I was reading an article on sub-atomic particles, which I don't want to go into here. Just to make a list of them and their breakdown. Of course we start with the atom, which is made up of protons, electrons, neutrons and a lot of empty space.... or maybe this is the first sign of dark matter. After all dark matter is the stuff that fills the universe that you can't detect. Then it appears that protons, neutrons, etc are made up of quarks which like ice-cream come in six flavours. There are three types of fundamental particles which haven't as yet been split into something else. These are the quarks, leptons, and bosons. Everything else seems to be made from these fundamentals.
The biggest snag seems to be that nobody has ever isolated any of these fundamentals; the evidence for them is traces they leave behind. The biggest evidence for existence is the possibility of dark matter and dark energy. When we look at this from a different perspective we might conclude that existence arises from something other than physical particles. If the evidence we have is for the existence of an invisible plane moderated by an invisible energy, and somehow from this arises a set of physical particles combining in a set form of patterns that form the material world we experience. This seems to suggest a fundamental question for science to ponder. How does this all occur? Where or what is, the organising algorithm?
Toltec wisdom suggests that the organising structure comes from perception, and impressed by intent. The tradition says that every sentient being assembles an impression of their universe in a concerted activity with others. All those with a similar constructed impression will be interactive, interdependent and interrelated. Essentially you will be friends with those you agree with, and enemies with those you disagree with, but the shared reality will have the same components as each other.
