Postulating the real 4th dimension to reconcile general and special relativity. Not time.

Indeed God does not play dice with the Universe. Einstein was plagued in his later years knowing that while Bose- Einstein statistics did comport and predict the nature of special relativity, he knew that a statistical model was not suited to explain the design of why special relativity existed.

Sometimes an artist knows when something is missing from the canvass. An artist knows its not complete. It is the torture that many have who traverse the traditional ideas of knowledge. It is clear in how he spent his life that he looked for that one piece that could reconcile special and general relativity. Jobbs was also plagued by his own soul. Alas- it is but missing something, something I can neither define nor explain but I will know it when I see it.

Perhaps Einstein and the pioneers of Quantum Physics never thought to revisit it. Even when H. Minkowski himself was a co-author on the original paper. Minkowski’s death predates the publishing of the English translation of the “Principle of Relativity” from the University of Calcutta where S.N Bose and M.N. Saha perhaps never thought to question the great Minkowski.

It is Minkowski who postulates the 4 dimensions. Which were assumed to be 3 cartesian coordinates and one unknown assumed to be time.

Let us re-understand what a dimension is to then postulate a new dimension that is more appropriate given the nature of the universe.
