       Jed Rant: The Banach-Tarski Paradox

       Dear Members and lurkers:
       I found an interesting Youtube post which relates directly to my
       use of the expression that you are, in Truth, a void of infinite
       capacity. Here is what one poster on Youtube said: 'I think we
       don't know enough about anything to say anything about anything
       for sure'.

       The math will mess with your head, perhaps watch a little at the
       beginning for flavor and then the last few minutes for fun....
       imagine the word ''Truth'' whenever he says ''infinity''.
       Enjoy, or perhaps just shake you head and curse me...
       “Some people say, How can you live without knowing? I do not
       know what they mean. I always live without knowing. That is
       easy. How you get to know is what I want to know.”
       ―Richard Feynman
       Love ya, Jed.

       Love it,  the vacuum catastrophe is another debunking of how
       Science usually deals with things, and call it renormalizing it,
       and do so because its blows the accepted knowledge/belief to
       bits. This of course can lead to more knowledge, but some
       knowledge points clearer than others.  I'd like to post
       something in Winston's Spot, and didn't just want to do so,
       without asking first. You run a tight ship, or a tight ship is
       running this, so no big deal either way, I just like this sort
       of stuff.

       Reminds me the infinity hotel paradox.
       Infinity is a small door that can let some phenomena from the
       world of Truth infiltrate to the world of the mind. Same way,
       duality, the idea of "other", is the door that allows the world
       of the mind invade the world of Truth.

       After my no-self realization I had a thought that maybe  0 =
       infinite.   Like you can't have something without nothing.
       After a google I found this which was interesting.

       Makes sense I guess.

       Stayed with the Math.  Didn't agree with "some infinities are
       bigger than others.  There are more real numbers between 0 and 1
       than there are whole numbers in total."  How can you possibly
       say that when both go on forever?  I will literally never run
       out of whole numbers, so how could anything be larger?
       I don't believe infinity x infinity is larger than infinity.

       I too disagree... but go a little further. There is one true
       infinity and that is ''Truth''. The infinite capacity for all
       that arises. Nothing else is infinite but some things are damn
       big.

       Thank you. I tried to watch the video but couldn't wrap my head
       around it. My math is terrible so I could either discard it or
       accept it at face value, but something didn't feel right. That
       would be because the video looks at it from within the
       Dreamstate, which is paradox upon paradox, yet all untrue. If
       you take infinity to be "Truth", as you say (and I should've
       seen) then it all makes sense, because it all is BS... which
       explains why it didn't feel right.

       As I examine the perceived universe, it seems fairly obvious
       that all in contained within awareness (is that what we're
       calling truth?).  No evidence that awareness is contained.  It's
       a little unsettling.
       This must be why emotion/fear is the crux of the dreamstate.
       Even now in this moment of somewhat lucidity, I can guess that
       I'll hang out with friends in a bit and feel concerned about
       whether this girl will like me, and in that moment fully buy in
       to the idea of being a little guy in a big universe.
