Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

We published this book because it delivers on the promise of its title. It is not another book speculating on what scientists are trying to achieve. The book methodically explains the whole structure of reality and its functional levels. This understanding is then used to answer the big questions of science, philosophy and religion.

A more serious scientist than Jerry Wheatley can not be found. That is evident throughout the book. It is an overwhelming achievement of over thirty years of full time work. The book was released without fanfare.

Jerry began his scientific project with one assumption, namely that nature is uniform. Otherwise, he says, there is no sense in trying to understand anything. Other than that one assumption, he assumed nothing. There is an interesting twist to the second assumption. Years later while trying to understand the nature of spatial expansion from the Big Bang, Jerry recognized a problem. If space is defined by nothing, there is a problem in explaining the Big Bang as an expansion of space. Nothingness is everywhere -- it must extend indefinitely, even beyond the edge of universal expansion. Jerry says, "There is 'nothing' here, there is nothing there -- nothing is everywhere!" Space must be expanding into nothingness -- into itself. How can that be? The answer lies with the ultimate nature of space and the correct understanding of the cosmological singularity.

It is said "physics breaks down" as parameters narrow to the singularity. It means the mathematics breaks down, but it shouldn't and it doesn't. Jerry learned that the most basic elements of mathematics are insufficiently understood. He discovered this while trying to reconcile the expansion of space with the concept of nothingness. If space is nothing, how could it expand as though it were something? Specifically: was space static or dynamic (therefore nonstatic). How could it be both without contradiction? If it is not nothing, then it is not space. So, either there are two types of space or the ultimate nature of space was not properly understood.

When the accepted understanding of mathematics could not supply a noncontradictory answer to the space-nothingness problem, Jerry applied physics (particularly, the law of conservation) to math and discovered that the contemporary understanding of the basic elements of math was flawed. He began to understand why there are paradoxes in math and logic. The problem of space was similar to Russell's Paradox -- "The set of all sets which are not members of themselves." He realized that other paradoxes and Goedel's legacy resulted from insufficient understanding of the basic mathematical elements. Everyone assumed they understood how the basic elements such as zero, one, and infinity relate. But if these elements are not properly understood, then the physics to which these elements are applied will be misconstrued. And indeed, that is exactly what has happened. Appearances are deceiving. To obtain a deeper understanding of reality meant getting beyond apparent definitions.

Certainly, Jerry thought, a system can only be complete when it is also consistent. Yet it is acknowledged that a system is complete only if zero equals one (0 = 1). The system Jerry was considering is none other than the complete system denoted reality. After he deciphered the structure of reality and found no inconsistencies in reality's uniformity, he reasoned that perhaps the wrong concept of consistency was applied to a completed system because of insufficient understanding of the basic elements of mathematics. And that is what he found. He reasoned how to prove 0 = 1. Although the journey to truth was mindboggling, once he got to the ultimate truth, it was easy to understand. In fact, every child understands the ultimate equation.

From the Author

If we are doomed to die, why is there life at all? What is the meaning to life? Religion did not supply a satisfactory answer. Holy books are constituted of "words on paper." Ideas do not necessarily represent reality. Words and ideas are different from what they represent!

There should be a way to scientifically determine whether life has meaning beyond mere existence. The only way to do this is to map the structure of reality. This is science. Ideas are verified when evidence "in reality" corroborates statement truth.

Understanding the structure of reality was a step by step process. It is similar to a jigsaw puzzle when one has not seen the finished picture. The puzzle is completed only when every piece finds its place. Each piece informs how it fits with other pieces. Pieces mesh into sections. Sections join to show the whole picture.

The analogy comes full circle by substituting scientific facts for puzzle pieces. Pieces represent evidential facts. Scientific understanding relates one fact to others. Puzzle sections correspond to higher-level concepts and principles of physics.

Principles enabled a systematic arranging of the diagrams into a hierarchy to represent what physics is all about -- the structure of reality. The structure defines how everything interrelates. But, it did not immediately answer all questions.

Big questions of philosophy and science are answerable only when the structure of reality is reexamined through the lens of other disciplines. Multidisciplinary research produced a categorical understanding of everything.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

In early 1970, my life radically changed. I was a teacher of science. One of my students looked ahead in his book and asked: "What is color?" I answered: "A thing's color is all color but the color that you see."

I immediately recognized this "color paradigm" could help resolve the philosophy problem of idealism and subjectivism. As a question: Is there a "world out there" or is it some kind of illusory projection?

Empirical science rests on the idea the physical world is "out there." Though not seriously contested, that idea has not been properly established: until now. The color paradigm provided a way to explain that the physical world is separate from one's awareness of it. Later, we learn quantum theory suggests there is no outside reality. A deeper understanding of reality must reconcile these contradictory views.

Seven days after the student asked the color question I had a profound experience. I asked a student to find a large sheet of paper. My mind rushed to fill it in. The result was the Where Aspect Diagram. It was a "generalization" of the color paradigm. It was a revelation, which I wrote down as it occurred. There is a photo of it in customer photos.

The Where Aspect Diagram was packed with information. When I tried to explain what happened and what I was learning, most friends and family members believed I experienced a mental breakdown. They didn't suppose that, because of any unusual behavior on my part, but because of what I was saying. I became a patient in a mental clinic for about a month. I quickly learned not to say much about what I was experiencing.

I was compelled to track down the source of this revelation and learn why it occurred. It was no coincident! Extraordinary experiences continued. There was no denying something astonishing was happening. When someone experiences a real revelation, it is quite unsettling. I began delineating the structure of reality.

Within five days after the revelation, I stopped sleeping. I then realized the body rests; the mind sleeps. My mind was functioning 24 hours a day trying to understand what was happening and why. My eyes were so dry during daytime that it took a few weeks to adjust. I did lie down and rest during the night, but my mind just kept reasoning to understand. When a hospital nurse would ask, "Are you sleeping OK?" I smiled, and answered, "As well as I can!"

I quickly understood most people's minds only function with respect to the physical world. When a mind "awakens," it can function independently of the physical world. I realized what real "born again" meant. It is the mind, or spirit, resurrecting: beginning to function on its own, again!

Most scientific revolutions result from breakthrough efforts of lone individuals. This is not something I intended to do. It is something that happened to me, and I responded with scientific honesty. That unexpected experiences lead to new ways of understanding is no surprise. That is how scientific revolutions often begin. And, this was the big one.

Physics principles enabled a systematic arranging of the diagrams into a hierarchy to represent what physics is all about - the structure of reality. The structure defines how everything interrelates. However, it did not immediately answer all questions.

The big questions of philosophy and science are answerable only when the structure of reality is reexamined through the lens of other disciplines. Multidisciplinary research produced a categorical understanding of everything.

A multidisciplinary examination of reality's structure led to an explicit defining of consciousness. It is derived from an equation - the "Theory of Everything" equation.

The book states what I learned. It says little about the amazing experiences that led to the extraordinary knowledge and understanding described in this book.
