What are the ramifications for our perception of reality if there is no time, and past present and future are all happening "now?"

like the phases of water, as vapor, liquid or solid, are versions (with different properties) of the same stuff under certain conditions? I would have used the more formal philosophical term *substance in lieu of the term *stuff if it could have fitted in the Q-box. As it is, I had to use texting tricks.

I ask the Q bec I am wondering how we should think of the mixtures of matter and energy that compose the diversity of things we perceive and believe to exist in the universe we tenuously inhabit.

This Q touches on one of the major concerns of metaphysics and modern science.

Something mysteriously formed,
Born before heaven and Earth.
In the silence and the void,
Standing alone and unchanging,
Ever present and in motion.
Perhaps it is the mother of ten thousand things.
I do not know its name
Call it Tao.
For lack of a better word, I call it great.

Being great, it flows
I flows far away.
Having gone far, it returns.

Therefore, "Tao is great;
Heaven is great;
Earth is great;
The king is also great."
These are the four great powers of the universe,
And the king is one of them.

Man follows Earth.
Earth follows heaven.
Heaven follows the Tao.
Tao follows what is natural.

My idea is to compare colors to the human chakra energy systems, which are based on wavelengths and colors. So, the blind person could "feel the color" in their chakra energy centers.

1st chakra center corresponds to : Red

2nd: orange

3rd: yellow

4th: green

5th: blue

6th: lavender, purple

7th: white

Colors are about wavelengths, which a blind person can feel but not see. In the chakras, they can feel the wavelength with its corresponding color. So, they must have ideas about colors from their chakras.


Any other ideas about how to do it using wavelengths as examples?

For myself I would be looking at a reflection, but I always wonder is the image accurate. Thinking about a dirty window, looking out it the images you can see look fine, but after cleaning the window the images may look very diffrent although its the same image. So is the reflection I see an acurate image of myslef. Cameras offer a better option to see yourself but again, its still a refelction.

Better to stop short than fill to the brim.
Oversharpen the blade, and the edge will soon blunt.
Amass a store of gold and jade, and no one can protect it.
Claim wealth and titles, and disaster will follow.
Retire when the work is done.
This is the way of heaven.

It's true... words are empty, meaningless. They simply say what you are feeling but they cannot convey it, nor truly invoke or portray those feelings inside of you.

While words cannot truly portray emotion, they have the ability to provoke anger, passion, sadness, joyfulness and even love. Even then though, they are not truly giving you the feeling and experience of such emotion, yet they provoke such a thing to let you experience for yourself.


I wrote this myself :)
