Reality? 2014-08-28 07:31:02


The great question beckons me - why is life experienced?
Why when these chemicals combine does the computation of sensation become reality?
Why when the Universe was born without life did the energy mix and twirl through time to form perception?
The self. Is it anything more than a response to stimuli?
Can we truly say we have free will when all we do is react by instinct?
Even when we apply effort, it is still the natural order of the Universe guiding you.
Everything that happens in this world is Truth.
The timeline of the Universe is the ultimate answer to what is?
Everything that happens within its scope is the one reality, the one experience of our universe.
Is there a meaning to all of this?
Everything is interconnected, that much we know
Math studies the laws of reality, logic is the key to knowing Truth
But what about the Truth of the individual?
We're not just "atoms", for the atoms combine to form something that experiences itself and knows itself.
But this mind, these neurons processing in our brain -- is reality the chemical producing it or the self experiencing it?
Are our thoughts real? Or are they just imagination?
We can't read a neural pathway to interpret the thought it produces.
Only the person experiencing it can know it, thus their reality is their own.
Identity is all that yourself produces cognitively.
Individuality is all which your identity forms to define your self.
Awareness is the Universe experiencing itself, questioning itself, pondering about its own cosmic size.
We are but its children, we are what the Universe truly is.
A complex, enormous reality, with a structure.
Like a personality, it's scattered and vast and difficult to truly understand.
We are the neurosis of our Universe, the character of its judgment.
Pain is the frightening reality of mixed energy being reshaped against the whole.
And the world keeps spinning
And the planet keeps orbiting
And our galaxy keeps floating
And our universe keeps expanding
And we find ourselves approaching infinity wondering if reality can truly inhabit such a concept.
Could our Universe belong to such a cosmic structure?
Is infinity the true guiding force of all reality?
Is reality too small a term to describe all that is?
Perhaps the better word is "all".
Endless, unimaginable length.
He who places no limit to the boundaries of the Universe.
It began that infinity existed before time.
The origin of matter is basic.
It is merely a filling of that endless boundary.
Forming itself by a code, a law.
The law says nothing can be destroyed nor created, its state merely altered.
But before creation there were different rules.
There was an infinity waiting to erupt.
And it will swallow us whole again.
Returning to its womb, the void which goes on.
We will embrace our eternal slumber
In the arms of all energy again.

He is obviously going through an existential crisis.

OP, my advice is, embrace your ignorance and learn to live with it.

OP makes a semi-long post of considerable value with serious questions about life.

Everyone decide to discuss the second post "2deep4me.", because it's easier to read and understand.

Well, that was a nicely written piece, nonetheless.
Something similar that may answer your question would be this thing from Bill Hicks.

You know, because we evolved this way,at some point in time the thing that we call evolution decide we need to feel and experience things or maybe its the side effect of developing a mind thats 'smart' enough that can use tools

Why when these chemicals combine does the computation of sensation become reality?

See above.

Why when the Universe was born without life did the energy mix and twirl through time to form perception?

See above.

The self. Is it anything more than a response to stimuli?

Probably not.

Can we truly say we have free will when all we do is react by instinct?

Relaying on the information we have today, theres is no such thing as free will. We are nothing more but complex machines

Even when we apply effort, it is still the natural order of the Universe guiding you.

Yup.

Everything that happens in this world is Truth.

Yup.

The timeline of the Universe is the ultimate answer to what is?

Umm... what?

Everything that happens within its scope is the one reality, the one experience of our universe.

Are you talking about multi-verse theory? Multi-verse theory is not really a scientific hypothesis. The only logic its based on is: " if there is more then one galaxy then there should be more then one universe."

Is there a meaning to all of this?

I doubt it.

Everything is interconnected, that much we know

Yup.

Math studies the laws of reality, logic is the key to knowing Truth

Yup.

But what about the Truth of the individual?

I don't think there are many truths out there. I think theres is one truth but everyone sees that truth diffrently

We're not just "atoms", for the atoms combine to form something that experiences itself and knows itself.

Is not just atoms, for the atoms combine to from something called a washing machine. You're point?

But this mind, these neurons processing in our brain -- is reality the chemical producing it or the self experiencing it?

See above.

Are our thoughts real? Or are they just imagination?

What is imagination to you?

We can't read a neural pathway to interpret the thought it produces.

Yup.

Only the person experiencing it can know it, thus their reality is their own.

Yes, that is true we don't know what others experience and we cant really explain how we experience it to each other. it called the explanatory gap. The term was invented by Joseph Levine.

Identity is all that yourself produces cognitively.

Yup

Individuality is all which your identity forms to define your self.

Yup.

Awareness is the Universe experiencing itself, questioning itself, pondering about its own cosmic size.

We don't know if the universe is actually self aware for all we know maybe its all a bunch of shit thats some how manged to create life.

We are but its children, we are what the Universe truly is.

FUCK YOU UNIVERSE, WHY DID YOU NOT PAY FOR MY COLLEGE YOU CHEAP BASTARD.

A complex, enormous reality, with a structure.

Yup.

Like a personality, it's scattered and vast and difficult to truly understand.

Its more like complicated machine, Personality is some thing hat the machine outputs

We are the neurosis of our Universe, the character of its judgment.

Whose we? We the people? or all life forms. Are dogs the neurosis of the universe. what about germs.

Pain is the frightening reality of mixed energy being reshaped against the whole.

No, Pain is a warning signal thats sent your brain when a body part of yours has sustained some sort of damage. :

And the world keeps spinning
And the planet keeps orbiting
And our galaxy keeps floating
And our universe keeps expanding

Постой, паровоз, не стучите, колёса,
Кондуктор, нажми на тормоза.

And we find ourselves approaching infinity wondering if reality can truly inhabit such a concept.

Reality can, Its just that we can't fully understand such a concept.

Could our Universe belong to such a cosmic structure?

Mathematically, yes.

Is infinity the true guiding force of all reality?

Maybe it is, maybe its the universe and everything in it has a main goal and goal is infinity, you know?.

Is reality too small a term to describe all that is?

Why?

Perhaps the better word is "all" .
Endless, unimaginable length.

No, thats reserved as the nickname for my dick

He who places no limit to the boundaries of the Universe.
It began that infinity existed before time.
The origin of matter is basic.
It is merely a filling of that endless boundary.
Forming itself by a code, a law.
The law says nothing can be destroyed nor created, its state merely altered.
But before creation there were different rules.
There was an infinity waiting to erupt.
And it will swallow us whole again.
Returning to its womb, the void which goes on.

I'm fine here thank you.

We will embrace our eternal slumber
In the arms of all energy again.

Sounds kinda gay.

I went through it all. there.

Life is experienced for organisms have receptors. Consciousness is the capability to process signals transmitted by receptors. Imagining is self transmitting.

Why when these chemicals combine does the computation of sensation become reality?

Because you perceive it as reality. These are only neurotransmitters.

Why when the Universe was born without life did the energy mix and twirl through time to form perception?

Probability. No reason.

The self. Is it anything more than a response to stimuli?

It is what it becomes by probability and by chaos.

Can we truly say we have free will when all we do is react by instinct?

Humans defy instincts. Often.

Even when we apply effort, it is still the natural order of the Universe guiding you.

The 'natural order' is filled with chaos.

Is there a meaning to all of this?

No.

But this mind, these neurons processing in our brain -- is reality the chemical producing it or the self experiencing it?

Both.

Are our thoughts real? Or are they just imagination?

Their chemicals are. At least.

We can't read a neural pathway to interpret the thought it produces.

Yet.

Could our Universe belong to such a cosmic structure?

It does.

Is infinity the true guiding force of all reality?

Energy is.
