I think that beauty is the reason of it all. Beauty is a empty word for me. Beauty doesn not exist by itself. Beauty need to be experienced or look at by someone else.
Beauty is inherent in everything. The very emmergence of things out of empty space is quite beautiful by itself.


I think that beauty, love, kindness, generousity, positive energy/thinking was the "plan". The plan of the one was to experience outer beauty. No I think that love/beauty is what the one is made of. I think that the creation of the universe was a way to experience all the inner beauty.

I have a really subjective way to see life though. I do think that rationally, theires a explanation why there's so much beauty around. And probably a reason why at any given moments, with practise such like meditation of just concentration of the well beign of my self, I can experience non stop pelasure and beauty and love.

Sadly, even with those pretty evidence, some people rarely get the chance to really understand where the beauty is and keep on diggin the negative.
beauty is everywhere but to someone who can see it.

I wanted to resurrect this beautiful thread because I was recently thinking about something that I posted here earlier, and realized my rather epic calculation error:



You obviously can't count that just by multiplying them together, you count that by taking the amount of colors to the power of the pixels, so 16000000^(256*256) which is about 10^472129. So my calculation was off by 472117 zeros, no biggie.... As a comparison there is "only" about 10^80 atoms in the currently known universe.

Now that makes a hell of a lot more sense because if you think about it, on that digital image there would be displayed EVERY SINGLE THING IN THE UNIVERSE from EVERY POSSIBLE ANGLE AND SITUATION. So somewhere in there would be an image of every nexian having sex with dead clowns, or any other crazy shit you could possibly think of. (dont ask why I just thought of that..)

Now obviously a major part of that would be just meaningless static, because essentially it's the same thing as assigning all the pixels randomly. But just the IDEA that that is a finite number and somewhere in there IS INDEED every single thing you could imagine, makes my little head go round and round.. Inspired by this I decided to code a little generator that does exactly that, assigns pixels randomly with a selected resolution and colorspace. So yes, that MIGHT display a very pixelated version of Mona Lisa, but it probably won't since the chances for that are the same as winning in the lottery a few thousand times in a row.. But it's interesting to play around with that and look at the fuzzy patterns that sometimes form with the lower resolutions zoomed in.

Also on a slightly more off-topic note, I had yet another idea to code a program that produces those same random images and saves them to the disk every second, then you can put your laptop under your pillow and drink a big dose of ayahuasca and lay your head on the pillow. It will be extremely interesting to see if there are any noticeable anomalies in the patterns, as people have already reported that DMT can create some electrical weirdness around you. So that's what I'm gonna do tonight, if there are any interesting results I will post them here somewhere along with the program. *fingers crossed*

Just an update, the pattern experiment was a failure and success at the same time... There was nothing but static in the images, but on the other hand I just had a really, really profound experience.

And it all comes down to the fact that life is incomprehensibly beautiful, no matter how you look at it. Just the idea that you're able to think about life, is enough proof of its beauty. There's no words for what I just experienced, I went insane a million million times, rediscovered that everything has already happened, laughed at the cosmic joke with some extremely cool alien dudes, and then slowly folded back into this place where I'm right now, like a butterfly coming out of its cocoon. Now that's beautiful. Which is the whole subject of this thread apparently.. haha I already forgot. Funny how things work out..


edit: I have to clarify (altho I'm still trippin) that there is a part of me that isn't exactly sure where I folded back into, because some things are not how I left them, and I have this naggin voice at the back of my head telling me: "We live to forget." and "Stop digging deeper." and "Remember the middle path." I think there is alot of integration needed, but it's all still very beautiful. That is the one thing that always remains, beauty, which is the manifestation of eternal, unconditional love.
