because it has an information density which exceeds some critical

threshold essential for exhibiting living properties.

(3) The body-centered tetrahedron (see Figure 10.15) can be viewed as

the cosmic code or a sign for our Universe. It stands for our Universe

iconically, indexically, and symbolically, mediated by a cosmic lan-

guage (called the “cosmolanguage”) whose material and mental

manifestations having been identifiable with cell language (and asso-

ciated particle languages) and human language, respectively.

(4) The semiotic theory of the Universe presented in this book (see

Section 10.18.2) is built on earlier works (embodied in the Shillongator

described in Figure 10.16) and on Conclusions (1) and (2) above and

is named the Tarragonator (see Figure 10.29) to indicate the fact that

the formulation of the theory began with the three lectures that I gave

at the Rovira i Virgili University in Tarragona in 2003 [279].

(5) The Tarragonator is a Theory of Everything (TOE) that encompasses

superstring theory, quantum mechanics, special relativity theory, the-

ory of biological evolution, the conformon theory, the cell language

theory, the anthropic principle, and a theory of consciousness — all

integrated into a coherent whole based on the combination of Peircean

semiotics and the topological principle of the Möbius band described

in [25, p. 195].

(6) Just as N. Bohr derived the philosophy of complementarity based on

quantum physics, S. Ji derived the philosophy of complementarism

(Sections 10.1 and 10.2) based on molecular biology and cell

biology. It was Douglas Sayer Ji, in his senior research paper sub-

mitted in 1996 to Professor Bruce Wilshire, a phenomenologist at the

Department of Philosophy at Rutgers, who first glimpsed the comple-

mentary relation between Sungchul Ji’s complementarism and

Maurice Merleau-Ponty’s phenomenological ontology, which seems

supported by the data presented in in Table 11.2.

(7) If the content of Table 11.1 is valid, it may be concluded that physics,

biology, and philosophy are not separate sciences but one, ruled by

the principle of complementarity as envisioned by N. Bohr almost a

century ago [44–47]. Going one step further, it may be suggested

that physics, biology, and philosophy are irreducibly triadic thus

obeying the principle of ITR as schematically shown in Figure 11.1.
