Three Treatises, One Knowledge, One Talk—On the Universe

From disorder to order—the form of life in the universe

It is difficult for people to understand without the help of completely avoiding the confusion of the sages of the ages, and it is even more difficult to understand the "known answer" that cannot be completely incorporated into any of them under the basic same question; Falsificationism can be said to be the best way now, because it is not negating another "part", so in my opinion it is not only not the end of rational logic but the beginning, you can say that it denies "perfect reason" in scientific logic and admits the finitude of science, but it is precisely because of this that it philosophically returns to human reason and affirms and recognizes the limitations of human cognitive ability and the infinite nature of exploration, so it is concluded that it is unreasonable to negate logic, but should be a deeper understanding of logic and reason; To cite just one example, because before accepting the updated system to integrate the knowledge of the predecessors, it is the most complete and meaningful system of integrating knowledge recognized by the world at present, and the different systems before it have their successors analyzing it in detail, although I do not agree with those overwhelming analyses, but there is no need to give examples one by one, after all, under the latest system of falsificationism of the current scholars, "truth" can coexist, and it is also convenient for them to explain their ideas to the world so that the world can understand; Still, I don't think this system will be very efficient, it's like a "kaleidoscope", can we make it more effective, that's why I wrote this article "From Disorder to Order: The Life Form of the Universe";

1 Philosophical Problems of Philosophy

Over the years, my thoughts and feelings have gradually become a system, and by chance I wrote a book called "Three Stone Collections" around 2014 to elaborate slightly, but later due to the complexity of the world, I finally had more opportunities to continue to recount. It was only last year that the harvest of the heart was recounted, and some words were found in the world one by one. This article provides a clearer analysis of some fundamental issues. These issues do not necessarily have an impact on academic research, but they all confuse the understanding of the world. For example, the description of the discipline, the scope of research objects of basic disciplines such as physics and chemistry can be included in the natural world, and it is not easy for the world to cause confusion; Another example is history, although the definitions made by literature are not necessarily in nature, they are all within the scope of human understanding, and it is not easy to be confused about them; But on the other hand, philosophy is different, the concept of philosophy is "the study of the worldview and the party", to make this definition really requires great wisdom, it can be said that the generalization is comprehensive and concrete, but can people really understand it?! I don't think so, the objects of philosophical research, "worldview" and "fang**", are still too abstract for most people. It is difficult to define what is a "world view" and what is a "square **", and it becomes even more difficult to define it when it comes to philosophy, so it cannot be said that it is meaningless to analyze such issues.

1.1 Philosophical Speculation

Philosophy, if it is explained in just two words, can be "speculative", speculation is philosophy, thinking about the understanding of the essence, discerning the elaboration of thinking. So whether this thought is indiscriminate, for example, if someone pats his head and has an idea, it is a philosophical thought. I don't think so, philosophical thinking lies in the search for the essence of philosophy, which can be said to be an immutable truth. Thinking is the determination of this goal, and discernment is the use of philosophical logic to describe the goal, so the use of form and logic in philosophical research has broken the single way in some sciences that can only rely on real things.

1.2 Scope of Philosophy

The scope of philosophy, philosophy is the speculation of truth, which determines that it does not necessarily need to have a comparison of actual things, or even a comparison of actual nature. Actual nature is different from actual things, and actual nature is a "name", such as Gongsun Long's "horse", which can exist in people's minds, while actual things are the "white horse" in front of them, that is, the things around them. So what is the relationship between the scope of the definition of the nature of truth and the actual nature and the actual things?! The third is the inclusive relationship. The essence of truth contains the name of all actual nature, and the name of actual nature encompasses all practical things, and if it is easier to understand it, it is the world of truth, the actual world, and the world around us. It may be easier to understand that the world of truth encompasses the actual world, and the actual world encompasses the world around us. Then, if we look at the three in a fixed way, the truth is the eternal truth, the reality that actually exists, and the things that can be used, and philosophy is certainly useless from this point of view. But if we see the change of things, the change of the scope of actual nature itself, philosophy is fundamental, and it is of great use to everything that is useless, to be useless.

1.3 Philosophical Significance

The meaning of philosophy, once its role is clarified, is no longer so vague and ineffable. Before Aristotle, man had no name for physics, only philosophy; Before Newton, human beings had no name for gravity, only their philosophy; Before Einstein, human beings had no name for gravitational field, only their philosophical ......, and we could not say "nothing" and "being" to things that human beings could not perceive for the time being, but could only call them "nothing", and "nothingness" was the category of philosophical inquiry, and philosophy was "true knowledge" or "truth". From this, we can know that the mission of philosophy is to be a "prophet", that is, to pursue the essence of philosophy with the logic of philosophy, to explore the unknown with human wisdom, and to complete its phased value when it returns to "nature", that is, to complete the transformation from metaphysical to metaphysical. A name can exist in the world of truth, or in man's understanding of the actual natural world, so man has the ability to understand the truth, and we should not be sad about the practicality of a philosophy, but we should be glad for it. Aristotle's philosophy does not disappear into the world of truth with people's understanding of physics; Nor did Newton and Einstein diminish their real contribution to philosophical thinking by writing little about their own philosophical thinking and applying it.

In the future, the development of philosophy will mainly depend on two points, one is the affirmation of truth, and the other is the cognitive boundary of human beings themselves, and the two complement each other.

2 Philosophical Answers to Philosophy (From Disorder to Order: The Forms of Life in the Universe)

After human beings became self-conscious, aware of themselves and the outside world, an important central question was born, and then mankind had the first and only discipline, philosophy, which summarized this problem as a concrete and abstract description of "the judgment and understanding of life (the world) itself". It is said to be concrete because it gives a complete description of the problem, so why is it said to be abstract, because the problem itself is difficult to define before there is a precise definition of the relevant noun, so no matter how detailed the description is, it can only be abstract or even extreme to the point of unspeakable for some people. How should we understand this question as a contemporary person? Is there a descriptive unity between the original philosophy and the many disciplines that have spawned it, as well as the development of humanity as a whole?

2.1 The development of human philosophy – the development of philosophy itself and the disciplines from which it derives

In the initial stage of philosophy, a single cognition evolved into multiple branches; This kind of cognition has a context to be found, and the form of expression is surprisingly consistent, which may be just a coincidence in the history of philosophy and the development of human civilization, but this kind of coincidence is inevitable under the human mind.

After Thales, Pythagoras, Pilang, Epicurus, and even the three saints of Western philosophy, Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle (384-322 BC) were born, and philosophy completed its original mission, gradually introducing mankind into the temple of rational thinking, and then developing many disciplines.

Similar evolutions took place in Eastern philosophy almost simultaneously, and under the guidance of the same starting point, Eastern philosophers developed it in the direction of practicality. Jizi gave "Hong Fan Jiuchou" to the Duke of Zhou, and the latter completed the origin of Eastern philosophy "Zhou Yi", and then among the hundreds of sons, there was Lao Tzu, who advocated the way of heaven, and Confucius, who asked Lao Tzu, and Mencius, who developed and perfected Confucius's thought; If the three sages of Western philosophy are Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle, then the three sages of Eastern philosophy are Laozi, Confucius, and Mencius (372-289 BC), which also laid the rational characteristics in Western culture and the humanistic background in Eastern culture, and human civilization has also moved from a simple "one" to a colorful different side.

2.2 The Basis of Human Philosophy – The Materiality of Life

Human beings can think because of the existence of a human being as a material basis. Putting aside the spiritual world of pure intellect and the ontology of the Tao...... Regardless of this, there should be no doubt that people as human beings can think about themselves, but it is strange that people rarely include the study of life phenomena in the current philosophical perspective, or even as a reference element, which should be the case today when life sciences are fruitful. Philosophy is a product of thinking, but if this "product" is collected only from thinking, it does not make sense and does not conform to reality.

In fact, the starting point of human philosophy is precisely derived from reality, and the sages of the past generations have not departed from it; We do not intend to expand people's understanding of philosophy here, but we must emphasize that the materiality of life itself and its development are of great significance to philosophy, and the process of life from singularity to "everything", from simple to complex, just like the development of philosophy itself, this process itself embodies its inherent philosophy. We will now make a progressive analysis of his life itself.

Life is life, and its origin should contain three elements, which are: 1. matter, 2. order, 3. information, only with these three elements can there be life; and correspondingly, the exchange of matter, orderly movement, and information transmission are the three important manifestations of life. In biology, the definition of life is "the composite phenomenon presented by organisms composed of genetic material", where genetic material is a specific information transmitter, and the process can be abstractly understood as an orderly transmission of information, so the philosophical abstract description of life as three elements and their corresponding manifestations can be mutually corroborated with the definition in biology.

2.3 Extension of Human Philosophy – The Philosophical Nature of the Universe

2.3.1 The materiality of the universe

The universe contains the composition of its substances, some of which are known to human beings and many that are unknown to human beings, and a considerable part of these substances are influencing each other all the time, including human beings themselves, and we cannot deny that the universe contains all the substances that constitute human beings, which the universe and human beings reflect the same philosophical nature in matter.

2.3.2 The orderliness of the universe

The parts of the universe as we know it are all orderly, and all of them can be described by a number of rules, including all science itself. In microscopic quantum mechanics, there are cognitive boundaries of the present person, but despite this, it is certain that it can be described by some rules. Human beings themselves are orderly and descriptive, and the universe that contains them is also orderly and descriptible.

2.3.3 The informationality of the universe

There is information about all human beings in the universe, including all of humanity's past, present, and even future. Human beings change themselves all the time in the acquisition of information about the universe, and we can infer that there is no information beyond the universe in human beings.

In philosophy, we can use the word universe to summarize everything that man knows, including his life and the world he understands. This word is completely equivalent to the sum total of the spiritual world, the world of true knowledge and the world of the Tao, etc., if it exists as a whole, we understand it as material as not as good as "life", after human beings have gone through thousands of years, from "non-one" to "all-being", it is necessary for us to order it at this time, and this order must be on the same standard. In physics, Einstein's ultimate goal after discovering "true knowledge" is to unify the field, and philosophy can take a small step forward in this point after being silent for a long time?
