How many holes does a ring have?: The Theory of Spiritual Physics

By Gnomo Orzo

What if the universe weighed nothing and matter did not really exist? That which seems to be a legitimate doubt for a mystic scholar of the Indian Vedas is, instead, an embarrassing result of applying restricted Relativity to observations obtained from the group of astrophysics who have measured the background cosmic radiation of our universe. At the dawn of the new millennium, the WMAP satellite, in addition to providing us with measurements of the cosmos that have never been obtained before, also created many concerns about the conception of the universe, which we still obstinately believe today. Through the story of one hundred years of provocative discoveries in Physics, this book leads us to a new, astonishing vision of the cosmos. Curiously identical to that of a mystic.

The Theory of Spiritual Physics

Preface

SEEING FAR

If I have seen further it is only by standing on the shoulders of giants.

Sir Isaac Newton

Imagine for a moment that you are living on a planet where you do not need to defend yourself from anything. A place where no one obliges you to be or to do what you do not want.

Imagine knowing your deepest desires and having your days, your nocturnal dreams, and your resources available to realize them. Imagine looking around you and knowing that the answers to everything you ask really do exist and you do not have to go anywhere to look for them because they are inside of you.

Imagine actually being a small piece of a larger mosaic, where the dreams and desires of all beings are perfectly and elegantly harmonized, and that the glue that holds together the pieces of the mosaic is not made of fear and war, but of love and intelligence.

Imagine that this is not a fantasy but a reality, one that has been so well hidden that it is almost transparent to your eyes. Almost. If you are imagining these things, it is because deep down you know they are possible. The pages of this book are the result of this effort, of this certainty: all this is possible.

It is curious to cite aspects such as happiness, freedom, our inner world, dreams, intelligence, and – last but not least – love, in the preface of a book about Physics. Yet, by covering the concepts, people and events of Physics, and not only, this book seeks to demonstrate that without newly reuniting the many diverse expressions of human beings, it will not be possible to find that unitary law that we are seeking.

It will not be possible to make a new leap and revolu-tionize our technologies to the point of increasing the quality of life without destroying everything that sur-rounds us, without polluting and threatening ecosystems, without destroying races and species.

This work of summary would have never come about if I had not climbed on the shoulders of someone of a much greater stature, someone who made it possible for me to see further: Oberto Airaudi, Falco Tarassaco.

My master, my teacher, my inspiration for this work and for so many things in my life that I can now be proud of.

Thank you, Falco Tarassaco.

Premise

In the first part of this book, I will make some brief allusions to the history of Physics, mainly from the end of the 19th century to present times, except for Aristotle, Galilei and Newton, who for obvious reasons have space within my historical excursus.

Knowing modern Physics is certainly not essential for understanding Spiritual Physics, but it helps us to demonstrate that spirit, matter and energy are the same thing.

Spiritual is sometimes a misleading word, especially since monotheistic systems want us to believe that it is their exclusive playground. The Physics of Everything? Holistic Physics? I was thinking of different terms to describe Spiritual Physics in these pages, but ultimately the most important thing is understanding the content. Let us let those who really need them take care of the labels.

So, I will start from the cornerstones of scientific thought, such as Relativity, the Big Bang, and Quantum Mechanics. When possible, I will not only tell about the theories but also the vicissitudes of the scientists who have formulated them – which are perhaps more exciting than the principles themselves – while I will leave aside formulas and complicated calculations I do not know, leaving them to the specialists.

This work, compared to others that cover the same theme and can be found in our catalog of books, is expressly focused on the connection between modern Physics and Spiritual Physics, and has an educational nature.

Unfortunately, it will not be possible to explore the whole range of arguments in Spiritual Physics here, as its vastness and multiple facets made it necessary for me – and those who helped me with this work – to make choices and give more space to aspects that are essential for understanding the fundamentals of the Damanhurian vision of Physics.

Precisely because the theme is vast, and during courses and seminars it has never been possible to cover every question, I hope that friends and students with whom I have discussed these topics over the last 20 years can integrate their knowledge and further enrich it.

However, you may find an exhaustive summary in the book Spiritual Physics written by my colleague and friend Coyote Cardo, a walking esoteric library who, when he has had enough of the laws of the universe, amuses himself with an electric guitar and a distortion pedal, making his cat’s fur stand up on end. I cannot lend it to you – the book that is, not the cat – because I have consumed it by consulting it so much while writing my book.

In the second part of the book, we will discuss topics that are not directly related to Physics, such as History, Cognitive Science, Philosophy of Language, and Philosophy.

These aspects and events make it possible for us to better understand the context of one of the main themes of this work: demonstrating that a unitary knowledge exists, and that the various sciences are only limited points of view of this knowledge.

The rest of the work is entirely dedicated to Spiritual Physics, as it was formulated since the founding of Damanhur in 1975 to the present, by Falco, through confrontation and debate with his students and collaborators during almost 12,000 hours of meetings, carefully recorded on audio cassettes until 1984, and from then on, with video.

Although 12,000 hours is a considerable amount of time, for me it is quite enjoyable to remember all those moments, with so many questions, his and ours, so many answers, and so many inquiries that have gradually created the model that we will cover on these pages and that has radically changed my life and way of seeing the world.

I imagine that many of you who are reading this book may be wondering why some of us have names like Falco Tarassaco (Falcon Dandelion) or Coyote Cardo (Coyote Thistle). Or why I and others have spent 12,000 hours asking questions and seeking answers about Physics, spirituality, life, and most of all, what is this Damanhur that was founded in 1975, since there is another Damanhur in Egypt that is much more ancient? Have no fear! At the end of the book, you will find a chapter dedicated to Damanhur, Federation of Communities.

I conclude by sharing a hope of mine. I do not know if you have anything to change, and in any case, I do not think that I can teach you how to change, but I would like these pages to help you, if it were not already the case. Using a quote from Albert Einstein about walking through the trees and becoming aware of the forest, I think that Spiritual Physics, as it was developed by Falco, helps us to see and admire the entire forest.

So let us begin precisely with one of his questions.

Introduction on thursday, obviously

What’s the story with this ring?

Falco Tarassaco

Like all stories, this one has a starting date and place, and it was July 7, 1988 in a sweltering Turin, already in the process of preparing for the summer holidays. We were almost at the end of an era where, starting from July, the city of the Savoys emptied out and the Autostrada del Sole fills with Fiat Ritmos and Fiat 127s, packed with suitcases and headed for the sea.

The words economic crisis were still to come. Archbishop Lefebvre had taken it upon himself to create a schismatic current in the Catholic Church, while Jacques Benveniste published an article in Nature magazine about researching the memory of water that would cause him a lot of trouble and very little fame.

That evening, for the second time, I was attending a talk by Mr. Oberto Airaudi, a prolific – perhaps I should say volcanic – philosopher, healer, painter, as well as the founder of the Damanhur, Federation of Communities. Three months before, I had begun a path of Meditation in his philosophical school, and I was there to understand something more about this man and his ideas.

I discovered that the previous Thursday evening, during one of the meetings he was holding at Via San Secondo street, number 42, he had asked his audience a question that seemed decidedly strange to me: How many holes does a ring have?

PART ONE - A BIT OF HISTORY

When invitations were sent out for the grand scientists’ ball

Kelvin said he was at

the right temperature to be able to attend;

Einstein thought it would be relatively easy to come;

Pierre and Marie Curie radiated enthusiasm;

Ampère was not in the current;

Ohm had resistance to the idea;

Boyle said he was under too much pressure;

Fermi said it was a news bomb;

Coulomb’s wife felt charged;

Hertz felt on the crest of the wave;

Joule had to renounce the invitation

due to work problems;

Nobel exploded with joy at the news;

Fourier already had a number of commitments;

Dr. Jekyll declined, saying that

he didn’t feel like himself lately;

... and Avogadro was not invited

as no one remembered his number.

Yes, I know, Dr. Jekyll was not a scientist, but with this logic, Hubble was not an astronomer, Einstein did not entirely believe in his theory of General Relativity, and Newton was disturbed by the implications of his Universal Gravitation.

If we now have the possibility to go as far as Spiritual Physics – that is, to the All – it is because we understand the huge leaps in logic of many thinkers and scientists, and we also know how to observe their mistakes, their fears and the hesitations they had. As noted by Carlo Rovelli¹, genius hesitates, and these hesitations can show us some cracks through which the light filters in, giving us clues and suggestions to enter into a new Physics that could revolutionize the world.

Perhaps Aristotle was the only one who really had it all together. It is not by chance that we owe the Unmoved Mover or
