What is the nature of reality. What is Mathematics.


Recommended Posts

How could we know until we understand consciousness? I don't think any symbol is real.

How can it be that mathematics, being after all a product of human thought which is independent of experience, is so admirably appropriate to the objects of reality?

Albert Einstein…

One evening a few years ago, I was with friends from the college at the backyard of the college, and talking about the relationship between science and mathematics. One of my friends’ friends made a comment, “Science does not explain objects, it just describes them.” That made me utterly surprised because I was pretty sure that mathematics and science were the best languages to explain what is happening in the universe.

BRIAN BUTTERWORTH: We’ve pinpointed an area of the human brain where there’s a specialist neural network that responds to counting the number of objects in a set. This area of the brain can recognize numbers across modalities. In other words, it can recognize three cats, three tones or three wishes. A similar area in the brain of the monkey does the same job. We even discovered the guppy — a small fish with a tiny brain — has one system for detecting small sets of up to four objects and one for larger sets. My argument is that we evolved a brain-based system for detecting and comparing the number of items in groups. Humans have developed symbolism for these numbers and elaborated on them to create the kinds of mathematics that Max and Simeon need to describe the universe. Numbers are not necessarily a property of the universe, but rather a very powerful way of describing some aspects of the universe.

Which leads to a large question, that is debated in the Philosophy of Mathematics. are numbers invented or discovered.
Personally I would say created since it is a symbolic language. Symbols only mean what we say hey mean. So if numbers are created and don't xist except as concepts then Mathematics and indeed all of science is on an ephemeral foundation. 

While you may think the answer is obvious one way or the other , it has not been proven and may not be provable.

The Brain in a Vat is one of the biggest question in Philosophy. 
Basically if we lived in a world like the Matrix it would be artificial yet feel real to us. And we would have little way of know it isn't real unless we could break or bend fundamental laws of that system.

In Hindu literature life or reality is called Maya which translates as  illusion.

Many mystical or shamanic practices are founded on the ability to break into another reality or place that exist outside of our normal experience. Priests, Rabbis and Iman also serve this function in organised religion.

Come on man, why are you listening to these Caucasians on the "nature of reality"????
You can't trust them to tell the truth about THIS world, let alone any other.....lol.

Both.
Invented by US (original people)  and discovered by THEM (Caucasians)....as usual.

We taught them mathematics.

I would say that the Priest, Rabbis and Imams actually DISCOURAGE the practices  of mysticism.
 

The Abrahamic religions are for the most part opposed to mysticism and shamanism  and consider them "witchcraft".
They warn their adherent to avoid things like contacting spirits or working with magic.
They want you to put your faith in THEM.

BTW, "mysticism" and "shamanism" are Caucasian terms for the various practices of the ORIGINAL peoples before the Caucasians came with their Abrahamic "faith based" religions and tricked many of our people or forced them into conversion.

You didn't answer my previous question....sir.

And as for your previous post.
Just because it's a part of HIndu literature doesn't mean it's NOT by Caucasians.

If you are aware of the history of HInduism you know that Vedic scriptures were introduced to the original Black people of India BY the Caucasian Aryans, thousands of years ago.


Many of those who are in high positions in Hinduism ARE Caucasian Brahman Indians
