The beauty of evolutionary biology is that unlike physics, where you have to take a ton of data to hope that the one model you've got really works, evolution allows you to pull together pieces from hundreds of different areas of search to all support the same theory.
And that is true in Bergson's concept of the pulsations of matter, which then is like the 1926 - 1927 quantum physics, and not like the earlier Niels Bohr model of quantum physics where the pulsations are perfectly distinct, going from one electron shell to the other without passing through the intervening space.
Within physics complementary models are used in the domain of the unobservably small, whose characteristics seem to be radically unlike those of everyday objects; the electron can not be adequately visualized or consistently described by familiar analogies.
«When the physical model of wave - motion in a material medium had to be abandoned in physics», writes Mary Hesse, «it left its traces in the kind of mathematics which was used, for this was still a mathematical language derived from the wave equations of fluid motion, and so, for the mathematician, it carried some of the imaginative associations of the original physical picture.»
I now wish to look more specifically at the role of complementary models in twentieth century physics, and then at some possible parallels in religious thought.
After describing in some detail the principle of complementarity in physics, Austin suggests that images of God as Father and as Judge are complementary models used to interpret individual and corporate experience.24 The prophet Amos, he points out, interpreted events in Israel's history primarily in terms of God's judgment, while Hosea understood events in terms of God's forgiveness.
I can see a certain parallel with the situation in atomic physics: the use of two models which can not be combined, along with recognition of the limitations of all models and the inadequacy of literalism.
However, the use of personal and impersonal models within the Hindu tradition, or within the Christian tradition, does seem to present some interesting parallels with complementarity in physics, which we must now examine further.
I do not see here quite the kind of mutual exclusiveness that exists between particles and waves, which prevents the development of a single compromise model in quantum physics.
Whitehead makes a point of taking a concept from biology to understand physics instead of interpreting biological organisms from models developed in physics.
Much of the reason for the huge decade - long upgrade to the CERN particle - accelerator facility in Geneva - creating the «Large Hadron Collider» (LHC)- was the prospect of finding evidence for one of the keystones in the theoretical edifice that is the «Standard Model» of particle physics, the «Higgs boson.»

Nevertheless, as we have seen, there is a small but growing number of scientists, both in physics and biology, who operate with a relational model, who see some correspondence between the constructs of the mind and reality itself, however inexact, and who also see the possibility of restoring the experience of meaning if the non-human natural world is perceived as dynamic, creative, full of life and purpose, whom process thinkers have engaged in conversation; together they have attempted to explore new visions of reality better suited for adaptation to the urgent needs of the contemporary world.
