The Essence Of Life

When you ask a modern biologist to define the word life, he describes a leaving thing. That is to say he whinks to you the meaning of the word. Or in short, he does not take the definition that seriously. Perhars we should not. It seems obvious what a leaving thing is? May be it is because you were indoctrinated to identify some things as leaving things and others as non leaving things. Maybe everything is the same when we zoom in the lense.What drives me to seek a definition of the word 'leaving' is my worry that we may be mising the true essence of what we call 'leaving thing'. So I ask how you say of a leaving in a simple sentence. I will summarise it in a sentence:LEAVING THING: Anything that can, by its own volition, take energy from its surrounding and use it at its own pace.This is the true essence of what we call a leaving thing. This means that to leave is just to take in energy and using it at own's pase. Complexity is not the essence of life, rather it is a means of sustaining life in a chaotic enviroment. Reproduction is not the essence of life. It is a means of continuing life. Locomovion is not what a leaving thin IS. It is what it DOES.Such definitions are good as it creats a notion of 'measure'. Rather than seeing the question of life as a black and white issue, we can think of the measure of life in an object. How alife is a crystal? How alife is a man? A rock? Etc. A magnet is more alife than a rock etc. A demagnetised magnet is less alife than a magnetised one, or if you like, the latter is more awake etcQ: What is the gist of using energy at own pace?A:AmplificationThe amplification is the process by which lesser power is used to control the flow of more powerfull energy. This is a characteristic of leaving things and infact, this is what it means to leave: to switch on and off various energy pumps. We can picture a fractal scenario. The lesser power in turn is controled by even lesser power and so on ad infinitum. You can define 'own's volution' as the limiting control as the ultimate energy neaded to switch the chain reactions tend to zero. This is to say from without, it appears as though the switching of energy is ultimately causeless!It may be challenging to regonise a rundimentary amplifier. However, infact in physics, a chaotic system can be seen as an amplifier. Such is how a flapping butterfly in Japan can create tornadoes in America! Moreover the equation that measures chaos is closely similar to that of modelling fractals. It involves the natural logarithm. But can it realy be said that the chaotic amplification is due to smaller energy somehow controlling bigger energy? Maybe yes. I can only illustrate to you that it is possible. Then in an infinite chain of causes like we saw above, we can eventualy blame the unpredictability of a chaotic system on the existence of own volitions in the system and hence life!To illustrate a very rundimentary amplification, consider a river flowing. Up there on the hill, there is a huge stone. The stone is about to role down to the river. However, a smaller stone is preventing it. The smaller stone in turn is prevented from rolling away by some heep of sand that can be easily blown by wind. So the wind blowing the sand will swith chain reaction. Eventually, the huge rock will role down blocking the river, controlling a huge power that is driving the water. With a matter of brainstorming or carefull exerminations, I hope you will notice such amplifications in nature and that smaller power controlling a series of larger power in a fractal manner is indead the true cause of chaos. Then because the formular for chaos involves something tending to zero as another tends to infinity, we can indead say that there is an owns volition control of energy usage pace in a chaotic system.

Thanks alot. I am glad that you read this. The relation between fractals and chaos dawned to me clearer when I was typing this. Small events ends up causing huge effects in a chaotic system. A flapping butterfly ends up causing the tornado. If we scale down, what caused butterfly to flap in turn was perharps a bacteria flaging its flagelum. What caused the flagelum to flap was perharps a wiggling atom. The wiggling atom in turn was caused by a quantum fluctuation. You see the parten? It is fractals that are teaching us something remarkable about causality. The infinitesimal spark that trigers all is NOT something that originated far back in time during bigbang nor is it due to eternal regress of blind causes and effect. It rather originates in a present moment from a zero point!

Or rather a new universe created at every heartbeat.:)

The universe as a whole and everything in it is a self organizing system. I guess the next question is How? What is the force behind this...the intelligent force. I´ve heard it explained as the Universal Life Force which is ether/prana that surrounds and permeates all things....as well as the individual life force/kundalini. The ether takes on the different functions of the elements..earth, water, fire, air and space. It is the interaction of the different functions of the elements, their dominance, balance and imbalances that create everything in the Universe, including our bodies and our health. The universe is a dynamic imbalance...otherwise there would be no changes...
