Nobody above ground is done suffering.
Time does exist. I know this because two objects cannot be in the same place at the same time.
If block time isn’t real then send me your bitcoins.
"While I appreciate the playful challenge, I think I'll hold onto my bitcoins for now! Let's keep the conversation going about the fascinating world of blockchain instead. 🚀💬 #CryptoTalk"
Well, on that cheery note.
Too much Russian literature? ☕🫂
Desperate to resolve the paradox, humanity has engaged in thousands of years of learning from the past and planning for the expected future seemingly hacking the system and controlling the ephemeral now.
*transformation.
And love
suffering sucks
Without time there would be no Newton 2nd law, nor the law of thermodynamics nor Bitcoin.
The real choice is - would you rather suffer with Bitcoin or not exist at all 😉
I disagree.
Speaking of tenses, the past is gone you can reflect upon it and repent if necessary.
The future is known by God and what will happened is decreed.
The present is precious, it can be all what you have. So you may do for your thereafter as if today is your last day and do for your future as if you will live forever, as Ali said (son-in-law and cousin of prophet Mohamed peace be upon him).
Time is not easy to understand. God, Allah, defined himself as « Time ».
i think of time as a vertical spiral not a line. where vertically stacked points on that spiral are very similar if you live through them.
but i also think only humans can experience time as a spiral. for an ape in the wild, time is just a circle that goes around and around as they don't have the ability to influence it and can't make it better (an upward spiral) or worse (a downward spiral).
also for humans the spiral can take 100 years to clock back a full round, for other creatures, it spans few years at most.
so in short. you can relive your past if you live long enough 😁
and that's why the idea of living forever is retarded.
Time is a perceptual notion. This is akin to saying heat doesn't exist or the color green doesn't exist. While they can be obscured through managed perception, they exists as perceptual notions.
I bookmarked this years ago and visiting from time to time.
Leben heißt Leiden.
-Buddha
All is flux
As Buddha said: life is suffering. It implies inpermanence and the lack of permanent existents of phenomena. It is not dumpness.
*from nothing to nothingness
Love is opening yourself up in spite of the inevitable suffering that will hit you as a consequence, so yes.
Hi, it's @jack mallers as you may know, I'm trying something new and reaching out to my fans directly, but my official account is managed by my team, so I had to create a private account to do that. I want to cut through the noise and connect with some real people, and you're the first.
The whole interview is interesting
Interesting.
Simulation Theory has come to the same paradox. It’s a mathematically proven theory that space-time very likely doesn’t exist. So then what DOES fundamentally exist?
Awareness.
And the impressions we receive of space-time upon our awareness are therefore a mysterious “simulation” of space and time.
So our existence is (and from first principles SEEMS) real, but the external & even internal impressions we perceive as our existence, do not in fact exist.
How to end suffering and enjoy life? 👍
Typical for philosophy gone over the top LOL
Suffering is a choice we consciously have to make, not a requirement @Gigi
Some time ago I wrote a poem about nothingnessless.
That was before ₿
Could somebody pls explain this? It sounds interesting!
Suffering is just resistance to what is.
The only real thing is frequency, the vibe.
This is something everyone eventually discovers on their own, but they assume they are somehow wrong because "physics" and "math". Time is the link between physics and math, and time does not exist the same way math never represents anything physical other than our perception of reality.
My head right now: How long are we suffering, without time? 🤣
Why so pessimistic?
Reach out to someone if you need help.
Existence is a continuum, and time is the expression of the potential for change.
No time? No hope
No time? Nothing to look forward to
No time? No freedom, as everything is predestined
I hope you see life differently. At least your famous book transpires hope
Just today I read something interesting about our brains.
we suppose to literally live in a hallucination. Our brains predict things as a defense mechanism. If sensors readings (senses) doesn't match those predictions the brain start to freak out.
here is the article in czech:
Tanec v zrcadlovém sále: Manuál k demontáži vašeho já
To, co právě teď vnímáte, není skutečnost. Je to jen nejpravděpodobnější, mozkem generovaná simulace, jejímž jediným úkolem je udr...
Imagine you there
Stop thinking
and be aware
You are not alone
but all one 🫂
🧘
now i feel better
Maybe the answer is time is forever…
Time is an illusion of this density of the universe.
The only real thing is the One Infinite Creator.

Stop being so German.
Wow, didn't expect that line to look so similar to my name
So achieving nirvana means you become timeless, like a photon
Miss listening to you @johnkvallis hope you and your family are well and thriving! 🧡
