His questions are easy. He just never learned from someone who knows the answers. If I were in his shoes I would have asked a master about them.
> Why is the universe so incredibly complicated?
It's not. What exactly is the range of the term universe? It's broad so he ought to point out what he wants to know exactly and where it is. Things of the world are simple when you know, but they are complicated to find out .
> does it [(time)] have a beginning?
Yes, it begins with activities. Not a very deep question; it needs improvement to see a meaningful answer. If you have the wrong question in your mind then even a master's answers will not match.
> the riddle of why we sleep
This is more of a biology question but if you want to know from a theory standpoint why it happens, the answer is that what exists does so by repeating what has been in itself and it only changes based on what happens to it. Living beings repeat the bonds of birth and death repeatedly. Death is a time of rest for human beings because their life is a time of work.
> What the hell is it all about?
Imprecise question. Clear why he obtained no concrete answer.
> What are we doing here?
Trying to improve your truths through the precious opportunity of life
> What’s going on?
You will know that after you can open your eye to the fundamental principle of the world. But he didn't have enough virtue to reach that level yet.
- sctb 8y agoWe're missing out on what you have to share because you're addressing questions asked not by Magee but by a journalist constructing a narrative for the readers of this article, and so we get this dismissive comment. We don't need such dramatized attacks on “wrongness”—we need thoughtful discussion where we stand to learn something substantive. Hacker News readers can handle it.
- blueprint 8y agoIt seems you're getting a little caught up in an assumption that I posited who "he" is. It's not important... what's important are the questions themselves. For example, if you truly intended to gain what I have then you should either (a) prove that there is no such dire wrongness or (b) provisionally retract your claim that the result of such wrong thought is not actually huge. I'm not commenting to be treated well by humans. If you can't show something which you need to know which we can exchange in real conversation, then I'm going to remain wary of the actual meaning of your reply.
- SmooL 8y agoHow does one find a master to ask such questions? I'd also be curious as to what your thoughts on the fundamental principle of the world is?
- blueprint 8y agoIf you want to find a real master of the world then you should confirm how few people were among the true greater philosophers in our history. But that will be very hard for you without a guide because the ones who were alive in the past have already had their records changed past the point of usefulness to humans. Aside from that, use a search engine to see if one has appeared recently. What search term do you need to find such a being? The principle of the world is that what happens is made by 'what is' in problems. People don't realize why things happen to them until a long time passes because they are not so conscious of the causes they carry in own consciousnesses. That's why Socrates said to know thyself. Then you will be able to see. However, how do you really get to know yourself? The answer is to know life. Like I said, every living thing does something repeatedly on the basis of what is in its origin of life. You can change results in your life for the better by changing to better problems.
