The Watcher

Image
  A companion who stays with me always, no matter the situation. It is a sweet, beautiful bond; everyone searches for a friend like this without realizing they already have one. You may be confused about who this is. It is none other than You—the “You” who observes yourself while you are smiling, crying, or even in anger. While you eat, it watches and experiences through you, yet it never feels hunger. While you drink, it experiences the sensation, yet it never grows thirsty. When I try to describe it, I feel as though it is not merely “inside.” It remains present, watching the body as if it were standing outside of it. It is formless, indivisible, and a “no-thing.” Even now, while I am writing and my mind is focused on processing information, I feel myself being observed. There is a silent watcher behind the eyes, witnessing every single action and listening to every word that arises within me. Because of this observer, I feel a sense of detachment from my emotions: Am I truly sa...

Time and My Questions

Image
  TIME AND MY QUESTIONS Time is a fascinating concept — or maybe that’s not the right word. ​ I don’t know exactly what to call it. Every time I try to understand time, it feels less like I’m finding answers and more like I’m uncovering deeper mysteries. ​ So this isn’t an explanation. It’s just the way my thoughts flow when I sit with time and listen. ​I used to believe that only the present is real. ​The past already happened. The future hasn’t happened yet. So only the present must be real — alive, happening, undeniable.That felt logical.​But then I started talking to myself. What exactly is this “present” I’m calling real? ​The moment I notice it, it’s already gone. In microseconds, what is becomes what was. The present doesn’t stay long enough to be held. ​So am I experiencing the present… or just realizing it? ​ Maybe the present is not a duration. Maybe it’s a point — a sharp edge where awareness touches reality. ​And if that’s true, then what is the future? Something unrea...

The Unveiling of Time

Image
  We are living a life of expectations and predictable thoughts instead of truly experiencing life as it is. If we continue this way, we might die without ever knowing what life is. Philosophically, we can consider what we experience as time to be change . Therefore, everything changes, experiences time, and responds to it. Is there anything that doesn’t respond to time? Is change a product of something that doesn’t change? It’s hard to imagine, because without change, is it even possible for anything to exist? The Delayed-Choice Double-Slit Experiment and the Observer Effect These questions bring to mind the delayed-choice double-slit experiment and the observer effect . I find this experiment to be mind-boggling and incredibly powerful. In simple terms, when electrons are sent through a double-slit apparatus without a detector , they act as a wave, creating an interference pattern . However, when we place a detector to observe which slit the electron passes through, it acts a...

Paradox Perception of Time in Universality

Image
  Introduction Is time universal or subjective? Much like an electron exhibits properties of both a wave and a particle, time appears to possess both universal and subjective aspects . This exploration aims to delve into how our experience of time is deeply subjective, even while acknowledging its universal framework . Today, I want to share my thoughts on how I feel time is subjective, even though it’s universal in nature. Focus It might seem counter-intuitive, but focusing intensely on time often makes it feel slower. Our perception of time often operates inversely to our emotional state. Happiness makes time seem to fly by; sadness or depression stretches it. In all these cases, emotion plays a major role in our perception of time. My Analogy Imagine two friends, A and B, studying in the same class. A loves math, while B loves history. For A, math class seems to fly by, but for B, it drags because he doesn’t like it. However, B’s history class goes faster than A’s. If we shift ...
