Center of the universe huh? And just where in the heck is that?
We believe that time emerged during the Big Bang and if time can emerge, may disappear as well
The very act of "emerging" is a function of time. It implies there wasn't something and then there was. A measurement. Time is a measurement. So time emerged from... time?
Now I agree that the BB is the beginning of time (as we perceive it!), but all of time already existed, it does not emerge from anything. It has a beginning and an end which are infinitely distant from each other and have always existed within the context of timelessness (which is more fundamental than time). If we can perceive the beginning we can't perceive the end, and vice versa. But I subscribe to an infinite universe while most scientists don't.

Universe by definition means everything - so what ever they find must be part of it. Or are we saying the we are hoping to find *another* everything?
Interesting that the word for everything in existence stems from uni (one) and verse (line) - it seems life is the ultimate one liner.
I prefer that use of the word as well. Universe was a good word for describing everything.. Back in the old days.. Before multiple infinities and multiple everythings.
Eternity was a good word too. Until it became "a long time". I'm sure science has a new word to mean the same thing.. it's more scientific now.
The end of novelty is nigh when you know the only thing left to discover is more confusion.
Indeed there's only so many ways you can cut one into parts of one until you realize no matter how small you cut it you still only have one only now it is broken and pointless ;Pedit on 28/6/2012 by IAmD1 because: (no reason given)
No doubt! Man has worked pretty hard at an attempt to prove separateness. Admitting oneness is scary... Nowhere to escape from oneself!
Nice. flic.kr... everything fits inside the ONE, but in duality choice includes being able to separate ourselves. This is illusion. So is choice illusion? Or a path?edit on 28-6-2012 by Wifibrains because: (no reason given)

Yes they are both my original quotes and mantra of sorts, came to me was in a state of demonic trance. I made the second quote line into a short audio clip that's saved on a memory stick.

My perseptions of time right now:
It's not linear. That's just our warped perseptions due to limited understanding, everything happens at the same time in the same moment. There is always only the immediate moment. If time is a line, and existance is another line. The moment is the point where the 2 lines cross, and one moves along the other(time moves through existanceor vice versa) the moment or point moves. The time line is imaginary, we made it up. Existance is an illusion on a much more grand Devine scale. Both lines therefore are illusion so all that exists is the moment. The truth.edit on 28-6-2012 by Wifibrains because: (no reason given)
