TFNR - The Principles of Reality
The Fundamental Principles of Reality are the most important principles that characterize the formation of the whole Reality, both in the physical as in the meta-physical/cognitive domain.
Within a general process of derivation that, from the elementary, the absolute, leads to the complex, the relative (relativization as a fundamental aspect of the Process of Formation of Reality), some more specific principles will derive in the physical domain of Reality. The same for the cognitive side of Reality, where from these principles will emerge the more abstract forms that characterize the cognitive systems and the knowledge.
Here we will represent these principles in their most elementary form, related to the phase of the fundamental Process of Formation of Reality that we call Creation, concerning the production of the Elementary Action at the most elementary level of Reality). Each of the following principles can be expressed and actually express itself in various different ways at the more and more complex level of Reality and in the different domains of Nature (in the physical domain as in the cognitive one).
The most elementary and fundamental principles of Reality are the following:
Principle of Variation
Only variations, mutations of Entities (Sources, the Force/Field unitarian couples), thus only the Events, the Action, exist. We can say that Entities exist because the produce Events, Action, thus Existence. Reality in the product of an incessant Process of Formation, where variation is the fundament, the true core of the incessant creation and evolution of the Universe.
Principle of Propagation
Any variation of a Field produced by a Force tends to propagate in the Field spatially (and so conserving in time), propagating the Action of those Forces, the Events, in the Fields, propagating the causes, the causality, through the Action. The propagation of causes, of Forces, is represented by the extension in space of the effects of the Action produced by those causes/forces.
Principle of Conservation
Any variation of a Field produced by a Force tends to conserve in the Field temporarily (and so propagating in space), conserving the Action of those Forces, the Events, in the Fields, conserving the causes, the causality, through the Action. The conservation of causes, of Forces, is represented by the permanence in time of the effects of the Action produced by those causes/forces.
Principle of Unity
The Field (as the Force that acts on it, producing the Elementary Events) is one and only one. It is undivided and indivisible, infinite and unlimited both in the space and time dimensions. From the organization of the fluctuations of that Field, what we call Elementary Action, emerges the whole multiplicity of the Forms of the Universe in evolution. At the most elementary level of Reality, the multiplicity, the complexity of the infinite world is only apparent, like the mesmerizing white foam crests over the blue ocean.
Principle of Relation
Any fluctuation, any variation of the Field, therefore every Elementary Event, produced by the Action of the Force on the Field, interacts with any other Event, with a different intensity determined by the causal, spatial and temporal distance between them, due to the finite speed of propagation in the Field of its elementary fluctuations, which represent the Elementary Events. Extending this description, we can say that, with the limits imposed by the finite velocity of propagation, in the Universe everything is connects and interacts with everything else.
Principle of Individuation
At any level of complexity, at any level of Reality, every object, every product of the Process of Formation of Reality, every Event, Action, Information, Structure of Information, Form, in turn become a whole, a unity, a new source of Events, of Action, of Information, and thus a new active subject in the incessant creation and evolution of Reality. The object of an Action become itself a new subject of Action.
