3 basic principles in electricity

   In the field of electricity man has recognized, from scientific examination, 3 basic principles:  the thrust or voltage, the current called amperage, and the resistance called ohms.  Volts x amps divided by ohms was later realized to be the integrated equation producing work, called wattage.  This picture is very natural—rivers run somewhat similarly.  Pinning these principles down very clearly allowed for development of the large dynamics of electricity and then the followup of electronics.

  For some reason or other man has been slow to realize that this tripartite basic operation of electricity is universal, that man’s very physical body has this happening within the nervous, blood circulation, lymph circulation, lung system (which are in turn anchored into a skeletal structure/operation)--added in are muscular, endocrine, digestive, immune, reproductive systems, thus making some 10 altogether.

  The tripartite basis naturally shows up in many fields.  We use beginning, middle and end; in religion or in nuclear physics this plays:  nucleus and its electron field with magnetic/electrical dynamic of atom/molecule; the terms brahma, vishnu, shiva are similar.  The triangle-like conception shows up a lot, it seems.

  Francis Bacon in 1597 wrote in his Essays that there are 4 pillars of government:  religion, counsel, treasure and justice.  We might say “bedrock values/ commitment” if one needed a different term than religion.  Why is this pillar-stuff fourfold rather than tripartite?  It may be that Bacon was more perceptive than many, hence including religion in this grouping, rather than making a case for utterly secular government where high ethics is pushed to the back burner or perhaps neglected entirely.

  Now with worldwide fast communications money, or treasure, “moves”/shifts readily and very rapidly roundabout all the time, which is in itself a sudden shift for mankind that began with mapping geography and putting in telegraph.  Perhaps rapid developments in counsel, justice and religion are lagging behind at this point.                 -R., Mt.
