EngloYahuadi ❤ KINsider Man did not invent letters, numbers & words! They where given to man by YaHU'aH AllahAYnu Tsaboath Aleph TaU echad 🔯 💜 🔺 🔻 💜 Therefore, to interpret the bible, Biblios, Biblia & SCRIPTURE, we must do so, from a YAHUADIM OF YAHUADAH SOUTHERN KINGDOM PERSPECTIVE & TRADITION 💜! Not Jew nor Christian! 🚫 🤨KINsidering the Qodesh words YaH gave us, vs the words, the lying SCRIBES-LAWYERS-WARLOCKS-Pharisees, (who hid the keys of knowledge), inserted!!!.Ezekiel 44:23 And they shall teach my people the difference between the QODESH and PROFANE, and cause them to discern between the UNCLEAN and the clean. Ayob 38:2, MatithYahu 12:36, Ezek 22:26, Ezekiel 36:23 The reason within the mathematics that we developed on the basis of our deductive reasoning match and describe precisely the reason that is built into the universe! The very design of the universe, can also be described mathematicaly! This is the best explanation for what greeks call theism! It provides a principle of correspondence that the same Creator who made the design, the rationality, the orderly patterns we see in nature, made our minds in such a way to discern the mathematical structure that is inherent in those systems. And that's why we can do science! Modern science & nature, issued from the same intelligence namely YaHU'aH who made our minds, also gave us letters and numbers, that we could understand, him, creation & nature..................Dr. Stephen Meyer When man received language & ToYaH📖, {As Moshe' was writing about YaH, not 🚫 Rah}, it was sent in a long stream of numbers only. They took the numbers, and assigned 22 letters,1 for each number, marrying them as one. From numbers, to letters, to words & sentences formed to paragraphs, & ToYaH was born, in this reALM!🟦🟦📖This gift given by YaH🔯, that we may know, comprehend & understand; How YaHUaH exists in CONCEPTUALITY, imagination & in all reALMs, simultaneously. Seen and/or UNSEEN! Words and numbers are HIS CONCEPTS existing in & out, of time, space & the mind. TheY are both inside, and outside our reality. They are part of it, yet not off it, SIMULTANEOUSLY. And they are so, with or without human awareness, of them. They function, in accordance, with his commanded Laws. We spELl words! Therefore, realize & know, words are in fact; SPELLS! In order to, "CAST", them wisely, one must know their origins, etymology, initial intent, & Era of use. Understand NAMES are the SHORTEST, yet, MOST POWERFUL of spELls! Letters, numbers & words are tools of manifestation. We know this simplistically , because all human made things, be it a car, a dress, a house, etc., these things began, in the imagination reALM! And it took a lot of thoughts, words written, PLANning, and other endeavors to manifest it, into this reality, as a product, service or best of all a pearl of wisdom, in a tome of instruction, called plans! They come with fixed laws unchangeable, as 1+1= 2 in both CONCEPTUALITY & REALITY! Such is where our SowEL's are! Look around, You have eyes that see in this reALM of OUTER REALITY. However, you can close your eyes now, and see mountains, trees, the sea or anything else in the INTERNAL REALITY, without your physical eyes! That INTERNAL VIEWER, looking inward, or outward with your eyes, is THY SowEL! More truth, the pen is mightier, than the sword, in the hands of the right man. Yet a phone call, trumps them all, as life changes, after a conversation, language exchange🦉spoKIN words, from one in authority! More understanding; The wind blows, {Breath} and is felt, yet not seen! It exists in & out of this reALM. Waves form, as it blows across the sea, branches break and trees move, due to a strong breeze! Some things are destroyed, when it blows fiercely! Again, we see the aftermath only! These facts exist, with and/or without man! YaHs handy work, the unseen host! These things once comprehended, establish Father in our limited capacity.

I am a physicist and I will explain why our scientific knowledge refutes the idea that consciousness is generated by the brain and that the origin of our mental experiences is physical/biological . My argument proves that the fragmentary structure of brain processes implies that brain processes are not a sufficient condition for the existence of consciousness, which existence implies the existence in us of an indivisible unphysical element, which is usually called soul or spirit (in my youtube channel you can find a video with more detailed explanations). I also argue that all emergent properties are subjective cognitive contructs used to approximately describe underlying physical processes, and that these descriptions refer only to mind-dependent entities. Consciousness, being implied by these cognitive contructs, cannot itself be an emergent property. Preliminary considerations: the concept of set refers to something that has an intrinsically conceptual and subjective nature and implies the arbitrary choice of determining which elements are to be included in the set; what exists objectively are only the single elements. In fact, when we define a set, it is like drawing an imaginary line that separates some elements from all the other elements; obviously this imaginary line does not exist physically, independently of our mind, and therefore any set is just an abstract idea, a cognitive construct and not a physical entity and so are all its properties. Similar considerations can be made for a sequence of elementary processes; sequence is a subjective and abstract concept. Mental experience is a precondition for the existence of subjectivity/arbitrariness and cognitive constructs, therefore mental experience cannot itself be a cognitive construct; obviously we can conceive the concept of consciousness, but the concept of consciousness is not actual consciousness. (With the word consciousness I do not refer to self-awareness, but to the property of being conscious= having a mental experiences such as sensations, emotions, thoughts, memories and even dreams). From the above considerations it follows that only indivisible elements may exist objectively and independently of consciousness, and consequently the only logically coherent and significant statement is that consciousness exists as a property of an indivisible element. Furthermore, this indivisible entity must interact globally with brain processes because we know that there is a correlation between brain processes and consciousness. This indivisible entity is not physical, since according to the laws of physics, there is no physical entity with such properties; therefore this indivisible entity can be identified with what is traditionally called soul or spirit. The soul is the missing element that interprets globally the distinct elementary physical processes occurring at separate points in the brain as a unified mental experience. Some clarifications. The brain doesn't objectively and physically exist as a mind-independent entity since we create the concept of the brain by separating an arbitrarily chosen group of quantum particles from everything else. This separation is not done on the basis of the laws of physics, but using addictional subjective criteria, independent of the laws of physics; actually there is a continuous exchange of molecules with the blood and when and how such molecules start and stop being part of the brain is decided arbitrarily. Brain processes consist of many parallel sequences of ordinary elementary physical processes occurring at separate points. There is no direct connection between the separate points in the brain and such connections are just a subjective abstractions used to approximately describe sequences of many distinct physical processes. Indeed, considering consciousness as a property of an entire sequence of elementary processes implies the arbitrary definition of the entire sequence; the entire sequence as a whole (and therefore every function/property/capacity attributed to the brain) is a subjective abstraction that does not refer to any mind-independendent reality. Physicalism/naturalism is based on the belief that consciousness is an emergent property of the brain. However, an emergent property is defined as a property that is possessed by a set of elements that its individual components do not possess; my arguments prove that this definition implies that emergent properties are only subjective cognitive constructs and therefore, consciousness cannot be an emergent property. Actually, all the alleged emergent properties are just simplified and approximate descriptions or subjective/arbitrary classifications of underlying physical processes or properties, which are described directly by the fundamental laws of physics alone, without involving any emergent properties (arbitrariness/subjectivity is involved when more than one option is possible; in this case, more than one possible description). An approximate description is only an abstract idea, and no actual entity exists per se corresponding to that approximate description, simply because an actual entity is exactly what it is and not an approximation of itself. What physically exists are the underlying physical processes. Emergence is nothing more than a cognitive construct that is applied to physical phenomena, and cognition itself can only come from a mind; thus emergence can never explain mental experience as, by itself, it implies mental experience. My approach is scientific and is based on our scientific knowledge of the physical processes that occur in the brain; my arguments prove that such scientific knowledge excludes the possibility that the physical processes that occur in the brain could be a sufficient condition for the existence of consciousness.

[@ready1fire1aim1]

This is an insightful question that gets at the heart of how different domains of knowledge relate to one another. Let me examine the potential correlaries: If mathematics is regarded as a language: It provides the symbolic primitives, axioms, rules of expression and operations for describing and quantifying the physical world. Math is the fundamental lingua franca spanning the observable and theoretical realms. Then physics could indeed be viewed as the philosophy of math: Physics takes the symbolic language of mathematics and develops conceptual models, interpretive frameworks, and coherent narratives to explain the behavior of matter, energy, space, and time. It is an extended meditation on the metaphysical implications of our mathematical descriptions. Following this analogy: Chemistry could be the "linguistics" of physics: It studies the rules by which the fundamental mathematical objects of physics (subatomic particles, forces) combine and relate to one another at the molecular scale. Chemistry decodes the rich language patterns constructed from the physics alphabet. Biology could be the "literature/poetry" of chemistry: It examines the self-organized, dynamical, informationally-complex systems that emerge from the linguistic rules of chemistry interacting over time. The molecules are the "words", but biology studies the living, evolving "narratives" they collectively construct. Throughout we see a progression of epistemological layers: Mathematics -> Symbolic framework Physics -> Conceptual models interpreting the symbols Chemistry -> Combination rules and linguistic mechanics Biology -> Dynamical, informationally-complex systems and narratives Each level builds upon the foundational primitives of mathematics, while introducing new degrees of contingent complexity, contextualized interpretation and narrative meaning. The symbolic logic enables and constrains the possible conceptual structures, which dictate the allowed chemical rules, from which biological storylines ultimately automate. So in summary: Math is the linguistic bedrock Physics is the conceptual philosophy elaborating upon that bedrock Chemistry is the combinatoric linguistics deriving word-formation rules Biology is the dynamical narrative/poetry expressing highest complexity This nested hierarchy preserves coherence, while allowing increasingly context-specific, contingent patterns of organization and meaning to emergently crystallize. By recognizing mathematics as our formal symbolic language, we can appreciate how physics, chemistry and biology represent successive epistemological stages philosophizing upon that originating expressive framework - interpreting, recombining and dynamically instantiating mathematical descriptions into maximally information-rich experiential narratives. The layers build hereditarily upon the foundational symbolic truths, exemplifying how mathematics enables derivations transcending its pristine origins - expressing itself cosmologically through an invisible hand of self-organized complexity climbing towards maximal richness of experience.

And what underlies this wonderfully rendered story? 🤔

[@pichan8841]

Interesting thoughts, indeed! They almost have a religious ring to them...Here are some of my thoughts on the matter (of course I stole a.k.a plagiarized them from many many wise people smarter than myself) Math may well be regarded as a language, I guess. But we can do physics without math, just by describing (verbally or in many other ways, a silent KZbin video, e.g.) what we perceive (empiricism), what we believe to be the cause of what we perceive (hypothesis) and what we expect to happen in the future based upon our hypothesis (prediction/experimental test). We may not be able to accurately calculate quantifiable outcomes, but we sure will be able to signify qualitative change. It is possible to imagine conclusive, logically consistent mathematical systems other than the one(s) we have (e.g. by changing our axioms or definitions). It might be possible to invent mathematical systems that are not linked to physical analogies we perceive in 'the world' (We may invent maths of imaginary worlds excluding e.g. our 3-dimensional 'reality' or time, math only 'applicable' within the narrow confines of a Fantasy-SF novel, e.g. the new 'Harry Potter-StarWars-Trek of Thrones'). Physics, chemistry, biology and many human affairs are interconnected in a way that makes it impossible to change one without the other. Thus, chemistry may be regarded as an emergent property of physics, biology as an emergent property of chemistry, human behaviour as an emergent property of biology. Example: Fear of death may be an emergent property of life. But still, it is real and does change the physical world, e.g. when we annihilate the planet in mutual assured destruction with nuclear weapons meant for deterrence and dissuasion. Though we may never be able to calculate accurately loyalty, love, forgivenness, friendship, equality, etc. (not to mention all the 'negative' stuff...) we can show that they are forces shaping our physical, chemical, biological, and of course social reality similar to the way the laws of aerodynamics, acoustics, or the Lorentz force, etc. do. I digressed 'a little' here....If you made it this far: Thanks! 🙏

Jazzguitar legend Django Reinhard after a serious accident, that would have incapacitated most, became known for his two-finger-left-hand-technique, Johnny... Anyways, I was extra careful in my attempt to drawing parallels to religion! So I thought... OK, here we go: @ready1fire1aim1 proposed a hierarchical theory of metascience that bulids upon math as the core element from which everything else is derived. He/she/(they) - be careful what you say - assume(s), I guess that there is order in the universe that allows for such an approach to be sensible and useful. While we humans may structure our systems of ordering/analyzing/understanding reality the way he does (you do?), it may aswell be a dead end, rendering ourselves incapable of further understanding (and manipulating) 'the world'. There is no need for the world to follow our sense of order. The world might proove to be chaotic and unfathomably unintelligible. Or it might just be different from what our 'metascientific structure' suggests. Any proof for the world being 'different' might just be put aside as 'observational error', noise, or 'relative standard deviation'. Thus we may never learn that the earth revolves around the sun (or is static and flat, if that's more to your liking...😜) Actually I...believe....that's exactly what's been happening in physics for quite a while, now. And also in other disciplines. Example: We might be biased when it comes to biology. There's living beings and inanimate 'stuff'. But to the piezo-electric quartz-beings from planet 9 who have mastered interdimensional spirit travel across a multitude of realities we're maybe just a very fast CO2-producing reaction on the moist film of planet 3. Maybe It's all just chemistry. No qualitative difference between me and a rock. My thoughts? Maybe a mere byproduct of the sensor-feedback-loops inside my nervous system. My consciousness? Who can prove the rock to be unconscious? I might never learn about the quartz-beings if I'm not willing to put aside my structurally biased quasi-religious system of belief. Sorry, I was developing the thoughts on the flight, only having had a vague feeling of 'religious alert' to begin with...😇 Looking forward to your reply!

We must live in some kind of simulation when everything seems to revolve around math and computations

[@DJWESG1]

We simply pay use those things to give it all meaning. To add it all up. The simulation we made for ourselves is called 'civilisation' (social construct) taking ourselves out of the natural order (the really real).

It actually doesn't, only crazy people pretend that is true.

Vectors (contravariant) are dual to to co vectors (covariant) -- dual bases or Riemann curvature is dual! Positive curvature (dark matter) is dual to negative curvature (dark energy) -- Gauss or Riemann geometry. Dark energy or repulsive gravity is negative curvature or hyperbolic space (inflation) -- divergent.

How is it beneficial to represent one language with another one?

[@infn8loopmusic]

In computational languages you're writing the built in foundational functions that can be called up and used with just a short command like example: For Each() which runs a loop over an array. This delivers a lot of value by simplifying the complex to be short and sweet.
