Dimensions of Reality

Definition

While dimesionalities are to be considered as fundamental emerging properties of the two components of the Source of Reality, dimensions are intended as ways of observing the world, the Universe and all the Forms that compose it.

We can observe and measure Reality in three fundamental "directions", corresponding to the three fundamental emerging properties of the manifestations of the Source: causality (expression of the Fundamental Force), Variationality, in its components Spatiality, Temporality (expression of the Elementary Field).

We can observe and measure Physical Reality in three fundamental directions, corresponding to the three fundamental emerging properties of the manifestations of the Source: cause (or force), space, time, dimensions that directly derive from the corresponding dimensionalities.

In the field of Cognitive Reality, in the metaphysical domain, composed by Immaterial Forms, Cognitive Forms (Information at the higher levels of complexity), in some areas and for some aspects, causal and spatial-temporal dimensions assume a different forms and can be transcended (eg products of imaginative thought, dreams, metaphysical descriptive models, physical theories "exotic"). In this domain of Reality the perception and the cognitive modelling of the dimensions of Physical Reality become particularly relevant.

Dimensionalities of Reality	Dimensions of Reality
. . Causality	. . Cause
. . Variationality	. . Variation (*)
. . . Spatiality	. . . Space
. . . Temporality	. . . Time

(*) Variation as a Dimension of Reality is considered only through its two components Space and Time. For Variation more properly we intend the first of the Modes of Action, the other two being Propagation and Conservation.
