C-246.5 A unity of sciences
Once we escape the thralldom of B-ness and One-ness to the full materiality of the Expansion, so that we see differentiation on both sides of the agenda, it appears obvious that a unity has been uncovered. Not a bland and grand One-ness to be sure, not with differentiations everywhere and differentiating all about.
What appears to be a variety of different sciences is in fact distinguished primarily by territorial claims on B-universe segments. What appears to be a spectrum of “hard” vs. “soft” sciences is an artifact of how little the Expansion’s differentiation has been respected as the shared quality of both the observer and the observed.
Observers using B-ness technology, with its concepts, variables and correlations, to research behaviors, have been more successful in providing competitive advantage to entrepreneurs (“significant differences”) or to us in beating chance than in contributing to the solution of the behavioral problem, Pbeh, or even of critical situational problems, Psits, such as pandemic preparedness, global warming and increased harder collisions (“violence”).
There is applied research and there is basic research. But what of applicable research? To actually address the challenge of meeting needed functionality with functionality. To reduce our dependence on outcome-based control systems by composing a mettle-rich operating system.
Without the “big picture” of the Expansion and the Nature of Things, it is too easy to settle for and stop at the one-dimensional “expanding universe.” This even though the facts of behavioral expansion– i.e., extended differentiations -- stare us in the face. Enough so as to consider “dark matter” and “dark energy” concepts re the “universe” as taking the materiality of the Expansion too lightly?
