The Metaphysics of Quantum Fields

The source material explores the profound metaphysical ramifications of Quantum Field Theory (QFT), shifting the foundation of reality away from classical materialism. According to QFT, the universe is fundamentally composed not of tiny solid pieces, but of omnipresent, dynamic fields, where known subatomic particles are instead described as temporary, localized vibrations or excitations. This framework promotes the idea that potentiality is primary over actuality and redefines existence as a continuous process or activity, moving away from thinking of reality as a collection of static "nouns." The text confirms that modern physics identifies seventeen fundamental fields in the Standard Model, stressing that these entities are deeply interconnected through mathematical symmetries rather than existing independently. Ultimately, this perspective replaces the image of a mechanical, material universe with a holistic, interdependent symphony where all observable matter emerges from a pervasive ground of potentiality.

If we go back to creation we will discover that matter is not primary. Fields (and possibly consciousness) are primary.
