My parents decided not to expect me to join a temple or church. They admitted they didn’t know anything definitive about God and The Universe. Some of the last things they said to me (before they died) suggested that they hadn’t found their truth about the ultimate. They asked me then what I had found …
Does Time Exist [part 1]
Does Time Exist? Does what we think of as TIME, the duration between each of our samplings of the universe, really exist? I like to start with the Uncertainty Principle, posited by Werner Heisenberg. To me, UNCERTAINTY (short for this principle) refers to PERSPECTIVE. What we mean by PERSPECTIVE is the formal method we use …

April 27, 2018 Z: Zero
