Dear de WILDE,

Good essay on new concepts TS, TC, ENM etc. And very nice development of these ideas were done in the essay, my congratulations.

Your words.... "It is widely accepted that 13,8 billion years ago somehow /somewhere the universe as we are (partly) aware of underwent a change that led to a conclusion that there is a "beginning". To arrive at a for the present scientific ideas an acceptable beginning of of nowhere, ideas like singularity and inflation were introduced."

................. You are introducing these concepts "Beginning and Singularity" based on Expanding Universe Models. These concepts are inevitable there. These concepts are based observation of redshifted Galaxies, which are 40 percent in the universe. They ignored rest 60 percent.

Have a look at my essay also where these singularity and Bigbang were avoided by showing relevant reference papers ...

Best wishes................

    Dear Wilhelmus

    It was interesting to read your essay and indid I agree that the Emerging Reality is in the continuous present. Also that we are all subjective with our actions and perception. Yet we are a Union of Subjective life forms and as such its existence is Unique in Union and Multiplicity.

    I develop through my observation an approach that explain the occurrence of the self organization while it is continuously changing. (here in the FQXi contest - we are together,therefore I am)

      Dear Peter,

      "managing the vast number of possibilities" is just another way of explaining "free will". It can also be called "creativity". Creating an emergent phenomenon in the NOW that is also radiating on the SSS (Subjective Simultaneity Sphere's) of other observers. However this "creation" is just a another life-line available in TS.

      Sorry for the two scores of "1" , I am aware that it will maybe arrive to me as well, but it is inherent to the system of valuation of this contest.I am not in favor of contestants giving scores toother contestents.

      best regards

      Thanks Steve,

      The last time I was informed of your situation, your mother had problems, is it going better now ?

      Dear Brenco,

      I argue that an emergent reality is not gradual in its essense. It is just like an idea not divisible in quanta. The problem with quanta is that inbetween these "units" there is a "space". Our emerging phenomenon that is called space-time is an idea not a structured entity.

      We can "think" about this idea like being structured in quanta but this is only "thinking" about reality, and as so creating another probability in TS. Each probbility that is thought of by observers is a reality so....

      Dear George

      My perception cannot agree with any contadiction of thinking. Any thinking will reveal a "reality".

      I am gonna read your essy and will come bck to it on your thread.

      best regards

      Dear Satyavarapu,

      The results of scientific research seem (until yesterday) to indicate that our universe has abeginning. Indeed our universe has (regarding human consciesness) 7,5 billion beginnings, every one believing in a Big Bang is creating a BIg Bang as beginning for his reality. I do not "believe " in a BB, nor in an expanding universe. The reality I live in is just an excitation that appears for my parception as a flowing time/life -line untill NOW. The "nowhere" is the totality of probabilities in TS that we cannot reach from where every conscious thinking emerges, each one creating its own beginning.

      I will go and read your essay.

      best regards

      Dear Yehuda,

      Indeed as you mention we are "ONE" in this contest of FQXi.

      We all are interpreting our awareness of reality and if we are searching for a goal. As I mentioned in my essay we are like a group of soap bubbles , each one with unique subjective information but also with objective information that is the result of being here together. But is remains an emergeing phenomenon...

      Wilhelmus de Wilde,

      You seem to say that the singularity that each individual feel is just an 'integral' within the given limits of a continuous reality. A very nice idea connecting mathematics and philosophy. Mathematics and philosophy always go hand in hand. 'Infinity', 'continuous' and 'simultaneity' all go together, and each can create a mystic feeling. The lack-luster 'finite', 'grainy' and 'localized' reality is disappointing.

      Considering the metaphysics content, this is the best essay I have read in the present contest. In terms of physics content also, it is the best, provided QM is correct. However, I differ regarding QM: light is streams of rotating particle-pairs, which create three-dimensional wave-patterns; so it shows the properties of waves also; there is no wave-particle duality and consequent uncertainty.

      In my proposed model, matter is grainy, and so everything connected with matter is finite. The finite universe remains in an infinite loop of pulsations - the only possible way a finite thing can exist in an infinite frame. So the 'infinite possibilities' (that you visualize) get reduced to finite possibilities, and ultimately to just one possibility that is, a pulsating universe, which cannot exist in any other form.

      As matter is perfectly grainy, each individual is real, a real singularity, and his consciousness is just one of the allowed possibilities in a finite set, not part of or entangled with the infinite Total Consciousness. The difference comes from finite vs infinity, and grainy vs continuous. Poles apart, and that creates an affinity.

        Dear Jose

        Thank you for your enlightning post.

        Of course QM is grainy, it is the essence of the this way of thinking.

        A way of thinking is expressed as "idea". Ideas are also constituted of parts because no idea can exist without time, it is the "order" of the parts of the idea that are constituting a new idea through consciousness.

        The infinite loop of "pulsations" as you name it, is also a way of thinking, so in my perception an availability, thee reducing is again the result of time, we just cannot perceive a timeless and spaceless infinity of thoughts. But any thought is a part of the TOTAL, without the smallest there is no Total.

        best regards

        Wilhelmus

        So we agree that our 3-D universe is an emergent phenomenon.

        Quanta does not mean: inbetween these "units" there is a "space".

        Regards,

        Branko

          My dear Wilhelmus,

          I can be with you completely agree, when I see how growing my grandchildren in the other world than it has been in our time.

          I can also think that maybe the crocodile can be born from the chiken eggs with the time! However, I never can think that energy preservation law, or the value of pi (3,14 ...), can be changeable, in the past, or in the future.

          I have initially put high score on your essay because it is informative and written just beautiful! Excuse me if something is not that!

          Best wishes

            Hi Wihelmus,

            No she is dead 3 years ago and my grang father also like my father.I have no brother nor sister,alone with two small dogs.She is dead due to cancer and depression.I have had a lot in 41 years you know.I try to take the force of this faith instead of this depression due to an ocean of sufferings and personal sufferings.This planet is sometimes very difficult psychologically speaking.But it is like that,some have easier others more difficult.I accept my situation and I try to evolve.I am thanking you Wihelmus ,It is nice in all case,take care.

            Friendly

            Dear George,

            In your emergent reality (the one you are experiencing right now) and in our collective NOW memory, energy preservation and pi are stable,. Changing of life-line may reveal that they may be changing, when you change life lines you are not aware of the specific changes.

            I thank you for your rating, but it is best not to talk about in the threads I think.

            best regards

            Wilhelmus

            Wilhelmus de Wilde,

            QM is based on simultaneity of grainy and continuous. A photon is a particle and wave at the same time. Einstein, though he had a crucial role in developing the quantum concept, never agreed with this uncertainty. The metaphysical beauty of QM lies in this uncertainty, 'God playing dice'. Physical reality may not be that much beautiful.

            Jose P Koshy

            Dear Jose,

            I agree with you that our emerging physical reality is not that much beautiful. God playing dice means for me Total Consciousness leading to the blinking of a time and space restricted consiousness with all its uncertainties, defaults and incomprehensions. We are just smelling at TS through our thinking of QM.

            best regards

            Wilhelmus
