E=MC2 is the mathematical equation formulated by Albert Einstein in 1905 to express the ultimate equivalence of matter and energy. "E" stands for energy, "M" for mass or quantity of matter, and "C" for the speed of light (186,000 miles per second) multiplied by itself.

This formula shows that the amount of energy represented by any given material object can be determined by multiplying its mass by the speed of light squared. Thus, the formula represents the actual conversion of matter into energy.

This conversion takes place in the nuclear reactions that produce light-energy in all stars and in man-made atomic or nuclear weapons. Albert Einstein (A.D. 1879-1955) is considered one of the greatest scientific geniuses of human history.

His discoveries in theoretical physics revolutionized modern man's understanding of the nature and structure of the universe. He was awarded a Nobel Prize for his work in 1921.

The theories of "relativity" as originally presented by many physicists during the course of this century, propose the relative rather than absolute character of motion, velocity, mass, and other principle factors in the physics of nature and the interdependence of matter, time, and space as a four-dimensional continuum.

Einstein proposed the "special theory of relativity," which is concerned principally with electro magnetic phenomena and the dynamics of their activity in time and space, and the "General theory of relativity," which is concerned principally with electromagnetic phenomenon and the dynamics of their activity in time and space, and the "General Theory of Relativity," which is principally concerned with the concept of gravitation and the equality of gravitational mass and inertial mass. He and many others refined these theories over the years and sought to develop a "Unified Field Theory" that would account for all the paradoxical properties and interactions of all known phenomenon of the universe.

In the physics of the worlds, ETHER or "FUNCTIONAL ENERGY" is the senior or most subtle of the gross elements, which also include solid, liquid, fiery, and gaseous substances (the ancient esoteric elements of earth, water, fire and air). ETHER, the most subtle state of gross or material appearance, is the all-pervading element of the physical universe, analogous to space itself. The etheric dimension of force or "manifest light" (let there be light) pervades and surrounds our universe and every physical body. It is the field of energy, magnetism, and space in which the lower or grosser elements function. Thus, your ETHERIC BODY is the specific concentration of force associated with and surrounding-permeating your physical body. It serves as a conduit for the force of universal light and energy to the physical body. The etheric aspect of the being is our emotional-sexual, feeling nature, the etheric body functions through and corresponds to the nervous system, functioning as a medium between the conscious mind and the dimension of vitality of life-force. We feel the etheric dimension of life not only as vital energy and power and magnetic-gravitational forces, but also as the endless play of emotional polarization, positive and negative, to others, objects, the world itself, everything that arises.

If we approach the matter of the universe as honest physicists, as scientists, who are truly sensitive to the higher physics of things, we realize that the material universe is energy, that it is light, that all material events are an expression of another dimension than what we can matter. That matter is itself energy. That it behaves as energy, that matter and the universe and therefore mankind, every single individual being, is a paradoxical manifestation of infinite energy, and that the struggle to trace the chain of material causes and effects back to and even beyond the so called "Big Bang" is an unenlightened approach to understanding the universe of experience and contemplation.
