Die Welt- or, a rambling...

How do we talk about the world in an adequate way? The world past ourselves, past life, past all that can be seen, or heard, or felt? What is there at the culmination of this journey, this expedition, into the direction of, say, the infinitely small? What is it there? ... in that tiny absolute empty space... abiding, moving, a thing- something solid and real, something solid- as in a true atom amidst the simply nothing?

Certainly, we cannot know any of this empirically, and if we can know... what we must know must be with the use of mathematics and logic, and we strive it be conceptually coherent- and then call it real- as in an objective versus a subjective... and this is it, in part, yet extended to the whole  - oh yes, I think I must know- but I am probably wrong- what this ultimate reality must be-  this real thing, comprising the interplay of a physical dialectic- eternal and absolute, and at this level... simple.

It is one type of thing, diffuse as an aether,  and then contracted to singularity, yet, and with this thing, abides its partner- the absolute nothing, or,  call it- just empty space, the void, a complete nothingness.

Also, what we call time and motion, are but derivative concepts, that is, they have no ontic reality.  The world then, is just mass and space. And the mass occurs only as particles- tiny particles so fine they are forever beyond any epistemological reach of the senses. And it is this animated particulate mass which provides the elementary particle and wave behavior we know as quantum mechanics, and which provides the basis of the concept of Field in modern physics, which is actually in essence a kind of topological aether (of old) and encompassing, of course, all that which used to be conceived as forces- gravity and electro-magnetism.

Again, time is only the measure of the animation of this aether. Time is completely unreal as a physical entity. And Again, motion is a derived notion, generated by animate ether.

The aether in space is one modality, the opposite singularity the other, and together constitute eternity.

So now ask, how does consciousness arise?
