Potentialities :
physical, biological, brain potentialities …
The spaces that we consider empty, as spatial intervals which separate the objects, are nevertheless filled of information and potentialities as the universal forces,
information and potentialities of transcendent order, which are so vectors of the divine world's nobility.
In particular, at elementary level of the beings, there are ceaseless anticipations (previsions for the future) ; the biological reactivities, for example by means of the immunization process, give evidence of it in a obvious way. Correlatively, multiple processes organizations with biological effects, multiple processes organizations with behavioral effects, even with deadly effects, are constantly diffused in the whole body, without change of "sense" during their transmission (notably when they cross cells's envelope).
These facts, what do they presuppose ?
------------------
When the world's knowledges were very elementary, Plato conscious of the potential state of things, already wondered where is the reality in itself (we have a representation of the reality but we do not know the "potential reality") :
"Parmenides : Because, Socrates, I imagine that you and any person, who say that there is of every thing a reality in itself, would admit, at first, that none of these realities is in our world.
Socrates : indeed, a "reality in itself", how could it be in our world ?" (cf. Plato - Parmenides, 133c).
Some centuries later, Plotinus has been, too, sensitive to potential state of the things before their actualization (let's remind that by "actualization", we understand materialization to become realities : materialization of the potential state to real state, of the timeless state to temporal state, of the unitary state to fractal state).
He wondered, for example :
- "The world up, does it contain all the things which are " here down " ?
Is not it possible to say that world up, is containing all things which are produced by a formal reason (logos) and according to a specific shape ? ...
But if it contains fire, it also contains water, it also contains, finally, plants.
Therefore the plants, how are they up ?
And fire of here down, how does it live ?
And earth of here down, how does it live ?
Because, or they live, or, being deprived of life, they will be nevertheless up, and so, it would be necessary to say, in this last case, that it is not true that all world up, is alive. " (cf. Treatise 38 - 11, 5),
- "Do animals preexist in the spirit ?
But horse and other animals, how can they be really present up ?
How not to be obliged from saying that to produce them, God was to look towards the things here down ?
But then, if so that there is here down a horse or some other animal, God had invented the notion of horse ?
Nevertheless, how would it be possible that, wanting to make a horse, he imagined the notion of horse ?
Because, it is evident, if he wanted exactly a horse, it was necessary that the notion of horse already was existing.
So, it was not possible that he imagine notion of horse for producing horse, but it was necessary, at first, that one horse not planned to be, exists, before the one who would be produced, later, after that.
If therefore horse was preexisting before he becomes reality and if it was not imagined before to be after produced, it is not because he looked towards the things here down that the one who possessed in him this spiritual Horse, had it in him and it is not because he had intention to produce the things here down that he had in him this spiritual Horse and other animals, but animals preexisted in him and here down animals inevitably came to continuation …
Indeed who could stop such a power who can be, at the same moment, in himself and out of himself ? " (cf. Treatise 38 - 8, 4 - 10).
Today, we can, and we must interrogate us more,
before its existence, before its perceptible state, how is reality ?
Sketched ? :
"Indeed, what does prevent the power of the Whole's Soul, because it is a reason (logos) which is all things, from making a first sketch of the animal forms and that the souls’s powers are reaching until these forms, this pre-sketch being, in a manner, a group of illuminations thrown, as a precursor, over matter ?
Then, the soul the role of which is finish of this sketch, has only to follow these pre-sketchs and to cut them according to their parts : so, every soul produces and becomes, herself, the part towards which her went …" (cf. Treatise 38 - 7, 10).
Without seeing in soul an operator as has imagined it Plotinus (soul is only a representative concept of the beings's spiritual identity), we believe nevertheless to "realism" (to existence) of a timeless domain where are potentialities that prefigure reality.
Unknown of philosophers and theologians, we have named this transcendent domain : spacimplicatio, designating so, the implication space of a divine creative entity in the world.
Because, evidently, it’s not some laws and principles which manage, lead, animate universe !
