APPENDIX W:
Physics, Metaphysics & Poetry
a) PHYSICS will not solve PHYSICS without
METAPHYSICS….and
b) METAPHYSICS will not
solve METAPHYSICS
solve METAPHYSICS
without POETRY….
now, re: (a)
Why is that?
PHYSICS operates with a quasi-dead-spot on its
cumulative brain that PHYSICS is a stand-alone
eld….
eld….
albeit directly interacting with the hard sciences.
This is wrong.
All elds are interconnected
– meaning the hard and soft
– meaning the hard and soft
sciences – and it will frankly require integrating multiple
elds to penetrate truly deeply into the
cosmic code.

The concepts necessary to get us to the core of
cosmic

code are too abstract for METAPHYSICS alone (whether
from 5,000 years ago or contemporary). [Among

thinkers, the legendary theologian Rav Kook (b.

Chief Rabbi of Palestine from 1921-1935, understood

followed-through on this.]
POETRY, while still
hampered by the limitations of the

human word and human consciousness, nevertheless
affords us the opportunity
of potentially thrusting closer to

the core of cosmic mystery…
Of course, once one enters the world of POETRY, one
enters another netherworld….
Sort of, damned if you do; damned if you don’t
But, nevertheless, poetry ultimately has a place
in the arsenal of the metaphysician….
