Back after a loooong silence

Before I start, let me tell you that I am not going to take the pains to organize the content I am posting here. In the sense that, well, I might do it sometime later but for now, I am going to keep tweeting my thoughts as posts! So, happy reading.. :)

Hmmm.. here goes. My latest realization after a loooong time of not having thought in depth about 3+ dimensional space for the simple reason that when I had the realization of more dimensional space I was pretty convinced that I had sort of understood the concept really really well and there is pretty much nothing more to explore! But then.. it looks like it was a great blunder to have believed so!! Because, only of late, while trying to find the limits of logic (which is in itself a funny thing for obvious reasons!) I realized that more dimensional space actually helps in rooting the funda required for it and more over that the initial thought I had about more dimensional space was wrong and what more? There are quite a number of theories and explanations spinning off from this new and better understanding of more dimensional space!

So here goes.. I initially thought more dimensional space is out of reach for us since we are 3 dimensional in nature in the sense that all the senses, i.e., touch, sight, hearing, feeling (perhaps?!), thought, etc. is primarily 3 dimensional. But then I have been trivially wrong! Because, .. well before that, the reason for this is that, there is this intuitively and perhaps logically correct premise that "anything outside of a system cannot be described from within the system". So, now, because, according to the above stated premise, it can be concretely concluded that it is true for our sense of touch, sight and hearing. Oh well, I missed out smell and I don't know what dimension it would fall under but wait, I think I know because.. there is this concept that matter is 3 dimensional! Anyway, let me quickly get to the point now. So it is true for our sense of touch, sight and hearing. But then, if it were true for thought, then how is it that we are able to think of more dimensions?! So here comes the blow which led me to reconsider my initial notion. Let me get to the most interesting implication of this to add color to the discussion!

Physical matter which scientists believe composes the universe is 3 dimensional.
Thought is more dimensional.. in fact infinite dimensional! (Since we are able to think of infinite dimensions!)
So thought is something non-physical.
However, thought is related to physical matter in that thought exists where the brain exists!

It is getting late and thinking more right now makes me sleepy! I think I have got down most of the crux of my latest insights here. So, cya until next time I get into a mood for writing something up!!

Njoy :)

Coming up soon....

My experience of how I happened to chance upon the new (to me) idea of spatial dimensions more than the three that we experience (see, hear, feel, think, ....) and the observations that I made through the most intriguing and enthralling journey of unraveling the mysteries of the Maya that we have created and submerged ourselves into along with a few beautiful unanswered questions which form the most important part of the conclusions that arose from this deep thought will be updated here soon. Hold your breath, those who understand or want to understand the nature and behavior of space.
