    What Firas is saying and I share, is that our level of science just takes us to a limited explanation of physics and "reality". As time passes I hope our knowledge continues to keep building up and come with better explanations for different phenomena that our scientific knowledge just can't explain at the moment. Probably when we have quantum computers we're goong to be able to generate experiments that prove different things that at the moment we just can't, only have different theories about stuff.

      No it's not. It's a set of principles that govern the process of determining that which corresponds with reality and that which doesn't.

      @@Haunting1981 No, it necessarily does. How would you go about determining those principles? Through observation and experimentation. a)Things don’t all happen at once, therefore time exists. b) There’s no such thing as ‘now’- as soon as you mention it, it is not 'now' anymore, but instead then.
      So you’re using *past* experiences (i.e. observation and experimentation) to determine *current* principles of reality, hence, by necessity assuming the regularity of behavior.
      Sufficient regularity is an effectively reliable correlation, absolutely, but that doesn’t demonstrate certitude. Assumptions are requisite for engaging with reality, not ‘apologetic’.

  •  8 месяцев назад +9

    To sum up this amazing Firas Zahabi's exposition. Knowledge can not be achieved through senses and the interpretation of the ego, the only way to reach knowledge is through complete consciousness. And the only way to have complete consciousness is to get rid of the ego (or putting it in his own words: "chop everything that might be imaginary, inferred, logical, empirical... to take off all your paradigms"). This is the transcendent experience of the one thing (or enlightenment), and that's why he says that it takes a very brave human being to do that, because few men are willing to get rid of their ego. And this is why I agree there is a point where religion is true and science is faith.

      Refraction is bending of light. The light bends in water due to change in medium and we see a reflection of it. We observe light because of reflection. That is why we can't see in a dark room.

    ❤Love these types of conversations ! Thought experiments ! Thank you ! An excellent guest !
    The purpose of a thought experiment is to encourage speculation, logical thinking and to change paradigms. Thought experiments push us outside our comfort zone by forcing us to confront questions we cannot answer with ease. They demonstrate gaps in our knowledge and help us recognize the limits of what can be known.

    • @axe2grind911a
      @axe2grind911a 6 месяцев назад

      Yeah, too bad his thought experiment was entirely devoid of any logical thinking or speculation outside his preconceived ideas of determinism. Where did he depart from that comfort zone? I would have pointed out his primary assumption of a single causative action in the universe as one of many different possibilities. What about randomness, multiple realities, intention, consciousness as additional causative influences?
