In an age of certainty

Waxing philosophical

It's not a matter of being heavier on lighter matters but of being a bit lighter on heavierlighter on heavier matters.

End of Little Gidding - Four Quartets - T. S. Eliot

The end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time.  At the source longest river the voice of the hidden waterfall.  Not known because not looked for but heard, half heard in the stillness between two waves the sea.  Quick now, here now, always a condition of complete siimplicity and all shall be well and all manner shall when the tongues of the flame are infolded and the fire and the rose are one.

An Abstract

Quantum theory has been developed into a Standard Model that has been highly successful in terms of accounting for many properties of matter and the energy tat matter radiates, the prediction of new experimental results and in its use in technological innovations. Yet attempts to understand what is hidden beyond the observable experimental results have only led to various and conflicting interpretations. Although there is just one type of approach to the quantum findings where a wide range of experimental results are accounted for in a determinate causal interpretation, and which includes a detailed description of a wave property and defined particle trajectories.

Here we present an argument for and then a development of such a causal interpretation where a cause that would have nonlocal effects is indirectly represented by means of diagrams, while other causal properties are verbally described. We then find that this hypothesis can be supported by available large scale natural evidence of where such a cause can also be thought to act. So that only thus are we able to clearly relate properties of a nonlocally acting cause to Big Bang cosmological theory, observable astronomical findings and evidence of living organisms. We suggest how further observation and experiment could support and further develop a general theory of a distinct cause that can only be described from its effects in addition to those of the known forces.
