Exploring Dimensions: Perception, Consciousness, and Reality Introduction We often feel confined by boundaries, limited by what we can perceive. Imagine shinking to the quantum world; we might discover it's as vast and immense as our expanding universe. We seem to be stuck between these two extremes. Even though we know the quantum realm exists and our universe is incredibly large, we still feel limited, unable to perceive or go beyond. It's as if we're bound by gravity, much like a rat attached to a mat. These thoughts lead us to consider dimensions: length is one dimension; length and width make two dimensions; length, width, and height make three dimensions; and when you add time, it becomes four dimensions. We navigate length, width, and height with ease. But what about the fourth dimension—time? While we certainly perceive time, we can't move through it as we do up, down, or sideways. This clearly indicates that we don't fully perceive the fourth dimension; if ...

  Introduction   For some, the very idea of “shapeshifting” brings to mind weird, fantastical creatures. Honestly, I used to be one of them. That is, until I was scrolling through my phone and a short video popped up—werewolves and vampires, the usual suspects. Watching a man physically transform into a monstrous wolf, something sparked in my mind. "Here, a man physically transforms into a beast-wolf," I thought. "But why can't I transform someone?" As that question looped in my mind, I realized the core of you, me, and everyone else is the same, yet incredibly diverse. Before we dive into what makes us common and what makes us unique, let’s clarify something crucial: when I talk about non-physical shapeshifting, I’m not talking about literally changing your body like a werewolf or a superhero. Instead, this is about transforming consciousness, perception, and identity. It’s a journey into the subtle shifts that shape who we are and how we experience the world, ...

Introduction No single individual holds all knowledge, and I am certainly no exception. It is precisely from the bounds of my own understanding that a profound curiosity emerges, fueling an endless stream of questions: why, what, how, and when? Among these, one of the most compelling and enduring questions revolves around the journey between birth and death. While countless religions offer diverse explanations, a deeper observation into the scientific perspective often reveals underlying commonalities, hinting at a shared core truth. Birth: The Assembly of Existence At its most fundamental, birth represents the complex formation of particles into a living entity, typically initiated through the process of reproduction. When we dissect the ‘ingredients’ of this formation, we arrive at the subatomic realm: protons (positive charge), neutrons (neutral), and electrons (negative charge). It’s crucial to note that electrons are considered fundamental particles, not composed of smaller units....

  Dream Travel and Precognition Time travel is a consistently fascinating concept. While it’s true that objects with mass can’t reach the speed of light—a limitation that restricts almost every physical method of achieving time travel, with the exception of light itself—recent research has primarily focused on these physical approaches. However, another potential avenue to consider is non-physical, such as traveling through dreams. My focus here is purely on the idea of consciousness seeing into the future. While I've read about concepts like astral projection, I haven’t experienced it myself nor met anyone who has, so I won’t be delving into that topic. Instead, I’ll concentrate on dreams that seem to reveal future events. There are even some real-life incidents that make you wonder. For example, a colleague of mine dreamt about his brother’s death, and two days later, the same thing happened, even though his brother had been perfectly fine just before. Another instance is when m...

  So , after our little journey through how the universe came to be and that first spark of "me" in the last piece, we're now getting into the nitty-gritty of what actually makes us feel like us. Think of it this way: we laid the groundwork with those big cosmic ideas and the initial sense of being an individual. Now, we're zooming in to see how that "me" starts to take shape ,fine tuning and interact with everything around it. This next part is all about how that feeling of being separate comes about and how we begin to experience the world as individuals –how this sensory system act and how it helpful to grasp things around us. Budhi tattva Once we believe we are separate beings, the Buddhi Tattva begins to emerge. Think of it like a broad concept gradually narrowing down to a precise point, like the tip of a pen – that’s the power of Buddhi Tattva. It allows us to differentiate, to see that two is not the same as three. We start evaluating based on these ...

 Part 2 In my previous article, I explained the first five pure tattvas. If you haven't had a chance to read it yet, I recommend taking a quick look before we continue. These five tattvas are known as the pure tattvas, and they relate to the formation of the cosmos. Today, we'll delve into individuality."that is atma tattvas  Let's begin with an analogy. It will be helpful to grasp the following tattvas before we explore each one individually Analogy Imagine a vast, supreme body of water. If a pebble is thrown into it, droplets fly out. Each droplet, now separate from the immense water body, might feel disconnected, like an independent entity adrift in the air – this feeling of separation is Maya. The brief time the droplet spends in the air is like Kala, our individual perception of time. Gravity, the unseen force, inevitably pulls the droplet back, causing it to merge once more with the larger body – this downward pull, this unavoidable return, is akin to Niyati. The...

      Part-1 The tattvas I t’s easy to forget that English, despite its global reach today, is a relatively modern tongue when set beside ancient languages like Tamil and Sanskrit. This difference in age sometimes creates a curious bias: we tend to readily label anything written in English as ‘scientific,’ while works in other languages risk being dismissed as purely ‘religious’ or even ‘superstitious.’ Yet, the underlying ideas can be profoundly insightful, regardless of the language they’re expressed in. Take Shakti. In English, we might translate it as ‘energy,’ a term readily accepted in science. But when the word ‘Shakti’ itself appears, it’s often immediately associated with a deity and deemed religious, not scientific. As we’ve discussed, these ancient Indian languages are incredibly old, and their vocabulary, though not English, can certainly articulate profound scientific or proto-scientific understandings of the universe.” A random YouTube suggestion about tattv...
