The composition of the Eternal Consonance

Standard particle physics teaches that every substance is built from smaller parts. Water is made of molecules, molecules of atoms, and atoms of quarks. RSI holds that this habit of thought does not apply to the Eternal Consonance (EC). Asking what particles make up the EC is, in the theory's words, an ontological error.

The EC is not a dust or a gas of spheres. It is a continuous, irreducible elastic continuum: one unbroken scalar field (a field described by a single value at each point). It is the ontological basement of reality.

In RSI, matter is a verb rather than a noun. A particle is not a thing sitting in empty space. It is a localized topological knot, a structural inversion happening to the EC. The universe holds exactly one physical substance. Light, matter, gravity, and charge are all mechanical, fluid-dynamic behaviors of that one substrate. Five intrinsic mechanical properties define it.
