And when we die, we return to it, right, on some quantum level that no one has any freaking idea.
As I say in my book, we might understand reality about as well as a dog understands a TV screen.
Like with absolutely no concept of the machinery, the mechanisms, the processes that produce the flickering images that are in front of us, we might, like the dog doesn't have that understanding of what it's looking at, we might not have an understanding of the cosmos that creates the system that creates the reality that we are seeing and that we think is existence.
I mean, I know about quantum entanglement, another great mystery.
I haven't seen the images.
So each one contains at its center a bit of the other.
That's fascinating.
I think it was like last year.
Yeah, entanglement has been around for decades.
But those images are just β that's stunning.
Well, listen, the physicists that give them their due, they are the branch of science which is actually fully aware of the drop-off where the mystery begins β knowledge ends and the mystery begins.
They could not explain this stuff when it happened.
It actually unsettled those guys, Schrodinger and Einstein and Heisenberg and all.
It really quite unsettled them, right?
