Re: A Few Understandings to Share, Part Two - Multi-dimensional Cosmic Change
Just an idea. I'm not a mathematician or a physicist but one might have to see the idea of dimensions more removed from space. One usually hears (maybe I'm out of date on this) that we have three spatial dimensions and the fourth is time, or at least that's what was given to me surrounding relativity theory.
I have the gut feeling that from dimension 3 to dimension 4, you don't gain 1 more dimension, but rather 4 of them. As an illustration:
1st Dimension: a single spot - Beingness, God? - no polarities
2nd Dimension: an infinite line - time - toward future, toward past
3rd Dimension: triangle - space - directions as in x y z
4th Dimension: square? - ? - ?
So as most spatial operations can only operate on the base of a triangle, maybe the fourth dimension can only exist on the base of a square, but we'd be looking for four new polarities that make up the foundation of that one.
That means one would be in the fourth dimension but there are 4 + 3 + 2 + 1 'polarities' of that dimension, being 10.
As I said, just a gut feeling.
