numbers of this work. So, it, 1 has no place to stand and can simply be nowhere, a singularity
all alone with no possibility of spatial neighbourhood because the infinity and zero of
space has been abstracted from its material content and vice versa. But with the infinity and
zero of space included as in fluid logic numbers, it can be here, there and everywhere like
every ‘thing else’ in the world.
This takes us to physical reality. What is that, physical reality? The reality of physics is
based on correspondence theory of truth which we call correspondence theory of fact. The
theory says that for anything to be regarded as true in physics it has to correspond with something
in Nature. The question is what is that with which it has to correspond in Nature if
the Nature of physics is not the raw pure Nature of beautiful flowers, lovely smile, yes of
beauty of carriage and character and the glory of love which flows from within to without
and from without to within to keep not only the human but also the cosmic balance?
“Physics has made much progress in piercing through the mist pervading our senses to
realize that trees, buildings, people, etc. are not fundamental to our world, but are de
rivatives of more basic forms. Indeed, notions of color, hotness or coldness, hard or
soft, fragrant or foul, quiet or loud are not what they seem: colors are electromagnetic
waves of various frequencies; temperature is the average velocity of particles; tenacity
is the arrangement of molecules and bonds; odor is an interaction between air-born
chemicals and nasal receptors; volume is the amplitude of sound waves, etc. There has
never been a moment in which you have actually touched an object; you have only felt
the repulsive force of its electrons upon your own. There has never been a time in
which you have seen an object; you have only interpreted the waves it emits, waves
that are not part of it. All of our senses are fictions that at best refer to some underly
ing truth. Like numbers and equations, our senses provide an isomorphism bet
ween truth and subject—between external and internal reality.” [David Valdman]
The question is, is this reality, what we have from physics as quoted above? Is it reality
when the beauty of the sea with its infinitude of waves is reduced to lifeless molecules and
the loftiness of tree to atoms and the touching of the baby to feeling the repulsive force of
the electrons emanating from her on our own? How can we relate this kind of strange reality
to human suffering? Indeed what has all this to do with the tending to the flowers and enjoying
the melodious songs issuing out from the birds? Are those all atoms and vibrations and
what again is there to reduce everything into sand grains? And where is existence in all this?
Of course, Valdman does not forget to confess that what we got from mathematics as reality
on which science bases its reality to invest it with exactitude is nothing to compare with human
reality which should be the source of their validity. And on this he makes his choice.
“If I had a choice of which reality I would rather experience, between a ma
thematical one, a scientific one, or the one we perceive, with absolute resolve I would
choose the latter. All the mathematical and physical insight we may have will never
detract from the beauty of our world; it will only make the illusion more magnificent.
But the big picture descends by understanding the correspondences between these
realities and from where they stem. This picture stares beyond our perceptions and
into the heart of what it means to exist, to be real. Mathematics may be the lens
through which truth is exposed, or it may not be. But regardless, in my estimation, this
undertaking is the most fulfilling journey within the capabilities of man. We have been
given the gift of reason so that from this rock we can fathom the furthest corners of our
universe, and the deepest layers of reality. Now it is on our shoulders a matter of
dedication.”
