Adib Ben Jebara's "About A New Philosophy" —

 

Introduction

Adib Ben Jebara introduces a revolutionary philosophical framework

that bridges metaphysics, mathematics, and spirituality. His core

idea is that thoughts are mathematical waves—eternal, unchangeable,

and non-perishable—that form the foundation of the soul's immortality.

This perspective redefines the afterlife as a realm where the soul continues

beyond physical death, grounded in the eternal nature of thought itself.

 

Key Concepts

 

Thoughts as Mathematical Waves

 

Thoughts are seen as mathematical waves that persist eternally.

Since these waves are non-perishable, the soul, which is partly

composed of thoughts, is inherently immortal.

The afterlife is interpreted as the continuation of this spiritual wave,

where consciousness persists beyond physical death.

The Universe as a Mathematical Structure

 

The universe operates according to mathematical laws.

God is envisioned as a divine mathematician who creates order

through mathematical principles.

These laws govern natural phenomena, ethics, and the structure of reality.

Reconsidering Divine Omnipotence

 

Ben Jebara challenges traditional views of divine omnipotence.

He argues that God is not all-powerful in the classical sense,

citing the finite amount of matter in an infinite universe as evidence.

Instead, God allows order to reign over chaos, which is temporary.

Chance, Chaos, and Evil

 

Chance is an integral part of divine design, arising from

the finite matter within an infinite universe.

Evil is attributed to the limitations of physical matter

and is less significant because matter is finite.

Chaos and determinism coexist; chaos is temporary, and cause-and-effect

relationships shape reality.

Spiritual Energy and Vitality

 

Inspired by Henri Bergson, Ben Jebara conceptualizes spiritual energy as

the energy of the mind in motion—an immaterial, quantifiable force.

He suggests that spiritual energy is proportional to the square of wave

amplitudes, connecting it to the creative vitality of the soul and body.

Critique of Modern Science and Academia

 

He criticizes the materialistic focus of current science and academic

institutions.

Advocates for integrating scientific observation with metaphysical and

mathematical frameworks.

Emphasizes the importance of exploring new axioms to better understand

infinity and mathematical truths.

Mathematics, Infinity, and Set Theory

 

Highlights the limitations of existing axioms, such as the Axiom of Choice,

in understanding infinities.

Calls for the development of new axioms to advance mathematical and

metaphysical understanding.

Discusses the relevance of set theory and the nature of infinities in

relation to divine omnipotence.

Implications and Philosophical Outlook

 

Unified View of Science, Spirituality, and Metaphysics

 

The universe is seen as a divine mathematical masterpiece, created by

a cosmic mathematician (God).

The philosophy encourages curiosity about ancient mathematical and

philosophical questions, like Fermat’s Last Theorem, emphasizing their

relevance today.

Criticism of Societal Trends

 

Modern society's anti-intellectualism, bureaucratic rigidity, and extreme

specialization hinder true progress.

Genuine advancement requires talented individuals willing to face hardships and

challenge established beliefs.

Encouragement for Intellectual Exploration

 

Ben Jebara urges revisiting old mysteries and mathematical inquiries,

emphasizing that many questions remain unresolved or underexplored.

Summary of Core Ideas

 

Thoughts are eternal mathematical waves underpinning the soul’s immortality.

The universe is governed by divine mathematical laws, with God as a mathematician.

Chance and randomness are natural parts of divine design, arising from

the finite within the infinite.

Evil stems from matter's limitations, while chaos is temporary.

Spiritual energy, akin to the mind's energy, can be modeled mathematically.

Progress in knowledge depends on talented, resilient thinkers willing

to confront difficulties.

Society must embrace scientific metaphysics and seek new axioms to better understand

infinity and divine reality.

Additional Notes

 

His work also discusses the limitations of current axioms in set theory and

the need for innovative approaches.

He advocates for a philosophy that unifies science, spirituality, and metaphysics,

viewing the universe as a divine mathematical construct.

Closing Reflection

Ben Jebara’s philosophy invites a reevaluation of traditional beliefs, encouraging

curiosity about the divine order expressed through mathematics and the eternal

nature of thought. It emphasizes that understanding the universe requires integrating

scientific rigor with metaphysical insight.

 

Note: Some statements, such as the nature of divine omnipotence and the role of chance,

are part of Ben Jebara's philosophical exploration and may not reflect universally

accepted scientific or theological views.

Shortcuts to Development and the Path to Progress

by Adib Ben Jebara

 

Reproducing effective structures and maintaining high levels of education are key

shortcuts to development.

Achieving this requires eliminating xenophobia and anti-intellectualism.

The success rate of secondary school graduates serves as an important indicator of

the efforts needed to reach acceptable development levels.

A skilled workforce is essential for economic growth.

The high dropout rate from higher education is problematic, as is the tendency to offer

overly narrow specializations.

Research should focus on solving real-world problems; theories must serve to answer

concrete questions.

On Education and Culture

 

Many individuals do not seek to educate themselves or recognize the truth, which limits

their understanding of existing organizational systems.

There is a growing awareness that we must return to the classics.

Classic works were inherently creative; today, extreme specialization hampers this creativity.

Investing more in education leads to greater cultural richness.

On Economics and Society

 

To overcome economic crises, we must understand how things evolve and think creatively.

People should pursue vocations driven by passion, not just money.

Religions hinder long-term economic development.

Marxism often leads to state capitalism, which can restrict freedoms such as free expression.

Both religions and Marxism are now considered outdated.

Prophetic messages from the deceased were useful in their time, but current emphasis

should be on studying nature, as Descartes advocated.

Studying natural laws encourages the absence of "blah blah" — superficial chatter.

Most people live without contemplating the afterlife; this attitude needs to change.

Concentration and focus are vital for forming informed opinions.

Matter has always existed in successive universes in various forms; it cannot be created

from nothing.

On Philosophy and Scientific Inquiry

 

Moving beyond capitalism, we need effective problem-solving, especially in public services

which have stagnated for decades.

Anti-intellectualism, bureaucratic behavior, and extreme specialization hinder progress and

results-oriented solutions.

I hold philosophical theories about the existence of an afterlife, viewing thoughts as

mathematical waves that continue to exist beyond physical death.

I also propose a philosophical approach to climate change, advocating for a lifestyle that

emphasizes mental activity over physical exertion.

Conceptually, there are multiple "skies": Plato's realm of Ideas or Forms, the sky of spiritual

energies, and the mathematical sky.

Questions arise about whether spiritual energies are destroyed in the universe’s "Big Crunch" or

whether all thoughts are recorded as mathematical waves in the mathematical sky.

Some thoughts, though seemingly insignificant, may turn out to be crucial.

People with exceptional intuition might be able to "read" this mathematical sky — a process akin

to telepathy.

On Modern Philosophy and Empiricism

 

Today’s dominant philosophy is empiricism, often dismissing philosophy as useless. However,

philosophy remains especially valuable now, especially with the advent of new philosophical ideas.

Most people focus solely on material needs, as matter resists divine influence.

The small populations of places like Singapore and Hong Kong limit the development of new theories.

Hardworking individuals form the intellectual elite, but they are often not well-versed in

the classics.

My own ideas about interesting topics have sometimes caused difficulties for me.

I believe that evil has attributes that depend on the mathematical universe considered;

applying my philosophy allows us to refer to alternate mathematical universes.

I have written about this in my article, "About the Strength of Evil."

On the Nature of Scientific and Mathematical Progress

 

No theory is final; we must always seek new knowledge.

Even religions do not encompass all that could be understood.

Many disciplinary crossroads are ignored, yet they are essential for progress.

Without the philosophy of mathematics, many axioms and discoveries would not emerge.

According to Kurt Godel’s theorem, there are infinitely many axioms to explore.

Our world faces numerous problems because much of the work is merely administrative, not

innovative.

Intellectual development should be prioritized over income alone.

Philosophies of fatalism or auto-satisfaction must be challenged.

On Cosmology and Space-Time

from the November 2018 article “About Space and Time”

 

The universe contains a finite amount of matter, yet space itself is infinite.

If the number of particles in the universe is infinite, it must be at least aleph-zero, but

there are no aleph-zero positions among the Dedekind cardinalities.

On Civilizational Innovation and Creativity

 

A civilization’s brilliance depends on mathematical innovation.

Natural challenges require scientific intervention; today’s scientists are not the best

in history.

Since the probability of being wrong is always present, we must accept multiple opinions.

Reducing incompetence reduces fraud.

On the Age of Extreme Specialization

 

I plan to revive multidisciplinary approaches—covering philosophy, mathematics, physics,

biophysics, statistics, and cosmology—after decades of extreme specialization.

My research attracts many visitors interested in mathematical physics, but philosophy of

the mathematical sky remains overlooked due to specialization barriers.

On Economic Development and Policy

 

Sustainable economic activity and growth are longstanding goals.

New ideas are needed; the World Bank might have better insights than the IMF.

Reforms are often poorly designed and executed.

On Western Creativity

 

The Western world has become less creative, and the future remains uncertain.

Extreme specialization and bureaucracy stifle innovation.

Pierre Fermat’s creative genius exemplifies boldness in exploring mathematical infinity.

On Knowledge Transmission

 

Visionaries pass on their ideas to posterity; those with great strength do not necessarily

do so.

by Adib Ben Jebara, March 23, 2025

 

About Kurt Godel

 

Cross-disciplinary intersections are often ignored but essential.

Without the philosophy of mathematics, many axioms and discoveries would not be possible.

Godel’s theorem indicates there are infinitely many axioms awaiting exploration.

On the Mathematical Nature of Life

 

Considering the axiom of choice and the life span of cells, we can model vital flow

mathematically.

On the Current Age of Specialization

 

I aim to catalyze a renaissance of multidisciplinary research—combining philosophy,

mathematics, physics, biophysics, statistics, and cosmology—after 60 years dominated

by extreme specialization.

While my work on mathematical particles physics garners interest, my philosophy of

the mathematical sky remains underappreciated.

Concluding Remarks

 

Sustainable development requires careful, innovative planning.

The Western world’s decline in creativity is evident, but history shows that bold,

creative thinkers like Fermat can challenge boundaries.
