I'm enjoying these, Mr. Kuhn, and for a seemingly committed Deist, you seem to have a reasonably open mind, and are asking good questions. But at the end of this one....well, jeez, here we are, back again, at the basic confusion:
The speck of greenish mold on a discarded orange: The one imagining that the orange, and the tree which produced it, and the 4 billion-year-old earth on which it evolved, and the sea, and the light from the sun -- an average star and one of half a trillion, in a galaxy which is one of a trillion trillion trillion -- were all put here for the benefit -- and Enlightenment -- of the speck of fungus on the orange.
But neither our observations nor our understanding is required. It'd be nice if we got it all figgered before our species disappears -- but if we don't?
Oh well. Life -- or the absence of it -- goes on.
We'd dearly LOVE to be more Important -- which creates our blinding bias: We can't imagine an Answer unless it includes Us, to ask the Question.
That doesn't mean that I'm not a fan of the series.
But if I wasn't? That wouldn't matter much, either.
David Gross "...the questions are almost as interesting often than the answers, and questions are almost as difficult to discover as the answers to those questions. So, I have no illusion that I can imagine all the questions that people will be asking a hundred years from now, and therefore this could go on forever. On the other hand, it might end. Who knows?"
Just please don't send it to Sabine.
@@bozo5632 Sabine is a physicist but at much lower level in comparison to Michio and other leading physicists. My brother-in-law has multiple post-PhDs and teaches physics at multiple universities around the world but he is still consider himself to be a long long way off the greatest minds in physics. RUclips is great for everyone to learn from the greatest minds but also misleading people by exposing them to mediocrity and fake news. You have to do research yourself and have your own judgement.
@@checkmilu You have to sing my comment for it to make sense.
(Michio Kaku? Really?)
We decided to eat from the tree of all knowing, but didn’t consider whether or not we could even comprehend it all in our 3 dimensional selves. All very interesting though and I look forward to seeing how close we can get!
Thanks for this series Robert 👍
Excellent as usual!
This has got to be 1 of the most IMPORTANT CHANNEL ON RUclips to me personally
That question of who and what we are' it's a question many chase for there whole lives!!!
I thank u
So glad to see the much better production qualities....I can now enjoy watching these again.
He says he doesn't want Science to end by 'Final Theory' he wants to end the process of asking why. But that is exactly the essence of Science. If we stop asking why, we have finished Science.
This was fantastic Mr Kuhn.
Wonderful to get viewpoints from Nobel Prize winners.
Cheers,
You cannot arrive at a “final theory of everything” without first “knowing” everything. And such a prospect is highly dubious for us mere mortals forever locked into our particular space-time matrix. We may ultimately be left with several theories or laws which apply, though quite well, within their own unique realm - quantum laws, relativity laws, and one or two other bodies of laws governing their own realm. Hawking suggested as much.
I see myself in you Robert Lawrence Kuhn sir, love you very much, love your work, I can feel how uncomfortable you feel for not knowing the WHY yet, coz I feel the same
Me too:-) MeenaC

Funny, but the opening music is annoying to me. It shows how subjective music is.
Same way some people love the thumping of rap music and it drives me absolutely CRAZY.

A Final Theo-ry? Can the priest of heliocentric scientism get more arrogant? Can you get further to truth? Well yes, and Robert is leading the way.
think max planck, had it right. : consciousness is fundamental, matter is derivative
Consciousness is a product of matter and combination of it ..nothing else ..it does not exist independent
@@tradeup1158 I like to think it is the other way around, matter is another form of consciousness
@@peterdorn5799 ok , can you think that a stone or glass of water is consciousness?
If not ..it means it must have the right combination of matter to be ..this lead to matter creates consciousness. Your mind can not exist without a brain ( matter in right combo)
Yeah, I think so too: the material universe is a subset of fundamental consciousness. So even if we do eventually achieve a theory of everything as it pertains to the material universe, it doesn't even begin to address the larger questions.
@@Two_But_Not_Two your consciousness is just an nececary part for you to survive..so that universe was set for create consciousness is an illusion.
Feat, love, hunger , social consciouness is all part of decide who you are in compare to othet and the interaktion betweeb you and the world for benefit you in the best way .
Nice felings is often god gor you and your chance to survive and reproduce .
Every Living form is consciousness in difrent level but they all are . They are at the level it needs for them to survive and reproduce.
A human can not just think about hunger and love ..it needs to understand other people and ther plan and needs for you to understand how to manish the best outcome for you.
You can be a nice person ..but often only if it does not interfer with your safety, survive chans and reproduce ability. So long this parts is succefully achived the person can give and be nice to people and animal.
A good feling for ex love drives you in a direction like to take care of your children ..so they survive and feel good..this makes your DNA to survive ..so the consciouness fealing of love is a programed fealing that increase your chance ..but you feel like it is a choise and an consciousness act. It is an consciouness thing ..but the consciousness is not a magic supernatural thing ..it is just a way to undertand the world for your best intress.
So consciouness is real but it is an product of evolution.
Spectacular
Great !
This was great. All of this made sense to me. I know, as Neil DeGrasse Tyson says, the universe is under no obligation to make sense to me. But these views made sense.
How do you know that the universe is not at least under obligation to make sense to someone? Anyone? Maybe it does.
Good subtitles
Final Theory can be elegant and simple, but infinite!
A theory of causation in universe would be great.
Does anyone know the piano piece at the end of this video, please?
Outstanding.! Five highly accomplished experts weighing in, and only Dr. Wolfram diverges from the consensus that a final description could take from many mellinium to NEVER..His theories are engaging and certainly there are examples of simple lines of computer code manipulated to generate stunning complexity, but how can Wolfram physics EVER be tested for validity.? It can't just ACCOUNT for existing observations either, but make NEW and verifiable predictions, or account for a phenomenon not presently explained..Great show..
hello Robert Lawrence Kuhn ... we ponder if you would understand this challenge ... one question places the THEOLOGIAN and THEORETICAL SCIENTIST onto the same page.
ONE question ... pay attention ... here it is ... *which idea fascinated man's curiosity first 1/137 or its reciprocal 137?*
That ONE question allows us to place 'what is consciousnsess?' at the center of ALL controversy and discussion when trying to reconcile science and religion.
Hi Everyone, sorry about missing too many show. But I alowded to connect again. The best show ever.😎♒🌻🎵🎶 Philippe Martin love you all
I believe in the end the ultimate theory is never going to be why but why not.
The discovery of a fundamental particle is the great achievement that will in the future make a theory of everything possible. It will involve an eternal universe and the 4th dimension outside the space time we can see.
This sounds, er, sort of RELIGIOUS??? As a Christian, all I can say is, Good luck with that!!!
@@amandayorke481 I must say it would falsify a lot of the standard model as well as cosmology so the best response I had was “ nice idea but no evidence “ from a professor at Nottingham.
I believe in freedom of religion so good luck to you. The proposal of an undiscovered particle is not based on religion but an attempt to account for observations that have no explanation or inadequate explanation.
When you grow up you might ditch that fake cliche “ Good luck with that” because it could have been said to W Pauli when he postulated the neutrino or Dirac when he postulated the antiparticle.
What we see that is truth.
A segment from 'Saved by the Light of the Buddha Within'...
My new understandings of what many call 'God -The Holy Spirit' - resulting from some of the extraordinary ongoing after-effects relating to my NDE...
Myoho-Renge-Kyo represents the identity of what some scientists are now referring to as the unified field of consciousnesses. In other words, it’s the essence of all existence and non-existence - the ultimate creative force behind planets, stars, nebulae, people, animals, trees, fish, birds, and all phenomena, manifest or latent. All matter and intelligence are simply waves or ripples manifesting to and from this core source. Consciousness (enlightenment) is itself the actual creator of everything that exists now, ever existed in the past, or will exist in the future - right down to the minutest particles of dust - each being an individual ripple or wave.
The big difference between chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo and most other conventional prayers is that instead of depending on a ‘middleman’ to connect us to our state of inner enlightenment, we’re able to do it ourselves. That’s because chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo allows us to tap directly into our enlightened state by way of this self-produced sound vibration. ‘Who or What Is God?’ If we compare the concept of God being a separate entity that is forever watching down on us, to the teachings of Nichiren, it makes more sense to me that the true omnipotence, omniscience and omnipresence of what most people perceive to be God, is the fantastic state of enlightenment that exists within each of us. Some say that God is an entity that’s beyond physical matter - I think that the vast amount of information continuously being conveyed via electromagnetic waves in today’s world gives us proof of how an invisible state of God could indeed exist.
For example, it’s now widely known that specific data relayed by way of electromagnetic waves has the potential to help bring about extraordinary and powerful effects - including an instant global awareness of something or a mass emotional reaction. It’s also common knowledge that these invisible waves can easily be used to detonate a bomb or to enable NASA to control the movements of a robot as far away as the Moon or Mars - none of which is possible without a receiver to decode the information that’s being transmitted. Without the receiver, the data would remain impotent. In a very similar way, we need to have our own ‘receiver’ switched on so that we can activate a clear and precise understanding of our own life, all other life and what everything else in existence is.
Chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo each day helps us to achieve this because it allows us to reach the core of our enlightenment and keep it switched on. That’s because Myoho-Renge-Kyo represents the identity of what scientists now refer to as the unified field of consciousnesses. To break it down - Myoho represents the Law of manifestation and latency (Nature) and consists of two alternating states. For example, the state of Myo is where everything in life that’s not obvious to us exists - including our stored memories when we’re not thinking about them - our hidden potential and inner emotions whenever they’re dormant - our desires, our fears, our wisdom, happiness, karma - and more importantly, our enlightenment.
The other state, ho, is where everything in Life exists whenever it becomes evident to us, such as when a thought pops up from within our memory - whenever we experience or express our emotions - or whenever a good or bad cause manifests as an effect from our karma. When anything becomes apparent, it merely means that it’s come out of the state of Myo (dormancy/latency) and into a state of ho (manifestation). It’s the difference between consciousness and unconsciousness, being awake or asleep, or knowing and not knowing.
The second law - Renge - Ren meaning cause and ge meaning effect, governs and controls the functions of Myoho - these two laws of Myoho and Renge, not only function together simultaneously but also underlies all spiritual and physical existence.
The final and third part of the tri-combination - Kyo, is the Law that allows Myoho to integrate with Renge - or vice versa. It’s the great, invisible thread of energy that fuses and connects all Life and matter - as well as the past, present and future. It’s also sometimes termed the Universal Law of Communication - perhaps it could even be compared with the string theory that many scientists now suspect exists.
Just as the cells in our body, our thoughts, feelings and everything else is continually fluctuating within us - all that exists in the world around us and beyond is also in a constant state of flux - constantly controlled by these three fundamental laws. In fact, more things are going back and forth between the two states of Myo and ho in a single moment than it would ever be possible to calculate or describe. And it doesn’t matter how big or small, famous or trivial anything or anyone may appear to be, everything that’s ever existed in the past, exists now or will exist in the future, exists only because of the workings of the Laws ‘Myoho-Renge-Kyo’ - the basis of the four fundamental forces, and if they didn’t function, neither we nor anything else could go on existing. That’s because all forms of existence, including the seasons, day, night, birth, death and so on, are moving forward in an ongoing flow of continuation - rhythmically reverting back and forth between the two fundamental states of Myo and ho in absolute accordance with Renge - and by way of Kyo. Even stars are dying and being reborn under the workings of what the combination ‘Myoho-Renge-Kyo’ represents. Nam, or Namu - which mean the same thing, are vibrational passwords or keys that allow us to reach deep into our life and fuse with or become one with ‘Myoho-Renge-Kyo’.
On a more personal level, nothing ever happens by chance or coincidence, it’s the causes that we’ve made in our past, or are presently making, that determine how these laws function uniquely in each of our lives - as well as the environment from moment to moment. By facing east, in harmony with the direction that the Earth is spinning, and chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo for a minimum of, let’s say, ten minutes daily to start with, any of us can experience actual proof of its positive effects in our lives - even if it only makes us feel good on the inside, there will be a definite positive effect. That’s because we’re able to pierce through the thickest layers of our karma and activate our inherent Buddha Nature (our enlightened state). By so doing, we’re then able to bring forth the wisdom and good fortune that we need to challenge, overcome and change our adverse circumstances - turn them into positive ones - or manifest and gain even greater fulfilment in our daily lives from our accumulated good karma. This also allows us to bring forth the wisdom that can free us from the ignorance and stupidity that’s preventing us from accepting and being proud of the person that we indeed are - regardless of our race, colour, gender or sexuality. We’re also able to see and understand our circumstances and the environment far more clearly, as well as attract and connect with any needed external beneficial forces and situations. As I’ve already mentioned, everything is subject to the law of Cause and Effect - the ‘actual-proof-strength’ resulting from chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo always depends on our determination, sincerity and dedication.
For example, the levels of difference could be compared to making a sound on a piano, creating a melody, producing a great song, and so on. Something else that’s very important to always respect and acknowledge is that the Law (or if you prefer God) is in everyone and everything.
NB: There are frightening and disturbing sounds, and there are tranquil and relaxing sounds. It’s the emotional result of any noise or sound that can trigger off a mood or even instantly change one. When chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo each day, we are producing a sound vibration that’s the password to our true inner-self - this soon becomes apparent when you start reassessing your views on various things - such as your fears and desires etc. The best way to get the desired result when chanting is not to view things conventionally - rather than reaching out to an external source, we need to reach into our own lives and bring our needs and desires to fruition from within - including the good fortune and strength to achieve any help that we may need. Chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo also reaches out externally and draws us towards, or draws towards us, what we need to make us happy from our environment. For example, it helps us to be in the right place at the right time - to make better choices and decisions and so forth. We need to think of it as a seed within us that we’re watering and bringing sunshine to for it to grow, blossom and bring forth fruit or flowers. It’s also important to understand that everything we need in life, including the answer to every question and the potential to achieve every dream, already exists within us.
Somewhere in the fifth dimension, a kid has his universe game taking away, and everything goes dark, and we are no more
According to the double slit exp and in a way fractals, it looks like we will just keep creating more depth the further we chose to go. Wich is good to me this is too exciting
No it does not, it points to a simple base subspace field of +ve charge cells held together by free-flowing -ve charge... 1 force, 2 particles... a UNIFYING binary field theory.... the best kind of unified field theory.. This is all that is needed to emerge a more coherent, integrated Standard Model with far fewer (ie. only 2) made up 'particles' that have not been / cannot be detected.. SM has many more.. Gravity naturally emerges from the quantised base charge field (the EM, Strong Gravitational Field) and (a component of) Dark Energy.. Double slit results make total sense to me...
I hope to see more of the other Robert and Frank, they was great, filming also great
The best scene for me starts around the 14th minute and climaxes at 14:33 minutes. It is when Robert Laughlin explains that we are to early for a final theory "by millennia" and Robert answers "Th...th... that long...?" Can't remember ever seeing him so thrown off the rails by any other answer in any of the other videos.
And of course as always great video overall.
It is more likely we have more than enough data to make a unifying theory but dogma and higher and higher energy experiments are confusing matters... Needs a paradigm shift.
A theory is conceptual idea constructed in the human mind. Because we ourselves are limited there can be no theory of everything.
We know the answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe and everything....

The computer said that sarcastically...don't know why everyone seems to ignore that.
When we realize that, The esoteric knowledge of Consciousness isn't an equation that needs to be worked out, But a frequency we use to identify and record our actions in the ether. That old saying, " Nothing New Under The Sun"... When we combine our knowledge of space-time the ether, consciousness and physics general and quantum, Then we will be in a better place to discover a unified theory.
we don't know that consciousness isn't an equation? that is speculation on your part, that makes the rest of what you say, which is frankly nonsense, nonsense.
A theory of everything (TOE), final theory, ultimate theory, or master theory is a hypothetical single, all-encompassing, coherent theoretical framework of physics that fully explains and links together all physical aspects of the universe. Finding a TOE is one of the major unsolved problems in physics. String theory and M-theory have been proposed as theories of everything. Over the past few centuries, two theoretical frameworks have been developed that, together, most closely resemble a TOE. These two theories upon which all modern physics rests are general relativity and quantum mechanics. General relativity is a theoretical framework that only focuses on gravity for understanding the universe in regions of both large scale and high mass: stars, galaxies, clusters of galaxies, etc. On the other hand, quantum mechanics is a theoretical framework that only focuses on three non-gravitational forces for understanding the universe in regions of both small scale and low mass: sub-atomic particles, atoms, molecules, etc. Quantum mechanics successfully implemented the Standard Model that describes the three non-gravitational forces - strong nuclear, weak nuclear, and electromagnetic force - as well as all observed elementary particles.
General relativity and quantum mechanics have been thoroughly proven in their separate fields of relevance. Since the usual domains of applicability of general relativity and quantum mechanics are so different, most situations require that only one of the two theories be used. However, the two theories are considered incompatible in regions of extremely small scale - the Planck scale - such as those that exist within a black hole or during the beginning stages of the universe (i.e., the moment immediately following the Big Bang). To resolve the incompatibility, a theoretical framework revealing a deeper underlying reality, unifying gravity with the other three interactions, must be discovered to harmoniously integrate the realms of general relativity and quantum mechanics into a seamless whole: the TOE is a single theory that, in principle, is capable of describing all phenomena in the universe.
In pursuit of this goal, quantum gravity has become one area of active research. One example is string theory, which evolved into a candidate for the TOE, but not without drawbacks (most notably, its lack of currently testable predictions) and controversy. String theory posits that at the beginning of the universe (up to 10−43 seconds after the Big Bang), the four fundamental forces were once a single fundamental force. According to string theory, every particle in the universe, at its most microscopic level (Planck length), consists of varying combinations of vibrating strings (or strands) with preferred patterns of vibration. String theory further claims that it is through these specific oscillatory patterns of strings that a particle of unique mass and force charge is created (that is to say, the electron is a type of string that vibrates one way, while the up quark is a type of string vibrating another way, and so forth).
A Theory of Everything should properly predict its own discovery
"Who knows", best answer.
There are two big questions. The how? And the why? I think they are two different but equally important questions.
The standard model doesn't "explain elementary particles" at best it describes some of their properties.
Time causes gravity. There, that's the only hint I'm providing for the grand unified field theory.

The complexities of nature could be beyond us in the sense that if the universe is multidimensional and we can not perceive beyond a certain point then we might never have a philosophical aspect to explain the theory of everything.

Went through Sean Carroll's pandemic lockdown lecture series. Quantum Field Theory (QFT), comes closest to a "final theory". It unites quantum mechanics with special relativity. (But the math is not necessarily simple.) The next step is reconciling with general relativity, i.e. quantum physics with gravity. This is usually what is meant by a "grand unified theory", to unite the four fundamental forces in physics. This is not the same as explaining "everything", even just within physics.
There are still some very *fundamental* problems in physics. E.g., the "measurement problem" in quantum mechanics. What is "dark matter" and "dark energy" (most of the stuff in the universe) ...
Sabine Hossenfelder has a video on this. She suggests a different approach. Instead of trying to find the ultimate elegant beautiful symmetric logical theory, brute forcing your way into it, from preconceptions, ... pick on an outstanding problem instead. Do actual experiments. Probe the reality. It is possible nature will reveal something new and surprising. This can be the opening to re-envision everything, change paradigm, make progress on a deeper theory. In the history of science, fundamental progress is made, usually when picking on these "anomalies".
When you think a thought. What happens in between the thought? Is a thought a particle or a wave? Can a thought be split? And enter a quantum state of multi-dimentionality? And who is doing the thinking? Matter? Or anti-matter? Is anti-matter the "gap" in between the thoughts?
Good luck, hope you find it.
"Is there a theory of everything?"; that is a moot question. This is like asking that question 100 years ago. We know very little of the foundations of life, even today.
simple explanation: mathematics does not describe the world, it describes statistics of the world

Why we should accept, the final theory of everything?
TOE - yes, but it is not a particle theory but a theory include the particles.
Somewhat happy to see all those "big" scientists having the same big questions and answers as me,an ordinary human with no science background whatsoever...
At 20:32 with Frank Wilczek, a most important question. Dr Kuhn asks why all these "10 to the 80th number of protons" are the SAME. Here's something that's been bugging me. Infinity... not just infinitely big, but also the infinitely small. Even an atom has an infinitely small to "relate to". Ok, so there's Planck's constant defining the limits of smallness. Or does it it? But I digress. Why is infinite smallness also relevant?
The physics of our experienced world (what we call reality) are very different to the physics of the very small. There is no mystery about this. When you reduce the length/height of an entity, its mass (volume) is reduced by the third power. Halving the edges of a rectangular block of matter reduces its mass to one eighth. Extend that third-power reduction to the level of the atom, and the constraints of physics as we know them virtually disappear. Strange behaviors at the atomic and subatomic levels are inevitable. This is why such remarkable complexity is possible within cells and their DNA, why ants and spiders have long legs, and why the tiniest bugs appear like monsters from alien worlds, when viewed under an electron microscope. We can extend this third-power rule in the opposite direction; it is the reason why the bigger the animal, the stouter its form and the stubbier its limbs.
But to cut a long story short, the infinitely small also raises questions about the weird properties of which subatomic particles are capable, because they are not as confined by physical limitations as we are. How do the physically unconstrained possibilities of the very small get contained within the possibilities that are essential to life? Factor in CHNOPS. It's an acronym that astrophysicists have coined to acknowledge that all the elements essential to life on earth (Carbon, Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Phosphorus, Sulfur) are, actually, strewn throughout the cosmos. The question of "identicality" that Dr Kuhn raises with Dr Wilczek applies also to these elements of life. The most sensible assumption we can make is that life is pervasive throughout the cosmos.
Howdy.
I would say it depends of the framework or paradigm within one is exploring.
Newton, Kepler and Leibniz worked within the framework that speeds are no more than say 95% of that of light.
Einstein worked inside the paradigm that one is outside the Event Horizon.
And so on ...

I personally don't think so, as this would just be a starting point which opens up a lot of deeper realizations, who's gods god?
or like the difference between a king and an emperor we just bristow another title upon an existing reality solely for the pre existing prestige?
There is a theory of everything. It's called "Consciousness"!
Yes there is, Robert, but the world is not ready for it, yet !
what would make the world ready?
Cosmik Relic / No armament, no armies, no guns, no wars and an international agreement of 100% completely interdiction of agression and war.
@@mikel4879 and we can't make any progress until your view of reality is met?
Cosmik Relic / It is not my "view of reality".
It is how it will be, because there's no other way.
The true science can bring very dangerous scientific applications to the existence of humanity and that's why humanity has to be completely civilized to be able to survive.
Otherwise the true science will not be revealed and the so-called "progress" will continue in the same manner that you like until the right conditions are met.
It doesn't matter what I want or I don't want. It is how it will be and independently of what I want.
Whether ONE Universe or many, the FONT OF ALL may still be contemplating Its own beginning...
Perhaps, spacetime doesnt have curvature but has flow. Spacetime becomes particles. The constant G, is proportional to the amount of energy present at any "point". It is a result of spacetime being converted into matter and energy. Spacetime has drag for example.
As far as the propositions of mathematics refer to reality they are not certain and as far as they are certain they they don't refer to reality too
Great job on this one too!
However, I have a question. We know that the personality style which investigates the universe for the sake of knowledge itself tends not to specialize. It is extremely self-objective to a fault. So why does the interviewer keep interviewing such specialists? They are more like the personality type which gathers knowledge only for a specific use.
Take trees as an example-they are generally affable and I love them. They also focus all their knowledge on a specific way of viewing things. They are a model of the universe to the extent that they can model it. But they don’t use symbols and they cannot talk, unless you are capable of seeing the geometric, chemical, and energy story they tell-which only a higher mind like a particular type which humans have can see. I would give a tree a Nobel prize too.
Who you need to be interviewing are those people who never stop thinking or seeing. Those who do not form conclusions. Who may come up with all the ideas that you would ever want to construct a life and a niche in academia upon. Yet they do not settle or focus: their ideas are universal and ever-moving like the life force itself in evolutionary processes.
Why don’t you ask someone like that? Maybe they already see the real final theory. They one beyond all symbols and niches, but incorporating them all.
Just an idea. 😉
It is called hypothesis
I think you would like Tom Campbell. I prefer him to any of the other people he (R.L.K) has interviewed.

@@alenkratohvil3859 Thanks, I will look for that.
A final theory of everything can only be explained by an understanding of consciousness and not an explanation of the regularities in physics. Physical reality itself is in consciousness and so until you can understand consciousness, you won't understand what ultimate realiy is. To think that physics can provide the answer about what ultimate reality is, is to make the mistake of thinking that matter is more fundamental than consciousness. That is where all materialists get it wrong
you have no evidence for any of this.
@@cosmikrelic4815 what exactly would count as evidence for you ?
@@analyticeschatology4143 i don't know, but i'm not the one making the claim. if your claim is true you must have evidence, what is your best evidence?
Before you could even begin to approach a so-called "theory of everything", you must first strip away any and all biases based on human conceits and the limits or distortions of our perceptions. You must know the right questions to ask rather than those that contain falsehoods or baseless assumptions in their premises. For example, before you can ask "what caused the universe to begin?", you must first answer why you assume that the universe began to exist rather than the possibility that it is eternal. If you can't rule out the latter, then it is pointless to ask the former. This same principle is true for any other big picture questions that we may be tempted to ask such as "what is the purpose of the universe?" Why assume that it must have a purpose? If the only answer is because the idea of a purposeless universe is personally troubling, then that's not a good enough reason. Instead, you must first answer the question, "Is there any objective reason to conclude that the universe must have a purpose?" Once again, if the answer is no then you must eject that assumption too. Some may interpret this as a kind of bleak nihilism, but there's no reason why you can't choose your own personal meaning while remaining objective and unbiased about more universal questions.
This seems to be where physics and philosophy meet ... surely, there is always the unknowable ...and we know what scientists have to say about THAT - Something that can't be measured or quantified!

Maybe it's not even a single theory. Maybe seven or 42 or 144 theories that are all independent of each other and all others, working on their exclusive domains but just incidentally happen to work synergistically. My own final theory is that
SWT is the theory of everything ♥️
Wolframs limited number of decades are somewhat discouraging
The answer is 42.
The Final rule is and has always been with us. All we have to do is discover it. It's like Jesus who came but the jews still expecting him. But again, I believe it will be revealed with the unification of humanity & the World.
so whose right the christians or the jews, or perhaps neither. what does unification of humanity and the world look like? sounds like nonsense to me.
@@cosmikrelic4815 you're not getting the point or you're allowing yourself to get biased. The final Theory isn't in the future but has always been with us. We'll figure it out or they'll be a general consensus as our differences blurs out.
@@arikingooo of course it is in the future, we haven't found it yet so it is in the future. What's so hard about that?
@@cosmikrelic4815 of course not. It's already here and was known even by the ancients. As long as there are theoretical differences among scientists. Nothing rings true.
Not until we truly understand consciousness.

Rather than squeeze it out of the picture.

@@labidifaycal3185publish your theory.
I take it you are one that believes consciousness to be fundamental...?😮
I always wondered if all the authentic saints of the world would know the answers to everything & also, would they know all the physics, chemistry & whatnots that rule the universe too or just their own domains alone?. Only questions, not many proper answers, it appears everywhere, Sir. MeenaC
They would know
A theory of everything is provided in the Vedas, with a modern formal description given here: press.shabda.co/publications/conceiving-the-inconceivable/
you again. we've had this discussion before. if the vedas have the truth why hasn't someone got a nobel prize? maybe it's because the stuff in the vedas is vague and has as many interpretations as there are readers. oh yeah i forgot, sanskrit is a perfect language isn't it? what crap.

If a system is self-referential it is circular logic thus uncogent thus illogical thus self-referential. Phi 101, folks.
We've known for decades from Quantum Field Theory (Zeh) that quantum fields are behind everything, that they extend unbounded, nonlocal and continuous. The Fundamental question is: what's behind quantum fields ???
We're not far to find the Theory of everything, the ground theory or the unified theory but that only applies to this particular Spacetime/Matter Reality Box. Yet, I suspect It's not along this Timeline. Thus, we have to shift Timelines in a steepest descent manner to come across the right one. For that, we need to develop MetaIntelligence further.
Nevertheless, we have to realize there are higher Reality Boxes above the Quantum Reality Box

In reality there will be one theory of everything, what we know and what we don't know everything is founded on energy start from tiny atoms always to giant stars, what actually we need to complete that how space produces energy and and how long space does that none stopped, that will give us window of everything. Because rest of the stuff on earth or other planets they are by product and characteristics of energy.
