________________ BEYOND PHYSICS & METAPHYSICS The Emerging Cosmological Threshold Swami Om Poorna Swatantra It is well known that Einstein's formulation that E= mca was to revolutionise our understanding of the nature of the material world and our very notions of Reality itself. Since then we have come to believe that (a) matter is nothing but a wraped up or condensed form of energy, and that (b) Reality is relative, i.e. there is nothing absolute about it as explained by Newton and accepted by physics ever since. There can be no Reality independent of the observing Subject. A universe without an observing Subject—the I, the Self- remains inconceivable. Such a universe is devoid of space and time, top and bottom, left and right, before and after. All these relations become conceivable only when there emerges an observing Subject, which renders the irreducible point of reference to Reality. With the emergence of such a Subject. Reality assumes a functioning centre. And once this centre is given, there then emerges left and right before and after, etc. i.e. time and space including all their variations and permutations. And every conceivable point of the universe then becomes both absolute and relative. Absolute because every point to itself remains the absolute centre of that universe) like every point of the earth is the centre to itself or like any observing Subject, which in that act of observance forms to itself the very centre of the cosmos. Nevertheless they also remain relative in as much as each point is attributed a position relative to space and time.
