incommensurability
of the phenomena of mechanical motion with the 
phenomena of life. The phenomena of life cannot be expressed in formulae of 
mechanical energy, nor in heat calories or power units. And the phenomenon of life 
cannot be created by artificial physico-chemical means. 
If we take each individual life as a four-dimensional circle, this will explain to us 
why each circle inevitably disappears from our space. This happens because a 
circle 
inevitably ends at the point where it had begun. And so the 'life' of an individual being, 
having begun at birth, must end at death, which is the return to the starting point. But 
during its passage through our space, the circle emits certain lines which, by 
connecting with others, produce new circles. 
Of course, in reality all this happens quite differently; nothing is born and nothing 
dies; but this is how it appears to us, because we only see the sections of things. 
Actually, 
the circle of life
is only a section of 
something,
and this 
something 
undoubtedly exists before birth, i.e. before the appearance of the circle in our space, 
and continues to exist after death, i.e. after the disappearance of the circle from our 
field of vision. 
For our observation
life phenomena
are very similar to 
phenomena of motion,
as 
they appear to a two-dimensional being; therefore they may be 'motion in the fourth 
dimension'. 
We have seen that the two-dimensional being will regard as movements of bodies 
the three-dimensional properties of motionless solids; and as 
phenomena of life
the 
actual movements of bodies proceeding in a higher space. 
In other words, motion which 
remains
motion in a higher space appears to a lower 
being as a phenomenon of life, and motion which 
disappears
in higher space, 
becoming a 
property
of a motionless body, appears to it as mechanical motion. 
The incommensurability for us of phenomena of life and phenomena of 'motion' is 
exactly the same as the incommensurability for a two-dimensional being in his world 
of the two kinds of motion, of which only one is real and the other illusory. 
Hinton speaks of this 
(The Fourth Dimension): 
There is something in life not included in our conceptions of mechanical movement. 
Is this something a four-dimensional movement? 


If we look at it from the broadest point of view, there is something striking in the 
fact that where life comes in there arises an entirely different set of phenomena to 
those of the inorganic world.* 
Starting from this, it is possible to presume that those phenomena which we call 
phenomena of life
are motion in higher space. Phenomena which we call mechanical 
motion are 
phenomena of life
in a space lower than ours, whereas in a higher space they 
are simply properties of motionless bodies. This means that if we take three kinds of 
existence - two-dimensional, ours and a higher one, it will prove that the 'motion' 
observed by two-dimensional beings in two-dimensional space is 
for us
the property of 
motionless bodies; 
'life' which is observed in two-dimensional space, is motion as observed by us in our 
space. And further - movements in three-dimensional space, i.e. all our mechanical 
movements and manifestations of physical and chemical forces, such as light, sound, 
heat and so on, are only our sensations of some properties of four-dimensional bodies
unknowable for us; and our 'phenomena of life' are movements of bodies of a higher 
space which appear to us as birth, growth and life of living beings. If we presume a 
space not of four but of five dimensions, then in it 'phenomena of life' will probably 
prove to be properties of
