We know nothing about the world
How much do you think we know about reality in the 21st century?
I’ll tell you – terrifyingly little.
In fact, the only thing modern scientists do like some “jungle people” is just “picking” and stating facts: “Aha! The apple fell!”, “Fantastic! This molecule divided!”, “Wow! Those stars are so far from here!”.
Millions of books on collecting facts and extensive use of them are written, lots of universities and laboratories are built and the number of people working with facts is barely countable!
And the point is that all these efforts are aimed at nothing more, but statement of facts, understanding them and using complete with other facts, - that’s all.
That’s just all and nothing more. Humans have gathered loads of facts, but have they found a single cause of if? We look at one side of this “universal conspiracy” but why don’t we try to define the genesis of it all?
“The apple fell” – “Why?” – “Because of gravity” – “How does it work?” – “Heavier bodies attract lighter ones” – “Why is it so?”, and this chain of the following questions may be endless, yet there must be a starting point. Otherwise we can play this game forever, but gravity in itself is just another written fact as well as the fallen apple, but why does it happen? What “Great Programmer” has written this code? Why do things work exactly the way they do? For scientists, these are the toughest and most inconvenient questions that, if taken seriously, will prove that a human is no paragon of animals, but a species having lost its place in this world.
I want to show life from the other side, the side of freedom from dry scientific dogmas, where we are free and there is a “real we”* in this freedom.
- About 90% of our Universe is composed of dark matter, meaning that we perceive only 1/10 of the whole of reality! Maybe even less, much less than that, since our “knowledge”, institutions, conceptions and developments are just cosmic dust, too tiny, yet extremely important.
Just think of it – only 10%! Knowing nothing about the rest 90% of the Universe I don’t have the heart to say, “I know how the world works, so this or that is a lie and pseudoscience”, this would be quite a silly and shallow judgment!
- Do you know that about 20% of DNA is called “junk DNA”? It is called so, just because geneticists don’t know the purpose of those DNA-components! Earlier 90% of DNA had been considered to be noncoding (junk) before geneticists found the connection between those DNA-components and some biochemical processes. After that the percentage of noncoding DNA sharply decreased, but we still don’t know all their functions, besides a percentage is a rather subjective term, so nobody knows what may stand behind the rest 20%.
Not 70, 80 or 90, but just a few percent of DNA separates a human from an ape, and the realization of it makes me sleepless at night - what stands behind 20%? What if “the key of evolution” is hidden in that “junk”?
Scientists work hard to figure it out (special thanks to them), and the most important thing is not to fall into the trap of subjectiveness and scientific dryness, for if we know nothing about the world, then how can we call any theory a pseudo theory? Experience, real experience is what we should draw from in our judgments and nothing else.
- You know, I can go on talking about that, but let’s have a look at one more interesting fact, shall we?
Reality we perceive is a combination of signals sent by our sensory organs to our brain. The brain processes those signals and produces “an image of reality”, in which not the real world, but our imagination is reflected, which in turn can vary under certain circumstances and thereby change our reality.
Routine is the only protection from inner change, it helps maintaining “stable reality” and safe living within an illusion, where one is guided by precise understanding of what is right or wrong.
Have you ever heard about people who can see sounds? It’s not a joke, they’re real, well, of course their ability is considered to be a disease, but as a matter of fact it’s just their special perception of reality that differs from ours, so if you say those people have hallucinations, I say - you have no more arguments, than they do, since you can’t be so sure your hallucinations are more real than theirs just because your hallucinations are mass.
(That's the way the picture is Melissa McCracken, she sees sounds and played the song "Prince – Joy In Repetition", it is called Synaesthesia)
The whole world is a hallucination produced by our brains, and if we don’t go beyond the mind and don’t see a crystal-clear stream of universal consciousness, we won’t have a reason to argue about reality itself, since we won’t be right from the very beginning.
Thank you for your time. Based on the above, only one thing can be said for sure: “The world around us still remains a great mystery, we barely know anything about it and we are aware of only a small part of it, but this awareness raise even more questions and states facts, but doesn’t explain their origins. We must keep developing ourselves to cognize reality, because at the moment all the arguments and ideas are just talking about light and scenery between blind people. We should open up our eyes and start living, take a step to the next stage of human evolution, and to do that we must accept just one fact – we know nothing about the world”.
Nothing
