Causality

Causality is one of the fundamental dimensionalities of Reality, the foundation of the causal dimension, a fundamental emerging property of Reality, one of the main ways of expression of the Source.

Causality represents the relation that binds the Force to Action, and more generally the Derived Agents / Forces to Derived Action, Agents / Forces to Events. The Causal Dimension, infinite, ranges from the elementary to the complex, in a continuum that incessantly realizes the Formation (Creation and Evolution) of Reality.

It extends from uncertainty and indetermination to finality. This dimension is a metric of the level of organization of the Structures of Information and the Forms that incessantly evolve in the Elementary Field, a scale of Complexity of Reality and the Forms that populate it. The milestones along this continuous dimension are:

  • uncertainty (chaos, random order, minimum level of Organization, minimum level of correlation between Events, etc.)
  • quantization (quantum aspects include the bizarre behavior of quantized Forces and the quantum Structures of Information, particles, etc.)
  • deterministic certainty (the organization of classical forms of ordinary reality, objects of "normal" reality)
  • finality (the high level of expression of the dynamic and conservative aspects of Living Forms)

Causality attains to the fact and the ways in which Agents / Forces / Causes acting on Acted / Fields / Space-Time produce Events (variations) / effects, Action, both at the elementary level of Reality, where the Fundamental Force and the Elementary Field interact producing the Elementary Events, and, more in general, at the more complex level, where Derived Agents / Forces acting on Derived Acted / Fields produce complex events, Derived Action.

In this sense, causality can be considered the fundamental expression of Agency, on its active side. The fundamental expression of the causal principle / property of the Force / Forces. Closely related with the Operator of Reality that we call Perturbation, an expression of the more general operator Variation.

In a relational approach to the study of Nature, causality is a property emerging from the Relation between the two fundamental aspects of the Source and of the sources: between the Force / forces and the Field / fields, from the relation between the action of the forces and the effects they produce on / in fields. Hence, Causality, as the other two fundamental dimensionalities, must be intended as a relational property with reference to Events. In this sense we can say that causality don't exists, it happens, or make Reality happen. It is an aspect of phenomena, a product of the dynamics of the inner interaction of the two aspects of the Source of Reality.


Cause

Cause is any direct expression of Agents / Forces, in the context of Agency, where the action of Agents / Forces produces Events, variations in the Acted / Fields, the "effects" in short, in the inner interactions between the two complementary aspects of the Sources.

Cause finds its foundation in Causality, one of the fundamental Dimensionalities of Reality, a fundamental emerging property of Reality.

Cause assumes different meaning, aspects, properties, limits, constraints, in the two complementary domains of Nature, the Physical and the Cognitive Reality
