From self to self an endless spring.

(Forcing myself to repeat myself)
P.S What's the matter, is my ego feeling "challenged".


Do I need to prove something to somebody? Am I feeling.... anger? Aggravation? Frustration?

Good! I know how to push my own buttons :lol: :lol: :lol:

Do I need to keep repeating to myself on an endless loop forever until I let go of the need to repeat myself?

I've already explained what TIME actually is, as far as I'm concerned this thread should already be dead.

So what we are looking at, objectively, is the most finite point in 3D space - where, either an event occurs or it doesn't. Binary reality.
But this contradicts our perception of time.
So what? Our perception is also because of events occurring in the sub atomic fabric of our brain.

Speakpigeon wrote: Tue Apr 02, 2019 12:30 pmOne moment, no or very few events. Another moment, a furious myriad of events. I don't think anyone believes time actually slows down or speeds up with the number of events.
Yes, it does. Gravity and the speed one has through space affects the events.
Speakpigeon wrote: Tue Apr 02, 2019 12:30 pmWe even had to devise special contraptions, clocks, to produce special events occurring at regular time intervals, tick·tacks, to tell us time.
Yes, time is the measurement of events that man has attuned clocks to.
Speakpigeon wrote: Tue Apr 02, 2019 12:30 pmAnd even if nothing happens around you, your own body is doing all sorts of things and your brain makes sure you have a notion of the passage of time.
As above RE our perception.

Speakpigeon wrote: Tue Apr 02, 2019 12:30 pmA moment in time isn't an instant. "Moment" is just another word for "period of time", only suggesting something shorter. A moment is just a short period of time, say from less than a second to more than one minute. It really doesn't mean anything to ask for a precise duration. How long is a moment? It depends... It was supposed to take just a moment but we waited instead a long moment in silence...
As I said, at its most finite a moment in time is binary, either there is an event in 3D space, or there isn't - yes, this includes the events occurring within the 'fabric' of our brain.

Speakpigeon wrote: Tue Apr 02, 2019 12:30 pmIf time was the occurrence of an event, or the succession of events, there would be no reason for similar processes to take the same amount of time.
Similar is a massive word in the context of time.

Scientists have for the first time been able to measure something in a zeptosecond, or a trillionth of a billionth of a second.
An attosecond is even larger but is 1×10−18 of a second (one quintillionth of a second). For context, an attosecond is to a second what a second is to about 31.71 billion years. The word "attosecond" is formed by the prefix atto and the unit second.

Speakpigeon wrote: Tue Apr 02, 2019 12:30 pmInstead, if you think events occur in time, in some sort of preexisting time, then events will take a certain time to unfold according to their nature.
No, I don't think you are quite getting this. Events ARE time.

Speakpigeon wrote: Tue Apr 02, 2019 12:30 pmUnless, if there is just one fundamental type of event.
The events that make up our reality - at the binary most finite scale - possibly well beneath the planck scale, may be related to other events in 3D space, but not necessarily in a causal relationship.

Speakpigeon wrote: Tue Apr 02, 2019 12:30 pmThe time for a macroscopic event to unfold would depend on the fundamental events it is made of. In fact, I can't see any other explanation.
Such as the huge amount of events that must occur for a second hand to move a second.

That's what happens when your still centre takes a nosey dive into the hurricane, it gets lost in it's own spin, loving the spin it's in.

The centreless centre allowing it all to happen, looking on in complete detachment :D

You are Not-knowing conceptual knowing, all knowledge informs the illusory nature of the implied knower.

There is nothing to know or understand.

Ego death.
Yet the need to say your ego is dead remains.

Have you ever stuck a cactus up your own ass Walker? :D

"Anal" is still your adjective. You just can't help yourself pinning labels on things, can you?

Tsk tsk. What would you do without language. Think?
