Thought of the day #4: Time

The nature of time can be found in the nature of... well... nature.

Time moves along like how a fern tree is structured. On every fern tree you can focus on a leaf which is like a mini fern tree in itself. Then on THAT mini fern tree there is ANOTHER mini-er fern tree, and so on. The cycle repeats and gets infinitely smaller and divided up into little mini fern trees until all a fern tree leaf comprised of ALL fern tree leaves is reached. It reaches a zero point. An inconceivable point of oneness. "Point zero". Same with time.

Clip: Existence

It's always worth going back to the basic fundamental topic of all life and having a good old think about it - existence.

Because really, whether people realise it or not, their core beliefs about what "existence" is, and what it's for, and why it's there, really comes out in their life, be it consciously or subconsciously. Except most people gave up thinking about it due to the complexity of it. But it's worth digging for truths!



What are your theories?

The Fibonacci Sequence in Lateralus, and the Spirals of Life

Ever wondered what the big deal about Tool is?
Curious about the depth to which they delve? Watch the following vid.

This vid will resonate mostly with people who have heard of the Fibonacci sequence before, and like the band Tool.
However, even if you haven't and/or don't, then bare with me. The reason for putting this vid up has a purpose.
Here it is:



What should be understood is that I'm not putting this up to promote Tool (even though they're awesome. (woops).). The focus here is the Fibonacci sequence (google it).

I had an interesting psychedelic experience come over me one day where i became completely aware of all things in life occurring in spirals. Thoughts, events, feelings, situations, time, patterns, objects, nature, everything. And then in those spirals there were other spirals, and in THOSE spirals there were spirals. The pattern continues until BANG - we have what we perceive as reality. The spirals are so deep within spirals within spirals within spirals and so on that we don't even recognise them as spirals.

It's hard to explain, and nevermind if you don't understand. (Hell, even i can barely understand my own epiphany at this stage). But the point is, it was this experience that felt so significant and real that lead me to ask questions about spirals and its relation to the nature of the flow of life. I pursued for knowledge. I thought to myself, "Surely, somewhere in the world somebody else has had similar realizations too", so i googled away, and sure enough, "the truth was out there".

Enter the concepts of the Fibonacci Sequence and the Golden Ratio (google them).



If you can't be bothered googling for yourself. Here's some links from a quick dig i just did then:
- The Fibonacci Number (wiki)
- The Golden Ratio (wiki)
- The Fibonacci Sequence, Spirals and the Golden Man
- Scientists find clues to the formation of Fibonacci spirals in nature
- The Divine Proportion
- The Fibonacci Series
- Fibonacci Numbers in Nature
That should be enough for now.

The Fibonacci Sequence, although simple, i believe has a complex significance to it that could provide answers to the nature of the flow of life. I believe there is a divine meaning behind it, and understanding it could reveal answers about reality and time. Just gotta study it now.

Article: Is There Science Behind 2012 Prophecies?

Ever heard about "2012" and wondered what it was all about?
There are a lot of theories out there, some extreme, some not.

Scientist Gregg Braden, the best-selling author of “Fractal Time”, puts it into real-time perspective.

Keep an eye out for towards the end of the interview, when Braden talks about a revolutionary discovery that scientists made in 2001 about how human feelings affect the earth's magnetic field. An amazing concept. If everybody in the world knew this information, the world would be a different place. For the better.



Q: You say that 2012 is not the end of the world but the end of a world age—a 5,125-year cycle of time?

Braden: Some people speak about 2012 like any other news story that you hear about every day. Others who may not have heard anything about 2012 say, “What’s the big deal about a date?”

Q: Maybe they think it’s like Y2K.

Braden: Precisely! I was an engineer, working in the defense industry in the 1980s when I first began hearing about the year 2012. Some people were saying, literally, “It’s the end of the world.” Others said, “It’s the end of the world as we know it.” And some even said, “It’s the beginning of a thousand years of peace.”

Everyone I asked had a different opinion. What I discovered as a scientist was that the only way that I would know what 2012 was all about was to understand the people who created the calendars that tell us about 2012. And the only way to understand them was to understand great cycles of time.
