Is The Expression Of Truth The Medium For Releasing Energy?
by Steven Paglierani
Recently, my friend Ed asked, "Are 'truths,' energy sources? Or is the expression of truth the medium for releasing energy?"
My answer?
Truths are indeed energy sources. And at the risk of totally confusing people, they are also matter sources. Moreover, while we often refer to some mysteriously invisible thing we call, "energy," in actuality, "energy" is more the beautifully complex experience of a phase transition between these two states than the actual cause of any change. It's the "what happens" rather than the "why it happens."
Why then do we so often refer to energy as a thing in and of itself? In part, because the folks who most often teach us about energy tend to speak about it this way. They are, after all, physicists. Meaning? They tend to try to "physicalize" everything. Even God.
Then too there is the way they teach us that all matter "contains" energy. Does it? Not really. Although again, this is a beautiful metaphor.
In reality, there is no such thing as "energy," anymore than there is such a thing as "matter." These two "things" are simply two states of the same thing. Light. Which is, after all, the foundation of everything Einstein tried to teach us.
So what is energy then? Energy is simply the way we refer to what we imagine underlies change. In other words, we see change and imagine there must be something causing this change. Is there? Yes. But this cause is nothing separate from the process. It is the process. In other words, what we imagine to be the force behind change is merely something built into the nature of whatever is changing, rather than some separate underlying force.
In English? This thing we call "energy" is our inept way to imagine that behind "change," there is a "change agent." A change agent we call, "energy." Moreover, this in no way is a modern development. Rather, we have been speaking this way for thousands of years.
At first, of course, we personified this mysterious change agent. Hindi gods to Aristotle's "prime mover." Eventually though, as we became more and more obsessed with separating the mystery in life from the physically obvious, we concretized this divide by calling the mystery, "energy," and the physically obvious, "matter."
In truth, all that is really happening here is that the amazingly complex and beautiful fractal forms which make up our natural world are bifurcating and morphing between states. Translation. Energy and matter are simply changing states like steam and ice. In other words, they are really just the same thing only in different states.
As for the original question as to whether "truths" are energy sources, "truths" are simply any process in which our state changes from less visible to more visible. Or from less natural to more natural, if this is your focus.
Expressed as one of the most beautiful metaphors ever devised, truths are indeed, energy sources. And matter sources, as well.
