Ancient cultures all over the world have
understood the Universe as having its continuous origin in four prime
forces that may be described as active (yang) and receptive
(yin) of both Masculine and Feminine.
The ancestors of the modern indigenous Americans, according to author and researcher James Churchward, set the four prime forces in “the four corners of the world” as the four directions, when they migrated to that country, so that they would never be forgotten. They are represented in the above visual symbol, which is also drawn as:
and are obvious in the ancient symbol of the quadrated circle
Today’s scientists have concluded that
there are four prime physical forces operative in the universe, and call
them gravity, electromagnetic force, weak nuclear force, and strong
nuclear force.
We are searching for something, hungry for God knows what, and
pursuing it however we may. And we are following many pathways, some called science, some called
spirituality. Every
pathway goes Home eventually. And
every division has a whole from whence it came. We
might well wonder “What is the whole from whence science and
spirituality came?” The
Four Prime Forces Victor Schauberger spent his life studying
water flow and energy. His extraordinary discoveries about energy have
been both neglected and exploited, most certainly to the detriment of
the human impact upon the environment. ( He created a flying machine
employing free energy that burst through the roof of his laboratory when
he first turned it on. ) His work draws attention to centripetal force
in the spin of a vortex and the power within it. He observed that there
was a force with an opposite movement within a spiral spin form and
employed this in his work. (vortex; pl.
vortices; a whorling spiraling movement of matter or energy
around a centre centripetal;
movement towards the center centripetal force; (Macquarie
Dictionary), a force acting on a body, which is directed towards the
center of a circle or curve, which causes it to move in the circle or
curve centrifugal;
movement outwards from the center centrifugal force; (Macquarie Dictionary), the force exerted outwards by a
body moving in a curved path; the reaction of centripetal force). Did
you know that in Elizabethan England, that Oxford and Cambridge
universities did not even have a chair of mathematics and that plus and
minus signs were considered only a little short of sorcery? ( Read
“John Dee. The World of an Elizabethan Magus” by Peter French, 1972,
Ark, Great Britain.) And
yet millennia before the Elizabethan period, the Egyptians excelled at
geometry and mathematics. Schauberger is not the only scientist
who has brought forth the power of spin for our attention and been
ignored. A brilliant mathematician in our present
time called Dan Winter has been computer mapping the mathematics of the
two opposite spin movements in relation to the human heart and emotion. Western cultures have been using the
principle of fission to provide energy, and consequently have been
progressively “burning” the resources of the natural environment. The work of Dan Winter invites the
consideration of the energy locked into the fusion of vortices. Others like Dr David Wheeler go a step
further to propose that the most natural energy source is that which
follows an alternating implosion/explosion pattern….lock the energy in
and then release it. This pattern is repeated throughout the Universe,
and may be seen in the human heartbeat, the ripple in the windblown or
waterwashed sands, and in the swimming motion of the simplest anemone
sea life. It is a repeated alternating pattern of contraction/ expansion
or implosion/ explosion. It is the Universal heartbeat, the pulse of life. fusion; to
unify, to blend or unite into a whole. In physics; (Macquarie
Dictionary) a thermonuclear reaction in which nuclei of light atoms join
to form nuclei of heavier atoms, as the combination of deuterium atoms
to form helium atoms, and usually with the release of large amounts of
energy. fission; (Macquarie Dictionary), the
act of splitting or cleaving into parts. In physics, the splitting of
the nucleus of a heavy atom, to form the nuclei of lighter atoms. Tell me a story (one that I’d like to hear)... A Tale of Two Brothers Once upon a time, a
very long time ago, so long ago that we barely remember and if we do, it
is only through what we read about that time, the brotherhood of man
parted ways…Or so the story is told, in science and
in myth. In mythology, it was
told as a story of men, in their time. It is mystery now but the tales
remain, embedded in cultures all over the world. The tales are of two
brothers, or twins, or two men whose bond of love and trust was broken
by the action of one wielding a weapon against the other. In
the parting of the ways, many rich and vital experiences were being
lived by the human beings all over the world who had descended from the
‘brothers’. One
“brother’s” descendants lived close to the Earth and spent each
day flowing with nature, drawing their sustenance and pleasure of
experience from what She created for them. As
a people they developed a highly specialized intuitive or ‘feeling’
faculty of the mind, and a deep appreciation of natural beauty through
the senses. They lived each moment of each day, just as it came. Their
lives were about the place (or space) where they lived. The
other “brother’s” descendants were different. They were more
inclined to create for themselves for their survival from what nature
provided, and to learn what they could about the physical laws of nature
in order to do that. They
developed a highly specialised rational or ‘thinking’ faculty of the
mind. They were more inclined to revere what they themselves created.
More than that, they were more inclined to revere what they themselves
had not yet created. They lived for the future and what it might bring.
They lived in any place they chose. Calendars of time ordered their
lives. The
brothers’ descended families lived separate and different lives for
millennia. Then
something that was always foretold came to pass…almost. One
brother returned and found the other. But
rather than come in peace as the story was wont to tell, he came in
aggravation and fairly smote the other so that he barely survived the
meeting. No longer did he recognize him as brother, but saw him
distinctly as “other”, stole his homelands, poisoned his peoples,
killed them and captured them in slavery to his own way of being. Brother
to brother. The original Wound
in the Mind of the Masculine lay open and bleeding. In time, some of the
families of the two brothers intermarried and so once again regarded
themselves as kin. But some held themselves apart and aloof, determined
to lose none of the ancestral identity. A scar grew over the Wound, so
that the original slash of that which had divided them was still clearly
able to be seen. Often the wound opened and bled. It still does to
this very day. Fighting in Iraq. Fighting in Afghanistan. Fighting in
Pakistan. Fighting in Ireland. Fighting in Zimbabwe. Fighting in New
York. Fighting in parliament. Fighting in
business. Fighting in the street. Fighting in the home. Fighting on the
7pm nightly news. The brother’s wound is still bleeding. But in quiet corners
all over the world, people are watching. Women are watching. And many
more men than we might think, are watching!
And hoping, asking, praying for change.
And…..children are watching! And one child might
hopefully cry out in a moment of time not too distant from this very
moment….. “Look! What’s
that? A bubble is rising!” “And what is
this?” might the child’s mother ask. “What are these
people doing chasing after that bubble!? Are they mad? Don’t they know
it will burst?”
“Someone will soon put a stop to it,” the boy’s old
uncle would probably say. “Ah!” would say
the child’s wise old grandmother very slowly. “There’s no harm in
just watching for a while. I’ve heard tell a long time ago that the
bubble is filled with a vision of a myriad colours of Hope, and if you
watch it long enough and nurse it gently enough, the vision becomes
real” “Some old wive’s
tale!” the grandfather would grunt. But surely the child
would yell, “I want to go see it!” And please God, the
father would reply, “Wait for me! I’m coming with you!” Further
