There has been some confusion over terminology, mostly with the use of 'gravity' in the 'Laws of Gravities' in the appendix of Letters Upon the Mast. I was mainly concerned with observed limits of nature. One observed limit is the limit of 12 quarks. ('anitquarks' have been postulated giving 24, but this is a lateral stretch.) Another is the limit of crystal symmetries. This limit has been known for many years. Sometimes the limit is 230, and sometimes 232. Another limit is the discrete limit of four types of force, 1- gravity, 2- electromagnetism, 3- strong force, and 4- weak force.

I then tried to match these observed limits to the most common and very ancient metaphysical systems, that of the cabalah, the 'houses' of astrology, and the I Ching. I noticed that many of the best students of cabalah have attempted to relate a 'ten centered system' to a 'twelve centered system', but without complete success. John Dee's 'scripts' attempt was one, as were the charts of Crowley. Perhaps the problem was hidden in three dimensions. It was.

I have noticed that few take the time to see how the cabala map rolls out of the solar crystal. This is on illustration XVIII in the book. For most it would be about a forty minute proof. At some point I will make charts to give all the steps, making that easier.

I then looked at the main points of Koserev...:

1- Time is denser at effect and less dense at the source. By this it is meant that if you take a spring, attach it to a wall, and stand back pulling it that it will be noticed that time as measured by very sensitive clocks along the spring will run faster near the wall (effect) and slower near the person pulling the spring (cause). Here we have a great confusion with terms. Another thing noticed by Koserev has more to do with the definition of time. He noticed that one hallmark of time was it's 'irreversibility', that it ran one way. By this he meant that a movie of a diver jumping off a diving board, if the film is played in reverse, is completely absurd. So the question is where is there 'more' time? At the 'effect' where the clocks run faster? Or at the 'cause' were there are more possibilities and choice? For example the spring could be let go.

2- The second main point of Koserev was that there are discrete jumps when a biological system is introduced. There was a discrete jump, (an increase), between when a person near a clock did something very mental (mercurial) such as a math problem as opposed to something creatively artistic such as playing a violin. It seemed obvious that the discrete clock jumps were going along the 'lightning flash' known to students of cabala, the mental being 'Hod', and the creative 'Netzach'.

Combining the above observations I conclude that there is more 'time', or power or possibilities near the cause were there is least effect on clocks. This will continue to cause problems in terminology.

With this I very much object to the use of the 'word' dimension in referring to time. There are three dimensions, height, width, and depth. Entering time into this and calling it a 'forth' dimension is mixing apples with oranges. 'Event' creation within a reality field is time. It is observed change, and that change seems to have irreversible properties. There are not more dimensions than three, but there are certainly more reality fields than this. Events are changes within a reality field.

Reality fields are limited interdependent stages where events can take place. They include South Dakota and last night's dreams.

The 'limit' on these reality fields is 12 with the central (13th) that holds them together which must be something like 'all time', or 'no time', or eternal.

However, when our focus is in one specific reality field, the other reality fields are felt as energy or a type of emotion. Let us say that the focus is for the present 'common physical reality' noted as Taurus. If the focus changes to another reality field (a type of specific 'dream') then the 'physical reality' as the others are felt as types of energies or 'emotions'. There is then sort of an equality (as limit to quarks) about the twelve outside fields.

With that in mind, here is the clarification of terminology...:

The 'Laws of Gravities' part of the appendix was written about 1975. At that time I was thinking of each outside ball or reality field as a type of gravity. So on that page I am equating 'reality field' as 'energy element' and 'gravity'. So, in that sense..., 12 'gravities.

Notice that each ball only has four others touching it. It is for that reason that without the presence of life or 'bio' energy that force has a limit of four types (Gravity, electro, strong, weak). When 'bio' energy is introduced you can also introduce the other energies beyond the four adjacent directly. This is why Pavlita was able to harness these energies wherein force would go through materials as conductors that were insulators to electromagnetic force etc.

That should also help clear up the term 'stable energy focus' on the same appendix page.
