On the Emergence of Physical World from the Ultimate Reality

Abstract

Based on the statements of several prominent scientists and the reasoning presented in the my article “On the nature of Consciousness, Space & Omnipresence of GOD” also appearing in this issue, I argue that space is not an empty - void extension of nothingness; rather, there exists an ultimately real entity which is all-pervading in space and ever-present in time. This ultimate reality may be visualized as “mutually-balanced electrostatic field”. It is suggested that matter is just a process or phenomenon of fluctuation spontaneously generated in this ultimate reality. It is then logically derived that only spherical patterns of fluctuations are sustained for longer durations, so there are a number of spherical fluctuation-patterns, which we perceive as the fundamental particles of matter. Further, a mathematical derivation is presented which supports the logic that a particle of matter is a localized spherical standing wave. This approach leads to: (i) a new insight into the wave-particle duality of fundamental particles; and (ii) a new understanding that the currently considered quantum-mechanical waves are envelop-variations or modulations of the actual more fundamental waves considered here.  This understanding of the nature of particles leads us to a new understanding of gravity and an explanation for the observed relative strengths of the gravitational and electric forces.
