Dear Georgina;

About once perhaps being able to choose your history:

Indeed it is not necessary to clean up the memory you have on the life-line you are now aware of, each life line has his own history and future , you just "jump" to another one with a "better" past, the one you were on is becoming one of the infinite availabilities. You can say that when this happens you will not be aware of this "improvement", that is true for the state of mind we have just now, there are I think however pasts and futures where mankind will have the possibility to make a choice , making a choice means also that you can compare life-lines, so the histories compared are becoming a part of your "real" awareness.

These life-lines can be compared (because we have to make a causal comparison)with the lines on a cone , the NOW is the centre , a point with no dimensions, a non-causal singularity, a scale invariant entity that represents the "Eternal Now". This singularity can represent the absolute nothing or the infinite ALL, because it is not imprisoned in dimensions. ALL possible and impossible life lines are passing through, so at every Eternal Now moment consciousness (if it ware able to) has the possibility to choose which way to go or which way it went.

In the life line that we are experiencing now, so only on the Eternal Now moment there is the possibility to change, in the history of your "present" life-line there are no such moments. However the Eternal Now moments are the RYTHM of reality, the Planck time.

This is in concordance with my perception that behind the Planck length and time there is another dimensionless non causal indescribable universe which is the singularity that is both ALL and Nothing, Total Simultaneity.

This thought is becoming now more accepted as the top-minds in theoretical physics and philosophy, among them Leonard Susskind posed the idea that in the center of a black hole there is not a material singularity but at the Planck length a wormhole that gives admittance to other universes. What I propose is that once you are passing the Planck length you enter Total Simultaneity, but not only in the centre of a black hole but at every point in our universe, so TS can be "reached" everywhere, the wormhole not only gives entrance to another space but also to pasts and futures.

see for this NEW SCIENTIST of 27th july 2013 page 10 : The great Quantum Space-Time tangle.

Our non-causal part of consciousness "resides" in TS, the Eternal Now, the dimensionless entity and is through entanglement connected with the causal part that is captured in dimensions.

I hope this explains a little, I know it is difficult to grab, it is just one perception and I am still working on the complete OEUVRE.

best regards, and do not hesitate to ask me if you have more questions, it is also me when I answer them that is learning.

Dear Wilhelmus,

As I told you in my Essay page, I have read your pretty Essay. Here are my comments/questions.

1) I find interesting your decomposing information as far as PB and PS and the duality between these "building blocks of reality" and the Block Universe.

2) Why did you state that each Primal Sequence has the length of a Planck-time?

3) In your statement "Our causal consciousness can be imagined as an emerged singularity from the total constitution of the materialistic created reality (Creality) of body and brain" has the word "singularity" the usual mathematical meaning?

4) I like that the duality between possible states of a single qubit and Bloch Sphere is connected with the Holographic Principle.

5) Although in your physical world there is more uncertainty than in quantum mechanics, you claim that "we may achieve a whole new form of "knowledge" that can become WISDOM". This looks a bit contradictory. Don't you think that there is also a potential negative alternative, a complete breakdown of causality that could generate a complete CHAOS?

In any case, your Essay is beautiful and I enjoyed in reading it. Thus, I will give you a high rate.

Cheers,

Ch.

    Dear Christian,

    Thank you very much for your valued attention

    ref 2. I choose the Planck length because at that length there is longer before or after possible, you could regard it as the limit of causality, the same is done in string theory and Loop Quantum Gravity. However I am also aware that this can be only a limit that comes with the actual knowledge of physics. For example in Physorg.com (http://www.physorg.com/print/228653869) from 04/07/2011 is a report from ESA's Integral Gamma ray observatory, that the "graininess" may be 10^-48 instead of the 10^-33. This however does not "destroy" my perception because I think that for a real limit to reality and causality we will have to accept the fact "limit" wherever it may be.

    ref 3. A Singularity has no dimensions, it is dimensionless, this means that it is not imprisoned in waves or "matter", it is scale independent. Consciousness is not a wave nor has a material appearance you can imagine it also as dimensionless, the mathematical meaning can be applied but not ad-infinitum I think.

    ref 5. We are living in a complete chaos and trying to find our way through all kind of troubles and fighting entropy. The inborn duality of our present creality gives us love at one side and war at the other, we seek the right path in between like finding our way in the infinite amount of tones of grey that I mention in my essay. (the wave particle duality is not a duality but there are all kind of states in-between). The complete breakdown of causality has the possibility to enter a non-causal universe , freedom of time, dimensionless, so become a singularity that is because it is dimensionless both the absolute Zero and the absolute Everything, Total Simultaneity, where the non-causal consciousness "resides" (wrong word , but we have no expression for that state) and maybe is like GOD. (perhaps we can "experience" (again an expression of a state we cannot describe) this state when our causal consciousness is liberated from the dimensions). I am however optimistic about the future evolvement of consciousness, as humanity (that is just one tool for being conscious) is still very young and has hopefully a long way to go and become more and more able to straighten and understand the entanglement between its non-causal part of consciousness.

    I thank for the rating you gave me, it gave one of moments of happiness in the struggle for getting heard.

    best regards

    Wilhelmus

    thank you Satyavarapu for your extensive answer and your positive rating.

    I visited your website and you are really giving a message, although I may not be of the same opinion, I am always interested in different perceptions, it is ALL the colours together that constitute the rainbow.

    best regards

    Hi Wilhelmus,

    thank you very much for your reply. Lots to think about.One puzzlement for now; If I hop to a different better life line does the former one erase itself from memory, (the neural systems allowing recall)?, how? Or is there awareness of the old and the new history? How does the new history that wasn't, but now is, write itself into memory? I can imagine such a thing being done artificially by implanting false memories but I can't imagine the natural process of change that accompanies the hop.

    Dear Wilhelmus de Wilde:

    I am an old physician and I don't know nothing of mathematics and almost nothing of physics. maybe you would be interested in my essay over a subject which after the common people, physic discipline is the one that uses more than any other, the so called "time".

    I am sending you a practical summary, so you can easy decide if you read or not my essay "The deep nature of reality".

    I am convince you would be interested in reading it. ( most people don't understand it, and is not just because of my bad English).

    Hawking in "A brief history of time" where he said , "Which is the nature of time?" yes he don't know what time is, and also continue saying............Some day this answer could seem to us "obvious", as much than that the earth rotate around the sun....." In fact the answer is "obvious", but how he could say that, if he didn't know what's time? In fact he is predicting that is going to be an answer, and that this one will be "obvious", I think that with this adjective, he is implying: simple and easy to understand. Maybe he felt it and couldn't explain it with words. We have anthropologic proves that man measure "time" since more than 30.000 years ago, much, much later came science, mathematics and physics that learn to measure "time" from primitive men, adopted the idea and the systems of measurement, but also acquired the incognita of the experimental "time" meaning. Out of common use physics is the science that needs and use more the measurement of what everybody calls "time" and the discipline came to believe it as their own. I always said that to understand the "time" experimental meaning there is not need to know mathematics or physics, as the "time" creators and users didn't. Instead of my opinion I would give Einstein's "Ideas and Opinions" pg. 354 "Space, time, and event, are free creations of human intelligence, tools of thought" he use to call them pre-scientific concepts from which mankind forgot its meanings, he never wrote a whole page about "time" he also use to evade the use of the word, in general relativity when he refer how gravitational force and speed affect "time", he does not use the word "time" instead he would say, speed and gravitational force slows clock movement or "motion", instead of saying that slows "time". FQXi member Andreas Albrecht said that. When asked the question, "What is time?", Einstein gave a pragmatic response: "Time," he said, "is what clocks measure and nothing more." He knew that "time" was a man creation, but he didn't know what man is measuring with the clock.

    I insist, that for "measuring motion" we should always and only use a unique: "constant" or "uniform" "motion" to measure "no constant motions" "which integrates and form part of every change and transformation in every physical thing. Why? because is the only kind of "motion" whose characteristics allow it, to be divided in equal parts as Egyptians and Sumerians did it, giving born to "motion fractions", which I call "motion units" as hours, minutes and seconds. "Motion" which is the real thing, was always hide behind time, and covert by its shadow, it was hide in front everybody eyes, during at least two millenniums at hand of almost everybody. Which is the difference in physics between using the so-called time or using "motion"?, time just has been used to measure the "duration" of different phenomena, why only for that? Because it was impossible for physicists to relate a mysterious time with the rest of the physical elements of known characteristics, without knowing what time is and which its physical characteristics were. On the other hand "motion" is not something mysterious, it is a quality or physical property of all things, and can be related with all of them, this is a huge difference especially for theoretical physics I believe. I as a physician with this find I was able to do quite a few things. I imagine a physicist with this can make marvelous things.

    With my best whishes

        dear Paul,

        The photon as a time carrier is quite a new and fascinating idea, my perception however is that also a photon is only ONE way to explain our reality through observation. The photon is both wave and "particle" and ALL in between these two extremities (I think). So it is one of the infinite possibilities to explain what we are experiencing as reality.

        The reversals as you indicate are "available" at every "moment" every "eternal now" that is at the cross-point of what we experience as the past and the future, the experienced past however is only one of an infinite amount of available pasts.

        best regards

        and hoping for your reply

        Hi Wilhelmus,

        sorry if it is an awkward question. I'm popping by occasionally to see if there is a reply as I am interested in how it could work.

        I understand that for trauma victims, such as soldiers returning from active duty, revisiting past memories can allow rewriting of the events and responses.As memories are not fixed but plastic. The participant can come to feel in control being mentally back in that traumatic situation. It is thought to be therapeutic as long as it is not conducted too soon after the traumatic incident. It leads to present changes in brain structure and function, allowing recovery from post traumatic stress.

        Reliving and altering memories is not the same as swapping world line in your model though, or is it?

        Dear Georgina,

        First I am sorry that I did not reply to your post of august 1, it is because of the fact that in the morning it was there, and I always answer in the evening but then in the evening it was no longer there, I understand it had to do with the server and not me changing a life-line :-).

        Well it is my perception (point of view) that changing life-lines is a process that happens every Planck time. The past belonging to every new NOW (which is already in the past when you become aware of it, and that NOW being part of the Eternal NOW that is comparable with the block universe of that Planck moment)is also one of the infinite so called "pasts" (that we are aware of because of the causality and the dimensions that create the "CREALITY), belonging to a Creality of that specific causal time-life-line. The so called material entity that is your BODY is also a Creality of Consciousness to interpret the this life line in for our five senses comprehensible data.

        Your memory that is belonging to the MIND of that material (see dematerialisation part in my essay)is so a causal part of that specific causal life-line (at that moment you could call it the ZERO line because it is in the centre of causal consciousness and its Eternal Now.

        Your causal part of consciousness is like travelling around between a myrad of yourselves, and each change of line does not affect the old memory that will however being kept available in Total Simultaneity.

        Some people can sense other life-lines, see in the future and talk languages they never learned, this can be explained in this way of thinking.

        Humanity and its senses are just at the beginning of the development of their until now 5 senses, there is hope...

        Wilhelmus

        Thanks Wilhelmus,

        I think I have a better understanding of what you mean now. I will have to think about it some more though.
