Swalley, D. A.: A Non-Dual Ontological Reinterpretation of General Relativity and Quantum Theory: 1. Eliminating Select Metaphysical Assumptions

We propose a parsimonious non-dual ontological framework in which the observable universe emerges as the continuous, simultaneous radiation and reabsorption of distinction from an undifferentiated pri- mordial ground state. This ground state is defined solely by its existence; no properties, time, location, or internal structure are attributed to it. All established physical laws — including the Einstein field equations, quantum field theory, and black-hole thermodynamics — remain mathematically
