Abstract: Einstein's 1905 paper introduced the Special Theory of Relativity by postulating c = L/T = constant. This paper re-examines the foundational assumptions from the Panvitalistic Theory (PVT) perspective. We show that Einstein treated velocity as a one-dimensional linear quantity, thereby necessitating the introduction of a second, external time parameter. In the PVT, v = L/T is recognized as an inherently two-dimensional areal quantity, where T is internal angular curvature. Replacing the postulate c = L/T = constant > 0 with the geometrically derived axiom π = T /L = constant > 0 eliminates the need for external time. The Lorentz transformation is revealed as a mathematical projection artifact of the deeper 6D areal geometry onto a 4D spacetime with external time. The central insight of special relativity the shortest path from A to B is a straight line is preserved, but now grounded in a consistent geometric ontology without external time.
