If the universe operates under a binary principle, arbitrarily 0 and 1, based on the atomic spin of left and right, then interactions would not follow conventional mathematical principles. Instead, it would follow rules of binary arithmetic and algebra (e.g. 1+1=1, x+1 = x). In circuit design, 1s and os compounded with the usage of various gates allows the creation of greater functions, which can be used to create all the electronics we are familiar with. Atoms are essentially on/off states, and the empty clouds in which the electrons move are like logic gates. What atoms can potentially create, however, are beyond our comprehension.

It seems that spatial dimensions and time as we know it, could not exist without gravity, and the electro-strong/weak force. Water cannot flow, being pulled down a stream, or the molecular cohesion between tiny individual indivisible parts of water. Waterfalls could not exist without gravity. We all know that gravity warps time, so that the passage of time becomes a subjective experience. Watching the river flow, or an expensive timepiece move, is also a subjective experience, only meaningful to the onlooker.

To speak of time entails a subjective end. There is no objective, end of all things, but only a subjective perception that the end of a phase has come. If fate entails creation, since we are the creators of our own fate, then a universe without fate would occlude the possibility of any meaningful creation. Thus to quantitatively define the end in context of the beginning becomes a challenge that can be solved. Is the end, which we perceive to be caused by events and factors from between and all the way from the beginning, a byproduct of causality? Or is it more deeply rooted in the laws of physics, requiring a million formulas of unimaginable length and difficulty to be calculated at once? For the universe, this is a natural and spontaneous task.

“You were created from the laws which governed life, conditions regarding your birth, down to every atom, and then heaven left your life to you.”

-Quetzalcoatl

Why is water traditionally used to represent time? From a physical perspective, the movement of water is represented in fluid dynamics, which is the study of water, by a formula of volume over time. When a three-dimensional solid or liquid is given a fourth dimension, movement is created in our perception. Thus, water in the form of a river, or an ocean, is the perfect medium to describe time and was chosen by the sages to be immortalized in countless writings and literature over the ages.

If the notion of steadily flowing water, like a stream of thoughts, is enticing, then a vertical waterfall, which is an accelerating volume of fluid, increasingly majestic, and a natural geyser, equally as spectacular. Both of which, have a fifth dimension, which the speed of the water changes, powered by the sheer size of the Earth in gravity. At the bottom of the waterfall, there are jagged rocks and frothing waters, that create ripples and wave motion, that bounce and interfere with each other creating a mesh-like pattern. And if flow of liquid is continuous, we can monitor the change in speed of water as the shape of its container changes, from rainwater into a funnel, or an ocean into a stream. Indeed, water is meaningless without the bounds of the container we define it with, and objects meaningless without the empty space that fills the void.

This is just the beginning of a ceaseless stream of meaning. We can add pressure, density and height of water to further add realism to the mixture. The water could be cool and relaxing, or turbulently hot, which again changes the speed and density of the water. Finally, we must remember individual things that float on the surface of the moving stream, which displace and make the water level of the river banks rise higher, just slightly. And the sun rises, illuminating these small boats and ships, as well as imbuing the water the color of the blue sky. Perhaps these objects and ships are our memories, cherished moments or difficult situations, all floating and mixing, on individual streams on different levels that cross but never meet, to no end.

“Business is Life”

Modeling the business under Green and environmental policies, like Ralphs, Pavilions (Vons), and countless other business models have done, is an excellent initiative, but it may not be enough. The proper way to model a corporation (as well as government) is on nature and universal law. The Green and environmentalist movement are only a small part of the whole nature; they only draw on what the most cutting-edge modern day science tells us - but knowledge is limited by technological progress. Relying on the rate of progress is not enough; we need to go back to nature.

How is it possible to understand nature without science? Through intuition, through experience. There is no sure fire way for businessmen to learn from nature. Each person must take his or her own journey through nature, and debrief and analyze what they learned in the end. People cannot learn about nature just merely from business books that gives tips on how to maximize profit by applying environmental principles; they must experience nature firsthand, think about nature, and discuss nature with other businessmen.

More specifically, men should model their business on the movement of the heavens. Thus, another source of inspirations are the laws of physics. The inverse square law of how half the profits should be derived from local source, a fourth from state, an eight nationally, and a sixteenth internationally, is one great method to earn a profit. There are also basic astronomical themes of arranging the business structure. A business works annually, because of the solar cycle. The best type of business report is quarterly and also once per four years. Company goals as well as debriefing should be set at certain intervals of the year.

Indeed, when solar and lunar eclipses occur, deep meaning towards human life is present. Also, when certain planets line up, or when the solar system aligns with the galactic center, it is an excellent time to consider business ideals. Not because, a magical force is present, but rather, because a certain cycle has been completed. Fulfillment, was always the theme in ancient Chinese astronomy. When the moon is full, it is considered especially auspicious, or lucky. The Chinese even have a holiday dedicated towards the moon. In addition, life as we know would certainly not exist without the moon. The moon causes tides, the tilt of the earth, the four seasons, as well as the stability of earth’s rotation. Also, the moon offers a source of light at night, and businesses can maximize this source of light, instead of building more lamps, by aligning their enterprises to the position and intensity of moonlight.

Empirically, we still do not know why floods and earthquakes occur. Too often, natural disasters occur is because humans disrespect the environment. Not just polluting, but being unprepared for events is also disrespecting nature, because being acting impervious to natural disaster is a form of of shallow pride. Businessmen must be prepared for hard events, and lead the people in the vanguard when trouble arises. For example, warehouses, offices, and stores must be earthquake-resistant. Also, when fire or earthquake occurs, there should be emergency plans prepared.
