Golden Ratio (1.62) as a dimensionless biological constant

Abstract

Regarding the significance of the Golden Ratio, 1.62, in phenomena as described by Boeyens and Thackeray in 2014, I also - in a 1998 publication - demonstrated its significant and unifying role in physical and biological reality. It was demonstrated that the Golden Ratio is an inherent, dimensionless biological constant composing the dimensional physical constants of physics. In that article, it was also shown that this biological constant reflects a regenerative, adaptive or accommodating process operating through all scales of reality, from the sub-quantum, through the biological, to the cosmological level of organisation, and in so doing, giving a fractal unity to such realities, uniting quantum reality with cosmological reality, hence quantum reality with the reality of general relativity. Through a simple mathematical analysis, it was also found and noted that this dimensionless biological constant denotes a near infinitesimal, regenerative feature of space-time. Also described was how the dimensionless biological constant defined reality or space-time as having a vortical or spiral morphology. In 1949, the mathematician Kurt Godel, in solving in a new way the differential field equations from general relativity, showed the universe as having a spiral or vortical space-time geometry through the rotation of matter.
