[quote:Anonymous Coward 728812:MV84NzI1OTBfMTM1MTIxODVfQTcxMEYxMjI=] [quote:chaol 183770] I do think that there is something special in prime numbers, although my thoughts on it are incomplete and might not sound coherent to others, however I will try. As unlikely as it may sound, the OP's answer was along the lines of my own work. Symmetry of numbers goes a lot deeper than one might at first imagine, on exploration, numbers and "components" of numbers exhibit symmetry of different types, not just reflection symmetry. The number nine is important in this concept, and the multiples of nine, e.g. 36. 36 would "interact" with another number creating symmetry at a different scale to that of 9. Fibonacci is manifest in the numbers in extraordinary ways and while it is true that the "mechanism" is simple the manifestation of the Fibonacci patterns is very, very deep, a kind of attractor, so to speak. I am over time, through effort "internalising" the Fibonacci numbers and their patterns. I asked of the OP's perspective, so that I my experience my own ideas in relation to his. Hello! We can make the mistake and think that numbers are the absolute truth. Or we can think that numbers are simply representations. The apparent "absolution" of the numbers to us (and the beauty of the relationships, the symmetry) is because it is most relative to our perspective. You could say that it is a cognitive bias. Everything has symmetry and what would be called "prime numbers" (or prime relationships). It is just that the concept of numbers is so ingrained in our reality that we can see this more readily. Thanks. [/quote] Hello OP, yes agreed, the exploration of prime numbers is a way amongst ways to understand relationships. The numbers are abstract concepts and not absolute, and we may experience meaning with the relationship between these abstractions leading to a greater understanding. Thanks. [/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.
