Energy and mass are equivalent is a better use of the term although in value based systems where we equate the energy concerns with mass they are equal, mass and energy are not precisely the same thing as such, but they are precisely the same thing if we take all energy concerns within the system, thus matter is only different from energy in that it has a rest mass or a relativistic mass although that term is generally confusing.

Consider the energy as a surface tension of the Universe, that is the tension of moment "now" (of phase border history/future) . Such tension keeps constant running of time .... To be precise: stress, tension of space at the time of "now" that keeping space smooth, too ... I see Universe is as a growing 4-D drop of something (let's say, antihydrogen), we live on its 3-D surface and the outside is non-condensed "future" ... surface tension keeps such drop round and smooth....

Aye that's not a bad way of looking at it, thanks for the analogy.

You might be the first to truly be able to communicate with Cerverny. I hope so as he also has an interesting idea about describing the development of this phase-space with an crystalline analogy that I'd like to hear explained in a way the rest of us could grasp.

If you manage that then take a crack at Socratus and please explain what all the constants refer to.
