Abstract
Two limiting boundaries exist in the domain of physics: the prime task of fundamental physics is to understand the objects, laws, or whatever is the basis of all observed phenomena. The other is the existence of a rhythm and pattern between the phenomena of nature (not apparent to eye, but to the conscious mind of analyzer). Also the development of scientific techniques has increased our ability of detailed observation and so the complexity of formalism. Consequently the concept of basic conditions and the character of physical laws as the fundamental principles of physics should be defined. It should be thought that, how someone can find a formalism to understand the phenomena or/and conduct an experiment. What do the concepts mean? What are the phenomena and under what conditions they exist or could be considered? What are the correspondence principles of mind and phenomena as the phenomena is constructed of two components existence and appearance, where only one of them can be measured? Since the cause of connection or/and interaction of both the observer and phenomena is space, its nature and related functions (equations) and formalisms should be considered. However, suppose we were able to find a theory which explains all observed (or existing) phenomena but, what are the basic processes through which, one can relate a behavior and character to the essential concept of a phenomena? There should be a conscious mind to be able to speculate the relation between basic conditions, physical parameters and even physical principles.
