rate of gain."

Universal Integrity: Second Power Congruence of Gravitational and Radiational Constants:

"Finding that a system is growing around a nucleus in terms of a second power is what Einstein wrote when he wrote his equation, E = Mc². Energy, he said, equals a given mass, its relative tightness as modified by the velocity of energy as radiation, not just linearly but omnidirectionally-- by a wave which would be second power. His waves are growing outwardly of second power. These little points and dots will be identified as an energy phenomena of the quantum wave, really as photons. You have units of photons and you have the numbers for any given wave, and you begin to get any given relative concentration of given masses. With unit energy, you have much more of it packed up in tighter packages in small frequency against the large frequency.

"Now we have another kind of second-power relationship which has always been very impressive when you think about it. The word second power now gives you something to do with radials and surfaces. Newton discovered, regarding gravity, a certain relationship of masses and unfortunately his relationship is stated in a negative way. He talks about an inverse ratio. The word inverse ratio makes it very difficult conceptually. You talk about it and it is

Universal Integrity: Second-power Congruence of Gravitational and Radiational Constants

"not what it is but something else, the opposite of what you say it is. It could have been stated that the gravitational relationships are in the terms of the second power of the relative distance between the given masses, as stated in the terms of the radius of one of the masses. That is the way you could say it today. We find that the gravitational law is in the terms of the second power of radius and terms are just converting Einstein's mass phenomena into terms of radius also-- which is the way he did it. We would be able then to know where relative mass was-- how much energy, how many quantum were in it; and you would then suddenly see the gravitational state in terms of the second power, and this relative concentration of the masses.

"The gravitational one, then, is the contractive, quantitative one of second power of relative masses stated in quanta or photons, and the other one is the Einsteinian one, which is the radiation of the other condition.

"You have two main conditions of energy: energy divergent and energy convergent, and we find both of them in the second power. We suddenly find this very neat relationship. It seemed very"

"The vector equilibrium and the icosahedron are the same twenty-ness. But the icosahedron is either a positive or a negative phase of the pulsatingly alternating first-degree structural self-stabilization in the asymmetric form of the vector equilibrium whose alternating pulsations are propagated by the eternally opposed radiant-attractive inter-self-transformable potential of ideally conceptual unity of Universe.

"The icosahedral phase of self-structuring is identifiable uniquely with the electron whose mass relationship to the proton is as 1/1851, whereas the icosahedron's volume is to the vector equilibrium's volume as 20/18.51. This difference is to be identified with the ratio-ing of the electromagnetic constant to the gravitational constant.

"The number of icosahedral electrons always are equal in number to the protons which are in the vector equilibrium's idealized form of the same surface layer phenomenon."

Index Entry

The icosahedron manifests only the external layer of omni-intertriangulated closest packing of spherically conformed energy quanta and the vector equilibrium is closest nucleated, omni-intertriangulated, radial packing-- i.e., in mass-attractive concentrations.

While the icosahedron's electrons display the same surface number of spherically conformed quanta, the icosahedron's surface array is omnitriangulated while the vector equilibrium's surface is arrayed two-fifths in triangulation and three-fifths in open, unstable square tangency. As spherical agglomerates decrease in radius, as for instance does the vector equilibrium contract to the icosahedral phase, their sphere centers approach one another and Newton's mass-attraction law, which shows a second-power gain as the proximities are halved in distance, imposes an intercoherence condition whereby as their overall system radius decreases, their circumferential inter-mass-attraction increases proportionately.

Index Entry

Tetrahedron has the extraordinary capability of remaining symmetrically coordinate and entertaining 15 pairs of completely disparate rates of change of three different classes of energy behaviors in respect to the rest of Universe and not changing its size. As such, it becomes a universal joint to couple disparate actions in Universe. So we should not be surprised at all to find nature using such a facility and moving around Universe to accommodate all kinds of local transactions, such as coordination in the organic chemistry or in the metals. The symmetry, the fifteeness, the sixness, the fourness, and the threeness are all constants. This induced 'motion,' or position displacement, may explain all apparent motion of Universe. The fifteeness is unique to the icosahedron and probably valves the 15 great circles of the icosahedron.

Universal Requirements of a Dwelling Advantage:

"The star radiations impinging upon us regenerate all life. Even as children, we feel intuitively the mysterious import of the stars; but have no knowledge whatsoever of the technological complexities by which this regeneration is accomplished. Most people live out their lives thinking of the stars only as an aesthetic and not realistically-relevant, decorative feature. 'Stargazers are nuts.' Each human as a metaphysical complex of events, recalls deduced principles and speculative assumption. Events impinge upon individuals from both outside and inside themselves. Those of internal microcosmic origin usually impinge subconsciously. Most of those of external macrocosmic origin also impinge subconsciously.

"The environmental events come in all kinds of frequencies and magnitudes-- 99 percent are sensorially unapprehendable by humans. Comprehensive anticipatory design scientists, dealing on behalf of their fellow humans, must cope effectively with all these frequencies visible and invisible.

"Nature has a very basic pattern governing frequencies and energy event magnitudes. 'The biggest energy events occur least'

"frequently and the smallest energy events most frequently. There are frequently enormous amounts of mosquitoes to be dealt with and very infrequent hurricanes. This frequency-magnitude relationship provides the scientific basis for establishing anticipatory design requirements. It is also fundamental that the design scientist must accomplish his task without diminishing individual human freedoms and contrariwise must reduce prevalent restraints upon humans, while providing each individual's gains without doing so at the expense of any other individual. In 1930, I published my 'Universal Requirements of Human Dwellings' which is predicated upon general systems theory. Covering all the above parameters and more, it has been revised mildly and has been republished periodically since 1930. Most recently it is included in my book, 'No More Secondhand God.'

define successfully the physical universe but not the metaphysical

by virtue of the experimentally-verified discovery that energy

It is the consensus of thought of those who have proven themselves to be great scientists that 'science is the earnest attempt to set in order the facts of experience.' Holding within their definition, we define Universe as: the aggregate of all humanity's consciously apprehended and communicated, nonsimultaneous and only partially overlapping experiences. But all experiences are terminated, ergo, finite, An aggregatmm of finites is finite. Our Universe as defined is finite but nonsimultaneously conceptual. The single-frame picture of a caterpillar does not foretell its transformation into a butterfly. Nor does one picture of a butterfly tell the viewer that the butterfly can fly.

"In other words universe is the minimum perpetual motion machine. There is a minimum set of patterns that is a consequence of this set of patterns reacting with that set of patterns. In order to have a monkey wrench you also have got to have a store, and in order to have a store you have to have other things. You have to have all the great complex of events and we get then to a minimum set of complementary events where the system then regenerates itself and we come to what we might call universe. It is interesting then to discover that this tends to be a clearly defined inventory of relative abundance of the various chemical element patterns in the universe so that you need then a great deal of the pattern hydrogen and you don't need so much of the pattern uranium."

I learned many years later that the Nobel physicist Percival Bridgman had identified this same rule adopted by Einstein as 'operational procedure', subsequently a much abused phrase. My answer (or discard of the word 'Universe' as a communication tool) was operationally inherent: 'Universe is the aggregate of all consciously apprehended and communicated (to self or relayed to others) experience of man.' If my finite answer holds against all specific experience challenges as being comprehensively anticipatory and adequate, the Universe is finite, and all its components definable.

The local exportings appear to be dissynchronous only when viewed from too short a time span to permit the tuned-in occurrence of the next synchronous moment of the aeons-apart frequencies often involved in celestial electromagnetics."

All the synergetic metaphysical consists of two phases: (1) subjective information acquisition by pure science exploration, and (2) objectively employed information by applied science invention.

The picture is of Universe as a kaleidoscope of sum-total symmetry only, the relative aspects of which may be dynamically and infinitely reordered without exemption of, or addition to, the component totality. Every shift (in the energy balance accomplished by man at Earth's crust) affects all Universe.... It is an astronomical kaleidoscope-- the little fellow is shaking-- and from within.

There are 40 million engineers and scientists of our planet, which seems like a lot. That ought to take care of us. But they are only one percent of humanity. We now have four billion people--99 percent of humanity--who don't understand what science and technology are doing. And for a very simple reason; because they don't understand where science and technology are at. Humanity in general doesn't know that all the science and technology are finding out is that the Universe is the most incredible technology.

Just think of how your ears--now while I'm making these whirring and stirring sounds--and your hearing is getting into some kind of coincidence with some of your memory call-ups, the most incredible call-ups.

I've been here for almost 82 years and this stuff is still working.... None of you are conscious of pumping your blood through your veins; none of you are conscious of pushing your hair out through your head, and you don't even know why you're making hair; You don't even know why you have it. You are organically, 99.99 percent incredibly beautiful automation.

Instead of giving degrees for increasingly advanced masteries and philosophies of special inquiry, we might start a true University literally seeking 'verse' (towards) the complex 'uni' in which our degrees are given for the ability to get back into the fundamentals with our resources of experience. The most valuable degree would be that which is given to those who can carry back the wealth of experience into the unfractured and comprehensive clairvoyance of treatment of the four-year-old. The whole of Universe is the minimum consideration and the relationship of its regenerative subsystem functionings are alone elementary.

"... What is going on with the cities, all the physical has gone out, the metaphysical coming in-- it is not just exchanging of goods, as for instance, the mammoth stores beginning to deploy also, to get where there could be some good parking by going out of town to the new shopping centers, leaving a downtown hole. Into that center must come the educational centers. This is what is happening in New York City, for instance. New York City is becoming a vast university, where Columbia owns all of Radio City-- it owns much of that part of the real estate of New York. Then New York University owns all Washington Square and going south of that. We simply find New York tending to become a big dormitory University, though it has different names, this is it. And much of this University is not the enrolled student, but just the adult or even the young coming in to find out what it is all about, to have some experiences. There is no question about the major part of our education being something that occurs outside of the organized educational facilities."

"Nature is all that we think we do know plus all that we obviously don't know. That there is an a priori unknown is proven by the successive revelations of additional generalized principles implicit in Universe, knowledge of which is only discovered by intuition and mind as being an eternally operative relationship manifest by the oft-reconsidered complex of information-generating experiences on recallable inventory in the brain's neuron bank. All that is known has always emanated from the unknown. Q.E.D: Experientially!

"Human history has witnessed a dramatic degree of conversion of 'Don't Know' to 'Do Know' But all the 'Do Know' harvest ever multiplies the inventory of obviously a priori 'Will Never Knows' because inherently unknowable. The more we know, the more mysterious it becomes that we can and do know-- aught. The a priori characteristic of the entirely mysteriously-occasioned life is awareness-- which develops only to how little we know."

Index Entry

It takes just ten triple-bonded tetrahedra to make a helix cycle, which is a molecular compounding characteristic of the Watson-Crick model of the DNA. When we address two or more positive (or two or more negative) tetrahelixes together, the positives nestle their angling forms into one another (as do the negatives nestle into one another's forms). When so nestled, the tetrahedra are grouped in local clusters of five tetrahedra around a transverse axis in the tetrahelix nestling columns. Because the dihedral angles of five tetrahedra are 7° 20' short of 360°, this 7° 20' is sprung-closed by the helix structures' spring contraction. This backed-up spring tries constantly to unzip one nestling tetrahedron from the other, or others, of which it is a true replica. These are direct (theoretical) explanations of otherwise as yet unexplained behavior of the of the DNA.

Index Entry

Tetrahelix:

"We see three such columns [tetrahelixes] and we see they tend to nest into one another. If you make three of them they do nest very neatly, but when they nest together they bring about a condition where around one vertex-- if they are really nested down well-- we get five tetrahedra around one common axis. We know that if we take a tetrahedron that its edge angle is 70 degrees and 32 minutes and five times that is about six degrees less than 360 degrees. In other words, five tetrahedra round a common edge axis do not close up and make 360 degrees, but when we bring them together in a helix like this-- due to the fact that the helix is a spring, the total helix as a spring will contract enough to allow these five to connect, because part of the five are in one column and part of the five in another column. The sets of springs will collapse enough; and no matter how long they are we find that these springs will collapse and let them come together. You are doing it against the spring and they are on the spring so therefore they would like to tear it apart."

Index Entry

Up and Down Sequence:

"As taught in the late twentieth century geometry commences with plane geometry. This is because geometry was conceived and methodically formulated in history during the early times when humanity envisioned the world as a mountained and valleyed island floating upon an infinitely deep watery plane which extended laterally in all horizontal directions to infinity. Above everywhere was the sky. But the experience of remotely converging lines of perspective suggested reflexively to man that an optical aberration existed whereby, though you could not see that far, all the upward bound parallel lines perpendicular to Earth must ultimately converge, as do all parallels, receding from where one stands.

"The parallel up lines were assumed to converge in Heaven-- a haven-- a sky harbor. Until the twentieth century humanity, all those separate individuals within their respective life-times, each saw less than a millionth of the total surface of our spherical space vehicle Earth. All the foregoing conceptioning is so logical that, despite theoretical knowledge to the contrary and their quick denial of such misconceptions, approximately all humans as yet 'see' the world in that image."

'Witness that they all use the words 'up' and 'down. They speak about 'Getting down to Earth,' 'the wide, wide world,' and always spell the Earth with a small 'e' because it is simply the stuff under our feet, 'down here, ' which stretches away laterally to infinity.

'It is not surprising that we continue now to start our children's geometry-- meaning world measuring-- with plane geometry. This, however, is intellectually devastating, and constitutes the parting of the ways with one road leading into the scholar's 'pure' mathematics, and the other continuing as the reality, which disagrees with all that is found by physics, mathematics, and chemistry to be the natural orderliness of Universe. The 'practical' man who was disgruntled by the awkward misconceptions of mathematics is one who is so dull as not to be bothered by the measurable discrepancies and keeps on 'brilliantly and courageously' doing all the short-sighted, expedient 'things' which, applauded by the most powerfully advantaged selfish, are so swiftly consigning man to extinction as 'unfit' for survival in the vast reality of the Universe of weightless, invisible, omni-interaccommodative generalized principles, which are'

"forever faithfully governing electromagnetic wave frequency radiating propagations and mass attraction's concentricity, much of whose integrity has become understandable by humanity's metaphysically comprehending mind.

"Foremost of the debilitating effects of predicating all the students conceptually calculatable logic upon a plane geometry foundation is the spontaneous persuasion of the reasonableness of forthright bias which it engenders. Thus, for instance, loyalty, which is powerfully one-sided, has come to be rated as a noble attribute. Loyalty can take outright lies in its stride. It thinks nothing of defending a fallacy. How does that all come about? Prove your contention. All right!

"All the entities and conceptual formulations of plane geometry commence as follows: 'A triangle is an area bound by a closed line consisting of three edges and three angles. A circle is an area bound by a closed line everywhere equidistant from a point.' Areas bound by closed lines are the essence of plane geometry. Only that which is bound by a"

"closed line is definable, valid, calculatable, and useful. Why is this so? Because the plane outside the bound area leads in all lateral directions away to infinity and, therefore, is undefinable. On the inside of the boundary line was definability, finity. On the outside was only undefinability, infinity. The 'Ins' were reliable. The 'Outs' were dangerously unpredictable.

"Only the phenomenon on one side of the line was valid. So there is your taught-in bias of all the world around's schooled society. The outlaws and the in-laws. I am okay. You? My family in; yours out. Our Town .. 'The damned foreigners,' etc. Now we at least know theoretically that both sides of the line are valid."

Up and Down Sequence:

"I have questioned many scientists and have never heard one deny that he realistically sees the Sun set, which is to say that he sees the Sun 'going down.' All scientists as yet use the words up and down. These words are now meaningless for they were invented by man to accommodate his sense of the world stretching away to infinity as a plane around him, to which he is perpendicular. Because he has thought of the world that way for two million years, he goes on cerebrating spontaneously that of course all the perpendiculars to the world plane are parallel to one another and all the parallel perpendicular lines point in two opposite directions: 'upward' or 'downward.' But all scientists agree that there are no regions of the Universe which are uniquely 'up' or 'down' and also that none of the perpendiculars to a sphere are parallel to one another.

"But, ask the scientists annoyedly, 'What else can I say?'

"The answer was found by world-around flying aviators who 'come in for a landing' and go out to fly their courses at greater altitudes in the world surrounding skyocean. In, out, and around are the words that indicate conceptually all our"

"sensing of directional behaviors of physical Universe. When these directions are modified by relative angle and frequency changes, they accurately satisfy our needs in respect to all conceptual systems of consciousness-- subjective or objective-- and all systematic considerations of experience, from instrumental probings of the atomic nucleus to celestial nebulae.

"As do the others of Spaceship Earth's involuntary and unwitting astronauts, the scientists go on speaking reflexively about 'The four corners of the Earth' and the 'wide, wide world.'

"Frequently the flight control scientists on the spherical deck of Spaceship Earth are heard to say-- on the manned and rocketed capsule television programs-- 'Well, boys, how are things up there this morning?' as the astronauts orbiting the 1,000 miles-per-minute speeding Spaceship Earth approximately every hour, pass through a spiraling series of positions, each of which eight-Earth-diameter-miles apart checkpoints are halfway around the Spaceship Earth from where the scientist is speaking, through one of those points which are in the direction of the 'upwardly' inquiring scientist's feet."

Individual survival is identifiable with the whole-- as extension or extinction. There is no good country doctor on Mars to revive those who, through mental inertia, are streamlining to extinction.
