International Conference on ESD and the Modern Man I solipsist - # 12 ^ public demand
Hello. There is one question
zen asking what is the sound of a tree falling in an empty forest. It is a question that you want to reflect on the fact that things, when they go in one way, because there is someone who watches as they happen.
Buddhists say there is a veil, they call it maya, that prevents you from seeing reality as it is. If the veil of maya then discover that the universe is a network of relationships between things and the viewer and that makes things what they are.
And I do not know how you call it physics, I do not remember, but even there you know, by now a bit ', which is Mayan. It's like when you throw a ball into an empty room to see how a ball bounces into an empty room and then the room is not empty because no one looks at it and hits the ball against.
The physicist seeks to reduce to a minimum, this presence, but we can not eliminate it. That's why when observing how they behave the little things like the atom, or even small things such as the nucleus of the atom, which is a hundred thousand times smaller, the physicist knows that must be considered as a variable.
And the physical and the Zen Buddhist would answer the question who do not know, what is the sound of a tree falling in an empty forest. Maybe a tree in an empty forest does not exist. Or does not fall.
But the sound of a falling tree good or evil you know is fruuush -thump, though a bit ' even that varies from ear to ear, if one is deaf mica feels so even when the tree falls it makes no noise. This complicates things, however, is not very difficult, as an example, the tree falling. All are more or less agree in saying that makes fruuush -thump.
The people, however, people always seem different depending on who speaks, it is hard to agree on how they are made. So my question is this, I would like to know if there is a way to look exactly like you.
Thanks.
