Nonsense or traipsing close to the truth?

Conscious observation has a symbiotic relationship with the universe. Physical reality doesn't exist the same without conscious interaction thru perception. Our minds are partially projecting the universe thru a quantum feedback loop connected to the brain. Without our ability to lock in space and time in the eternal now, the universe, by itself, only exists as a probability field of fuzzy energy. We are able to experience events separately, rather than simultaneously because our physical bodies are limited containers for this formless energy traveling thru space and time. We are riding on a conscious wave of self-realization from beginning to end. It is the unraveling of energy and matter as evolution reveals the purpose and nature of existence.

Simply put, humans partially create reality through our sensual perception of it. The energy that created the universe has always been but only came into physical being at the instant of creation as the eternal now. Unchanging, with no past or future, inflating every moment to passing moment by expanding from perpetual rest. A singularity of infinite force, turning inside out, so that there is distance and space in between particles in order to allow other things room and movement for existing.
 
Amen to that. I wish I had a dollar every time someone has said, "A singularity of infinite force, turning inside out, so that there is distance and space in between particles in order to allow other things room and movement for existing." So true.
 
Science has discovered, in a close examination of brainwave activity, that we are not even the source of our own thoughts. Even what we think are our own decisions are made before our consciousness thinks we've made them. They "arrive" from we know not where. Our "conscious intelligence" is non-local.

What we falsely believe is our own creativity is merely inspiration - "breathed in" - from outside of us. Those who seem to be the brightest and most creative amongst us are simply those who are, quite literally, "gifted", with more sensitive, more efficient antennas.

Which sort of destroys the whole notion of "intellectual property" - doesn't it?

 

 
Did you write "Give a homeless schizophrenic's treatise on the nature of consciousness" into the ChatGPT prompt?

Got a little lost, didn't you? That's ok, theorizing on complicated subjects isn't for everyone.

You wrote gibberish. Like you, the homeless schizophrenic believes he is making perfect sense.
 
No, you prove it first!

No. You're the one promoting it, and it's nonsense on its face. You have your work cut out for you.
 
Existential mental masturbation.
 
I vote for "Nonsense" as well.

I feel like this thread is earmarked for our good friend @Exquisitor

Should be some painfully fun reading once he joins the discussion.
Sorry Dragonfly, I already passed by.

There didn't seem much to work with, a little existential consciousness, lots of words, but not saying much, if I didn't know the poster I would call it AI.

Not for me, I can hardly read it, surely won't take the time for a slow word for word.

Some of the OP is related to quantum physics which indicates that reality is not defined until it is observed. That part is an interesting topic for discussion.

The speed of light localizes observation, things are constantly falling away from our observation.

The concept can be described in the simple word qualification. Objects appear before you for your qualification and then they fall away to be qualified by others.

But the question, what is observing?

Physics probably also looks like gibberish to you. It isn't your fault you aren't capable of comprehending complicated subject matter.
 

It is apparent the very act of observing a phenomena changes the phenomena being observed:


The question is why?

Give me a link to your suggestion.
 

You sure use a lot of words to say essentially nothing!

It is a very interesting experiment. I used to read a lot on things of the sort. GR, QM, and all that..
Some things we may come to grasp, and some may remain a mystery no matter how hard we try to understand..
