If

Yin = Yang and
Yin+Yang = Tao and
Dark Matter + Dark Energy = Lambda

Perhaps Tao and Lambda are one and the same thing, equal.
Both super symetrical
"The cosmological constant" or "c" C
by another name.
Which might have a slightly different value in every one of the other 10 dimensions of the multiverse, according to Sting Field Theory, or M Theory.
The Mother of all theories.
According to M Theory, the universe is made up of strings that vibrate and play music, a symphony of strings, that resonated through the 11 dimensions of hyperspace.
That is what string theorists say is our best candidate for what Einstein called the "mind of God".
Music and math.

You start with “if”, then state terms (which are all unknowns) and leave us wanting in terms of the ‘then’, in the classic “if - then” statement.

What is the value of yin, and of yang (which are equal...) so that we can appreciate tao’s value?

Based on what you’ve contributed here, there is no ‘then’!!

Also, if we square yin and square yang and add them together, is it true it equals 12.5% of half of Lambda?

Since Lambda = 1
in this universe it doesn't matter how you get there, as long as the result is oneness.

What every religion claims to be about, we are all one.

"The message we hear from all sources of truth is clear: We are all one. That is a message the human race has largely ignored. Forgetting this truth is the only cause of hatred and war, and the way to remember is simple: Love, this and every moment." Dalai Lama 9-11

Oneness with God/Logos/Cosmos/Universe/Nature/Great Spirit or Tao, depending upon your language/beliefs/persuasion, they were all talking about the same thing, the genius that is responsible for creating everything, which permeates the cosmos and animates everything in it.

What Einstein called, "The Mind of God" which Kaku summed up nicely in his book by that name, and here, in a video if you don't have time to read the book, which I highly recommend.

"We are one."

Wow... Cosmic. As in, "Oh, wow, man, that's heavy!"


All of us here have lived a life. You were born, you did your thing, and however many years it took, with all the ups and downs, you're reading what I'm typing, there within the bosom of what's built up around you. That's the same boat I'm in~!!


How in the ever-loving FRIG is "We are one" of any use as you contemplate what to do in the next few minutes, hours, days and on for the rest of your life?


"We are one."

I can feed myself, wipe my butt, bathe, shave, exercise, work, play, shop, cook, eat, sleep, etc. without once saying, much less feeling, "We are one."

Where is "I" in all of this? I am not a "we". I am an only child who has zero difficulty disconnecting from the rest of humanity. From things I've read and experienced, aside from Saucie, there is no one in the world who comes close to needing/wanting me. So where is the "We are one" in such a circumstance? I'm good with "We are two" though.

There is absolutely no way for me to achieve "We are one"ness. That ship has sailed, yogi bear.

And assuming I wanted to, to whom would I turn to for lessons/instructions/example on how it's done? Do I just read SC's list of books and watch the suggested videos?

Obviously I'm not going to make a commitment to become one with the ONE... And I bet if I took a poll of those who are working on become one with the ONE, there would be a HUGE divergence of opinion as to not only what "We are one" means, but as to how to grow to be a part of that ONE.

You older folk may have a memory of arriving at an airport and having to run the gauntlet of the shaved-head, but one ponytail crowd, the Hari Krishna. Wasn't that a trip?

They, like SC, claimed to know shit the rest of didn't, and were certain that if we would just give them a chance, they could, like, you know, teach us, man... Or how about a donation?

SC is proud that he knows special stuff: Tao, Lambda, ...you know the list. But he never says what to DO with that information, other than acknowledge his brilliance in presenting his 'word salads' to us.

SC is preaching to us. He is passing along his important message (so poorly!) and would love to gain adherents.

Is he thinking, "Hey, they fell for mormonism, and that's not even true, so I'm teaching important Truths here (Lambda = 1; write that down, it'll be on the final...) so they should gobble it up and be grateful. My name should be SwamiCat!"


He just wants to share... When you get to the gate keeper of "one", tell him Kori sent you. You'll get a better seat.

You couldn't be more wrong.
I don't want followers.
I'm not trying to start a GD CULT. I hate CULTS.

All I care about his helping others, especially new ExMo's, who've emerged from the abusive CULT we all inherited and are looking for sources to fulfill their basic human needs, especially their higher needs, (intellectual, deriving meaning from their existence) self actualization and ultimately self transcendence, which is what I mean by "Oneness", which is the goal of all religious practices.

I believe that science and reason have the ability to fulfill many of those needs, especially Unified Field Theory or M Theory, especially combined with what we have learned about the universe through the LHC and Hubbell Space Telescope. I think the implications of all of those are profound, cosmologically, intellectually, philosophically, and existentially.

What do the people you're trying to help do next? After they read a post of yours, what ought they to do next?

I'm not asking for me, but for them. And how about a little encouragement for them? Maybe some hints on life style changes/enhancements!

What worked for you? What got you through the long lonely night?

How about something practical?


Seriously... Yin = Yan
             Yin+Yang = Tao
             Dark Matter + Dark Energy = Lambda    ??


That's helpful/useful for those hurting from affiliation with mormonism and who are trying to get free if its influence?

Love.
Like the Dalai Lama said,
"The answer is simple.
Love,
this and every moment."

It doesn't cost a thing and
it might just make you happy.
or a loved one, or a stranger,
in which case you'll be more than happy.

I’ll bet EOD doesn’t own a single tie-dyed shirt. Maybe sandals.

He’s comfortable with being a socially constructed meat puppet, like many of us here. But methinks he doth protest too much.

Exmo Atheists have a raw spot about anything that sounds preachy. So, there’s a rule about that here. Mormonism was that bad for them. I don’t hate the church, but I should. I got over it cuz I’m a freak. This is the place to go to vent and to discuss the pernicious social effects of Mormonism.

One of the most puzzling things for me is how such a bogus religion could function as a mystical technology. It’s all about belief. Belief is the power behind it, which is kind of a bummer when your belief is completely destroyed.

What does "socially constructed meat puppet" mean? It sounds more self-indulgent than thoughtful.

That just indicates your lack of insight. A number of us have met EOD, or EOD and Saucie, and know that he is 100% genuine. If you are lucky in life, one day you may end up with his character and judgment.

No its an "Einstein was a genius, who lived 100 years before we had the benefit of the Hubbell space telescope, super computers or the LHC. Now we know as a result of that 100yrz of accumulated discovery and evidence, is that he was wrong about being wrong about the cosmological constant.
Now we have another name for his cosmological constant,
Dark Matter + Dark Energy = Lambda, ^"

"I can't imagine deriving pleasure from being annoying..."

--SC


So when we tell you, after the 10th time, that your posts are annoying, you don't get any pleasure from posting it another 10 times? (When you say, "Well don't read it then!", I think about what is proper when one comes across a tipped-over garbage can blocking the sidewalk?)

It's possible one or even all of your five basic theme-posts have been useful to someone. If that's really the case, Concrete Zipper should archive your five basic themes and house them permanently here on Exmormon(dot)org.

Here's another thought: I suggest that you create a blog, call it "Lambda Tao Kaku: where my world is your oyster".

And the great thing about it is, you WILL! gain adherents, acolytes, followers, etc. That's the beauty of the internet!!! It's a big, big world out there and there are people who will want to tan themselves in your warm, healing rays!

When you add up everything in the visible universe and you see that your math is off by 95%, you can either go back to the drawing board and come up with better math, like Newton, or just come up with a 95% fudge factor and call it "Dark Matter Energy" or "Lambda" to explain how the universe could be both expanding exponentially AND converging on the same point at the same time,

“Turns out to be right”,yeah... in the same way a guy says,”I’ve only been wrong once. I was in a heated discussion over a certain detail and just to end the unpleasant situation, I admitted defeat. When the truth finally came out I had originally been right all along. My only mistake was in not pursuing my point in the first place”. Technically Einstein’s cosmological constant turned out to be on the right track in the continuing search to explain and measure the accelerating, expanding Cosmos, but not for the reason he “created” it. He was attempting to protect his position that the Universe must be static, he was not predicting the Hubble constant.

Why do you say that?
Is Dark Matter not a constant 20% of the cosmos?
Is Dark Energy not a constant 75% of the Cosmos?
We add them up and get 95%,
But Dark Matter is the opposite of dark energy. Like Gravity it pushes us by warping the fabric of space time, which explains how we could be on a collision course with Andromeda Galaxy and all the other galaxies in Our neighborhood, Laneakea.
As we are all moving at 1.4 million mph towards the Great Attractor, while the rest of the galaxies are moving away from us, exponentially, which is explained by Dark Energy, radiating out of mainly black holes, which are everywhere in the universe.
The force field they generate around them is all encompassing, vibration.
It vibrates at a certain frequency, slows down long enough to matter.
Like a rainbow slowed down vibrations from ultra violate to infrared.
Or a piano from high to low.
Reality is a lightshow, light slowed down long enough to matter,
Until it returns to light,
frozen light.
Transmitting information
The universe is like a snowflakes
Super symetrical,
Yet singularly unique and beautiful.
Yet structurally, mathematically, geometrically identical.
Imagine having to create a beautiful smowflake. Any size.
Now multiply that accomplishment times 100 trillion in an hour.
What do you have?
A miracle of math and physics geniusness and perfect beauty, recorded on a tiny ice sculpture.
How else does mother nature know to do something that magical, if not through some mathmatical structure that is inherent in nature?

Hi dogblogger. Your reference to the variable rate of the term “Hubble’s Constant” was a replyto my post. You are correct, the rate of the Cosmos’ expansion does vary with differences in time and space. Example: the farther “out”(back in time”), the faster the expansion. The term Constant refers to the fact that the expansion rates are constant to the relative positions throughout the continuum. Example: each point on the outer layer of the onion is traveling at a constant rate. Each point on the inner layer of the onion is traveling at a constant rate. However the outer layer is expanding at a faster rate than the inner layer. In this term “Hubble’s Constant” the use of the word constant is a bit misleading. Words can sometimes mean many different things.

As for your reference to faith and being wrong....I guess I don’t get your innuendo here....??.
