The Root Node

[Robert L. Vaessen]

Rob -

As I've been trying to point out. There are still things that we 
don't really understand. Quantum Mechanics keeps pointing out 
how little we know about the universe. We've always assumed that 
everything would be explained by a single unified theory.

Our ability to connect the nodes in the probability matrix, are 
limited by our ability to comprehend the matrix. We are only 
able to view the matrix from a single point of view. Our 
consciousness follows a specific path because it must follow a 
set of laws (physics) imposed upon it. Where do these limiting 
laws come from? I don't know. We will continue defining and 
discovering these limitations until we figure out how to 
circumvent them, how to make nodal moves that are currently 
inaccessible to us.

Until then, we will continue to think that these events are 
occurring in a sequential order. Time does not exist, we're just 
incapable of comprehending all the nodes at once.

'When did the universe begin?' - When?
'What happens after you die?' - After?

These questions will continue to be unanswered until we break 
free of our physical limitations (laws of physics). Somewhere in 
the probability matrix is a special node. That node comprises 
the arrangement of matter where our consciousness breaks free 
from it's limitations. Eventually, someone (some consciousness) 
will encounter that node in their path. When that happens they 
will be free to explore all the possibilities of the probability 
matrix.

'Has that happened yet?' - ?

No such thing as time.

More thoughts...

Each probability tree in the Probability Matrix should contain a 
'Root Node' A primary node from which all probabilities 
originate. A probability tree is a series of possible nodal 
connections. Mankind (a collection of similarly constrained 
consciousnesses) inhabits one of the probability trees in the 
probability matrix.

Other trees exist within the probability matrix, but they are 
inhabited by life forms (collections of consciousness) whose 
limitations are different than ours.

There may be nodal connections between these two trees, but only 
where the limitations are compatible.

My brain's starting to hurt.

'Time' to go back to 'Leadership and Management'.
