A Submerged Town: " "Thirst brought him to this waterhole in the parched desert. While drinking the water he suddenly beheld a town on the bottom of this scoopful of water, burying his face in it to see more, almost forgetting to breathe, and hating to return to this world...this scorched, lifeless, friendless, empty desert. - Stanislav Szukalski. https://lnkd.in/eP-XMQ5s View in LinkedIn

“POSTULATE 1.6. Every concrete thing is either a system or a component of one. " "POSTULATE 1.7. Every system, except the universe, is a subsystem of some other system.” (By the late Professor Mario Augusto Bunge). https://lnkd.in/eZVUsMdz View in LinkedIn

SO ENDS this eccentric but succinct summary of various strands of well-known thought related to how the universe seems connected. No appeals to ecological nested systems, nor to quantum entanglement, but a simple exercise in pure logic to reach this conclusion. Elegant and refreshing. https://www.quora.com/Does-everything-in-the-universe-connect?redirect_to_mweb=1 View in LinkedIn

ANIMATED UNIVERSE. “A contradiction? No - the universe has no objective parts, but it is such that it appears to contain thinking parts, to those thinking parts.” https://www.quora.com/Does-everything-in-the-universe-connect?redirect_to_mweb=1 View in LinkedIn

THE FULL CIRCLE. “That isn't to say that minds are separate from the universe. Minds themselves are mind-dependent, subjective parts of the universe.” https://www.quora.com/Does-everything-in-the-universe-connect?redirect_to_mweb=1 View in LinkedIn

MIRROR OF MIND. “The universe is a oneness with no objective parts, there are no things moving around for physicists to track. The equations in modern physics actually describe how our minds work.” https://www.quora.com/Does-everything-in-the-universe-connect?redirect_to_mweb=1 View in LinkedIn

MIND AND MATHS. “This is why modern physics (relativity and quantum theory), most often taught at university rather than high school because it is more complicated. For example, Einstein's theory of general relativity has one formula which describes the state of a system at one moment in time, and another formula which describes how to transfer between moments. But this transfer is not an objective physical phenomenon- this formula describes how our memory works.” https://www.quora.com/Does-everything-in-the-universe-connect?redirect_to_mweb=1 View in LinkedIn

CONCLUSION. “So the mathematical formalism is not a cold, unprejudiced description of objective reality (as you might have learned in high school physics, which is Newtonian physics), it is a CONVERSION algorithm between objective reality and our subjective observations of it.” https://www.quora.com/Does-everything-in-the-universe-connect?redirect_to_mweb=1 View in LinkedIn

SEQUELAE. “Physicists develop their formulae to describe what they observe, but since what they observe is subjective, this subjectivity is necessarily inherent in the formulae.” https://www.quora.com/Does-everything-in-the-universe-connect?redirect_to_mweb=1 View in LinkedIn
