Information

Basics

Information can be defined in several ways. If you ask a physicist or an engineer they will say that information is a quantity akin to mass, energy, or temperature and is always tied to physical matter. If you ask a statistician, you may hear that information is condensed data, with meaningful patterns extracted in the form of averages, standard deviations, dispersion, etc. In common terms of everyday life information can be defined as a content of data that reduces uncertainty.

Energy

When someone throws the word “energy” into the discussion, the topic of conversation could be any number of subjects. When it is applied to scientific disciplines and fields, it has an undeniable connection to life force. In the scientific realm, energy remains a mystery in the field of Physics. Within many religions, including Scientology, energy remains undefined, but has a clear role to play. Energy could be a word that we use to describe many different things, and with language, words like this often exist. Another possibility which is equally interesting is that we are talking about the same energy in each case. If this is true, then the seemingly opposing forces of science and religion might have a common link.

Time-Energy Continuum

I decided to put this post into the Fundamentals section, as it covers the three main elements of reality: Time, Energy and Information. The third one was excluded from the title, because the Information and Energy are combined together and are inseparable in their existence. You will see why later. Just like the three primary colors of light: red, green and blue make any color, so do these three – each contributes to a resultant manifestation of what you see, experience, and deal with day-to-day.
