To think, we spend so much of our time fighting and destroying each other on one little tiny planet against the backdrop of something ridiculously enormous.
-
That's the curse of humanity, endlessly seeking for answers but every bit of them brings up new questions, it's an endless cycle.
-
I’ve always enjoyed the idea that consciousness is simply a means by which the universe can experience itself
-
“The gods abandoned us a long time ago” is such an eerie sentence.
-
Thanks! Another existential crisis was exactly something I needed before going to bed :)
-
i vividly remember being about 7-8 years old and thinking: if the universe is expanding, what is beyond that edge where it hasn’t expanded to? it’s just a big void forever? explains my anxiety as an adult 😂

To have order, there must be an Orderer. Man looks around at all the things he has made, yet man says to the tree, "Nothing made you."

It takes real skill to make a story that is amazing and mind boggling and fascinating but also at the same time TOTALLY SAD AND DEPRESSING. I read a comic strip joke in FOR BETTER OR FOR WORSE some years ago where a little girl said "I did not know that there could be such a thing as a sad miracle".

I HAVE THOUGHT ABOUT THIS BEFORE! we are just the universe reflecting on itself over and over again in a circle
-
Consciousness is an observant force within a finite universe. When you play a simulation the hardware is not changed but the software feeds you a series of data based on the choices you make which creates the illusion of interaction.
-
The universe is under no obligation to make sense to us.
-
I look into the mirror at my own face. I begin to cry… I say to myself “I will miss you for I will never be able to see you ever again nor I will remember this life I’m currently living. May your soul and consciousness be happy for all eternity. You will always be loved”.

this channel is hands down the best space, science, astronomy, psychology and reality channel ever on YouTube
-
That feeling in my stomach scares me yet the thought of a higher being gives me peace i hope n i tell myself to carrry that peace until the end don’t be scared

The universe seems to have a way of holding a mirror up to our attempts to find its defining features. Look at black holes, the edge of the universe, quantum uncertainty, even consciousness. We just can't get solutions in a familiar framework. It's so mysterious!
-
What an amazing thought experiment. This story reminds me a lot of the egg theory where the perceived goal of consciousness is also to mature. Thank you for constantly bringing us amazing stories and life lessons. I have learned so much from this channel and it has helped tremendously with my fear of death, fear of making mistakes, and so much more.

But still we are stuck on the question that 'from where did the matter came for the first time ?'
