Maybe you’re thinking….
that’s impossible.
There are too many possibilities.
This life could be a three-dimensional reality game where I forgot my real identity to temporarily play ‘Homo Sapiens On Earth’ or it could be a dream or as science teaches the evoluitionary outcome of billions of years of evolution or as religion and mythology teaches the creation of a god(s)..etc., etc.
SO…
how can we be positive about anything dealing with existence?
Well, we can understand the basic primal behavior and nature of existence. We have an ironclad illustration of it’s behavior regardless of which of the above scenarios or other ones you believe in.
What is ‘it’?
The appearance of temporary patterns or images.
Why does that tell us anything?
Well first of all let’s look at ‘existence’.
Existence is all there is.
Existence can’t come from anything else…there is nothing else.
By definition and concept…non-existence doesn’t exist.
Existence is ‘always present’ (always existing).
Since there is no place to create it or for it to go…it just ‘IS’. (see #1)
.
Existence is/was not derived from anything else. It never has/had a beginning and won’t have an ending…it is beyond our concept of ‘time’…(counting and comparing repetitive or predictable astronomical movements).IF it could end that means something besides existence is real and that’s impossible (see #1).
So whatever existence is…it is eternal or always present.
Now to the ‘temporary patterns’ point.
Therefore given that …..
EXISTENCE IS ALWAYS PRESENT AND HAS NO BEGININING
how do we explain the PROGRESSIVE nature of reality we are currently experiencing?
We see temporary patterns in existence from quarks popping into subatomic existence to stars appearing and dying we can know that the activity of existence creates temporal patterns, forms, objects, and beings and ultimately intelligence and personalities.
SO…
the inherent activity or nature of existence creates temporary images in this continuous/eternal setting. Things which are not ‘always present’ appear in the ‘always present’.
How is this possible??
EXISTENCE MUST ‘PULSE’ OR CYCLE THROUGH A REPETITIVE PATTERN.
We must conclude that the ability to form ‘temporal patterns/images must be a product or outcome of existence’s unconscious cyclical behavior or nature…or else it could never happen (it can’t be an intellligent decision as intelligence is developed and temporary itself based on experiences and memory).
Why?…since existence is the only thing/non-thing that is real/exists any temporal thing or non-thing appearing in it must be a result of it’s congruent behavior (it’s nature/instinct)
Also since existence is continuous (or ‘always present’) this behavior or expression must be cyclical or part of a larger cycle…like a huge vibration that moves from a simple beat and expands to a complex series of vibrations and back to a primal beat and so on….‘always happening’..’always present’…’eternally’..’forever’.
If we could draw an image of it…existence and it’s moving might look something like this:
CONCLUSION:
The unconscious behavior or nature of existence the ‘always present’ presence
must be cyclical because patterns and images that are not always present appear and disappear.
OR…
in simple terms…
The essence of existence is to continuously move in patterns.
Existence vibrates or pulses in and out of complexity.
