Chaos is an ancient concept with a problem; it is a name for the indescribable.
Remove time from the universe and the means of description used by man collapses.
Remove substance and there is nothing to talk about,
Remove space and there is even less.
Throughout man’s history the recognition of the above has led to definitions that talk of Chaos as nothing, a void, abyss or chasm. It has been recognized as that which preceded the universe, the prima materia but our language trap leads to wording that gives no idea of Chaos.
Chaos is anything but nothing, it is everything outside man’s experience.
Chaos does not exist in the sense that man exists yet it is from Chaos that the universe and man come.
Chaos is timeless, not in a sense of eternity but in the sense that time has no meaning. Yet out of Chaos time will arise.
Chaos has no dimensions but it is not located in a point. It lies outside any concept of space.
In the absence of time and space the substance of chaos is immeasurable, unknowable finite values of the infinite possibilities. But the potential for substance is there and it has emerged in specific forms within our universe.
Chaos is X/0. It is infinite possibility, it isn’t in any sense zero.
Whenever mankind expands his experience he removes something from Chaos. Chaos is not diminished by that for it is infinite and the infinite grows no smaller when something is removed.
It is not what is in Chaos or what Chaos offers that helps mankind but the examination of what has come out of Chaos. Chaos is incapable of reacting or responding to mankind while man's reactions to Chaos merge into the infinite.
The above framework underpins this work of mine.
