Introduction
What is UP theory and why is it necessary?
A New Foundation For Science, Philosophy, and Religion
Modern science lacks a solid foundation, as does philosophy and religion.
Our model of reality is based on assumptions, and sometimes even paradoxes.
The world is in crisis because the modern worldview is founded on incorrect premises.
The framework of concepts we use to think with is flawed, and does not represent the facts of reality.
Even the greatest intellects of the era have been unable to define essential terms properly, such as "logic", "consciousness", "mind", or "morality". Not because they lacked intelligence, but because they were using the tools of thought incorrectly.
Despite incalculable resources being thrown at theoretical physics over the last 300 years,
Physicists still cannot define what "matter" is.
Despite millions of man-years being spent on philosophy and religious study over the last 2000 years,
Religions still cannot define "morality". Philosophers still cannot explain what "logic" is.
UP theory provides "the key which unlocks the universe".
It can define all these key concepts objectively, and in simple, intuitive terms.
And once they are defined properly, many difficult questions about the universe can be answered quite easily.
UP theory makes the universe understandable.
Unlike much of modern science, it actually explains WHY things are the way they are, not just how they work.
- The universe is fully logical and understandable by any rational person.
- Reality is literally "made of logic". It is the construct of a mind, and all minds operate on logic.
- The machinery driving the universe is so simple, a child could understand it.
TMM is potentially the most important book of the modern age. Everyone should read it, so I've made it free to download.
The Simplest Conceivable Theory of Everything
UP theory is the most parsimonious explanation of reality.
The parsimony of nature is well known. It is the most efficient machine ever devised.
The simplest answer is usually the right one.
It seems the reason this TOE has not been found until now is because it's too simple for the sophisticated, academic mind to grasp.
Everyone is looking for complex answers, but the "modern mind" literally does not understand the first and simplest thing about reality: duality.
Most people do not even understand the concepts of "one" and "two". This isn't hyperbole.
People do not understand even the simplest things.
This has resulted in a society filled with - really bad ideas.
If you would like to:
- Free yourself of bad ideas.
- Gain a solid grip on the concepts that underly thought itself.
- Understand the underlying structure of the universe.
- Understand yourself.
- Become more discerning, more intellectually independent and free.
- Escape "the matrix", and deprogram yourself from the cult of modern society.
Then, "The Mindlike Machine" is the book for you.

Diagram of the UP Structure
This diagram shows the ten fundamental ontological categories from which the whole of reality is created.
The UP is a map of the most fundamental concepts that exist, and how they are derived. It is a universal, objective system of categorisation and shows the underlying structure of all things.
These are very broad, generalised "super concepts" or "archetypes", each of which contain a wide range of related ideas. By determining which category a concept fits in, we can define it objectively and clearly, and we can determine it's relationship to all other concepts.
I'm fairly certain this is the original and correct Philosopher's Stone, as it is so effective at providing answers. For a full explanation of why I think this is the case, please read TMM or DE.
The UP appears to be a rediscovery of "Alchemy", from first principles.
It unifies science, religion, and philosophy into a single consistent whole.
I suspect The UP was once the unified science and religion which enabled the long-lost Golden Age, and if the world can grasp its principles again, a new Golden Age may emerge.
