Stavebranes

To implement inversion tactics ( counterintuition ) start at any base level.  For instance, we think of the universe as being enormous, therefore it must really be the size of a singular pinpoint: an atom, perhaps (for example).  We feel the vastness of space all about us with galaxies whirling into the deep far distances until presumably (according to the unflinching stare of the Hubble lens) we've glimpsed almost as far back as the beginning of time to what we think of as the Big Bang; therefore:  no space exists at all and this thing we're seeing remains inside us, fixed in absolute stillness, and what we're observing  is more likely forward to the ends of the multiverse which may resemble something more along the lines of a sudden embodiment.  The thing to understand is that speculation along these lines, while it may appear to amount to an exercise in futility—due to the  apparent  necessity of  continuing  to flip the inversions—the point remains that we must als

Humans have been dwelling around a  Population One star  for longer than memory can hold. Population Zero stars (by extension and in my fanciful imagination) include all the yet-to-be-born or much younger stars, either still forming or in the galactic process of preparing to give birth to their respective spinning systems; in other words, all the extraterrestrial civilizations potentially out there will naturally come to follow in the wake of our own existence. In a world where travel to other populated stars and their planetary colonies remains a challenging consideration to say the least (or perhaps merely an unreachable dream) there may linger a contiguous possibility of contact with beings yet to manifest in spacetime. It involves the crucial matter of continuing to survive. Talk about getting ahead of ourselves. Never mind. The way forward involves  lucid dreaming . Consider the irony that our dream to reach the stars, while potentially not practical in the physical sense, might

Think of a magnet. Imagine countless iron filings. Consider each iron filing as representing a universe. Now think about what we know of quantum mechanics. Take a moment to realize its inherent counter-intuitiveness. Understand that we each actually create our own realities. Ask yourselves:  what is your own reality, if not a universe unto itself? Think about how we must each individually die alone. What is this planet we all dwell on, if not a giant magnet ? Who are we individually — if not avatars from our own separate domains Intermingling here in concert together A symphonic reality converging our separate personal worlds Commingling right here and now into what appears to us as One. Welcome to the Multiverse .  You are hearing me tell you this because We have just made extra-terrestrial contact . Think about this the next time you talk to anyone. Because we all manage to cross space and time With every interaction here on Earth — And actually ma

We must all strive to share a mutual perspective on the fecundity of the question "Is there any such thing as alien life?"  If our own ideas of where we stand on the great cosmic scale of existence were to expand themselves to consider our home as being merely identified as the greater set of the entire universe, then all life within said parameters might suddenly become not so alien to us, after all.   We should each be able to see that the question of whether or not there is alien life out there and what it might be are indeed two separate and thorny questions, and our situation here seems to be in the habit of lumping them together as if they were one and the same question.  Ah,  "To be, or not to be..." When we participants of this discussion all agree to stick with the spirit of the question, and then decide we mean any sentient species that happens to exist upon other planets , we put ourselves in the position wherein we may necessarily exclude the term

Deep down I believe we're unique.  By definition, that would also indicate that the concept of alien life may be exactly that —just a  concept. In fact this appears to be the recurrent theme, here. Everything we think we know about ourselves and our planet are just concepts. And then there's the real world awaiting us to discover it every remaining moment of our lives.  Because according to my belief — all life in the cosmos is, by definition, connected —everything in this universe including ourselves are o ne and the same; and furthermore, a fraction of the continuing whole.  Both of the terms 'alien' and 'extraterrestrial' are quaint presuppositional phrases in this context, that in a sense, lay their card down on the tabletop before later being trumped by the discovery that all life in the cosmos remains interrelated.  Now if perusers of the originally intended concept of 'alien' want to point out that its a matter of semantics, this is where t

If you want to understand the multiverse its easy: understand the life we've led here on this planet amid forests and sea shores, nations and people.  Simply step back mentally and take it all in. A crucial fact about the multiverse: it doesn't need to be imagined. This is it. Our comprehension of the context of its nature and how it relates to us needs to be modified  if we think of the multiverse being comprised in any other way than the crickets, continents, oceans, elm trees, coyotes, June bugs, lightning storms, auto dealers, hurricanes, rain forests, star light, earthquakes, evening tides, scattered sunsets and erupting volcanoes along with everything else we know about nature receding back into a blurry molten stream of memories. If we imagine the multiverse to be any different than our world and this universe, then we're straying from its essence. Take a look around you. Welcome to the multiverse. We're experiencing it by definition and for us, there's no
