What is ietheory?
Overall it can be simply put as:
Energy = Information = time and space = Mass
The “=“ means “is”. Energy, information, time and space, mass, underlying they are all the same thing. They can be seen as just different names, or, different measurement units.
Thanks to Einstein’s famous mass-energy equivalence, It is easy to understand the part “energy = mass”.
For people who know quantum physics, it is not so hard to understand the part “Information = time and space”.
The “energy = information” part is the one we would like to introduce.
Imagine a computer-based virtual world, it’s easy to comprehend that everything is information and it can be measured using the unit “bit”.
We rarely see “information” as a measurement unit in reality. But there is an information theory proposed by Claude E. Shannon that studies the quantification, storage, and communication of information.
If we do consider information as a measurement unit for energy, we already have the equation for some forms of information and energy conversion.
Energy has many forms, such as magnetic, kinetic (movement energy), heat (thermal energy), light, gravitational potential, chemical, sound, electrical, elastic potential, and nuclear.
Take light and sound here, they are different forms for energy, and they also can be considered as information.
Planck had an equation for photon energy (the energy carried by a single photon), E=hf, using frequency/wavelength and the speed of light.
If we see the frequency/wavelength as information, and speed of light as time and space. This Planck’s formula becomes an equation for energy, information and time/space conversion.
Information has many forms too, for example, figure (pictures, symbols), words (language), odor, etc.
The religious rituals, they all make sense now, aren’t they? The chanting, symbols, incense offering, prayer, and mind practicing, they are practically the application of information-energy conversion. With right formulas, they are measurable and quantifiable.
The law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created or destroyed. We think it also applies to energy-information. The hypothesis is: a being, say, a human being, carries a certain amount of energy-information mixture, and this certain amount won’t change over time. The only thing changes is the portion/ratio of energy and information in the mixture. And the ratio change (of energy and information) is, in fact, the process of aging. That being said, during birth, aging and death, the amount of energy-information mix won’t change, but the ratio changes. Before birth and after death, it becomes pure information. There, samsara explained. With a right energy-information formula, samsara could be calculated.
Life is a mixture of energy, information, time/space, and mass. Underlying, they are all vibrations.
