Dear Reader,

 

In thinking about the Seldonian ‘Self-Resurging Big Surge’ Hypothesis – which we also call ‘The Spandetron Hypothesis’ about “Dark Energy”, or ‘The Regenerist Hypothesis’ on the thermodynamic self-regeneration of our cosmos, we find it interesting to consider it in relation to the ancient hypotheses of “atomism”.

 

These hypotheses emerged early in philosophical history – among the Jainists of India, after 800 B.C.E, and with the ancient Greek philosophers Leucippus and Democritus, in the Fifth Century B.C.E.

 

The etymology of the ancient Greek term «atom» is telling:  the word-element ‘«a»’ is a negatory prefix, signifying “not”; “«tomos»” is Greek for “cut”.  An «atom» is thus a ‘not-cut’, or an ‘uncuttable thing’.  For the atomists, this word names ultra-microscopic, humanly invisible objects that can’t be divided further; devoid of separable parts. 

 

In the context of ancient Greek philosophy, we might think of these «atoms», held to constitute the single unit that is our cosmos, as the fruition of a critique of the Parmenidean model of that cosmos, as a single unit of pure Being – a single sphere of eternal, immutable substance – by way of a ‘meta-unit-ization’, holding the cosmos to be, instead, made up out of a multiplicity, an «arithmos», of tiny such units, of substantial shapes, likewise eternal and immutable, but immersed in a void of nothingness; in a nothing whose existence, whose very possibility, Parmenides denied.   

 

Per the atomists, then, our cosmos is composed of just ‘“atoms and/in the void”’.

 

Per the Seldonian ‘Regenerist Hypothesis’, on the contrary, our cosmos is composed of ‘«monads» and/in a «plenum»’, itself also an «arithmos» of «monads», or, more specifically, a growing ‘‘‘cumulum’’’ of a finite but growing number of ontologically, qualitatively distinct kinds of «monads»; of multiple, distinct «arithmoi» of «monads».

 

By «monads» we mean units that are distinguishable, but most often not “uncuttable”.  We mean mostly «monads» that typically contain layers/levels/finite-fractal scales of nested ‘sub-«monads»’.

 

By a «plenum», we mean, not an emptiness, but a ‘flowing fullness’.  In particular, we mean the ‘‘‘shoreless ocean’’’ of ‘spandetrons’; the ‘spandetron expanse’ that we hypothesize as that which forms the substance of “Dark Energy”.

 

‘‘‘Floating’’’, ‘‘‘suspended’’’ in that ‘spandetron expanse’ are ‘metaⁿ-«monads»’ that are various ‘‘‘orders’’’ or ‘‘‘degrees’’’ of ‘metaⁿ-spandetrons’.  We currently have no hypothesis as to what sub-units the ‘spandetron’ units might be made of, so, perhaps, it is the ‘spandetron’ units that are the ultimate, ultra-microscopic, “Planck-scale”, ‘uncuttables’ – we presently do not know.

 

Per hypothesis, the 1st ‘“order”’ or ‘“degree’’’ of ‘meta-spandetrons’, the ‘meta¹-spandetrons’, are the units of so-called “Dark Matter”.  Each “Dark Matter” «monad» is made up out of a multiplicity of ‘spandetrons’, self-damaged by their “inflationary” excession of the – far superluminal, but still finite – limiting velocity of “Dark Energy” space self-expansion, beyond which the, incessantly self-replicating, ‘spandetrons’ become damaged, de-natured.  This self-induced ‘‘‘damage’’’ means that they lose their capability to self-replicate, and, instead of the ‘anti-gravitic force’ that they represented in their undamaged state, they turn into their opposites, by becoming the gravitating, or ‘anti-anti-gravitic’ «monads» of the, ‘proto-galactic’, “Dark Matter Halos”.

 

The dialectical synthesis of this “Dark Energy” versus “Dark Matter” antithesis, this anti-gravity versus ‘anti-anti-gravity’ cosmological opposition, is, per hypothesis, the pre-‘Bright-Matter’ “cosmic web”.

 

By ‘Bright Matter’ – including at least the «monads» of the “Standard Model of Particle Physics” – we mean the 2nd ‘“order”’ or ‘“degree’’’ of ‘meta-spandetrons’, i.e., the ‘meta²-spandetrons’, each one made up out of a multiplicity of ‘meta¹-spandetrons’, of units of so-called “Dark Matter”.

 

Thus, each unit of “Dark Matter” is made up out of multiple units of “Dark Energy”, and each unit of ‘Bright Matter’, i.e., of units that interact with photon units, is made up out of multiple units of “Dark Matter”. 

 

Per hypothesis, the ‘self-involutional’, self-iterating  «aufheben» process of ‘metaⁿ-«monad»-ization’ escalates upward in ‘‘‘degree’’’ from there, as per the Encyclopedia Dialectica dialectical-ontological ‘meta-model’ of Nature – of ‘cosmological meta-evolution’ – as depicted in the images posted above.
