Light in the Marias Theory

In classical physics, light is typically described either as a wave (in the electromagnetic theory of Maxwell) or as a stream of particles (photons, in quantum mechanics). General Relativity incorporates light into its framework by assuming massless photons that travel along geodesics in a curved spacetime. However, these interpretations leave unresolved the true nature and physical properties of light itself.

In the Marias Theory, light is redefined as a fundamental vibrational structure – not a massless point particle, nor an abstract wave, but a coherent oscillation of the universal substance. Everything in the universe, from matter to force, emerges from the vibrational behavior of light. This includes:

• Radiating light: free, propagating photons.
• Condensed light: trapped photons forming particles with mass.

Localized Light and Mass

When a photon is localized and its vibrational mode becomes stationary in space, it forms the basis of mass. This localized vibration gives rise to particles such as electrons and protons, whose mass is a direct result of the energy trapped in these coherent photonic oscillations.

Photon-Photon Interaction and Gravity

Contrary to the assumption of non-interacting photons in vacuum, the Marias Theory asserts that photons have an extremely small but non-zero mass. This means they exert gravitational forces on each other. When beams of light pass near massive bodies, their path changes not because of space curvature, but due to the real attraction between light and mass – and between light and light.

Light is the Substance of Reality

Everything that exists is made of light in various vibrational forms. The Marias Theory postulates that:

• Mass = localized vibration of light (see mass)
• Energy = form of vibration
• Forces = phase interactions between oscillations
• Gravity = weak attraction between coherent low-frequency oscillations

Variable Speed of Light

In contrast to the Einsteinian constant speed of light, the Marias Theory proposes that the speed of light depends on local conditions, especially gravitational influence. The local speed of light (c_local) can vary based on nearby masses, and is not universal. This interpretation removes the need to bend space or time to explain relativistic phenomena.

Key Concepts

To understand light in the Marias framework, it is essential to understand:

• Photon: the basic quantum of light
• Polarization: orientation of vibrational modes
• Electromagnetism: result of polarized oscillation interference

This vision of light leads to a new unified physics that explains both microscopic and cosmic phenomena through a single vibrational paradigm.
