Try and figure out what this mean, maybe there's some clue there-
Quote:
eternity is neither infinitely back from the present moment nor infinitely ahead from the present moment, eternity is contained in atemporal space, it meaning in this present moment.


I am having a headache just trying to understand what that means.


Eternity starts with 0+1+1+....infinity. You can't infinitely count back to the past because you reach to zero at some point.The start. Each moment of progression is a moment in eternity because even eternity plays out moment by moment.

Well, well...do i still need to tell u about the beginning?

Beginning > The point in time or space at which something starts.

But time doesn't exist so we cannot exclusively define beginning.

Can we have an end without a beginning?
d'oh! d'oh!

Another question,does space have a beginning?


Your question again falls into the above trap.

And thinking about it, it was the same trap that led to the 'Tychonic system' which was Tycho Brahe's attempt to reconcile religion and science in the early days of the Scientific revolution.

He was sure that Man was 'the' center of the universe, but natural science, had shown that the earth wasn't the center of the universe, even in terms of 'attention'.

Tycho had to cling on the idea that the sun and moon moved around the earth, while the other planets revolved around the sun.

But now we can modify the Tychonic system as:

Man, is the Unifier of the perception to ultimate being, and is thus, at 'the' center of the universe.


I think we need to define exclusively what we understood by the term "existence".
Does existence refer to availability or being?

@Impunity, existence has to be an inclusive of both availability, and being.

For if, there's availability, then the available must be.

And so must being imply availability.

How is that different from being?

Hypnosis - Basically boils down to programming the brain to bypass the mind.

It is not different. It includes being in other forms.

The brain is a tool of the mind. The mind cannot be bypassed.

Hypnosis is 'mind control' by the introduction of concepts through stealth. And is a characteristic of a Master - Slave relationship and is not mutual, or loving.

So availability is all inclusive 'being' is different.

That's why I don't like hypnosis,its not based on good. The conscious mind is bypassed not the unconscious mind. When you say stealth thats what I mean by bypassing,concepts and information the brain is aware is receiving but the conscious mind is not.Although I think hypnosis can't make someone do what they don't want.

Wow!

Hold on Tycho.

When did we put man in the centre?

Here is simple, 'scientific' proof that man is not the center.

The good book says "By their fruits (creations) ye shall know them."

If man wanted to be the centre, she would have created a two dimensional Universe as the primary reality.

A four dimensional Universe has infinite centres.

In other words, every point in/on a closed Universe, one with light as the finite limiter, is the 'center.'

In (still) other words: "as long as you can't see any edge, you are in the centre.

So is everyone and everything else.

But that is not what you meant, was it?

@Wakanyugi, which good book have you been reading?

Sit down and read the book of Revelation, and do some critical thinking, and you'll find my words are most solidly defended.

Go to Genesis, and you'll find Man as the perceptual center.

Everything you say, and do, must begin with subjectivity.

Go back to the history of science, and there you'll Find Man God on the throne.

Amri imetoka wapi? Your role is not granting permission, it is being to the ultimate.
