It feels like there's energy coming from nothing.

3 posts in this topic

I've noticed theres a difference in how energy feels in your first hand experience vs how science has chosen to define energy. Like in your first hand experience, it feels as though theres just this spontaneous happening that you did nothing to create and yet exists anyway. It's as though theres energy coming from nothing.

But in physics, energy is described by saying the work done by a constant force is equal to the magnitude of the force multiplied by the displacement along the line of action of the force whilst the force is acting. As a student I've wondered why this definition has been chosen for energy. It's interesting. One thing though, whatever standard you choose for defining something you create an entire framework with circular definitions and you might forget there are circular definitions. 


Hark ye yet again — the little lower layer. All visible objects, man, are but as pasteboard masks. But in each event — in the living act, the undoubted deed — there, some unknown but still reasoning thing puts forth the mouldings of its features from behind the unreasoning mask. If man will strike, strike through the mask! How can the prisoner reach outside except by thrusting through the wall? To me, the white whale is that wall, shoved near to me. Sometimes I think there's naught beyond. But 'tis enough.

Yeah concepts to break down experiences only goes so far. They try to create this infinite causality because if you can see what comes before it you can explain what it is. But then exactly what is the root of it all? Nobody wants to go that deep.

@lmfao precisely.  What you are experiencing is Being.  It cannot be defined. 


 

Wisdom.  Truth.  Love.
