Early Man:
**The Roots of Civilisation' reveals an earnestly tested and
exciting hypothesis of the significance of the ishango Bone
on the part of Alexander Marshak. This book regenerates my
own speculative drives that there seems to be increasing
evidence in support of the assumption that man's intellectual
capacity has been altered but little, if any, over vast years
of his presence on this planet.
"Certainly it is true that the earliest philosophical statements
on record disclose a comprehensivity and profundity, and above
all a simplicity, accompanied by great wisdom. The fact that
the information sources available when they were written were
almost negligible in contradistinction to the information sources
of our own day, suggests that the intellect of man may readily
have been at today's highest levels back in unknowable times.
Fr. Marshak's work contributes immeasurably to knowledge in this
important field."

monkey. if that is so then we are liable to find better ana
better men. it is very interesting that in the time since i
started my work a third of a century ago that we only knew of
the existence of man a relatively short time ago and the findings
of earlier man have extended that time. it has been multiplied
from a quarter of a million to a possibility of 10 million, so
it has been a very large extension. But one of the things we
continually discover as we find earlier man, is that the earlier
man does not tend to be an inferior type man. There is some
indication in talking about the capacity, the space for brain,
of a larger pattern activity. I would not be surprised if we
found mucn more about men during the time when you are alive,
and if we do, i think you are going to find earlier man tending

"As we study industrialization we see that we cannot have
mass production unless we have mass consumption. This was
effected
evolutionarily by the great social struggles of
labor
to increase wages and spread the benefits and prevent
the reduction of the numbers of workers employed. The labor
movement made possible mass purchasing; ergo, mass production;
ergo, low prices on vastly improved products and services
which have altogether established entirely new and higher
standards of humanity's living.
"Our labor world and all salaried workers, including school
teachers and college professors, are now, at least subcon-
sciously if not consciously, afraid that automation will take
away their jobs. They are afraid they won't be able to do
what is called 'earning a living,' which is short for earning
the right to live. This term implies that normally we are
supposed to die prematurely and that it is abnormal to be
able to earn a living. It is paradoxical that only the
abnormal or exceptional are entitled to prosper. Yesterday
the term
even implied that success was so very abnormal that

bring one's self to apprehend and then comprehend variously
pertinent data, phenomena and derived principles.
The
intimate manuscript records of many great self-educated
individuals show that they discern intuitively when and
what it is that they want to learn. Thereafter they arrange
to do so by four main strategies. The first is by self-
conducted experiments, if they are scientists. The second
is by going to those live humans who have educated them-
selves from direct experiences. The third is to contact
through books those who have discovered and learned by
direct experience but are now dead. Fourthly, they some-
times have recourse to the esoteric and often exquisitely
valuable information contained within the word of mouth

completing high school was a very, very low

You must remember that Einstein was a schoolteacher in

You also know that Switzerland is very famous for watches
and clocks, so as a patent examinerin the patent office he
would be in many, many patent confrontations with watches and
clocks and dealing with time. I am sure that Einstein began
to think a great deal about time as just an occupational
result. At any rate, you have people trying to make watches
that are better then other watches, stop watches and so forth.
So one of the things he saw clearly was that none of the
watches really agreed. And so in an important race you
have two or three timers and you would take the average of
their results. In other words, he said there was no exact
time. He had chronometers being invented so that the
navigators would have better and better results, but he
found the navigators had to have three or four chronometers
on board and they took the rates of change of their error
and they averaged their error to give themselves something
that was reliable time. Time was all unreliable. He saw
that Newton had said time was a very specific affair, that

"All chemico-physico-biological components and their behavior
necessities seem originally invested. Any and all of the
radiant, thermal, compressive-expansive, convegrent-divergent,
rotational, orbital, precessional, valencial, polar,
refractive, gravitational, vectorial, and reciprocal
motivating factors, et. al., may be uniquely identified,
quantitated, separated, subdivided, multiplied, or compounded
empirically, in infinitely extensible directions-- and seemingly
without loss of simple commensurability at any and all
stages.
"This apparent claim to sublime commensurability and compre-
hensiveness continually challenges for a downward scaling
by detection and exclusion of awkward factors. Despite
earnest attempts to discover such shortcomings
the opposite result occurs on each occasion.
The principles of further discovery were in fact developed
through determination of a technique for detection of fault.

Einstein: Cosmic Religious Sense:
"Margaret Mead said recently that god is rarely mentioned at
seientific or social conferences. This is not so much a
phenomenon of conferences as it is characteristic of our times.
Many think of science and the age of industrialisation as
atheistic. Scientists frequently have been asked by less
educated men whether anything they observe through their
microscopes or telescopes confirms religious dogma and the
scriptures-- and, if not, must they not forsake scriptuse and
religion as having no fundamental significance whatsoever?
Surprised by the question and unconvinced that they are
atheists, the scientific specialists, also avoiding philosophic
speculation as treacherous around for reasoning, have been
notably ineffective in refuting their atheistic status.
"Cosmology and philosophy have been differentially dissipated
in the era of increased specialization. Total thinking is now
almost completely legendary or speculative. For instance, it

according to the legend, probability and science together have
now provided us with an extraordinarily well-organized chemical,

regularities.
"The scientific record refutes this a priori chaos scheme.
Every great scientist who has documented the events surrounding
his major discovery has documented the fact that, in comparison
to his crude hypothesising, his discovery has disclosed a
sublime regularity of nature. The regularities of nature are
governed by pure mathematical principles. Thus, since
principles are inherently weightless and infinite-- that is,
endless- the Universe could never have been chaotic and thus
has no beginning.

"Scientists, having developed double names for their overlapping
work (biochemistry, biophysics, etc.), are now finding their
total field interconnected and unitary. This is a general
trend of science. And so many scientists are now being educated
that it may be forecasted that within the next half-century
not only science but much of educated society will have come
naturally through its own explorations and experiences to
discover the comprehensive order of the Universe. Thus they
will inadvertently develop aregeneratively inspiring faith in
the order and integrity of the Universe.
"And because the complexities of this Universe are only
intellectually comprehensible, recognition of an intellect greater

emergent in the integrating totality of scientific exploration.
This means the personal, fist-hand discovery by increasing

of separating out our experience. Instead of looking at our
total experience, man began looking at just what his eye
would do and discovered the energy properties called optics.
Newton began to pay attention to gravity alone. There was
no word gravity up to this point but he began to pay attention
to what makes things go into the center of the Earth first and
then he comes to the concept of gravity. He isolates the
phenomena out so all the classifications wehave of the
scientific words are all energetic words. They are words
differentiating out the total behavior of nature."

Energy:
"Scientists experimenting with entropy discovered
that while energy left one local system after another,
it always did so only by joining other local systems.
The scientists found that energy was always 100 percent
accountable. Therfore, they had to elucidate a new and
fundamental scientific law which they called the 'law of
conservation of energy' which stated that energy could
be neither created nor lost.
"Therefore we emerged scientifically in the early
days of the 20th century into an entirely new cosmological
concept of an inexhaustible, ergo finite (physical)

as matter, and energy disassociative as radiation, and

"We have an explanation of structural engineering in force

reaction sothere really are always sort of two lines. If
I get a result like this I get a reaction in the opposite
direction. I began to discover that this was an oversimpli-

jumps. In the first place I want you to remember thathe
jumps. He doesn't glide horizontally, he jumps. That is,
he goes outwardly from the center of the Earth and that is
a vector. That is an energy action in itself. He jumps.
He is the action. The action was not just horizontal but
also vertical. It was mildly vertical in that he went
outwardly. He represents already this kind of a motion and
this kind of a motion. As he jumps this boat goes into
reaction and shoots off that way and then a moment later
he lands and the boat goes this way so he is the action
and he is complex in that he is both horizontal and vertical
and he jumped. There is a reaction and a result so there
really is a four-foldedness going on. Sometimes it looks
quite three-folded because he doesn't jump very high. It
is all right for us to think of a tetrahedron very low in

"Whether expressed in foot-pounds per minute or kilowatt-
hours, the total physical work done by all the muscles of all
humans in all the two and one-half million years of known
presence of humans aboard our Planet Earth, amounts to less
than the energy released in one second of time by one hurricane;
one hurricane's released energy equals the total energy of the
combined atomic bombs thus far produced and stockpiled by the
Russians and the U.S.A. In contradistinction to this minuscule
energy involvement of all history's human muscle, the invisible,
weightless, but cosmically magnificent minds of humans have
thus far discovered, quantized, and catalogued the relative
abundance of each and all of the 92 regenerative cèmical
elements occurring on all the visible stars of known Universe.
Thus emerges human awareness of the physical-energy-mastering
potential of the metaphysical mind's extraordinary information-
sorting and analyzing capability."

Energy Involvement of 92 Chemical Elements:
The physical Universe is an aggregate of frequencies.
Each chemical element is uniquely identifiable in the
electromagnetic spectrum by its frequencies. None of them
resemble each other and their interactions bring about
other unique cycles of frequencies which act like great
musical chords. We have a great orchestration which grows
from the micro which are absolutelynandetectable by human,
senses, to the very complex which are in terms of the whole
galaxies. In fact the human senses are only able to tune in
about a millionth of the total known realm of identities of
phenomena. Thus comes the awareness of the physical giving
the metaphysical employment-- to apply its extraordinary
sorting capability.'

connecting with the connecting rod and the crankshaft center--

In the turbine you have the explosion on the

without any connecting rod at all, you get 60 percent

Consumption of mineral and water energy in 1950 is estimated
at 80-1/6 quintillion foot-pounds. Han's efficiency converts
only a rough four percent of these into work, or about 3-1/5
quintillion foot-pounds. Dividing this by 250 work days'

"It seemed evident to me in 1927 that if these local metaphysical
and physical event patterns could be realistically conceived that
they then could be brought under control by design science to an
ever increasingly satisfactory extent. This would permit the
new life growing and developing within a favorably organized
environment to do so without having its faculties damaged, its
drives frustrated, its information stone system overloaded
with false information, and its reflexes and subconscious coordi-
nation illogically coupled.
"In 1927 I said to myself: 'What do we know about the metaphysi-
cal and physical events that impinge on man?' I saw first that
all the things that could happen to humanity came either from
outside or from inside themselves and that I must catalogue them
all in two main groups-- those of inside origin and those of
outside origin. i.e., of microcosmic and macrocosmic origins."

qualification because physicists have found that nature always
behaves most economically.

degrees of fundamental transformation freedoms, which provide
twelve alternate ways in which nature can behave most economically

Equilibrium:
"The Universe just refuses to get caught at equilibrium.
I became suspicious back in 1927 that nature didn't become
infinitely disorderly. We caught her in sort of a symmetric
phase where you called it a molecule, and another symmetric
we may call a cell. Thus we get what we call atom. And then
we get the complexes like human beings, and they are sort of
levels of symmetry. But these levels of symmetry would
never
occur in equilibrium; they are always on one side or
the other: the crystal is positive or negative. So she had
what I call asymmetry, and she had what I saw was minimum
asymmetry and maximum asymmetry-- which we call disorderly
just because it was more confusing to look at. But she did
everything relative to equilibrium. She would go from the
negative through the equilibrium to the positive. But she
refused to get caught at it. So the concave-- pull the
rubber glove off your left hand and now it fits your right
hand and the concave becomes the convex. You could have
the proton and neutron, and they were always known to coexist.

The comprehensive system would have also to involve all
the topological pattern components and as a quasi-

the same length; therefore, all the angulation would have
to be in increments of approximately sixty degrees."

9. What conclusive evidence is there of mind as God?
(1)
A. "I do not know of any single conclusive evidence of God,
but there is ample disclosure of the unique capabilities of
mind. Brains deal always and only with apprehending, recording,
storing, retrieving for reconsideration and re-storing again
for further recall, each special-case experience. Mind and mind
alone has the capability of discovering relationships existing
between uniquely identifiable entities, which interrelationships
are not indicated or predicted by any of the constant character-
istics of the entities taken separately. As for instance, the
interattraction of masses; as for instance the interattraction
of the Earth and the Moon. The relative interattraction force
of these is enormous; too, in contradistinction to the inter-
attraction force between a golf ball and a pea. The relative
force is determined by intermultiplying the relative mass
values of these four bodies or entities, respectively, having
arrived at the total relative mass values of the four.
The
relative force value of any two may be obtained by, let us
say, multiplying the Earth mass times Moon mass, which is
obviously very great in respect to golf ball M times pea H."

RBF DEFINITIONS

"These relative initial force values are seen by experiment to
be predictable by the inherent values of the separate entities.
However, what is not predictable form their inherent character-
istics per se, is that when we halve the distance intervening
between any two, e.g. Earth and Moon, then their mutual inter-
attractiveness increases at a rate of the second power of the
inverse to the ratio of the relative interdistance change;
1.e., halving the distance of the two mass-identified objects
increases the interattraction fourfold.
"Mind, having learned intuitively and observingly from the
experience of successively repeated measuring, finds this
accelerating interattraction always occurs under such circum-
stances. Mind informs brain that this result has been
obtained, whereafter discovery of that mathematical formula
becomes one of brain's special-case experiences that it had
learned from mind, just as it learned from nose that such and
such an experience is occurring and brain thereafter remembers
that that experience occurred. Synergy means 'the integrated
interbehaviors of all systems unpredicted by behaviors or

that doesn't change the principle. As observation becomes

asymmetry pulsates. There are several kinds of positive and
negative. The eternal temple of positive and negative, the
North and South Poles; concave and convex; inside and
outside. There is a fourfold twoness: one the exterior
cosmic tetrahedron and the interior cosmic tetrahedron; the
other is the circumference around the pole. The additive

It was

bound by lines. He found that their is a constant relative
abundance of these three fundamentally unique and no

"He was finally able to say that on a plane pattern the number
of the vertexes plus the number of the areas will always equal
the number of the edges plus the number one. Looking at a
polyhedron and thinking about it as a flat picture, we can
count these up. The number of vertexes is 18, and the number
of faces is 19, so 18+ 19 = 37, but the number of edges is
36 and the plus one makes 37. Euler found that he could do
this for structures which were not in the plane. And then the
accounting becomes the edges plus two instead of the edges plus
one.
"If the pattern has a hole through it, like a doughnut, then we
don't have plus anything. We leave out the two from the solid.
When we leave out the two from the solid it is really a doughnut,
and we are cutting out the axis which is to say that the axis
is two.
"In other words when I say frequency to the second power times
ten plus two, I assign two in every layer for the axis. We
must pay attention to the fact that the 'plus Two' that Euler
found has to be added to the vertexes plus faces equals edges

"I think this town meeting of the air, the audiences here,
those of us at the table, really are all of one mind. Humanity
is deeply concerned about humanity. But I'll just point out
as an engineer and as one who has operated in the research
and advance activities for many, many years that the total
community does not invent the telephone, nor the airplane; this
is the work of the individual. The individual who finds
technically better ways for society finds that what he has is
usually not employed until society gets in a very great
emergency.

"I've just been at a meeting in Albuquerque. I was asked by
M.I.T. if I would come to
an intercollegiate meeting
of solutions of energy-harvesting problems. Engineering
students from 30 universities were granted $5,000 each to
grant their producing technically-equivalent, new windmills,
new methane gas, Sun-energy converters, and so forth. Scien-
tists and engineers went over the work of each of the
different student groups. They had to have the apparatus run
for 24 hours to prove that it really works. They were all
rated for BTUs and KH taht they could turn out. And what
was really important was that I could see the whole academic
world, the engineering world returning to doing what just the
individuals had been doing, the individual windmills, and so
forth."

himself is continually evolving. Dr. Waddington, the

points this out when he speaks of what he calls the 'epi-
genetic landscape.' in which we have all of the biologicals
continually altering the environment and the altered
environment continually realtering the biologicals. There
is manifest a chain reaction of extraordinary pattern
interactions whose consequently progressive intertransforming
we recognize as evolution. _volution is both you and I and
the comprehensively dynamic macro-micro environment--
that is, universe. Due to entropy, the physical evolution
of universe is irreversible. There are cyclic patterns
which are repeated but not reversed. Only the metaphysical

This loss of energy is called
entropy. Because all the
local systems of Universe are in constant motion and transforma-
tion, the energies are given off nonsimultaneously in
multidirections and with increasing diffusion. The scientists
call this the law of the increase of the random element.
increasing random element brings about physical Universe
enlargement. These nonsimultaneous enlargements bring about
expanding physical Universe. The expansion is verified by the
astronomer's discovery of the red shifts in remote galaxies."

"Within economics we may be able to demonstrate the existence
of a metabolic process generalization which is akin to, if
not indeed implicitly inherent in, a composite of Boltzmann's
Einstein's, and others' concept of a cosmically regenerative
omniintercomplementation of a diversity of energetic export-
import centers that nonsimultaneously ebb and flow to
accommodate entropically and syntropically, omnidiversally,
omniregenerative intertransformings. How can economics
demonstrate a generalization from the utterly uninhibited
viewpoint of the individual human?"

Externalization of Man's Own Functions:
"Such is the acceleration of the great new industrially
implemented life pattern. Its ecological-pattern-
transforming networks of tools have been invented by men
only as a result of progressively externalizing and
amplifying their integral bodily functions and innate
faculties. Granted the intellectual discovery of physical
principles and inventive initiative of man it is
nonetheless clear that the network of industrialization has
been realized only through the a priori existence of the

Extinction:
"Extinction has always occurred when the overspecialized
species was confronted with a major surprise, evolutionary
event with which its specialisation (won at great cost of
general adaptability) could not cope.
"Humanity has been only inadvertently saved from extinction.
The surprise factor which is inadvertently saving humanity
from extinction is also fall-out from the weapons-support
system. The new fall-out technology which displaced man
as a specialist (professional scientist or craftsman) is
the new computer-monitored automation industry."

"The adequacy of the only instinctive brute force and

survival is now extinct. To save themselves in World War I
the last of the power types allowed their 'pure' scientists
to wander beyond the surveillance limits of those physical
masters' exclusively seeable, smellable, hearable, touchable
reality. Thus the scientist came to enter the invisible
regions of Universe-- the millionfold greater reality of the
nonsensorially detectable electromagnetic spectrum. Thus
humanity went from wired messages to 'wireless,' from
monopolizable 'tracks' to trackless airways, from visible
muscle structure to invisible alloy strength. The
old
masters, unable to see what was going on, lost their
mastery by default. They did not know what was going on.
Thus did the historical mastery of their fellow humans by
the exclusively physical world rulers become extinct.

Universe needs him she isn't depending on this little team
on this planet. There are probably quadrillion times a
quadrillion planets with humans on board them. And this little
team may not make good just in the way that some of the seeds
coming off the trees don't make good. So we're in a touch-
and-go position right now: whether we make sense in Universe
or not. The poker game is over. We've been given a lot of
time to learn what our function is and now we can really begin
to see it. We can see it consciously; we've been getting along
subconsciously up to now. We were born helpless; so it's all
right to start helpless. But we were born with equipment to
find out and discover the information; and we better start
using it or we don't stay here. If we make good here, we're
going to suddenly discover that we are aboard a mother ship
and there are other things to do elsewhere in Universe."

"The parabolic reflector beamed, ultra-ultra high frequency
electromagnetic waves-- such as can be coped with by
transceivers with the infra-diameter of the human eye--
are such that they would be completely interfered with by
walls or other to-us-seemingly opaque objects.
However,
when they are beamed outwardly to the sky in a cloudless
atmosphere, no interference occurs. Ultra short wave radio
and radar beams which are interfered with by mountains and
trees can be beamed into a clear sky and bounced off the
moon, to be received back on Earth in approximately one and
three-fourth seconds. In a like manner it is possible that
human eyes, operating as transceivers, all unbeknownst to us,
may be beaming our thoughts out into the great night-sky
void, not even having the sun's radiation to interfere mildly
with them. Such eye-beamed thoughts sent off through the
intercelestial voids might bounce off various objects at
varying time periods, being reflectively re-angled to a new
direction in Universe without important energy loss. A
sufficient number of bouncings-off of a sufficient number
of asteroids and cosmic dust could convert the beams into
wide-angle
which diffuse their energy signals in so

objects so remote as to delay their 700 million miles
per hour travel back to Earth for a thousand years, ten
thousand years, a hundred thousand years. It is quite
possiblethat thoughts may be eye-beamed outwardly not
only from Earth to
back to Earth at some later
period from some celestially-mirroring object, but also that
thoughts might be beamed-- through noninterfering space
to be accidentally received from Earth-- from other planets
elsewhere in Universe. There is nothing in the data to
suggest that the phenomenon we speak of as intuitive thought
may not be just such remote cosmic transmissions.
Intuitions come to us often with surprising lucidity and
abruptness. Such intuitions often spotlight sigificant
coincidences in a myriad of special case experiences which
lead to discovery of generalized scientific principles
heretofore eluding humanity's thought. These intuitions
could be messages to the darthian brain receiving it to
'Look into so-and-so and so-and-so and you will find something
significant.' Intuitions could be thoughts dispatched from
unbeleivably long ago and from unbeleivably far away. "
