Fractals!

a reply to: FyreByrd

This is probably why everything in the universe can be explained one way or another with math. The universe is the result of an infinitely complex math equation.

Where is math "computed"? Inside your brain. Where is the universe? Inside your brain. "As within, so without".

We're all infinite parts of infinity, this is walking our walk and at the baby stage, we go back and forth in goodness for a while, but we also have Higher Self/Infinite Self, and Source.

We're a projection of our infinity. But its all at once.

We are the universe experiencing itself..

3NL1GHT3N3D1, great thread and very interesting concept - Bill Hicks said as much back in the 90s.

“Today a young man on acid realized that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, that we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively, there is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves.”

Don't know if you've seen it but this fractal doco featuring Arthur C Clarke is also well worth a watch and brings up some of the concepts you mention.

Arthur C. Clarke presents this unusual documentary on the mathematical discovery of the Mandelbrot Set (M-Set) in the visually spectacular world of fractal geometry. This show relates the science of the M-Set to nature in a way that seems to identify the hand of God in the design of the universe itself.

Oh wow! That thing looks like it would go good in a salad or with ranch by itself. Its almost to visually appealing to eat. Now I have to get and try one.

Here is one of my favorite edible fractals,the Romanesque Caauliflower:

Interesting thread!

A Fibonacci spiral!!

Fractals in nature are approximate and finite. Math is used to describe, not explain.

all this "the universe is inside us" meaninglessness is refuted the moment you go outside. Such fallacy-laden notions simply do not work in the real world, and such snake-oil should be labelled as snake-oil before it is served to others.

So your only argument is that we can walk outside? Nice. Thank you for your deep analysis of the concept I presented.
