Examination of what must happen when resonance values are reduced through subdivision to values too small and fast to relate to our normal reality led to the development of the concept of the Infinitesimal Substrate.

It was at first good enough to refer to information being compressed past the relevance of ordinary space as being pushed into an ``extra dimensional" condition without explaining what that condition was or how it related to the reality that it had just left. There was the observation that it would return to the Void and thus make full circle of creation. But many issues arose that insisted on an explanation that could relate to the vast history of consciousness and physical experiment.

For explanation's purpose we can say that when informational derivative resonance values are compressed beyond a certain length, say  that they have moved into a realm of values that exist throughout the universe as a substrate of creation.

In other sections you will find a reference to Causal Levels and Causal Layers, both of which mean that these values are the foundation for whole systems of creation. In SCIET Theory the term levels refers to Primary Resonance Values, and  is reserved for material creation such as the surface of a proton, while layers is used to discuss the same phenomenon as it occurs from Derivative Resonance Values.

Derivative Resonance Values and Primary Resonance Values both create the Infinitesimal Substrate as both systems of values return to the Void through the process of Resonant Compression.

The relationship of the infinitesimal substrate to ordinary physical reality based on the Primary Resonance Values is profound. It is the source of the gravitational effect because it exists at the threshold of unity with all of creation, the same value that underlies the resonance of all things with one another. The IS underlies all memory and consciousness throughout the Universe and enables the immediate connection between minds at distant points in space. It is where our consciousness resides when the body is left behind and it is from where each consciousness emerges into a new body at the start of life.

The Infinitesimal Substrate may, by our measure, seem to be a very narrow slice of reality, but within its own existence it is just as real as our own experience tells us this one is. Consider that the same range of values exists in relationship as we perceive in material reality and that they also continue to evolve in their relationships.

The values that compose the Infinitesimal Substrate are as much a part of space as any other. If you think of a cubic matrix and imagine a new subdivision that is magnitudes smaller, say to take the entire range that exists within the matrix and then say it is contained within the smallest cubic subdivision of itself, those measures, no matter how small, are just as much a part of the whole matrix, and so it is with the Infinitesimal Substrate's values.
