If only he was alive today my god I can't even fathom how different our society would be today. He is talking so mystical and it's so inspiring.

If you notice carefully life is always in a state of flux/ movement. Events, the mind, the body, the earth, the universe, everything, seems to be moving . Nothing is static.

2:30
The idea of being driven is the idea of causality.
The past is created by the present.
Past event came into being in the present and out of present.

7:30
There are no separate events. It's like water.
They are all activities.

Every thing can be spoken of as an event.
Events flow into each other.
Therefore, we don't need causality to explain prior events influencing following events.

11:12
All events are one event, one continuous event.
You are not a puppet.

Sounds come out of silence, out of vibration.

Sight appears static and still, but it comes out of vibration. Light comes out of space, as sound comes out of silence.

Both sound and sight come at you and echo into the past.

Thanks Alan. 30 June 2024. 🍄🌏☘️😆☘️🦩🤲🌹🦒💐💗

physicists now think time is an illusion, albeit a convincing and useful one, but will one day be replaced with something more sophisticated

[ludovictrottier]

Small correction on what he said: the sun does not burn in flames because there is no oxygen in space. It is in fact the sum of many fusion reactions caused by the extreme gravitational force of its incredibly large mass of Hydrogen. Hydrogen fuses into Helium, then Lithium, then Beryllium, up the periodic table, each time generating energy in the form of heat and light. This energy is radiated through space to Earth and, upon reaching our body, gives us a warm sensation similar to a fire.

I do feel time is an illusion in that there is only the present. But what is the present. As something is happening, which moment of it happening is the present. Maybe it is there is only our perception of the future and our memory of what we term the past. Equally isn't our view of the present something that is not standing still. we want to define it as a single moment but it is in flux. And it all comes down to what we are perceiving and interpreting in an instant in our minds. But what is an instant. Isn't it a conundrum. Oh damn, I just confounded myself.

[frankmosses]

I haven't felt driven for many years, my x and a couple of bad employers has comply beaten the give a damn and drive right out of me. Its been 8 years and it's still gone. The current world events are not helping. So I wake up have my coffee, muddle away the day and go to bed to do it again.

[riddhimasharma]

but in this flow of events, what one does in the present moment determines their future..because we are conscious beings so we always hv a choice in every given situation...so how can we say that our present is not determined by our past? can someone please explain? thanks

[einsamturm]

Sorry, but time is made up of discrete events which have a duration measured in plank time units (5.39119 x 10 *-44 seconds). So time is not continuous.

Oh my God! That music in the background! What's kind if environment is it to create? Background to a horror movie, is it? And what does it oissibly have to do with the topic? Sorry i cannot stay ...
