How I explain reality

[Theplay]

Just recently I have written a short book consisting of three chapters: Self, Reality, Other.

I wanted to share the second part with you.

 

Part 2 - Reality

Occam's razor is the view that the most simple explanation is to be chosen if a few theories are compared.
But what if no explanation is needed?
Is it not the ultimate conclusion to Occam's razor? Or the perfection of it?
This is reality.
If you take it all in. Just as it is. With no explanation what so ever. You are at ground zero. You are the closest to an explanation of reality that you can get.
Everything makes sense.
And nothing here to explain.
What does an explanation do?
How do we explain something?
We break it into parts or say its a part of a bigger whole. We find causes to the situation we want to explain. We say this explains that. But what explains the explanation?
At some point the mind is just satisfied.
It reaches a point of understanding which needs no farther explanation.
Why could we not reach that point without taking any steps?
See reality as self explanatory.
Why is it that the more complicated a theory of reality is the more the mind is satisfied?
Because it is habitually accustomed to think and make ideas.
When something is making it simply stop its habitual processes it denies it.
As long as you keep using the mind to explain reality you will fail.
You will only get lost in thought and concept.
And when you think you have succeeded, all of your imagined castle will crumble because of a paradox or contradiction.
It is simply because you are attempting the impossible.
You try to satisfy a need and not get to the truth.
The truth is simple.
Reality as it is.
No additions.
No explanations.
That is the theory of everything.
No theory.
Just.
This.

Well said. Even though it's still just an explanation, but I love it.

Infinity is impossible to explain by definition. You would need an infinite explanation. You can perceive yourself in all your depth, that's the only explanation.
