The Universe's Biggest Paradoxes

[@RoySATX]

I just turned 60 a few days ago. Nothing went the way I planned in my life, I barely recognize the world I find myself in. Everyone I knew in my life has gone and with them went all shared experiences. No one remembers anything with me anymore, I remanence by myself of reminiscing with others. I don't mind being forgotten, I expected that, I didn't plan on being left alone so soon with so much left to remember. The funny thing is, I could reasonably live another forty years, adding more memories and being remembered even less! Life; What a trip! To my friends and family, my past lovers and lost cohorts, you made it all worthwhile, your memories still bring a smile. You lit the stars and filled my world with song. I'll keep dancing to your melody, carrying you along. And if I am very lucky, the dancefloor won't be empty.

[@HansPetterBekeng]

I remember when I was a teenager I used to imagine all my friends at that point coming to my funeral when I got old and died, and how they would fill up the little chapel and perhaps they had to use the big chapel even. It's a strange thing, because it didn't even occur to me then that I could outlive them all. Here's the thing: As you say, you may have 40 years left, and that means you can choose to do it all over. Take a new education, get a new profession, new friends... It will of course be much harder at your age, but it's realistically possible. I know of a person who started to learn how to play the violin at 74 years old. I also have a friend at 55 who've been wanting to learn how to play the violin all his life, and who know the basics and everything, and for 10+ years I've been showing him how good that 74 years old were at 79, and tried to tell him that he could be just as good in 4 years - if he just actually commits to learning the damn fiddle. Gene Roddenberry - the man behind Star Trek - was a cop for the most of his adult and professional life. Until he was 50 years old, when they finally accepted Star Trek, and the rest is history. As the social commentary that Star Trek really is, it comes from all the crap Mister Roddenberry watched and saw us humans do to each other, as a police officer for several decades. He had the need to tell the world, and used different alien species as substitute for human ethnicities, and thus he could get away with much more controversial stories.Star Trek has also always been on the bleeding edge of progressivity, with having the first black female star in a TV-show and such, and so many thing, from your mobile phone to the doors opening automatically on your local store, comes directly from Star Trek. The engeineers inventing that stuff watched Star Trek and wanted that world. The guy making the very first Palm Pilot openly admitted it was directly inspired by the TriCorder in Star Trek. Which, btw, was a device we all dreamt of growing up, and thought of as so futuristic, but if you look at any of the old Star Trek series and the TriCorders, they look really old, bulky and crap. As opposed to mobile phones of today. Or, you can go all Camus, and ask yourself why you don't kill yourself right now. Albert Camus thought the only actual philosophical question in life was exactly that, why don't I kill myself right now. Because there aren't really any reasons at all, he thought, so that renedered all other questions irrelevant because you ask that one question, and then kill yourself.

You know, today I thought I was dead. As I was driving to a job interview. A car jumped lanes and almost hit me. If it did, it was going to be head-on. But it didn't and I just ended up driving and going to my interview. I get there, I sit down with the person who was interviewing me. I went through the whole interview, and it felt good. I had a great conversation. After the interview, I walked out of the building and felt good enough to go for a walk. As I was walking, I noticed that I was so calm, relaxed, and feeling carefree. And is reflected in the way I spoke in today's interview. It dawned on me that everything around me also looked colorful. The lights were bright in the mall I was in, and the rain that was pouring outside turned to sunlight. Euphoric bliss is what I associated myself with at that moment. Because deep down, I was joyful. So joyful I wanted to cry because I couldn't believe how real life is sometimes. Yet content with just fading, leaving completely and it didn't feel forced. I felt "ready" because, at that moment, I didn't have fear. Did the car actually hit me? The question dawned on me. I noticed a ripply effect on my mood and the environment around me. The day changed after that car almost hit me. In a way, it was the perfect day. I had a great interview, I walked around in the beautiful sunlight, saw a movie, got groceries, and listened to my favorite music. In the end, I don't think I am dead. I just came close to death. And everything afterwards, well looked incredible because you really don't know when everything ends. But when it does end, I hope it takes me back to that same feeling I felt after the near-death experience. Back to Euphoric Bliss...

2:30 we may need to reevaluate what perception is in this instance, as nothing in the universe exists separately from everything else, so there will always be something nearby to "experience" the "sound" of a tree falling.

Hopes, Dreams, Love, Promises & Devotion, are just as real as Dispair, Hate, Remorse & Fear. Emotions have power over us because we are animals.

Your decisions led you to your current state of affairs & that folks, is the cold, hard truth of reality.

[@jimmygravitt1048]

This is exactly what Descarte was talking about when he said "I think, therefore I am." It was not some mystical BS about how his mind creates reality. It was the simple fact, LITERALLY, the ONLY thing we can be ABSOLUTELY, 100% without a doubt certain of is the fact that if we are thinking, we exist. It is entirely possible that our day-to-day experiences are a complete fabrication, and we (or I, because I have no way of KNOWING whether or not others are conscious) could simply be a brain in a jar, or computer code running on a simulation. But, if we are conscious (and I assume, though do not know, that others are), then there can be no denying that we exist. We are our consciousness. So, whatever our physical reality, we cannot be mistaken about our conscious reality.

About solipsism. In every possible world a mind can only see the mind they have. So in all worlds where mind(s) exist, solipsism is an option that is consistent and logical. The problem then is to give it credence when every circumstansial evidence hints at solipsism is not the case.

[@mobbossgambino]

The reason why it is so difficult to understand you are the center of the universe, is because you believe you are the body. This is why one can gain enlightenment by following the breath going in one's nose, or noticing one's surroundings. Because when we do, we realise I am looking at, or from out of, what I think is myself. And if I can do that I must not be the body. So if I find myself at the conclusion I am the center of the universe, and I know I am not my body Then whoever I am MUST be the center of the universe, in actuality. Now when you notice the bodies around you, you understand the same goes for them. So we all in that moment of understanding, are not different people, but the one and only being in existence, but living an experience through different bodies. So it is necessary for you to see yourself for the reason life exists, the same goes for everyone else as well, because that is the whole truth and nothing but. WE are HIM. HIM being the only conscious being to exist or ever will.

According to the philosophy of Solipsism, how did you conclude that only the mind exists? It is possible to control your consciousness and thoughts from an external source. You feel that it is your consciousness, but in reality it is not.

You watch a lot of those?

[@CarlosIvanDonet]

So as I’m watching this video, do I think my mind is coming up with all this stuff? Solipsism is not new to me. So do I think that this is just a compartmentalization of myself, believing I am watching this video, when it’s just a part of me making this up? I just signed up to Netflix, and watch “leave the world behind” and now I’m watching this, it feels so ironic.

Solopsism is an conviction, which is not something true skepticism indulges in. A skeptic would go over the idea and entertain it, but not integrate it as fundemental, because that goes against the entire sentiment.

first 7 minutes of "The Episode that Solved Stewie's Paradox" by KZbinr The Theorizer , PERFECTLY explains HOW and WHAT caused big bang + creation of TIME but just imagine SATAN and ADAM doing it instead of Stewie and his dog. could this be the reason why God can't kill Satan but only imprison him? who saved Adam by giving him the knowledge of good and evil thus making him a GOD ? Satan. (ancient serpent) how does your reproductive system look like? if you're a man, it looks like a SNAKE. if you're a woman, it looks like MOUTH of the SNAKE. real God/Observer that imagined things into existence is bigger than we've ever thought!!! the bible also says that God will rule for 1000 years AFTER imprisoning Satan for 1000 years does this sound suspicious to you ?

Of coarse it still makes a sound otherwise you need to retract your info regarding sound waves. Sound waves don’t say ‘ooooh there isn’t a human being around so we won’t exist’ ffs jz leave a tape recorder & it will pick up the sound of the tree falling

[@Poppa_Capinyoaz]

That makes the tape recorder the observer.

[@emtemple100]

I agree. The falling tree creates sound waves whether anyone is there or not.

[@mararoxa2638]

@@Poppa_Capinyoaz no it doesn’t because a tape recorder can’t see so how is it an observer when it’s got no eyes

@@mararoxa2638in science, an ‘observer’ is typically anything that can record a timestamp of something. Whether it be a sound or an image. Look into the double slit experiment for some stuff that will blow your mind.
