Dear All -

the following is a welcome contribution by Jason regarding my question “What is information”….. some of you might find all this hyper-theoretical and not at all necessary for our main focus of healing people…. certainly this would be correct if we are just in the business of applying chemicals or energy for healing but in fact we want to give Information as the main factor…. therefore if you do not have an idea of “What it is you are working with” you will not be successful …. also if you do not care about this topic you do not care about how you think and make decisions in your life… before I say more … here is whatJason has to say about it (highlight in Bold by me):

My answer is information=organization is the Mysterium. The Great Mystery in Latin is called the Magnum Mysterium and is very abstract. It is fruitless in trying to define a universal definition for information because it is elusive and always changing, but we can give it a discriminating quality to express the nature of information.

Without an organized order and stable space-time structure (non-implosive and non explosive), information would be inefficient in evolution if even possible at all because then it would be truly chaotic. But that is not the case in our universe. It can be said that there really is no true chaos except unfolding order.  Therefore, all information evolves in an organized manner through changes occurring in momentum w/ the true object of Oneness.

The I’Ching is used to obtain meaningful information from straight and broken sticks in a reading. There are 64 permutations (symbols) possible with the I’Ching and this is the only number that you can use to generate one of nature’s geometric shapes – namely the 64 tetrahedron grid (coincidentally and probably the only geometric structure that is non-implosive and non-explosive in structure.) This is also the symbol of the flower of life. The broken lines of the sticks of the I’Ching are authentic because they are needed to fill the polar opposites as some of the lines intersect when creating the 64 tetrahedron grid with it. When the 64 tetrahedron grid is deconstructed back into straight sticks, you get exactly the same number of lines and equal ratios that make up the 64 hexagrams of the I’Ching. This all goes to say that information is really Organization In Formation (but in constant change). However, asking the question of why and how the I’Ching derives its meaningful answer to us is of seeking for the Mysterium (more below).

In your ‘information page’ it reads, “information is potential,” which is correct, but anything can be a potential or have any kind of permutations so this answer doesn’t go farther in giving information a discriminating quality. One can even say energy is potential, is the Tao, is God. But on your ‘information page’ it reads:

“Information is IN-FORMATION, it is that which gives form to things and events, but more than that it is/ provides the reason, the purpose, the direction what things are and what they can become, it is the plan of past, present.”

The above statement is the perfect expression of organization (order/structure/foundation/formation/in-formation). You can tinker with this expression further and call it self-organization, creative-organization, God-organization, or just a spontaneous quantum holographic fractal organization of neter (nature). Notice neter is the Greek word for nature, which sounds like neater, implying neatness and order in all of nature. The thing that gives form to things is obviously geometry/shapes, and the thing that gives form to unfolding events is obviously numbers – as in (exoteric) clock & seasonal time and (esoteric) psychological and zodiacal time. All this is really just Information/Organization in Formation. Either way, this order exists and anything that has order by definition must have some sort of plan (even if the plan has no absolute goal as in a self-creative goal). And behind a plan you obviously find purpose, reason, and direction – even if the plan itself is merely just to exist (in this case the purpose, reason, and direction could be just existence in itself). Man obsessively continues to seek after and find a purpose or reason for this ‘great plan.’ They want to find the “meaning” or “essence” of this plan. What could the purpose of this plan be? Can there be more than one main goal? Can it be reached via exercise of reason or explained at all? In philosophical jargon this great mystery is the “ground” of life. Lao Tzu described the mystery this way: “The valley spirit never dies. It is called the ‘the mysterious female.’ The gate of the mysterious female is called ‘the root of heaven and earth.’ It is there within us all the while; Draw upon it as you will, it never runs dry.” This great mystery is the order, structure, and foundation of life; it is the organization of the root of all life and it is manifested in creative holarchy and not hierarchy. It is both source and destiny. I agree with Kiran’s definition of what a mystery is (If I remember right it means something that is/remains unsolvable.) I think Kiran may have solved the riddle already. However, the discriminating quality of information is organization.

But then one asks the microcosmic question of what directs the so-called subject (person) to the object (information)? The answer is still the same as to the one posed by the macroscopic question above (as above, so below). Man is not only a spectator of information, but he is also part of it. In another words, information and man are not separate. There is no strict difference or division between apparent subjects and objects. The relationship is in fact Oneness. Thinking is of time. Being is not confined by time. Therefore information is not there to be known but to be experienced. But only a truly unique and complete individual can experience true Oneness or Wholeness. The German word for thought (denken) and thanks (danken), derive from the same root. So thinking gratitude is thinking Oneness, Existence, and the Real.

Here are my secondary qualities of each:

Informational Spirit: Oneness that has organization (which an individual can access through a process to be in a state of Wholeness*)

Informational Information: information that is self-determined yet holarchic in order that is directed by choice, whether the individual/group remains conscious or unconscious of choice. In actuality everything is really conscious.

Informational Energy: Change that has organization (Change that can have meaningful expression in transformation through organization)

Informational Matter: Momentum that has organization (and carries intentional or unintentional tendencies within the holographic blueprint)

*A real solid definition of Oneness must be explained: Oneness should in actuality be defined as a state of Wholeness or Allness experienced by a complete and unique individual, not the Oneness defined by the New-Agents, referring to a million broken shards of glasses coagulating back into one piece in Singleness. This is the path towards the New World Order. Oneness in the latter sense is merely an illusion because it does not exist in nature, but is an abstraction of man’s mind. So in this sense, Oneness is really division disguised as unity.

Kiran’s Comment :

First thank you Jason…. I thought nobody was interested in my New Year Quiz…. and lets remember this is only about stimulating further thought not about finding “Who is right” (stuckness on the informational level or in my terms – matter information -) What I have done until now was not to give an answer to “What is information” but only to give a definition “Information = Potential” … this says as little as the ”Energy = Matter” only once I have given laws of information based on this definition, in the coming weeks, we can say to some degree “That we know what is information”

When we define anything we usually take one of its quality and make it the defining/ essential/ base quality of it – nothing else. For example when I define human = conscious life-form, Woman = child bearing human, Night = Sun on the opposite site of the planet, and you can already see from these 3 examples there could be countless other definitions for the same item…… and this is the main problem of our informational world that we fight over definitions rather than trying to extract useful results from all the possible different definitions. (How many woman for example struggle a whole life with “How to define their woman-ness) … coincidently here in Thailand about half of all (Debora’s guess) man is half woman called Lady-boys…. but they do not suffer so much as other gays/ she male/ trans-gender as in other countries as it is an accepted 3rd gender :

Lady boys in Thailand

You can see if such a very simple definition of male and female creates so much differences in opinion how much more for less obvious qualities as consciousness or information. One of the main blocks in understanding is the misconception that if we only think long enough we will get to the essence/ the real answer/ reality/ truth – while not understanding that we can only make definitions and derived from that can come to useful extrapolations based on  these base- definitions.

These base-definitions are what rules our life and thinking and to the degree we are stuck to one or another definition we will suffer its interpretation. The way out is again to be in a DLE in relation to definitions “Certainly to have working definitions (Equilibrium-factor) but at the same time to be able to change it depending on circumstances (Lability-relationship)

Organization that Jason suggested as a definition of Information is just another quality of Information like Meaning, Purpose, Content, Substance, Connections and coutless others that one could use as the defining quality of information…. almost all Philosophers do not realize the meaninglessness of just taking one Definition as more real than another and can spend a whole life-time on explaining the superiority of one definition over all others…. what a wast of time.

The reason why I see it as more benefitial (and I have to prove this in the coming month) to define Information = Potential is because we know many relationships of POTENTIAL with the quantitative precision of modern science which we do not have for the concept of ORGANIZATION …. and this happens most of the time in our life and philosophy that we define/ explain/ think-to-explain one word with another one which are equally obscure . For example to define Human = conscious-being does not help us anything as we know as little what is consciousness as we know what it means to be human.

But we know a lot about the concept of  POTENTIAL in physics as I will explain in the next posts so it is useful as you will see to define Information = Potential. And we know a lot about what CHANGE means in physics … (please re-read the comment of Willy about Lucians post on Information  and its relationship to differential equations  here http://www.informationenergymedicine-academy.com/lucian-on-“the-role-of-information”/#comments ) so that also the definition ENERGY = CHANGE makes a lot of useful implications possible……. and certainly we know thousands of examples of INERTIA in all areas of life that the definition of MATTER = INERTIA makes a lot of sense.

THIS TOPIC how to definitions control our informational life will be another key topic of the new science of information. I will show how Definitions form what I want to call the INFORMATIONAL COORDINATE SYSTEMS of our life

Summary: Development of the idea & symbol of the Quadtrinity. / Definition of the 4 Elements/ The nature of hologram  to combine symbolically diversity in unity

Purpose : To create a base coordinate system that allows to organize concepts like matter, energy, information, awareness, emotion, thought, spiritual practice and of course the various forms of illness in a single system

Dear friends

I feel fortunate that it is just this turn of the year that I have the impulse to make an idea public that has been many years in the making.

As many before me I felt the need to put the “All and everything” that is our world and experience in  a single system of thought and possibly even in a single symbol.

A symbol is the stronger the more complete and simple it is at the same time. As I have explained in many of my seminars the cross, star of david, yin-yang, moon and star, the caduceus and the swastika are the most profound and powerful of these symbols as they are representing the most basic informational quality which is Polarity, they are dyads and thus make DLE possible.

Then there are many different symbols that represent the Trinity and and any trinity is a combination of 3 Dyads.

Reality can be represented with any number of base coordinates, there is no magic “REAL” number and there is no point in asking if the alchemical system with 4 basic elements is better than that with 3 which is used for example in Ayurveda or inferior to the Chinese one that either uses 2 or 5 basic elements.

The talk about “what is real in all these systems” has always hidden the fact that none of these informational concepts is real in comparison to an actual experience of ONENESS. Informational systems are more-or-less practical and more-or-less generally applicable, but don’t get confused by applying the concept of “real”.

When the concept of “real” is used it always suggests the idea of “either-real-or-not-real” and is thus the basis for many discussions or wars that serve nobody.

As you all know, the 20^th century was based on the almost religious believe that our world consist of Energy and Matter only and in fact all was “believed” to be energy, frequency, vibration. Consciousness and thought was considered to be outside the realm of science, un-touchable, and only its effects on the energy level were eagerly examined.

From the beginning I knew this was as incomplete as the view of the middle-ages that only studied the holy trinity.

The FIRST KEY : It was a key revelation to understand that consciousness was not mind activity, in fact it was its complementary opposite just like matter and energy. Mind activity was only one very limited expression of a third Dimension which I call “information”.

The SECOND KEY : in this development was to think more deeply about what we actually mean when we talk about Matter, Energy, Information, and Consciousness. Of course we were all told it is not as simple to say Matter = Solid Stuff but it was more correct to say Matter is Energy in Motion…. but then what is ENERGY ? and here we are all left to our sensual intuition….

As you see from my QUIZ “What is energy” there was not much response …. How is this possible? As we are having Energy taking the place that once GOD took in peoples world view. Most of us simply think of energy as that which makes us move and continue, it’s what fuels us.

OR in the Wikipedia definition it is “That which gives the ability to do work”….. and I asked “Why does this contradict a major other law of physics?”

The concept of “Energy” was practically developed at the same time as the First and Second law of Thermodynamics of which the FIRST states that “The quantity of SOMETHING is conserved in all physical transformations” AND in the SECOND that “The useful amount (ability to do work) of this SOMETHING is always diminishing in  every physical transformation”. The first law is also called the “LAW of CONSERVATION” and the second the equally important “LAW of increasing ENTROPY”.

If you now replace the word SOMETHING in both above laws with the word ENERGY it is clear that the definition of ENERGY = the ability to do work would contradict one or the other, (If Energy is the ability to do work and the amount of this ability is conserved in every physical activity/ transformation a loss through increasing entropy would be a contradiction)

Here I just showed you that even the concept ENERGY that has been subject to the strictest scientific minds is very unclear even from its definition.

The THIRD KEY : was for me to find definitions for Matter, Energy, Information, Consciousness that would limit the overlap that these concepts have in our understanding and at the same time would make them more universally applicable. To  take down the imaginary boundaries that limit the use of concepts like matter and energy to that of Physics and that of Information and Consciousness to that of Religion  and Psychology.

These are the synonyms/explanations that I consider the most fitting for this expansion of meaning and purpose, while not contradicting contemporary physics :

matter = momentum

energy = change

information = ? this is the topic of my NEW YEAR QUIZ

consciousness/spirit = oneness

This  means matter has not the quality of momentum and energy not the ability to excite change but the inertia in a event is its material aspect and the change is its energetic dimension.

If we define Energy = Change both above laws of Thermodynamics are fulfilled we have just to understand that the it is not correct to equate Energy with “usable ability to do work/ transformation” as its quantity is obviously not conserved in physical processes as the Entropy increases, however the amount of Change is conserved as the hot particles still have as much change of position or kinetic-change quantity.

In addition to this we know that the Physics defined 2 basic kinds of Energy, one is the actual and the other the potential. Potential energy with this understanding is POTENTIAL CHANGE. With this terminology the 2 laws of Thermodynamics read as following :

1. The combined quantity of CHANGE and POTENTIAL CHANGE is constant in all physical and non physical  processes
2. The amount of usable Energy is decreasing in all physical processes that do not have technical means to make use of “random change”.

With this redefinitions above not only we removed present contradictions in central laws of physic but, and this was much more important to me, we can now apply the concepts of Energy and Matter to event, emotions, thoughts and every aspect of our life. AND on the other hand we are able to meaningfully apply the concepts of information  and consciousness to the realm of physics….. much more about this in the coming month. (also about the nature of “potential change” I will speak more in the coming posts)

The FOURTH KEY : that I always felt was to design a system that in its essence points to the ONENESS of it all. In other words whenever we divide conceptionally our experience we have to be aware that this is an informational approach as it creates Polarity/ duality/ separation/ discrimination.

Those holograms that show self-similarity on different levels are however a great informational compromise in this dilemma. The same divisions, pattern, ideas, laws are repeated in every part of the whole. There are many mathematical examples of such self-similar holograms, of which fractals are the most known ones. But holistic healing always used the concept of self-similarity, as for example the Iris, the blood, the ear, the hair, the spine, the teeth and every other part of the human body can be studied as a representation of the whole.

AND one more important aspect that enters if we use self-similarity  as the descriptive concept: Energy is never existing in pure form but there is material energy, informational energy and sprit energy and with the definitions of above we can also explain what this means and start to study it in more detail. In fact it you do this with all for elements if you go down to the 3rd level of self-similarity  you get  3Exp4=64 permutations and this is the reason why 64 has such an important function both in biology for example with the 64 permutations of the 4 DNA or 64 human states exemplified in the I-Ging.

One of the best examples of these self-similar holograms is the Sierpinski triangle that is also part of the Health Navigator and AIM logo. It is particularly suited to the ideas that I will unfold in 2010 as it is made up of 4 trinities that in themselves are each made up of 4 analog trinities and so on without end. The description of what this symbol means will fill books as a symbol is at best an expression of everything.

And this will not only be a philosophical discourse but will give wings to your understanding of health and disease.
