Reductionism

Redcutionism
In a nutshell, this is the process of pursuing our understanding of physical systems by a continuous process of breaking the system down into ever-smaller parts and analyzing those parts independent of the whole of the system (and equally importantly, independent of the greater environment the system is contained within.

RENE DESCARTES
The Father of Modern Philosophy
Rene Descartes was a writer, philosopher, and mathematician whose ideas are still considered to be fundamental to many of our modern ways of thinking. His philosophical writings on the nature of existence are standard reading in most university philosophy departments, and he’s often considered to be the father of modern philosophy.1  Most people are familiar with two of his major philosophical concepts:

Cogito ergo sum (English: I think, therefore I am) – In realizing that everything can be doubted as to its truth, Descartes arrived at the fundamental conclusion that his own experience of doubt proved his own existence.
Dualism – That mind (including soul or spirit) and body are fundamentally separate and distinct. The body is a machine made of material parts. The mind is nonmaterial and is not based on natural laws.

By describing Mind and Body as completely separate and distinct through his philosophy of Dualism, he effectively removed consciousness from the mechanics of the physical world. He went on to describe human bodies as material “machines,” and reduced non-human animals to “automata” (self-operating machines). 

However, the reductionist approach coupled with dualism led to a drastic divergence from the integrative and holistic views of alchemy and metaphysics, which until this time were essentially complements to scientific inquiry. 
Summary Reductionism
1) The universe is comprised of material objects that can best be analyzed by continual reduction of the objects into the smaller parts that make it up;
2) We can therefore seek to find the root cause or source of matter by looking for ever-smaller fundamental particles;
3) Objects in space are independent entities, separate from each other and independent of the space in which they exist;
4) The 2-dimensional Cartesian mathematical model provides a simplified framework through which to analyze physical systems (even though no 2-dimensional objects have ever been found in the universe).

Descartes’s point of view that each person is their own authority on the truth of their own existence, or more accurately, the “certainty” of their existence, was revolutionary to the way of thinking at the time. The doctrines of the Christian Church when he published Meditations on First Philosophy in 1641 (and in some cases to the present day) established that “truth” was based on an external authority, namely God, and enforced by the Church.

His anthropocentric (or human centric) approach led to a scientific emancipation from the Church, often called the birth of the “Age of Reason,” also known as simply “The Enlightenment.”

Newtonian Physics

Picture
Nothing is so fatal to the progress of the human mind as to suppose our views of science are ultimate; that there are no new mysteries in nature; that our triumphs are complete; and that there are no new worlds to conquer.

—Humphry Davy (from a public lecture given in 1810)

We tend to look at science as an absolute truth, a story already written. In reality science is more like a story told in installments and each new chapter refines, subsumes or completely revises the previous. Quantum field theory has completely rewritten the book of science at the most fundamental level. However, modern biology and medicine continue to reference from a moldy, outdated book based on Newtonian science.

Are we only simple biological machines that have learned to think with this pesky phenomenon called the placebo effect? Are we victims of our parents’ and ancestral genetics? Do germs truly cause disease, making us sick? Does a billiard ball sort of chemistry regulate the billions of reactions taking place in our body every second? Modern medicine seems to say yes to all these questions spending billions attempting to solve them. The real problem is that the overall science, philosophy and worldview modern medicine continues to subscribe to is based on Newtonian physics. Our health is treated as though we are biological machines that can be fixed mechanically. We are treated pharmacologically with harmful chemicals and toxic vaccines that at best suppress symptoms with varying degrees of side effects (think of commercials for drugs and the long lists of side effects stated very quickly at the end).

In order to move forward into the exciting science of energy medicine (specifically PEMF therapy) with an empowering attitude of taking responsibility for our own health; we need to see why this paradigm is flawed by first looking at the basic concepts of Newtonian physics. Then we’ll introduce the exciting new physics, namely quantum field theory, and the latest developments in science.

Newtonian Physics - A Model of Reality that Stubbornly Won’t Go Away

Nature and Nature’s laws lay hid at night: God said, Let Newton be! And all was light. —Alexander Pope

Isaac Newton (1642-1727) is regarded as the founder of modern Western science that dominated for at least 200 years until the early 20th century with the discovery of quantum mechanics. A whole new universe opened up in the early part of the 20th century and here we are 100 years later still gazing through the tinted windows of Newton’s physics.

Newtonian physics are rules of the everyday world you are familiar with. It’s also the basis of our sensory worldview, language, as well as the predominant perceived model of reality. If you think “reality” is the world you can see, hear, taste, smell and touch than be prepared for a quantum leap in understanding the world you live in. If you think your body is solid and governed by fixed laws, take a seat and brace yourself.

The Newtonian model of the universe depicts a well-behaved, deterministic world with fixed rules. A reality created from separate objects in an empty vacuum of space-time. Objectivity is viewable by a conscious observer, with consciousness itself a mere byproduct of the physical brain. In this model, we are reduced to separate beings residing on an isolated planet in a lonely universe, victims to fate and deterministic laws. Let’s take a closer look at these five fundamental flaws of “classical” or Newtonian physics.

1. Determinism/Fate

Newtonian physics aka classical mechanics is a set of logical rules that attempts to describe all phenomenon in the universe. The job of Newtonian mechanics is predicting the future. If you know everything about a system at some point in time and its initial conditions; and also if you know the equations of how the system changes, then you can predict the future. This is what is meant by determinism in the classical laws of physics.

With Newton’s mechanics, the universe, nature and our bodies can be studied just like the workings of a machine. In fact a giant ticking clock was a popular metaphor in the time of Newton. The “clockwork universe” wound up by God ticks along like a perfect machine, with its gears governed by the laws of Newton’s physics. God’s only contribution to the universe was to set everything in motion or wind the clock, and from there, the laws of science took hold and have governed every sequence of events since.

Everything, humans included, has been governed by Newtonian law. If something could not be determined, it was only because of lack of proper measurement. Telescopes were not powerful enough at that time in history to see other galaxies and really grasp the vastness of space. But the idea of there being ONE universe composed of solid celestial objects, planets, stars, etc., dominated science until the 20th century.

The biggest flaw with Newtonian logic is that on a large scale, one cannot know with infinite precision the initial conditions. Small deviations results in chaos (non-linear dynamics) which rule most physical systems, especially in nature and all of life. There is a quote well known in physics circles, “The study of non-linear physics is like the study of non-elephant biology”. What this means is that linear systems that can be determined are RARE in nature, while chaos and non-linear dynamics are the norm. Even more radical is quantum mechanics in which uncertainty reigns at all times.

2. Newton’s Solid & Static Universe

Generally this view is taught in schools and perhaps you mistakenly believe this outdated version of the universe as well. From a young age we are generally taught to believe in a solid or material reality. Even the atom is viewed like the solar system with the nucleus being analogous to the sun and the electrons the planets. You may be shocked in the next chapter as we delve deeper into shattering the false illusion of a solid reality. The truth is that your body, our planet and the universe are made up of mostly empty space! And yet, paradoxically this empty space has a near infinite amount of energy (more on this in the next chapter).

Not only is Newton’s universe solid, it’s also fixed, static and unmoving. Even Einstein himself thought the universe was static overall and added a cosmological constant to his equations of general relativity to counteract the attractive force of gravity, which would otherwise cause the universe to collapse or expand forever. Modern cosmology with the discoveries of Edwin Hubble and others has shown that the universe began with a BIG BANG, and is in fact EXPANDING, with space itself moving all galaxies apart from each other at increasing speeds.

3. Illusion of Separateness and Reductionism

In Newtonian physics, all things, including human beings are considered to be isolated objects surrounded by empty space. Space itself is considered an inert, passive stage for the universe to play out. There are only segregated objects, whether they are large celestial bodies, human bodies or atoms. These separate objects exist surrounded by the empty vacuum of space and time. Within this model, humans are separate beings on an isolated planet residing in a cold and lonely universe.

Also, there is the idea of reductionism in Newtonian mechanics. If we are to understand the inner workings of anything, we must deconstruct it. When we’re done and discovered the last smallest sub- particle, the tiniest cogwheel of the clock so to speak, we will have finally come to understand all there is to know about the object of study. This reductionist approach has given us much valuable information in biology and medicine, but has led to an over-emphasis on the physical or material nature of things. It has also limited our sight to seeing things in isolation and not collectively and holistically. The holographic model of the universe and our bodies is in true alignment with modern physics, and yet has not found its place in allopathic medicine.

4. Objectivity - “Outer Reality” is Real and the Observer is a Passive Watcher

In Newton’s universe, we are passive spectators observing the grand stage of creation, falsely believing our subjective thoughts have no bearing on the universe around us. The “observer” and the “observed” are separate, an outer reality exists “outside” our perception whether we view it or not.

This objectivity (in theory) allows scientific laboratories around the world to replicate experiments without subjectivity influencing the outcomes. According to Newtonian physics, the outer physical world is strictly objective, meaning scientific experiments are not dependent on the observer performing the experiment. So science must formulate a protocol which all experiments must be performed before they are accepted. This protocol stipulates that experiments must be reproducible by other scientists anywhere in the world. The experimenter or observer in no way influences the result.

From this flawed outlook, the reality we perceive through our five senses is real, concrete and distinctly separate from our own inner subjective awareness. It is an outside reality with precise, determined laws that govern the amazingly complex machine of the cosmos, the earth and even our bodies and minds!

Could quantum field theory possibly shatter the brittle glass separating our subjective experience from outward objective reality? We’ll take a look in the next chapter.

5. Consciousness is an Epiphenomenon of Matter and The Physical Brain

In Newton’s universe consciousness is an epiphenomenon of the physical brain. It’s simply a by-product or secondary effect of the brain’s chemical and electrical impulses with no cause in itself. Modern quantum field theory has a new story to tell, placing consciousness in the drivers seat as causal and most fundamental.

As we’ll see in the “new physics”, namely the most recent breakthroughs in quantum field theory, these FIVE foundations of Newton’s physics don’t simply come crumbling down, they are blown to smithereens.

Unfortunately, treatment with modern medicine is still under the suppressive dictatorship of Newton’s science.

We need a SHIFT!!

In the next chapter we’ll review the new physics, namely quantum field theory, and a new paradigm to consider in the health and healing of your body, mind and spirit. The dark ages of allopathic medicine are OVER! It’s time to usher in a new science of energy medicine with PEMF therapy and natural and holistic healing at the forefront. It’s also time to take action and take responsibility for your OWN health.

The transition to the new physics is Einstein’s theories of special and general relativity. These ideas radically changed the landscape of space/ time, as well as matter being merely a form of energy. Keep in mind however that Einstein’s relativity is still a CLASSICAL model with some of the aforementioned flaws. It’s just a much more accurate one! Einstein’s ideas further paved the way for a paradigm shift in physics at the beginning of the 20th century; coupled with the advent of quantum mechanics, which Einstein was an important contributor with his Nobel Prize winning paper on the photoelectric effect.

Newton Under Fire - Special and General Relativity Theory

In 1905, Albert Einstein changed the prevailing worldview of Newtonian physics for good with the introduction of his special relativity theory, followed in 1915 by general relativity. He proved Newtonian laws of physics are by no means static, but relative to the observer and the observed. Depending on the difference in speed between the observer and the object under observation, space begins to either shrink or expand and time slows down or speeds up.

In Newton’s universe, there are notions of absolute space and time. Space was seen as a three dimensional stage, and time the ticking of a well-made clock. The two were separate and distinct. In Einstein’s special relativity, space and time form one 4-dimensional space-time continuum with the speed of light being the only fundamental absolute measurement. Measuring distance in time may seem strange but consider the following examples.

In the time of pioneers distance was measured in time, for example getting from one city to another might have been agreed upon as a four days journey. Cosmologists use light-years to measure distance. For example our nearest star (besides the sun) is Alpha Centauri, which is about 4 light years from earth. 4 light years is the distance light travels in 4 years. Our moon is about 1 light second away and the sun is 9 light minutes away. When you see the sun, you are actually viewing it 9 minutes in the past. One of the illusions of space-time is that to see anything “out there” in space, you are always seeing it backwards in time. But because light travels so fast it is almost instantaneous for distances on earth, so this illusion is not apparent. To give you a sense at how fast light travels, light can take 7.5 laps around the earth in ONE SECOND!

Also, energy and matter were two distinct notions in Newton’s mechanics, and there were separate conservation laws for both: the conservation of matter and the conservation of energy. Einstein with his famous equation E = mc2 forever changed this notion as well. Matter and energy are interchangeable with energy being the more fundamental unit. This is one of the most important new scientific notions in this book that we can apply to new understandings of the human body; namely that we are primarily energetic beings and secondarily physical ones!

Finally, general relativity supplants Newton’s action at a distance with the curving of space and time. Simply put, mass curves space and curved space guides mass in a way that follows Einstein’s elegant field equations of general relativity. The force of gravity is now known to be a curving of space and time, rather than forces acting at a distance.

However, Newton’s physics was “good enough” to send a man to the moon, so it is a good approximation at speeds significantly less than the speed of light and space that is mainly flat (both conditions hold in the lunar landing triumph).

Relativity is a refined version of Newton’s laws to take into account high speeds and intense gravitational fields; but it is still pre-quantum and classical in a sense, unable to describe the nature and motion of atoms and “very small” things which the next chapter we’ll literally shed “light” on! Get ready to go small, its time to take a dive into the world of the quantum, the foundation of the universe, which includes YOU in a totally new paradigm of reality!
