Universal Reality is a revolutionary new science based Theory of Everything. The fundamental insight of Universal Reality is that understanding the universe as a program running in the medium of existence called the quantum vacuum leads to simple and elegant solutions of many of the most important problems of science and philosophy.
The apparent incompatibility of quantum theory and general relativity is due to their inconsistent models of spacetime. Both model spacetime as a preexisting container for events but quantum theory assumes a fixed container while the dynamic spacetime of relativity depends on the presence of mass. Universal Reality resolves this incompatibility by demonstrating how spacetime is actually computed by quantum events in a manner consistent with both theories in the form of particle entanglement networks.
Universal Reality also explains why everything in the universe is constantly moving at the speed of light through spacetime. This is a little known implication of relativity of fundamental importance to the nature of the present moment, the arrow of time, and understanding relativity.
Another important new discovery is that there are two kinds of time, clock time and the time of the present moment. The very fact that space travelers always meet up in the same present moment with different elapsed clock times demonstrates there are two different kinds of time. The existence of two kinds of time immediately solves all sorts of important scientific and philosophical issues from the limits of time travel to the geometry of the universe.
The world we experience around us is a simulation produced by our minds rather than the true nature of reality. Universal Reality examines the simulation in detail to discover the true nature of reality hidden within the veils of illusion. This ultimately reveals that the apparent physicality of the world is an illusion that obscures its true information nature.
Universal Reality also provides the only truly convincing and logical theory of consciousness. Consciousness is clearly not anything physical so it cannot be the product of a physical universe in the usual sense of the word, and can only be explained by attributing the essential quality of consciousness to reality itself. Thus consciousness is not produced by human minds. Consciousness is simply the self-manifesting immanence of the information of things manifesting within our minds. Immanence is the invisible glow of existence in all things that is invisible to our eyes but manifests as consciousness in mind.
In its recognition of the immanence of reality Universal Reality also puts realization on a firm scientific and rational basis by defining it as understanding and directly experiencing the true immanent information nature of reality without any religious or metaphysical implications.
Universal Reality also provides logical solutions for the two most fundamental philosophical questions. Why something rather than nothing exists, and why what exists is what exists. This leads to the discovery of literally scores of important new insights about reality that can't be found anywhere else.
Universal Reality provides the most comprehensive and consistent Theory of Everything available. From a few simple, reasonable and verifiable assumptions a completely unified Theory of Everything naturally emerges that is completely consistent with modern science and also seamlessly incorporates consciousness, existence, the present moment, and realization, all essential aspects of reality about which science itself has had nothing meaningful to say.
The search for the Theory of Everything is the ultimate quest and it promises discovery of the ultimate treasure. Universal Reality makes this quest as simple, clear and enjoyable as possible while we explore the deepest secrets of the universe where the greatest most wonderful mysteries of both reality and ourselves are waiting to be discovered
About the Author: Edgar L. Owen was born April 1st, 1941 and quickly realized that reality is not as it appears to be. A child prodigy, he entered the University of Tulsa aged 15 and received a B.S. with honors in science and mathematics with a minor in philosophy at 18 before completing several more years of graduate study in physics and philosophy.
In the early 60's he moved to the Haight-Ashbury in San Francisco where he hung out with notables from the Beat Generation, and conducted an intense personal study of the nature of mind and consciousness. From there he traveled to Japan where he lived for three years studying Zen and Buddhist philosophy while subsisting as a ronin English teacher.
Upon returning to the US he began a career in computer science writing numerous programs in artificial intelligence, simulations, graphics, and cellular automata while designing and managing advanced computer systems for the New York Federal Reserve Bank and AT&T. He then left the corporate world to start his own software business marketing his own CAD programs, which he ran for a number of years. Currently he owns a premier Internet gallery of fine Ancient Art and Classical Numismatics at EdgarLOwen.com.
Deeply immersed in nature since childhood, and always considering it the ultimate source of his inspiration and knowledge of reality, he has served as Chairman of his local Environmental Commission and organized several campaigns to protect the local environment and its wildlife.
Over the last several years he has worked to combine and organize the results of a lifetime of study of the various aspects of reality into a single coherent Theory of Everything. He now spends most of his time exploring the wonderful awesome mystery of reality and how it can be experienced more fully and deeply and enjoying his existence within it.
Edgar currently lives in Northern NJ in a big old house on top of a hill where he communes with nature and enjoys the company of his wild visitors including the occasional human. Edgar is currently single and looking for a younger housekeeper companion. He can be contacted at Edgar@EdgarLOwen.com.
