Analysis
of the Theory of The
Three Basic Precepts of Kenshiro
Abbe's Unified Theory of Kyushindo BAMBUTSU
RUTEN
The total complexity of our Universe is basically formed by various combinations of matter and void, or mass and space. The activating principle of the Universe is motion and we even define energy as the capacity to produce "work", which is the motion of mass through space. Existence itself is merely the duration of things, which we perceive as the motion of matter through time. These
basic quantities of matter, energy, time and motion are not
possible to define in scientific terms and all are mutually
dependent, or in other wors, being unable to exist in isolation.
Matter
cannot exist without space to denote its shape, or emptiness.
Before matter was created, there was not even emptiness because this in itself only came into existence in relation to matter. Both are what we term "mutually dependent opposites". If motion is thus perpetual, then the entire substance of the Universe on both the physical and temporal planes must also be perpetual, or infinite, because they are all part of the same integrated whole. Bambutsu Ruten does not simply say that the Universe is in motion, it specifically states that all things move. Just as the simple concept of perpetual motion uncovers some very profound questions, so does the apparently simple statement that "all things move". Western
thought once demanded that all things revolve around the earth
and the result, in astronomical terms, was a complex rosette
pattern of planetary orbits, too confusing to easily follow.
Because
the Copernican system was simpler and more elegant, it rapidly
became the standard western view, so much so, that today, it
is generally regarded as an incontrovertible truth that all
planets orbit the sun. The fact that one viewpoint is more convenient for us to grasp is no basis for establishing it as a fundamental truth. |
