@ChessMaster, I have come. @Wakanyugi, can you please pose your question again?
@All, you are most welcome!

What is all this about? LIFE IS SO GOOD

This is a conversation about how one can live well.
Living well, I posit, comprises of 3 pillars: Science, mutuallism, and identity.
Finally, it is an inquiry into our ideas about the origins, and purpose of the universe.

I saw a talk by nassim harrim,and he said that the everything from suns,planets and atoms are black holes in the center. Uncertainty is certain.Let go

@Tycho: I want proof that time and space exist. And I want it here and now! Energy is an indirectly perceived quantity in many forms. Energy can neither be created nor destroyed. Therefore there cannot be 'no energy'. Therefore, all is energy. Spacetime is an indirectly observed quantity, for it 'expands'. Therefore, spacetime is a form of energy. Therefore it exists.

If there is being, then there must be an indestructible 'core' that can expand, only up to where the forces holding being together have grown weak enough to warrant the creation of new energy systems. That is, being creates new systems to facilitate being. Now, the essence of being, can only be in a black hole. Consider the esoteric meaning of black: does it ring a bell?

@Tycho, Tycho Tycho! Where do I start my brother? tycho wrote: Spacetime is an indirectly observed quantity, for it 'expands'. Does it? Or does spacetime only seem to expand? Is it not Einstein who told us that time is relative? Space is a function of time, therefore it must be relative too. You agree? How can something relative (meaning subject to the state of the observer) be a definite reality? After all if spacetime is/are subject to the observer, it means there are as many spacetimes as there are observers. tycho wrote: Therefore, all is energy. Does that include time and space - are these energy too? So does this mean energy is a malleable quantity subject to change as spacetime is/are? Anyway I know you are fed up with my incessant questions. So here is what I'll do. Sometime tomorrow - or the day after - I'll provide my counter proof (space and time are not real) and we can take it from there. Deal? "The opposite of a correct statement is a false statement. But the opposite of a profound truth may well be another profound truth." (Niels Bohr)

Gravitation is one expression of energy holding itself together. That is, being.

That is, being creates new systems to facilitate being.
Now, the essence of being, can only be in a black hole. @Tycho and Chessmaster. I can't claim to understand what you guys are talking about here. By I must tell you, my 'Bravo Sierra' antennae is ringing like mad. So I have to comment. Let us start from the assumption that Einstein was right (he could have been wrong, but I am still waiting for proof). I believe Einstein proved, in his theory of gravitation, that gravity is nothing but the effect of the curvature of space-time in the presence of large masses. In other words Gravity exists only in the same way that a shadow exists when the sun shines. Now, a black hole is nothing but such space-time curvature taken to the ultimate - from a curve to a full circle - from linear time to zero time. By this explanation a black hole is actually not a hole but a closed sphere, a singularity, from which very little or nothing can escape. So what is all this about being and how it creates new systems? Which systems? "The opposite of a correct statement is a false statement. But the opposite of a profound truth may well be another profound truth." (Niels Bohr)

@Wakanyugi, 'Deal'. But pass by to get answers to the questions you have asked so far. Tomorrow morning.

@Wakanyugi, let us start by defining 'perception', and 'relativity'.
Perception, is about identifying, and organization of sensory information. It must involve energy transactions which involve the distal object and the perceiver.
That is, perception must involve the correspondence of energy states between the perceiver and the perceived. This, is the meaning of 'relativity'.
Perception, therefore means, a correspondence of relative energy states or levels. Such correspondence is proof of existence of both the perceiver, and perceived.
Therefore, we begin by affirming Descartes: 'I perceive, therefore, I am, and it is'. An observation in the subject becomes real by the correspondence of energy relations - Leibniz.
So if Einstein affirms relativity, then he affirms that spacetime is a part of existing energy relations. Otherwise, spacetime couldn't be perceived.
Therefore spacetime is an energy state in itself. That is why, it can curve.
In the same way, the perception that it expands, becomes a fact that it indeed expands!
So, yes, spacetime is energy. And it appears 'malleable' due to changes in relativity.
Now, if perception is about the relativity of energy states, it follows that being, is a system of energy relations.
When energy relations are changed, that is when an energy system is altered, there must be created a new system of being that corresponds to the new energy states because energy cannot be destroyed.
So, a black hole, is the basic energy system for any instance of energy relations.
