INTRODUCTION: Destiny is Real               [BACK TO TOP] 

by David Knox Barker
Author of The K Wave
Irwin Professional Publishing

Every generation witnesses advances in the hard sciences and the emergence of new theories about the design and structure of the universe. But progress in the form of philosophical discourse about man’s unique role as a thinking and willing participant in the universe, in light of new hard science, is rare. We have come to worship at the altar of technological advance. Material and mechanical progress is glorified. Reflective thought about our role as fallible beings with herd instincts is eschewed.

Our civilization has crawled out on a technological limb, taking up the mantra that progress will always have an answer, always save us from ourselves. A few leading scientists in the fields of physics, microbiology and mathematics, stunned by the unknowns of relativity and chaos theory, have been edging back off the same limb, waxing more philosophical than scientific at what they are discovering. Philosophical insight, when combined with the scientific evidence, can give us a new perspective. This book melds science and philosophy. The result is the raw power of rough but original theory in its purest form.

Truly new systems of thought, those that would ascend to the level of the holy grail of a unified theory, are as rare as civilizations, and would appear to be lost with them. Rome thought it had the answers for science and society. We know little of what great works have been lost over the millenniums. What secrets burned in the library in Alexandria, or produced the mathematics to build the pyramids? What systems of thought, perhaps unwritten, would unlock the secrets of Stonehenge, or delivered the unified vision before the confusion that destroyed Babylon? Fully cognizant of the boldness of the claim, I suggest that this book is such a work.

The use of a major market index chart for field analysis is unique. It overlays a rough sum of the action of human particle participants in fields of space and matter with reference points in time. It is not a static shot of matter at a fixed point in time. It displays the energy released in the flow of time. Field theory applied to markets is a reasonable request.

For years science has studied the rotation of the earth around the sun and has interpreted the orbit and the planet as the real thing. The fixed location of planets based on Newtonian physics was tangible. But beginning with the work of James Clerk Maxwell, on electromagnetic fields, field theory has come to suggest that the gravitational field is the real thing. The precise location of the planet’s mass in a space time orbit is only the present but passing physical manifestation of the invisible field. In the same spirit of such fields, a point on a stock index chart is only one point in space and time for the orbit of the social organism known as civilization. The influence exerted by the whole field of interconnected human particles, all pursuing their individual action, is more real than its present suspended position in space and time. Quantum field theory is now saying the same thing at the atomic and sub-atomic level for matter in space and time.

A select few that read this book will begin to see the patterns. You may have sensed them all along. Either there is a great force at work in our universe or there is not. The presence of pattern suggests life is no mere accident, but arose by design. It manifests a grand scheme. If you accept that Destiny is Real, you will increasingly begin to marvel at the wonder of the patterns. There is indeed order within the chaos, producing, as P.Q. is fond of saying, “the sunlight of the mind”.

FOREWORD: Destiny is Real                    [BACK TO TOP]

by P.Q. Wall
The life work of the author has been an empirical uncovering of a repetitive sequence of public moods that underlie changes in the historical/economic realm, a sort of Chinese nest of boxes on four levels, shorter inside of longer, that repeats also fractally. That is to say, it repeats in time and also on descending levels of size within time.

In a way this is two books in one. Financial people will find interest in Parts One and Two to see if these findings can be made to work for them. Actual excerpts from our market letter, which is a matter of public record, show in Part Two a series of forecasting hits that could not possibly be chance.
   
But there will be others more intrigued by what this might imply about the world we live in. These might wish to turn directly to Part Three Chapter VIII to find our thoughts on this score. In essence this interpretation follows a line of Heraclitus, Nietzsche and Spengler in developing a warring subjective/objective dualism that must have parallel in the macrocosm since it bespeaks the inmost essence of microcosmic me.

Chapter VII, from an older version of this book, attempts to draw further applications far and wide from the central thesis in a discursive and densely packed manner. Even close readers might want to omit it entirely.

Academics in their aeries solemnly pronounce that market movements are random. Yet if one reads Market Wizards and the New Market Wizards by Jack Schwager for a peep into reality one finds untold billions moved daily by those who study trends. The dogmatic hypocrisy of it is ludicrous. Are not emotions public as well as private? Is not the public angry in wars, greedy for pleasure in decadence, frightened and gloomy in a depression?

Is everything in the world controlled by fields—except emotional events? This question shows that science is never more subjective than when confronting the subjective. Like a mischievous boy this book upsets the whole anti-instinctive apple-cart of science and for this alone, even setting aside its theoretical discoveries, it is a new departure for science.

Yet the author knows also that these matters are somewhat more controversial than the Pythagorean theorem, and that the tough-minded aspects of these discoveries may have to wait for a less democratic science of the future, one given more freedom to pursue this branch of truth.

In this book I would like to think that science turns a corner from the study of things toward an equal or greater study of forms. But in the end forms cannot be studied without three assumptions now considered mere baggage of philosophy: 1. world purpose, 2. values, and 3. a special gift needed in those who verify.

Yet the new principia of this turn in the road can be stated simply as unity breaks down into warring contraries. All things are:


Six of our twelve contraries are those below the dashed line. The other six are seen below. These show the threeness principle in time which appears in joyful beginnings. vs. gloomy endings of what are called here cyclic Months (not actual months). Everywhere in symbolism and mythology are these twelve contraries.



This new departure must reject only one world view, naive reductive materialism. Its mourners should recall that our observations arose empirically when aspects of trends led to better forecasting in the financial markets than accounting or economic studies.


The obvious conclusion was that trends, and the collective unconscious behind them, dictate events—not the opposite as people think.

The ancients did not mince words. The superior pattern recognition of the wisest ones could see that form-purpose opposes thing-purpose in the world, that this opposition in fact is the world. And so they called the mysterious form-purpose spirit or soul and they recognized that higher forms of it were guiding mankind unbeknownst to it.

Meaningful coincidence, a mysterious/telepathic coordination at a distance, is now absolutely proven to underlie the world in modern physics. Without it, how could the life force rise in complexity to counter for so long a time the running down of mechanical clocks? There is a long and growing list of the most bizarre long shot oddities discovered about our universe, without any one of which higher forms could not have arisen, collected in modern physics under the rubric of the Anthropomorphic Principle.

To Hegel with his dialectic, to Schopenhauer with his Will to Life, to Nietzsche with his Will to Power, to Spengler with his organic rise and fall of civilizations it was obvious long ago that material particles moving randomly by a few mechanical laws could hardly be the whole story. The democratic view is that their insights will be crumbled by science. To the contrary, science is now on the fault line of far deeper discoveries where it has been preceded by them, and by thinkers like Heraclitus long before them and others even before that in prehistoric eras who discerned ongoing principles of form-purpose.

The extent to which the ancients divined these notions, and the extent to which we can prove it, are of minute importance compared to the scientific truth of them. But the aristocracy of pattern recognition would far have antedated physical science.

Science will have to spread past the now visible fault line of mere thing-purpose into this more aristocratic realm of higher pattern recognition, or else give up truth itself and simply perish in the fanatical rear guard action of the increasingly strident Ayatollahs of neo-Darwinism. The outrageous moralistic dogmatism of current scientific journals already shows that few scientists are equipped for these new realms. Where the most advanced interplay of forms meets matter, i.e. in biology or in artificial intelligence (brain/computer/mind comparisons) there have the high priests like Richard Dawkins and Stephen Jay Gould gathered to warn us off any theories beyond their own random/materialist/mechanical monomania.

Science will have to improve its product into areas less commercially salable to the naive utopian masses, or finally have no new product at all. We have already seen the earthly hell derived from the supposedly scientific principles of Marx. In the next few centuries Big Brother will rise and then begin to die as he retreats toward Asia in the manner of Constantine.
The story of Noah's ark may be the metaphor of a new level of insight, into which all those we love cannot be fitted.

Scholars are slow motion people whose avoidance of the fast lane does not entirely arise from ascetic self-denial. In our own age right here and now scholars have become a model of what all people should supposedly be. Scholars are clearly useful and by slowing reality down in the observation of details they uncover much useful information. But real life decisions in the heat of competition are of necessity hurried and hence more dependent on flash judgements, overview and superior pattern recognition.

These abilities, and the greater immersion in the more urgent time world of form-purpose may explain certain reservations about scholars often held by men of affairs and in particular more aristocratic ones.

A final point: if one sees a wolf searching the forest randomly for food that does not necessarily mean that the forest and the wolf within it must have arisen by purely random processes. In the same way, if the life force rises to higher complexity by natural selection of accidental mutations, this does not necessarily disprove a larger guidance.
