Text: "The fundamental conception of the Universe is force manifesting itself in rhythmical relations. "This definition is exhaustive, including both thought and extension, matter and mind. The law for the one is the law for the other. The distinction between them is simply relative, i.e., quantitative, not qualitative. "The rhythmic relations in which force acts are everywhere, under all conditions, and at all times, the same. They are found experimentally to be universally expressible by the mathematical relations of thirds. "These threefold relations may be expressed with regard to their results as, I. Assimilative II. Individualizing III. Dominant or Resultant "From these three actions are derived the three fundamental LAWS OF BEING: I. Law of Assimilation: every individualized object assimilates itself to all other objects. II. Law of Individualization: every such object tends to assimilate all other objects to itself. III. Law of the Dominant: every such object is such by virtue of the higher or dominant force which controls these two tendencies.
