One of the greatest mysteries of science is the source of the sun's renewing energy.
?
At the present rate of solar radiation, the sun should have burned out long ago.?
What keeps its fires burning? What is it that generates heat in the sun to keep it from cooling?
?
One theory is that its contraction generates it, for contraction supposedly heats.?
But that is not the answer, for contraction does not heat nor generate. Contraction is possible only as a result of generation, not as its cause.
Generation must precede contraction. It does not follow it.
Heat follows as a result of contraction. Heat radiates. Radiation is the opposite of generation, and opposites act in opposite ways.?
Radiation expands and the resultant expansion cools; while generation contracts and the resultant contraction heats.
?Here again is the father-mother principle manifesting its law of equal, opposite and sequential interchange.
The cold of expanded space generates the sun’s heat by compressing large volume into smaller volume.
The high pressure of incandescence is born from the low pressure of vacuous blackness, in accordance with the law of rhythmic balanced interchange between all pairs of father-mother opposites. [Walter Russell, The Secret of Light, pages 187-188]
