Psycanics: A Science of Being and Life

The ESSENCE of Life: Wisdom, Power, Value and LoveJoy

We can see LIFE all around us and in us. We can see that the universe has a LIFE FORCE creating, running, and animating parts of it, and that that FORCE is infinitely greater, more intelligent, and more powerful than we are. We, as humans, do not even understand our own bodies, much less are be able to create them or maintain them.

Our question, then, is what exactly is LIFE? Understanding LIFE is a way to understand more about ourselves, our origin and essence.

But most importantly, understanding LIFE is absolutely essential, critical, to understanding the nature of our separation from the SUPREME BEING and how to Return. We are LIFE, and we need to know exactly what that entails, because what we want in life is more LIFE. The search to BE evermore LIFE is another way to state the Existential Imperative. What we are experiencing as human beings is a lot less of LIFE than the INFINITY of IT.

What is LIFE?

Let us begin by introducing the Ectropy<>Entropy Polarity.

As matter and energy are the same thing (E=mc2), the word energy should be understood to include the special case of "rigid" pattern energy that is matter. In quantum physics, energy-matter itself is distortions of space-time, so that space-time, which springs out of the Quantum Field, is all that exists.Observing the universe, we can see that the universe, energy*, tends to move in two opposing "directions." There is no exact word for this. The words "life" and "death" are included but not inclusive, so we will borrow and expand concepts taken from the science of thermodynamics. These are the concepts of "ectropy" and "entropy."

• Ectropy is the intelligent, causal, organizing force that combines materials and synergizes energy to create ever more powerful systems. It distinguishes matter and energy types, orders and organizes them, builds systems and grows things. It increases energy states; it heats things "up." We will call it the "up" force. LIFE is the ectropic force in the universe.
• Entropy is the "dumb" (not-intelligent), decaying force that tries to pull everything "down" to inert, homogenous matter (dust) and minimal energy (cold). Entropy in living things is aging and death. As regards matter, it is randomness, homogeneity, and chaos. We will also call it the "down" force. Matter represents the entropic force in the universe.

Heat is a measure of the velocity of movement.LIFE = ectropy works to organize matter and energy into ever more complex, powerful, and "hot"* (energized) systems. Entropy or decay works to disrupt and "downgrade" energy systems into chaos, cold, and death. The following polarity table will help make this clear:

The Ectropy<>Entropy Polarity
Ectropy = the Power-ful, Life Force, Spirit, Heat Pulls things “up” into ever higher states of organization, energy, and power.
CONSCIOUSNESS and INTELLIGENCE includes perception, memory and retaining knowledge Wise, Creative	CAUSE, Power, Control Creator	HIGHER VALUE (eg. living things are more valuable than matter-ial ones)
Distinguishes the differences and properties of things and energies. Orders and organizes them according to their nature and capabilities. Plans and predicts.	Uses Power and Force to produce desired results. Changes and Transforms. Synergizes to create systems. Controls, Channels, Moves and Transports.	Increases the order, energy, and power of things and therefore increases the VALUE of things.
Lacking intelligence. No perception, no awareness, no mind, no memory, no knowledge, no wisdom, not creative.	No Causal ability, no Power = EFFECT. Acted up, moved and controlled by external causes.	Decreases Value. Turns distinction into homogeneity; systems into disorder and chaos.
DUMB	EFFECT	MINIMUM VALUE
Entropy = the Decay and Death Force, Matter, Cold Pulls things "down" into ever more homogenous and lower energy states.

Therefore, we can first define LIFE as the ectropic force in the universe. But let us not stop there.

LIFE from another Point of View

Let’s go into the nature of Life deeper and from another angle. What are the characteristics and qualities of Life that permit it to be ectropic? What properties are you referring to when you say something is alive? What are the differences between a rock and plant and animal and a human being, as each represents a different level of LIFE?

Let’s make this question easy by just analyzing the two ends of the polarity Life<>Matter. You will be the pole of Life; a rock will be pole of Matter.

What are the differences between you and a rock? Before you read my list of characteristics, make your own list. Make a list of the differences, of the qualities that you have more of than a rock has.

Here is my list of some of the differences:

Awareness, perception, consciousness, mind, intelligence, knowledge, memory, creativity, will, decision, causal ability which includes the ability to change and move self, and the ability to change and move other things, the ability to create; the ability to decide value, to e-value-ate; the ability to love self and others, self-esteem, emotions; and the capacity to be happy and to suffer—to name a few.

Would you agree that a rock is not much good at any of that? Would you agree that these differences exist between you and a rock?

So there are notable differences between your BEing and the being of a rock. Those differences are LIFE, the energies and abilities of LIFE.

The Distilled ESSENCE of LIFE

That list contains an unwieldy number of characteristics, qualities, and abilities to have to enumerate every time we want to talk about LIFE. We need something simpler to work with. We can observe that many of these LIFE energies are similar or related. On close observation, we find we can classify and distill all of these properties into four basic groups.

1. All those properties related to consciousness, perception, knowing, memory, knowledge, intuition, creativity, etc.
2. All the characteristics related to Cause, to Power: decision, creation, change, movement, etc.


3. All things related to Value and the determination of Value.
4. All the energies that are FEELings: the emotions, love, happiness and (emotional) pain. Let us make this clearer by distributing the characteristics of LIFE into a table with four columns.

The ONE LIFE FORCE consists of four basic elements:
CONSCIOUSNESS	CAUSE	VALUE	FEELings positive and negative
Awareness	Will	Assign Relative Values	Positive FEELing
Perception	Word, Promise	Good<>Bad	Positive Emotions
Experience	Decide, Determine, Commit	Assign Value to Self; Self-Esteem	Happiness
Distinguish	Change, Move	Assign Value to Other	Love
Know	Persist, be Constant	Deserve<>Undeserving
Memory, Knowledge	Design, Plan	Worthy<>Unworthy	AntiLove
Intelligence	Order	Less than<>More than	UPS: Unhappiness, Pain and Suffering
Intuition	Organize	Inferior<>Superior	Negative Emotions
Creativity	CREATE, Manifest	Should Be<> Should Not Be	Negative FEELing

We need a designator, a name, for each column; one word that will represent all the forms of energy in that column. We will use the following labels as the English words most representative of the overall concept of each column: Wisdom, Power, Value, and LoveJoy. (Psycanics proves that love and happiness are the same thing, thus the term: LoveJoy.)

To make this perfectly clear, we rewrite the LIFE ESSENCE table with the "bottom line" designator for each of the 4 groups of Life Energies:

CONSCIOUSNESS	CAUSE	VALUE	FEELings positive and negative
Awareness	Will	Assign Relative Values	Positive FEELing
Perception	Word, Promise	Good<>Bad	Positive Emotions
Experience	Decide, Determine, Commit	Assign Value to Self; Self-Esteem	Happiness
Distinguish	Change, Move	Assign Value to Other	Love
Know	Persist, be Constant	Deserve<>Undeserving
Memory, Knowledge	Design, Plan	Worthy<>Unworthy	AntiLove
Intelligence	Order	Less than<>More than	UPS: Unhappiness, Pain and Suffering
Intuition	Organize	Inferior<>Superior	Negative Emotions
Creativity	CREATE, Manifest	Should Be<> Should Not Be	Negative FEELing
WISDOM	POWER	VALUE	LOVEJOY
The ESSENCE of LIFE: Four "Energies."

LIFE also has the qualities of SPace, Unity (Interrelatedness), Synergy, and others, but we can ignore these for our present purposes.Thus, we can abbreviate LIFE* to Wisdom, Power, Value, and LoveJoy, abbreviated WPVLJ. These are the basic characteristics of LIFE LIFE = ONE = SPIRIT. They are the basic characteristics of you as a psycan, an individualized unit of ONE-LIFE-ENERGY. They are the most powerful energies on the planet and control your life and that of every human being.

They are also the key to your Return to the ONE. The ONE is the INFINITY of these qualities: WPVLJ (Wisdom, Power, Value, LoveJoy). Your return to the ONE is an expansion of your present level of BEing to BE more and evermore of these LIFE energies, until you are ALL of them again. As you already are ALL of LIFE, that expansion is achieved primarily by discreating the counter-creation mass that is suppressing your experience of BEing these energies.The REALITY of Who You Are already exists; it is the experience of IT that you are missing.

We also call these four elements the ESSENCE energies of LIFE, or the ESSENCE of BEing, or just ESSENCE, capitalized, when we are talking of them at the level of the SUPREME BEING. We will capitalize only the first letter, "Essence" when we are speaking of them at the human level.

We also call them the "Nuclear Energies of BEing," and the "Quantum Field Properties" or "Quantum Properties." All these terms refer to the same thing: WPVLJ (Wisdom, Power, Value, LoveJoy). The word we use depends on the point of view we wish to evoke in that sentence.
We use any and all of the following terms to refer to these characteristics of LIFE:

• LIFE Energy, or the LIFE Energies.
  
• Essence of LIFE, Essence of BEing, or the Essence of Spirit.
  
• The Essence Energies, or just Essence.
  
• The Quantum Field Energies, or Quantum Energies, or Quantum
  Properties.
  
• The Nuclear Energies of BEing.
  
• Wisdom, Power, Value, LoveJoy.
  
• WPVLJ, or WPV→LJ, or W→P→V→LJ.

We call them "energies," although this is not necessarily correct: at least the Quantum Property of Cause-Will-Power is not an energy. However, we have no other term, unless you prefer to call them "Quantum Field Static Substance."

Every "BEing," whether a plant, animal, or human, is a Life entity and so has some degree of these four Life Energies.

Furthermore, everything that exists is made of the ONE LIFE ENERGY; there is nothing else to make anything of. Therefore, even a rock is made of LIFE ENERGY, although we can detect this scientifically only at the atomic and quantum levels. To our everyday senses, a rock does not demonstrate much LIFE.

LIFE ESSENCE = SPIRIT = PSYCAN is really ONE energy—everything is ONE energy—but manifests as four qualities or rays. You may have seen white light going through a prism. One ray of white light enters, and four colors of light, like a rainbow, exit the prism.

The analogy of white light and a prism represents very well the LIFE ENERGY: ONE and Many at the same time.

Your basic BEing, what we call the psycan, is made of these four Life Essence Energies. They are subtle energies that you are BE-FEELing all the time, but you may not recognize them for what they are. They stand "behind" all your emotions, positive and negative. In fact, your emotions are the fourth Essence Energy, LoveJoy, as we shall prove.

The Essence Energies are the most powerful energies on the planet because they are the object of the Existential Imperative. Everybody on the planet is trying to BE and FEEL more of these energies at every moment, with every effort and behavior. The External Quest for more ESSENCE is the force that has and continues to shape all personal lives and history itself.
