RE: NOVELTY. DOES IT REALLY "EXIST"?
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
When an egg cell and sperm cell fuse together, are they something completely new?
No.
"egg cell" is an abstract ontological fabrication.
"sperm cell" is an abstract ontological fabrication.
All "matter" is energy.
Energy is anti-static, necessarily in transition constantly (in service of the second law of thermodynamics).
There is no such "thing" as an "electron".
An "electron" is a pattern of energy (constantly accepting and releasing "other" energy) that is never exactly in the same "place" at exactly the same "time".
Instead of thinking of "particles" as distinct "points", try to imagine them as "scatter patterns" which leave a long tail through time and pierce into an opaque future, splitting themselves and recombining themselves into various subtle variations and transformations.
A human is also a "scatter pattern".
You are simultaneously your earliest childhood memory.
That is beautifully expressed by you. Yes, I also experience reality in such a way that we cannot pin things down on separate situations and fix them compulsively. The boundaries of what we know and do not know are fluid and not set. Setting is always a deliberate act to be able to make decisions. This is also necessary, but should be accompanied by calm consideration and trust in our potential. Much of what we excitedly wish to change does not require correction. And those things that could be cultivated thoughtfully and wisely, we then neglect as a result of overanxiety and actionism.
I am glad, that you did not say "a human is simply a scatter pattern." Makes a huge difference towards what you've expressed earlier (or later? I lost track:)
Your acknowledgement is appreciated.
