The Four Dimensional Space-Time Continuum

Like Capra's "Tao of Physics", Gary Zukav's " Dancing Wu Li Masters" shook the philosophic world.
It is called the overview of the New Physics. The Old Physics was Newtonian Physics which maintained that Space and Time are separate.
Einstein differed from Newton. Space and Time are not separate, they are one whole called Space-Time.
Old classical Physics of Newton gave way to the New Physics, that is Quantum Physics. De Broglie's Matter_Wave Hypothesis postulated that Matter exists as both Particle and Wave. The fourth Dimension of Time was added to the three dimesions of Space, that is length, breadth and thickness.
Hermann Minnowski, the maths teacher of Einstein, postulated the theory of the Four Dimensional Space-Time Continuum. We live, breathe and exist in the four dimensional Space-Time Continuum, which is an Eternal Now.

This recent finding of the New Physics is the corroboration of Eastern Philosophies, which maintained that the Unified Field of Consciousness is the only Reality and that the Universe is a Universe of appearance.
