The faster you go to catch light the slower your watch gets … and the more your mass increases towards infinity, and space shrinks towards nothing.
What does this mean?
When light becomes the absolute, and not your Rolex, the quicker you go to try and catch light the more obvious it gets that you are just standing still because all you are really doing is staying stationary while you are slowing your watch, and increasing your mass, as the speed of light stays the same because it has no time to change.
It’s all absurd ON TOP OF BEING ABSURD (… absurd ) but only if we try and make physics and its light and time “real” when they are just words, Reality’s fiction that we call thoughts.

If you want to start laughing at the all these absurdities on top of absurdities that physics gives us you will have to ignore physics’ particles/waves and focus your attention on what all physicists seem to ignore to keep their wild-goose chase active: the quantum-gap.
The quantum-gap (UV-gap) is the Absolute that Hindus call Atman, Samadhi, and the particles/waves are just thoughts/gooses to chase.

If you want to read more then try a Google blog-search for “advaita = physics” or universe-vanishing-gap "UV-gap."

When you start Laughing
it will be because you are Awake
and the laughter is just ME
and the joke is: there is no other.
that's really interesting.

i think the reason i had problems with that is because i don't take either light or time to be the absolute. i just look at them in relation to each other. also light is actually traveling across space and through time. it takes a few minutes for photons to get to the Earth from the Sun...and its traveling across a distance. if you took off from the Earth at light speed for the sun, your watch wouldn't change anything, because its attached to your body and moving at light speed with you. time everywhere else that is not going at light speed with you is moving slowly. but you aren't standing still. you're moving across a physical distance. i don't even think its possible for anything other than photons and stuff to move at c.

at least that's what i thought.

is there an equation to calculate that? anybody? like...if it takes 8 minutes or whatever for light to reach the Earth from the Sun. how much time passed by from the perspective of the photons of light in that same distance?

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
