Abstract
This paper formulates a coherent theory concerning how relativistic phenomena occur in their interconnection in a feedback loop, which no other theory has been able to achieve. This is achieved by tracing back concepts that Newton held but suppressed, when he developed his mechanics in his Principia. Although Newtonian mechanics was developed on the premise that everything happens within a closed system, Newton in the General Scholium at the end of Book III, pointed out that the answer lies in an open system, where ?a certain most subtle spirit? participates and directs all interactions from motion of bodies, to motion of light, to how the human brain operates. That is to say that all interactions occur in open systems. We have identified this ?most subtle spirit? as the ?universal governing field? (or governing field for short) which is non-empirical, and that no empirical interaction in this universe can occur without exchange of energy between the empirical interactants and the governing field. By analyzing the energy momentum equation, we have demonstrated that everything empirical has a non-empirical substratum, which is identified as Spinoza?s primitive substance, and it is this that binds everything in the universe to the governing field and through it to one another. By recognizing the Pythagorean character of the energy-momentum equation, we have developed the ?Algorithm of Motion?, which is applicable to all velocities 0
