The source is an excerpt from Walter Russell's "A New Concept of the Universe," which outlines his cosmology, challenging conventional scientific theories about matter, energy, and light. Russell argues that the universe operates on a principle of polarity, where opposing forces of compression and expansion continually interact to create the illusion of matter and motion. He proposes a two-way universe, contrasting with the then-prevailing model of an expanding universe destined for a "heat death." Russell's cosmology draws heavily on the idea of thought-waves as the driving force of creation, connecting his concepts to spiritual and metaphysical ideas. He criticizes traditional scientific methods that focus on observable effects rather than seeking the underlying causes and proposes a revolutionary new concept of matter as a state of motion rather than a substance. The text further explores Russell's ideas on the mechanics of the universe, including the role of magnetic poles, gravitation, and radiation, and he offers alternative perspectives on established scientific laws and theories.
