I'm not sure why experience requires the arrow of time or location. Your experience does, and it might seem that is a universal rule, but only because you can't possibly intuit a world in which time doesn't flow.
I think Dr. Manhattan is a good fictional reference. He existed in a timeless form. Everything was happening simultaneously for him. For everyone else they experienced him in a time like way, but only as a matter of perspective.
- pyinstallwoes 2y agoHow can you imagine any world without experience (observation?) thus any observer is dependent on position thus time simply because it is the partial history that allows the state itself to exist. And your second point is essentially the metaphysical argument for god and early spirituality. Hebrew mystiscm for example describes god pouring itself into lower forms of being to experience itself
- idiotsecant 2y agoThe universe is absolutely full of things you can't imagine but are nonetheless true. Our intuition is only good for a certain regime of space, speed, temperature, pressure, etc. That is why we have tools like mathematics, to expand our minds past our intuition through abstraction.
