[/quote] To follow up, these relationships [u]are[/u] your reality. You don't remember something because it's stored in your brain. You remember it because of the mental and physical map of representations that you are working with. Nothing else "exists" besides the relationships between one representation to every other. ([i]Nothing[/i]) This is somewhat a paradox because the representation is not real, per se. But the [i]relationship[/i] between one thing to another makes it real*. Ever have a memory of something that "didn't happen"? Or deja vu? The relationships create and re-create your memories and experience, at every moment. Most times you don't even know when your memory has changes, because there is correlation with the rest of your representations (artefacts, friends, etc.) We can take relationships from home with us when we move or go to work (by living in the mental map, so to speak). Find new representations (mentally and physically), and you've found a new reality. *[b]There is a gem in there more important than Einstein's famous mass–energy equivalence. [/b]It takes us back to the 'beginning of the universe' when there were no representations to the end, and everything in between. The enterprising mind will find out what it is! (Or not.) [/quote] Just for the hell of it, let's figure out this "[i]gem[/i]." :lflash: He made the statement one time to figure out the origin of our existence. I think this "[i]gem[/i]" is related. How did we first start using geogrpahy of relationships? After all, we don't exist unless we observe!!!!!!!! :popcorn: [/quote] What is it [i]exactly[/i] that [b]you[/b] think he is trying to say here? [/quote]

Hello!
I have been living in this world for some time now.
I came from a place also named Earth, much like this planet. There are a number of differences between my home and yours.
I thought it would be interesting to share a few things with you that are relatively common knowledge where I am from. My reasons for doing so will probably be more apparent in the future.
* Consciousness does not exist (but relationships do)
* Matter is gravity that has been structured
* We are not human (we are perspectives)
* When the totality of something cannot be grasped, it appears infinite.
* Space is not physical
* There is no "now" or "here", but relationships.
We use a kind of language like you use numbers here. Numbers, representations of abstract concepts, were 'invented' to work more easily with the world around us. Our language is no different.
If it were invented today it would probably be thought of as existing in parallel with science. A new kind of science.
This language also enables the shifting of perspective like a kind of mental technology. Some of you may find it quite interesting.
If anyone is interested in learning more please let me know.
Thanks.
