Physics Talk

I am not educated in any type of science at all. The quoted text
below was delivered as a lecture (then transcribed by an attendee, I
believe) by a metaphysicist who was trained as a physicist at Rutgers
during the 1940's. I'm not sure what year the lecture was delivered,
but this transcription was written in 1972, and it was addressed to
the lay person interested in metaphysics. I've noted blatant
grammatical errors only, and assume the rest (mainly, the lack of
using commas to separate phrases where necessary) are the result of
the transcription process. MY QUESTION: What does his first short
paragraph that is quoted directly below MEAN? (I later quote the full
transcript, in order to include the full context in which the
paragraph I am interested in is contained.)

"The atom of our physical universe is the photon particle. It's the
smallest particle we are capable of measuring. As the light particle,
it hits our retina and registers as light. That same particle is
basically the force of gravity and magnetism, and the energy level of
the atom. But this is way-out physics and physicists will say that it
is ridiculous."

Why, in 1972 (or ever), would he think "this is way-out physics and
physicists will say that it is ridiculous"? If you have any interest
or thoughts that you can relay in lay man's terms, I would consider it
very helpful.

The full transcription of the entire lecture, in which the above quote
is contained, follows:

"The word "atom", by definition means the smallest indivisible
particle. Up until 1952, having been trained in physics, I carefully
followed the latest findings of the atom and atomic theory. The atom,
which originally was supposed to have been the basic building block of
the universe, already had more than thirty particles in it. I saw
that it could no more be accepted as the indivisible building block.

I saw that our total knowledge of all natural phenomena added up to
zero. We didn't know what gravity, magnetism, electricity, light or
heat were.

Science progresses by trial and error, because science today doesn't
understand natural phenomena. The reason for it is man's low
understanding of the science of being. The world is on a destructive
course because of that lack of understanding.

Today, we get our energy by destroying matter. If you keep destroying
matter, by natural principle, it's going to destroy you. And that's
what's happening in the world today. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a
tooth - the law of compensation.

We've poisoned the atmosphere with our destruction of the fossil
fuels, coal and oil. Now it's poisoning us.

We're poisoning the water. And we're poisoning the food. We can't go
on doing this and survive.

We must go with nature rather than destroy it. We must learn that if
we do not and continue our present direction, it will destroy us.
This is already becoming obvious.

We can and we must. And the way is by the study of man and his
beingness. (sic)The science that would correct all other sciences as
it is basic to all their sciences.

Sooner or later we must understand the science of nature, understand
the atom and then we'll use the atom in which is unlimited free
energy.

If we would let go of our destructiveness and hate, the mind would be
cleared so that we could see the simplicity of nature and natural
law. It is not complicated as our physicists try to make it.

Natural, infinite power is right there in front of our eyes and we
can't see it. Nature is here to serve us. We're not here to fight
it, smash it, or crash it. But everything we do, we do the hard way.
Our basic research instrument, the cyclotron, smashes atoms.

That's because the major science, that is the basic science of all
sciences, the science of being, man has little or no interest in. The
science of being would explain and make all the other sciences known.

If we were in tune with nature, in tune with ourselves, loving rather
than hating, nature would be allowed to fulfill and serve us with a
bounty that would make everyone not only affluent, but extremely
happy.

We have theories that we keep changing. Every physicist is aware of
this. If they were correct they would need no change. The atom was
supposed to be the basic building block that everything else is built
out of. We know now that that theory is wrong. And yet, we hold on
to it.

Gravity and magnetism we don't understand. We don't even know what
electricity is, but we can use it. Through trial and error we've
learned how. By crossing a magnetic field with a copper conductor, we
get a current.

We've learned to produce electricity that way. Why it happens, we
still don't know.

We don't understand gravity - nothing about it, and that's why we are
earthbound. When we discover what it is, we will freely and easily
travel the universe.

Everything in nature goes two ways. If there's a plus, there's a
minus; if there's a hot, there's a cold; and if there's gravity,
there's anti-gravity. Only when we understand gravity will we have
the key to anti-gravity. Only then, (sic) we can leave this planet
and travel the universe. We will travel on the magnetic lines of the
universe.

While man is of the destructive mind that he is now, nature keeps him
bound to this planet. Otherwise he would go to other planets to
conquer them. He would cause havoc and destroy the harmony of the
universe.

So nature confines him here. When we get more understanding, more
loving, and therefore our minds quieter, we'll begin to see the
natural law. Then we'll see what gravity is, and how to leave this
planet with ease.

We'll see how to get unlimited free energy from the atom in a non-
destructive way.

We do know that the energy is there. We use it in our atomic bombs.

As I've said before, our research into the atom is by smashing it's
(sic) cyclotrons. We learn by destruction, a very unfortunate
approach.

We must reverse and learn by constructing. Then we'd get the correct
answers. We should look at the universe out there, and learn how it
is constructing itself and, in the process, the atom. In knowing how
the atom is constructed is the secret to its unlimited power.

The atom of our physical universe is the photon particle. It's the
smallest particle we are capable of measuring. As the light particle,
it hits our retina and registers as light. That same particle is
basically the force of gravity and magnetism, and the energy level of
the atom. But this is way-out physics and physicists will say that it
is ridiculous."

My question, again, is what's so way out about what he's saying, and
why would physicists say that it is ridiculous?

Thanks.
