Answers most doubts in my mind in life - universe, distinctions, aging etc,makes me a complete human and God concept was never needed. Not even "who lit the big bang match!"

A natural philosophy implies a complete philosophy of nature outlined here; and of universe birth (cosmogony) and science (cosmology) life-origins (evolution), birth, living (individualism), cooperation (politics), aging and disease (health)  – discussed elsewhere.

The name celebrate me and modern stoicism. Stoicism is a school of Hellenistic philosophy that flourished throughout the Roman and Greek world until the 3rd century AD. Stoicism is predominantly a philosophy of personal ethics which is informed by its system of logic and its views on the natural world. According to its teachings, as social beings, the path to happiness for humans is found in accepting this moment as it presents itself, by not allowing ourselves to be controlled by our desire for future pleasure or our fear of future pain, by using our minds to understand the world around us and to do our part in nature's plan, and by working together and treating others in a fair and just manner. Stoicism was founded in Athens by Zeno of Citium in the early 3rd century BC. The Stoics taught that emotions resulted in errors of judgment which were destructive, due to the active relationship between cosmic determinism and human freedom, and the belief that it is virtuous to maintain a will (called prohairesis) that is in accord with nature. Because of this, the Stoics presented their philosophy as a religion (lex divina), and they thought that the best indication of an individual's philosophy was not what a person said but how a person behaved.^[1] To live a good life, one had to understand the rules of the natural order since they taught that everything was rooted in nature

As has been repeatedly said by me since 2001 and by many top physicists for 50 years, the central problem in physics is the mating of Einstein’s relativistic gravity and Bohr’s quantum mechanics. Both are rare ubertheories, i.e. without known exception. There might be one in RG – Black matter may not exist, says Verlinde, just an improvement. In any case, RG defines the denizens of the cosmos, it is basic to cosmology of the Universe. QM is about the very small – atom and below. What does Quantum Gravity look like? Even as philosophically is in my interest.

That they even meet, is the presence of spectral lines in CMB. Anyone can measure CMB – it is simply the plot of radiation in the sky in all directions. At wave-lengths corresponding to radio waves, it has an isotropic equal nois-like in all directions with no fluctuations to 1 part in 100,000. This is the CMB. That experimentally proves that entire universe was once atom sized!

Very complex satellite measurements over decades has collected a 3D map of locations and sizes of galaxies. One can play the small CMB perturbations under 1 in 100,000 to the known measured 3D map! Known universe is the evolution of these quantum fluctuations.

In fact, one can proceed to pregnant science of Cosmogonies – why is something there, why do natural laws exist (come from symmetries), where do constants come from (geometric ratios), and do we know some laws are time invariant (Star formation in multi-billion year old galaxies). Moment concepts like God are to be ignored, all these questions arise. Can they even be answered!

This is where my philosophy takes a revolutionary turn by affirming they can be answered and postulating a credible distinct mechanism, generalized and understandable from mechanisms in regular science.

The key idea is emergence, basic to philosophy of life - evolution, which I consider an ubertheorie like QM and RG! Emergence is evolution of parts of a system with increasing complexity even while rest of the system serves as waste field with increasing entropy – its own and addition from the waste entropy of decreasing entropy! Life is increasing complexity that develops methods of reproduction. (Bolds are my definitions).

 Space and time are emergent concepts. They behave like normal for ordinary phenomenon, but may have differences in the extreme. Space and time are both quantized. Space has a maximum density it can support without exploding. So is gravity from entanglement! That is how Verlinde demolishes dark matter!

There are some falsifiable answers. We can test the constancy of laws by comparing certain processes like star formation in galaxies known to be several billion years old! If they are like now, constants are same and some laws are time-invariant! There are some pregnant science answers. For example there are six cosmogony theories. The one loved by me in structure, but not in detail, is the CCC theory of Penrose, with eternally cyclic universes, and information leaking at crunch-bounce necks across universes to make circles in latest CMB.

My own pregnantscience says that - quantum magic as macro-visible in double slit experimentscan be resolved in unmagical ways by Everett’s many world interpretation,partly improved by quantum chemistry and FULLY by my two dimension time. Furtherimprovements require another spatial dimension to a six dimensional universe.

Returning to unification of RG and QM to the desired QG. Can one unify gravity with triple union electro-weak? Thru QG. But we need falsifiable way for that. But that needs a pregnant science for that! Or perhaps outline of experiments doable in future! Here is recent -

One proposal (published dec 2017) is -All existing quantum-gravity proposals are extremely hard to test in practice. Quantum effects in the gravitational field are exceptionally small, unlike those in the electromagnetic field. The fundamental reason is that the gravitational coupling constant is about 43 orders of magnitude smaller than the fine structure constant, which governs light-matter interactions. For example, detecting gravitons—the hypothetical quanta of the gravitational field predicted by certain quantum-gravity proposals—is deemed to be practically impossible. Here we adopt a radically different, quantum-information-theoretic approach to testing quantum gravity. We propose witnessing quantumlike features in the gravitational field, by probing it with two masses each in a superposition of two locations. First, we prove that any system (e.g., a field) mediating entanglement between two quantum systems must be quantum. This argument is general and does not rely on any specific dynamics. Then, we propose an experiment to detect the entanglement generated between two masses via gravitational interaction. By our argument, the degree of entanglement between the masses is a witness of the field quantization. This experiment does not require any quantum control over gravity. It is also closer to realization than detecting gravitons or detecting quantum gravitational vacuum fluctuations.

Another (also published dec 2017) is - 

Understanding gravity in the framework of quantum mechanics is one of the great challenges in modern physics. However, the lack of empirical evidence has lead to a debate on whether gravity is a quantum entity. Despite varied proposed probes for quantum gravity, it is fair to say that there are no feasible ideas yet to test its quantum coherent behavior directly in a laboratory experiment. Here, we introduce an idea for such a test based on the principle that two objects cannot be entangled without a quantum mediator. We show that despite the weakness of gravity, the phase evolution induced by the gravitational interaction of two micron size test masses in adjacent matter-wave interferometers can detectably entangle them even when they are placed far apart enough to keep Casimir-Polder forces at bay. We provide a prescription for witnessing this entanglement, which certifies gravity as a quantum coherent mediator, through simple spin correlation measurements

Bayesian Medicine

major: Must click links, philosophy

Collects my belief, offered not as a new system of medicine, but a set of practices for interpreting medical advice, nutraceutical studies, food studies, friendly but biased medical advice, self-reported experiences and belief, and most important understand advice to improve vitality and prolong healthy life.

This is my serious interest now, with strong rational-stoic epistemology, minutely different from rational-sceptic which is the basis of science. The essential difference is that the stoic believes in some things, and pays to have the basis of belief examined.You cannot doubt forever, certain professional doubters exist and statistical basis of belief with randomized examination or fresh examination ordered. In other words, the inspection teams are split into competing halves with partial reinspection removing veracity doubts!

In other words, inspectors are assumed to be fundamentally dishonest and unlike the manufacturer, MUST prove their innocence. A small portion of the population must use the guilty-unless-innocent paradigm in pretold professions, solely applicable by consent transparently.

To baymed, the goal is solely certain self-responsible gerontology, everything else in the hands of epistemology-western medical doctors. Aging is not recognised as disease by them, it’s your ownresponsibility and MY baymed recognises it as exponential decay of energy production with host of opportunist problems.

Beyond generalities here is the crux here that makes visible sense– adopt it for a month and continue it only if you feel more vital (forgetNAD+) for now.

Epistemology of pronouncements on Aging

Must click links

Aging has been favourite target of humans for 5000 years at least, counting back from today. Everyone who has tried has used his/her best epistemology of the period, of no fruitful results. This is also the favourite target of existing 3 billion better off than me. So why do I believe in myself?

Of the 3 billion, under 100 million are believers in methodology of science. Rest are religion-enslaved morons. I suspect, under million are sufficiently conversant with philosophy of science applied to them. Rest are advertisement-enslaved morons.

Here is a little anecdote. I had teeth problems, eventually ended up in Boston centre run by some University. In return for low prices, you had to have dental work done by students, under guidance of course. My problems were diagnosed as fixable only by extraction of a molar. I had a scientific discussion of alternatives, even ignorant of dental science! “do it”, I permitted, fixed, returned and studied up the science. Philosophically, I decided diabetes was the culprit, agreed to by Indian doc in India, years later while extracting another tooth. Eventual mostly implants in upper jaw – even that makes anatomic sense!

He (dentist senior intern) guessed correctly I was a scientist. “Easy to guess,” he confided, “Only them can discuss their own tooth in an objective way”!

World grows old, that is the destiny, as is tricks to delay old age common. Sir capitalist knows this and devastates Sir customer without a trace of discrimination! All kinds of products and even medical specialities exist. The scene has millions of products, food habits, exercises, experts etc. to do this! Goal (mine) is to formulate a clear epistemology and apply it brutally using internet as very infected shit with a few diamonds.

My researches are directed to me, perhaps different as Indian race, male, elderly with psychological and physical deficits. To me, Aging is accumulated DNA damage and manifests as exponential decline in energy cycles with age .I have diagnosed all my physical deficits from TBI, race and diabetes. Here is how the fix proceeds –

TBI Psychological unfixed but steady glacial improvement from Depakote divalproex sodium.

Heart from prescriptions and CoQ10.

Race by Calcium and D3.

Aging is manifest from exponential decay in Krebs cycle. Fixing can buy vitality and 10 years through tight glycemic control. Fixed by CoQ10,  NMN, lipoic Acid.

The goal is costs within 6-7 $ per day.  I can do parents for $10 both – great swap for cooked food and shelter.

Another belief is only metformin for diabetes. Philosophically, I believe that everyone has sugar spikes, lot more damaging to diabetics, but marginally injurious nonetheless. Sugar in blood is reduced in two ways

1.       Preventing sugar release

2.       Digesting the released sugar by insulin

 Working by method 1 must control aging. Metformin is 1, by preventing release from liver. Acarbose is another, causing problems in sugar digestion in stomach! Another way is fasting! So if correct, acarbose and fasting must also have life-extension effects! So as my diabetes worsens (2000 mg/day to max 2500 mg someday) I will prefer by adding Acarbose likes, rather than Insulin makers, increases or insulin itself.

Prelude
Another idealization of Krebs as TCA

Its basis is the Krebs’s cycle that underlies aging and not a known recognized ailment. Krebs’s cycle is complex and can be approximated by three – Citric acid, NADH-NAD+ and ATP-ADP. Actually there are several cycles as sub cycle of the main Krebs-citric acid cycle but the idealization merging many sub cycles into 1 makes sense, as does merging ATP=ADP and GTP-GDP cycles. We are not very interested in chemical details or location.

1.       ATP-ADP is involved in heart etc. Best way to address is CoQ10-Shilajit combination.

2.       NADH-NAD+ is best addressed by NMN supplementation or by weaker Niagen route.

3.       Citric acid cycle is addressed by alpha-lipoic acid. Lipoic acid is co-factor to five chemicals at least! At least 2 are part of Krebs cycle.

Currently, as I believe immensely in my own research and extensive many year chasing of references, subjecting to my suspicious epistemology and total ignore post even mildly believable accusations essentially resolved by guilty-unless-proven-innocent paradigm; I take these -

1 Niagen (progress to NMN soon) for NADH-NAD+

2. Alpha – Lipoic Acid for citric Acid

3. CoQ10 + Shilajit (Ramdev) for ATP-ADP

4. A-Z vitamins for trace completeness

5. Calcium and D3 sachet - welcome to India and Sun escape.

Despite plethora of Diseases, bad teeth eyes, and soles from past rampant diabetes, with above, food control and exercise I live hopeful of surviving to the point my psychological deficits can be addressed.

Ingredients can be combined in to cheaper balanced East-West nutraceuticals at least as pure as the suppliers, transparently identified (Suppliers would welcome free publicity), aggregated in my communitarian-libertarian ways (transparent limited mark-up). For this purpose, a franchise from Ramdev or Sriveda is a perfect way to go and a possible escape from SS.

Just in case you wish to go alone, consider that

1.       The dosages are critical as is relational to food and details of administration

2.       Results of self and family experimentation (4 man years) is there. By the time you are done, n*num-customer years of more experience with me. What is more, absent IBE and Super-medium, no one can catch me!

3.       Shilajit is Bad FOR HIGH BLOOD PRESSURES AND CONTAINDICATED! Others?

4.       You have to consider joint effects!

Best do not try, except under strict guidance!                             

The problem of legacy bias

Must click links

Behind the neutral words are strongly felt issues of discrimination, its legacy, determination and management. Proper determination is critical for many individual are seen to be biased even when they are consciously not! There is the strong feeling of reverse-discrimination. That and not sudden magic, that underlies the new life in far right. Far left (communist) and far right (fascist) generate each other.

Caste differences:

Current absolution not enough: Only the stupid talk openly about domination now. Even in private, code words are used. But let us raise the deepest true concerns –

Would you be treated by a reservation doctor?

Would you live in a house designed or constructed by a reservation engineer?

Interestingly, I consider ALL doctors to be equivalently stupid unless I have no choice (when reservation status is immaterial), for example knowing about Bayesian statistics and its distinction from frequentist. Here is MY basis of difference – in frequentist, the hypothesis in a test has never any relevant history – one decides based on outcomes of test. Bayesian says history is all important, a test collects strengthening or weakening probabilities. Thus Ayurveda is mostly, but not fully nonsense, unless it has been disproved! Four things (must be more) that survive usefully are trikuta, triphala, cywanprash and Shilajit. For low frequency events, reservations do not bother me (reservation status is lot less crucial to right amount of cement!).

In other words, reservation status is far less than other cofactors. Only reason against is reverse-discrimination and applicability. First can be addressed by constitutional sunset and global-limit (50%), second means-test (easy with aadhaar, private with v-aadhaar), number of ranks and once per family.

Caste concerns are nearly applicable to sex, disabilities, special abilities (irrelevant but considered like sports) etc.

Only way to avoid status of multiple discrimination (Dalit women) is to implement a point system and aggregation rule!

The situation must be addressed by “Judge keep out” rule because it is very political. Supreme court made a 50% rule once. Thereafter this rule applies (constitutional). In any case, some states violate the rule, one (even parliament)  cannot change the structure of constitution and delete fundamental rights, answer to evil rules is admit reverse-discrimination pleas.

Free speech and Modern sub animals

Must click links

 Like chapter 11 of "Satyartha Prakash", what follows is implicit review of existing, in that they will flat on 1 point or more. That mine does not, likely extensible by you to new situations you can imagine or encounter, develop criticism on your own without help, feeling that you can ask for help in the rare cases of doubt, means I have done THE excellent job.

As has been repeatedly pointed out to me – abusive words do no strengthen the argument and I agree. I still use them to indicate my own lack of tolerance forsome opponents. While very few is number, I do hold as deserving some intemperate views on some – child sexual protagonists, cannibals, etc. as free-speech criminals. But only criminals, not different in opinion, or details.

Free speech has painfully but inexorably won the day. Not even I suggest burning of the few tome or proponents opposed to me. I do advocate retirement to libraries (access publically available) to tomes as above, or how to make bombs, launch sarin attacks on metro-tunnels, sex life of Martian aliens etc. Every censored material is NEVER prohibited, either it can be displayed; or not. If not displayable, it must be encrypted well, but the keys have to be made publically available painlessly - only to record the access list and protect the sensibilities of the opponents – with thwarting technological techniques used only to prevent untraceable copies.

Let us call this arun-arya censoring. Consider .latest wired abstract : The traditional censorship model—find the information conduit and apply pressure—has all but collapsed. “Whose throat do you squeeze when anyone can set up a Twitter account in seconds, and when almost any event is recorded by smartphone-wielding members of the public?” writes Zeynep Tufekci, sociologist at the University of North Carolina. Your speech is free. But you are not.

See, while this may be the golden age of free speech, it is not the golden age of truthfulness. The attention-harvesting and ad-targeting strategies of big tech are all too compatible with misinformation campaigns and censorship enforced by outraged, viral hordes. “Free speech is usually understood as a vehicle ... for creating a knowledgeable public; for engendering healthy, rational, and informed debate; for holding powerful people and institutions accountable; for keeping communities lively and vibrant,” Tufekci writes. “What we are seeing now is that when free speech is treated as an end and not a means, it is all too possible to thwart and distort everything it is supposed to deliver.”

Also: Ex-Uber engineer Anthony Lewandowski faces claims of stealing trade secrets, an antifascist maintains a database of far-right foes, and at-home genetic testing companies claim to know your baby’s traits before they’re even born.

The conflicts in censoring are very complex, no one but me have been able to solve this judicial dilemma over past 5000 or more years. I can, have discussed in this essay, consider nondeterministic solutions from ANY religion to be sub animal, REQUIRE ANY opponent to SHUTUP or ARGUE in public! 

True extreme mental conflict is Cloudfare, the DDos protection company from vigilante hackers, also police! Their bigger argument is about the danger of private companies like Cloudflare (not to mention Google or Amazon Web Services) determining what constituted acceptable speech. “Without a clear framework as a guide for content regulation,” Their Prince explained, “a small number of companies will largely determine what can and cannot be online.” Perhaps his most striking point came in a separate memo he wrote to his staff. “Literally, I woke up in a bad mood and decided someone shouldn’t be allowed on the internet. No one should have that power.”PRINCE’S DILEMMA OVER the Daily Stormer has been present in net culture from the early days of online communities. 

Solution is simple to state –

Every nation (UNO) has a recognised majority (accepted by active majority) which can determine any speech to be offensive and order it to be well encrypted or decrpted, solely force-determine the reader list (technologically one can prohibit untraceable copying and  false-flag references), the list itself encrypted and decrypted according to laws of the nation.

This solution allows prevention of external enemies from collaborating with locals inciting resistance against totalitarian regimes. But can never silence encryptions chosen by the end-points under the rules. Committed source can still win. Point is loss of an easy way to use internet! Never should be important for police work! In fact, totalitarian regimes will likely be my first clients!

"Cannot communicate inside" can still be done done using this very clever simple solution, or my technological solution even legacy by my technological means. 

 In short, above be written as: Every nation (UNO) has a recognised majority (accepted by active majority) that can arun-arya-censor (as  in latest arun-arya-dictionary) any speech.

Rest is significantly more interesting as many applications are considered. Any one dumb enough to think having a better solution must be able to present solutions to all the following.
