Starting points:

*  To understand, a mind must become a perfect clone of the universe. Every vibration and scale must be copied to infinite precision.  Any other idea is lacking detail and is abstraction.  All thought and language is abstraction.

*  The universe is a fractal built on interference patterns between waves of energy

----
Ready set go:


  • Thoughts are effects of reality.  Objective (assume) reality comes by and resonates in the mind, crossing and interfering with its past self and gets spit up as whatever we do with it.

    That's an important pattern.  Is it also how the universe is made?  Is the mind the universe?  Must come back to that.

  • I'm thinking of it like an echo in a cave parking garage.  The sound is repeated with decreasing quality.  But it's repeated.  Repeated.

  • As time goes on, complexity in the system increases and energy decreases.

    There's another important pattern.  It's repeated in nature and might explain our existence.

  • Energy allows complexity.  Complexity requires energy.  Energy is converted to complexity.  There's great potential for a cycle there.

    So--WTF.  Is thought abstraction?  Maybe not.  It's more like yelling in a bathroom or parking garage--just like everything else?  O.O  

  • Maybe abstraction doesn't exist.  If information is tied to energy, and energy is conserved, perhaps all information is eternal?  Whoa. . . getting ahead of myself . . .

  • OH!  Dimension and relativity is important.  To an individual, the limitations of the mind mean events are unpredictable.  The individual.  

  • The individual is important.  In the bigger picture, there may be no abstraction.  To the individual, there might be.  Or something like that.

  • Penguins are cool.

i find this concept interesting
