Extraphysical Mechanics Theory

A branch of speculative physics or metaphysics that posits mechanisms and interactions in dimensions, realms, or substances beyond the conventional physical universe (matter and energy). It asks: What are the "mechanics" of a soul? How does consciousness interact with a proposed "astral plane"? It seeks to extend the concept of mechanics—causal, structured interaction—into realms physics currently doesn't acknowledge, imagining the engineering of the transcendent.

Example: "The Extraphysical Mechanics Theory proposed that consciousness is a state of a 'psychon field' that permeates higher compactified dimensions. Near-death experiences occur when the brain's filter weakens, allowing the localized psychon knot (the soul) to partially perceive this extraphysical domain. It was a draft schematic for the hardware of the afterlife."

Extraphysical Theory

The general conceptual framework that posits the existence of realities, substances, or causations fundamentally beyond the physical universe as described by modern science. It's the philosophical or theological assertion that there is "more," without necessarily detailing the machinery. It sets the stage for extraphysical mechanics to later fill in the details.

Example: "Plato's Theory of Forms is a classic Extraphysical Theory. It asserts that beyond our physical world of shadows is a realm of perfect, immutable Ideas. It doesn't provide the mechanics of how a physical apple 'participates' in the Form of Apple-ness; it just establishes the two-tiered reality as a foundational principle."

Extraphysical Hypothesis

A specific type of metaphysical hypothesis that posits the existence of substances, dimensions, or causations that are literally outside or in addition to the known physical universe (matter, energy, spacetime). It goes beyond questioning the nature of the physical to propose more stuff of a completely different kind. Concepts like the astral plane, a non-material soul substance, or a spirit realm are extraphysical hypotheses—they suggest expanding the inventory of reality, not just reinterpreting the inventory we already have.

Example: "The psychic's description of an 'aura' as a colored energy field made of 'ectoplasm' that exists in a 'higher dimension' was an Extraphysical Hypothesis. She wasn't just reinterpreting my mood (a physical brain state); she was claiming to detect a whole new category of thing attached to me, composed of non-physical stuff that required a sixth sense to perceive. It was an add-on to standard reality, not a commentary on it."
