"Time reborn - resetting the clocks"

Post by cooran »

Hello all,

Interesting and puzzling at the same time - hard to make sense of what this would mean for our world view, and for the Teachings

Time reborn - Resetting the Clocks

Oh dear, morphic resonance rears its head again.
One of Smolin’s most astonishing ideas is something he calls the “principle of precedence,” that repeated measurements of a particular phenomenon yield the same outcomes not because the phenomenon is subject to a law of nature but simply because the phenomenon has occurred in the past.
Next stop, tinfoil hats and global reptilian conspiracy.
Then,
saturated with joy,
you will put an end to suffering and stress.

Well I can't access the link but after a comment like that, I don't think I'm missing much. :tongue:
