@@ashutoshpadhi2782 To be fair you don't have to understand in entirety what someone is saying to understand that it is significant, let alone the person describing it; in a sense from my perspective, it's the reason we list someones achievements from their work and not the work itself most often.
@@valentinmalinov8424 Listen. Your book is so shitty that you need to go to comments on TH-cam to sell that bullshit. Go write a paper and show it to the scientific comunnity, so they can laugh.
Yes, he is good, but there are even better scientists, which are offering this vital elusive theory. Just find the book - "Theory of Everything in Physics and The Universe"
Drs. Kuhn and Susskind are the best team (most lucid, easy to understand, yet profound) of interviewer-interviewee in all of physics, bar none! These dudes rock!
How can they do it if the Big Bang "theory" is an outright fact? As soon as this theory was created it turned into a fact. All the questions started then and have never gone away.
Again stating the obvious, You don't know how to walk until you do, wow what a concept. I play guitar and I didn't know how until I tried.................DUH!!!!!!!!!
I absolutely love your lectures Dr. Susskind! I’ve been a fan of you since 2012 when I first saw you on Through the Wormhole With Morgan Freeman. You put ideas in my head that changed the way I see the universe. *Thank you for that incredible gift* 😊📚🙌
No amount of "sharpness" can overcome the assumption of creating the universe from nothing. Everything was already here when this event happened. The "Big Bang" was nothing but a gargantuan collision in static space. That is where all the energy came from that expanded the galaxies and made them plasma.
Interesting, humbling and fascinating.... As a trained physicist WITH the "philosophical gene," I found this to be so intriguing and a breathe of fresh air! I love when scientists or engineers can actually confront their ignorance and limitations... True masters are always humble! Thanks for sharing, although I think this needs to be hours rather than several minutes long ;) You are honestly bringing us closer to truth with this line of questioning!
Yes, science is a fascinating thing and if you really like to learn a bit more, I will recommend you the book - "Theory of Everything in Physics and The Universe"
I think even with a might theory of everything we don't escape Wittgenstein idea "We feel that even when all possible scientific questions have been answered, the problems of life remain completely untouched. Of course there are then no questions left, and this itself is the answer."
Please convey my deepest respect to Prof. Leonard's most refreshing and breathtaking view. His argument that we are possibly tinkering with a very small area of a huge mechanism brings to my memory a small story : A father and his young son were on their way out of a fancy hotel entertainment area, where they just had a good time and enjoyed all the fancy drinks from the machines, watched the VR games on the screens, and ... and ... The father directed his son to an ANT on the ground .... and asked him : "Do you think that the ANT can ever imagine the complexity of all the machines, software driving them, the people making the food, the accounting system calculating our bill, and charging it to our Visa card through the internet, etc..." The point he was trying to make to his son was that the ANT cannot realize that she CANNOT realize ! Deep !
The more we learn, the more questions we have, the further we get to Closer to Truth. The theory is a mystery, wrapped in an enigma, turned inside out, upside down.
Yes, this is a good stand, but Theory Of Everything exists already. - You can find it in the major book outlets under the name - "Theory Of Everything in Physics and The Universe"
who pretends science has all the answers? what does that even mean? science has the best possible answers currently to any known question, and when a better answer is found, that too will be due to science, in fact even asking the right questions requires science. - im sorry you do not like that, not spiritual enough for you?
Some questions aren't scientific questions. But as far as scientific questions go, science does literally have all the answers - the ones that we actually do have - and it keeps getting us new ones.
Unfortunately, he, nor anyone else, has any answers. That is the problem. Everyone thinks all the questions are answered. They aren't. None of them are at all.
It's not math. My Theory of Everything: Computable logic that arises from how connections are made and/or broken over time. I have working models that do many different sophisticated things, including emulating math. The models are on top of a digital computer of course, but the entirety of the logic is performed by one command that allows you to create or rewrite a command to a string of commands, and nothing else. Contact me at johnphantom @ hotmail . com
A mechanistic view of universe can have more philosophy than realized; in long run may lead to more answers. Traditionally philosophy has been more from a set of assumptions, while a mechanistic view can discover starting points as it goes along (forget now which is a-priori and which a-posteriori).
I'm absolutely hooked by this guy a brilliant explainer of the complexity of it all. I'll disagree with one thing, he says he was born with the mind of a mechanic but not the philosopher, i would say he has an element of both, he seems to visualize concepts he is explaining, while speculating the limits of what we know in comparison to the vastness of the unknown. To me that veers into philosophy.
There are two running problems. The structure of the brain, the human nervous system and how consciousness arises. The second problem is the physical forms of nature starting beneath present particle physics. Then how life evolved itself, was it random or was evolution itself pre-determined.....
perhaps nature and life are both self-organized systems. not to say that they don't also have an environment, but they may have processes that are internal that determine most of their characteristics
Wonder if we will ever stop underestimating the size of our reality or if it is even possibly to overestimate the size of it all. If we don't know what lies beyond 50 miles out what have we got better to do than try and find out what does lie beyond 50 miles, this is what we do whether we know it or not.
Maybe a way will be found to model smaller than planck units and larger than universe using mathematics and other by extrapolating from what is already known.
I think at least scientists should remain humble and realize that they don't even know how much they don't know. Even if they come up with a unifying theory, it isn't the final word.
A good interviewer is one that speaks as little as possible and lets the other one speak as much as possible. Please don't interrupt him in the middle of an explanation dude, don't spoil the interview.
Progress ? We were given life on a living planet. A boomerang, a didgeridoo and a bullrope was all we needed ; a tool to get food , a tool for entertainment and a tool for communication. Today we work endlessly for the millions of tools we need, we fight endless wars , we replace life with more and more «death» (machinery/tools) and we have seriously health problems. If we define humans as tool-makers , we have made huge progress. If we define humans as spiritual beings with wisdom and knowledge about life, one might say we have lost ourselves.
In the great stretches of time We all are part of a Nature that's is beyond a singlar life forms capability ,so in a way it is unanswerable til time to end and time to start again
When he interrupt Susskind by saying "we have learned a lot" was really unacceptable. Susskin was explaining something very imp when it comes to understanding reality or so called world as we quantify is mere just information. He was about to start his philosophical train of thoughts. It seems we all just always want to dwell on proved fact as an achievements and fail to realise every thing we know as an information was a biproduct of wild horse imagination. And if that's the case then this what it is "we all are peice of information livning in an information" unfortunately failed to see big picture beyond our sight, coz we can't comprehend that data that information and that is how our make is.
"Why is there something rather than nothing?" Bc "nothing" does'nt exist. It is nothing. Something has to exist bc nothing can't. Something has always existed. No need for creation.
I very much enjoy Mr. Susskind's talks. But its really insulting to Norwegians everywhere, when he mentioned Columbus, yet it was Norwegians who visited the America's first by hundreds of years.
Although it Sounds intuitive, that we discovered only a fraction of a big everything, this opinion is too traditional. The solution may be in the realm of symmetries, where the small symmetries May Play a big role, because they arise so simple and fast. Perhaps big entities are not of real interest.
I admire your intellect, my friend, you are spot on! - the theory already exists and is nearly exactly how you described - find the book - "Theory of Everything in Physics and The Universe"
The reason for our becoming self-conscious, or self-aware, creatures will become apparent later on, when we begin exploring the nature of being human in greater detail. But this human self-consciousness is something quite different in nature to the reality of the Consciousness that lies behind and within everything to appear as the myriad forms in existence. Consciousness inhabits and animates creation and its creatures not unlike the power that flows through a computer to make it work in accordance with the hardware and software of the device. By this analogy, the specific physical characteristics of a creature’s body constitute the hardware, and the programming of its mind the software. These things are important to understand because if this conceptual ground is not firm, the model we build from here will not endure, and its potential value will be lost. What all this is pointing to is that what you really are―what we all are―is an eternal, unlimited energy source capable of creating and experiencing events. What you are is this creative source, this Consciousness. Who you are is how this Consciousness works through you to express as something unique in the world. Powerful creative Consciousness is your true and essential nature, but of course, you experience your life through the limitations of a human body, so it may not seem that you are an all-powerful being at times, or indeed ever. By its very nature, the body exists as some ‘thing’ and is, therefore, a limitation or restriction of ‘everything else possible’, to become something specific and useful―a human being. And then it must be remembered that these bodies we inhabit are a product of Mother Earth, and have developed for good reasons. Although today there are many philosophes, theories and just sheer guesses put forward to explain the purpose of our existence, none of them fully describe or satisfactorily explain the original intention for our emergence. Some bodies born into this world have, or will develop over time, physical or mental attributes that further alter the creative opportunities and experiences available to them in a lifetime. The influence of our national culture, the general culture of our times, and the impact of our upbringing by parents and other significant people also become major influences that can place limitations on our thinking and power. Other restrictions occur as a result of the pains we might experience in life, the emotions that often get buried in the body as a result, and the accumulating limited beliefs they then give rise to. There is also the concept of ‘karmic debt’ that will limit opportunities, and this too will be discussed later in the work. The state of your own evolved Consciousness is another factor affecting personal power. All these things limit the opportunities you have in life, and so it can be seen that although your true nature is something quite grand, you find yourself in very limiting circumstances. But it is important to keep perspective. Your essential nature is a free and unlimited Consciousness, a potential capable of eternal creation and experience. And this Consciousness was the reality before the Universe that we know emerged.
It’s fascinating to me that within the past 5 years you had super produced interviews about string theory. Only to understand that 5 years ago no serious physicist gave such an idea any time whatsoever. Now, among freshmen minds, an idea of GUT is alchemy.
You only find out at the end, and then it is too late to explain - because it is th end - even if you are observing beings that don't know its the end. BUT - it is that information which creates the next universe. We are now so advanced that the next universe means the next universal understanding of what reality is - this will be achieved by phenomenon based learning. The secret is time and the geometry of prime numbered single points.
Columbus and Magellan took giant leaps where no one would dare step, but SHOULD they have? If they waited for another couple hundred years maybe Europeans would have been more responsible in their dealings with the natives around the world. Maybe they were too infantile to be given such a huge responsibility and ended up destroying countless indigenous populations and history. Not sure on how that applies here, but the point is that just because we can does not necessarily mean we should
BTW people didnt want Colombo (Columbus) to leave not because they thought that the earth was flat , everyone knew that the earth was round (see the spherical world on the scepter of medieval kings...) from ancient Greece. The problem was that Columbus plans were totally wrong, people knew by calculations that the trip (to Indies) was too long. And he would have died in the middle of the sea if there was no America in the middle. The idea that Columbus was the one thinking that the earth was round is made by some books of the last century that were later adopted by Hollywood.
I always had tat feeling, we r far off from truth, may be we are asking the wrong questions or we r not even capable to ask tat question.. As he said we may be pondering over one corner of nothing
Might help to see if there is a clear dividing line between science and philosophy / metaphysics. Then each could be pursued without confusion and interference; like the horizon between earth surface and sky.
@@valentinmalinov8424 Yes... I think of science as a branch of philosophy that puts observation at the top of the heap, above authority, theory or any particular idea.
The universe came to be, because it could. With infinite time before, or in other words no time at all, it could either never happen or happen at any time. We live in one of the probabilities of it starting. At the same time, an infinite amount of other universes could have started at any time. Some failing due to ubalanced laws, and some creating very weird Worlds we can't imagine due to different rules.
At least we got to the point to accept that we know almost nothing and create the perspective for the new generations to find more in the future. Unfortunately the new generation has not been educated this way as the last generations told them that they have the theory of anything and there is not much to discover only to continue some ideas that they produced.
Don't be so disappointed with humanity my friend. I have good news for you - The Theory already exists! - just find the book - "Theory of Everything in Physics and The Universe"
It has zero reviews and the only thing close to a review I can find about it is two videos of pretty girls selling the book. You won't be getting any of my money. Cute girls though.
I thought we already answered why there is something other than nothing? 1. In the first 10 microseconds of the big bang, the universe consisted of a seething maelstrom of elementary particles known as quarks and gluons. Ever since that epoch, quarks and gluons have been locked up inside the protons and neutrons that make up the nuclei of atoms 2.Replicating conditions after the Big Bang When the nuclei collide, their oppositely-directed relative motion compresses the collision region where they overlap, creating matter at extremely high densities to form the QGP. The relative kinetic energy of the incoming nuclei was also then transformed into creating matter. So it was a the order of combination of events - just like that omelet you make perfect or burn.
if there is indeed a theory of everything ,then to whom ? .To a relative being in time ? .Can that which recognizes the patterns of how everything works ,can that be separate from everything ? .Theories can only be relative to time and space ,no time ,no space , no theory .
This is the Theory of Everything. Of course, it will seem foreign. Why wouldn't it? A black hole is simply a minimum entropy star. It is invisible because all it emits are optically invisible gamma rays. It is made of nothing but quarks that have been separated and uses dark matter as the catalyst. Once the quarks have been separated from a sufficient enough collision, it is the sheer density and pressure of the dark matter of space that keeps the quarks apart indefinitely. As a result of this separation, the dark matter is thrown out of the reaction as gamma rays. That is where all the cosmic and gamma rays come from in our universe. Space is made of extremely pressurized electron neutrinos. A black hole starts transforming itself into potential energy by first fusing the electron neutrinos of space and the quarks to create the first neutrons the mass will possess. This turns the black hole into a neutron star but the neutrons are only a thin layer on the surface of the quark plasma. This gives the mass its first optical light as well. The neutrons naturally break down into the first hydrogen the mass will possess. The constantly forming neutrons then fuse with the hydrogen to form the first helium using the beta minus decay, neutron capture method. This is the true fusion of the universe and has absolutely nothing to do with creating energy. It is only a method of turning kinetic energy into potential energy. That is why fusion has never, and will never work for energy production. Quark plasma is what scientists seek. The beta minus decay reaction continues creating heavier elements making the star darker until a crust forms and the light is extinguished. At this point, an atmosphere is allowed to develop since the surface is now protected from the quark plasma underneath. The endless quark plasma energy is what allows all the reactions to take place. We live on an ex-black hole. Gravity is created from a manipulation of the electron neutrinos of space. The energy of a mass breaks down electrons at the core and turns them into electron neutrinos. These particles are shot from the mass gravitationally invisible. They push out on the natural pressure of space to cause gravitational lensing since it is all the same matter. Gravity is created as the natural pressure of space pushes through the outgoing matter to react with normal matter as gravity. At absolute zero, this manipulation stops and so does gravity no matter what the size of the mass may be. Gravity had nothing to do with the energy we see because a massive collision in space created the galaxies as quark plasma shrapnel. The reason the force of gravity remains unexplained is because a cloud of gas and dust must be able to transform itself into a star. This assumption completely disregards 95% of the mass of our universe. Our galaxy was spinning when it was born in the collision. Quark plasma is invisible and can make shapes. The centrifugal force created a massive disk with a bulbous center. The center separated from the disk and our black hole was formed. The remaining quark plasma disk was left to create all the solar systems. Each one was created with a single mass of quark plasma as well. Our solar system did exactly what our galaxy did. A disk with a bulbous center was formed by centrifugal force. The center separated from the disk and our Sun was born as a black hole. The remaining quark plasma disk was left to create the planets and their corresponding moons and rings. Even our planets were formed exactly like our galaxy and solar system was. This is the Theory of Everything. All laws are consistently followed. No stone is unturned. Our universe is very understandable. All it takes is going back to what Edwin Hubble discovered and realizing that it was only the galaxies expanding, not the universe. Hubble never believed in the expanding universe theory but nobody listened. Georges Lamaitres primeval atom theory was accepted immediately and set into stone. It was the biggest mistake science has ever made.
I doubt all forces comes together within our universe in form of a TOE, some of the forces like gravity have it’s source beyond our universe, like a circus tent a few fundamental ropes that keep it in place is secured at a certain distance outside the tent for structural integrity.
Actually, the fundamental concept is so simple, that will be very hard to make improvements - just find the book - "Theory of Everything in Physics and The Universe"
The final theory is simultaneous unity and diversity. The very idea that everything is reducible to a singularity devoid of variety is monochord and monotonous. But you can't reconcile unity and diversity unless you reconcile with their all encompassing source.
@@vijay_r_g When we lose our connection with God, we start unconsciously looking for Him in many distorted ways. The reductionistic way is the search of a primordial singularity. The point is that since the universe is an integrated system of variegated causes and effects, its primal cause, although one, cannot be devoid of multiplicity.
what does your theories Robert and Leonard of string theories change things on the ground if your theories do tidily squat to change things on the ground its quite conceivalble and highly probable you wont have a world to explore or progress in answering that pursuit
@@williamesselman3102 This may well be the case, but I meant it in the most literal sense. I've been subscribing to this channel for several years and the forest setting, the churches, and schools are all the same. It's like they recorded one large set of interviews several years ago and keep posting different sections of them. It is what it is I guess. I suppose it's unrealistic to expect fresh content especially when it relates to fields of study in which new discoveries aren't exactly happening overnight. Not to mention, access to these scientists isn't likely easily attainable, even for someone with the renown of Dr. Kuhn.
At our current stage in reality, the powers of the world have turned Society into one giant machine with one objective. TH-cam is a mechanism and this channel is a gear. This giant data Beast has an agenda and none of you are going to like it.
Surely there is a better way of getting us all closer to truth than showing interviews that are five years old? Leonard Susskind didn’t know the theory of everything then. Presumably he doesn’t know the theory of everything now. He hasn’t learnt a thing in five years? Why is he still in physics? L. Dove Arbiter - Universal Law
I try to imagine 'nothing' from time to time, and sometimes I wonder if nothing really was there before the universe, maybe nothing or void is hyper energy. Perhaps nothing is God, and it WAS nothing that created everything... I can't even fathom what it MIGHT look like. I always get to a dark void, but that's something.
True nothing can't really exist in spacetime as we know it because in every aspect, it would return a value of zero, including the time/duration aspect. The way I like to think of it is that if you had an outdoor pool, and someone told you to add 7000 liters of nothing to it, the pool would remain unchanged. So, this answers the question (for me) of why is there something rather than nothing. It's because there cannot actually be nothing. There can be a black void, but as you say, that's something, just not a very interesting something. Once you have the word 'is' or the word 'be', you're introducing some kind of ongoing concern - something which has at least one non zero value. It's always been interesting to me that whether in a theistic model of the universe/reality or a non-theistic model, there are just some things that are accepted to be an unanswerable mystery to be worked around rather than directly investigated.
Finally Susskind hit the button, he resorts to what eastern mystics prophesied, thousands of years ago. There is no fundamental blocks from which to build everything. Reality seems a compromise between massless and massive, short and long etc., reality is dual in nature. ADS/CFT correspondence is the latest. There are many others. My favorite is: Sequential and simultaneity.
Actually…I think science is approaching the complete opposite conclusion. That there are fundamental and discrete building blocks. But what’s beautiful about that idea is that chaos theory exists…where all systems even discrete ones produce random behavior as you go up in scale. The complementarity you see in things like hisenberg and ADS CFT are basically the consequences of theories being approximations of more discrete physics. Here’s why: position and momentum…why can’t we know both at the same time? Like taking a bowling ball and rolling it on the floor in a dark room to find another bowling ball…you hear the sound, clack! You found the other bowling ball! But because you hit one thing with another thing you don’t know where it is… but you would think that well…you aimed your ball in a certain direction it should be generally in the direction you pushed the ball. Low and behold what happens is that it’s momentum is purely random…why would that be? Think about the room…what would cause the ball to move in a completely random direction in a physical sense? It’s called hidden variables…things you can’t see…little tiny rocks on the floor…other balls…there are smaller things that cause the trajectory to be completely random. What do you suspect those hidden variables are? It’s the vacuum itself. Think about energy…energy is mass which creates curvature. If the vacuum has energy than it is curved too…that’s your rocks on the floor…the deformations that cause the randomness of QM. What do they do right now in particle physics? They annihilate the vacuum energy from the equations and treat it like noise…but that’s the problem…it’s noise because there’s more down there in the vacuum
What a silly question to waste a man of this calibers time with... Atleast leonard was able to make it interesting. I mean really, I cant think of a more clickbaity elementary level question.
We could be given the answer...and choose not to believe it...or maybe we would believe it ...you could have the proof staring right at you and certain people will not believe it ...thats their choice...I know ...this is what is happening right now in this moment of time ...the begining and the end has already happen ....we are just living now in this moment ...this doesnt explain theory of everything ..its just what i have experienced...with nothing to prove to anyone...so there is an explanation ...when in time that will be told ...I dont know .......but it has been told and we may not be ready for it....next level. I feel like I am just here in this moment of time , visiting and observing and now adding my opinion ...if anyone is listening...for what it is worth ...I guess it doesnt matter what I think...it is what it is...knowledge gained through experience....John Locke....time will tell ...time will tell...
Our science is limited because our senses are limited and unreliable even when aided with instruments. Our thinking is always rooted in basic survival instincts and only tuned to this planet. Many things one hears today still have pre-Copernicus notions, that is that everything is for our benefit. This fear and selfishness we must overcome before we can jump to the next level. But even if we do, Susskind is right that we are unlikely to ever comprehend what we are looking at. And looking is another one of those unreliable tools
Probably you are correct, but God let me produce the elusive for mainstream science "TOE" - just find the book "Theory of Everything in Physics and The Universe"
Time is infinite both ways which means your perception of time on this planet cannot be measured so you do not really exist to think about these questions in the first place.
There are those who hypothesized that upon death the body and the mind are dropped. The body and the mind are not dropped. The body changes form (Transfigured), leaving it's most dense part behind, but retaining always its outer shell. The mind (not to be confused with the brain) goes with you, too, joining with the spirit and the body as one energy mass of three dimensions, or facets. You are a three-part being, made of body, mind, and spirit. You will always be a two-part being, not just while you are living on the Earth. Should you choose to return to this experiencing opportunity that you call life on Earth, your divine Self will once again separate it's TRUE dimensions into what you call body, mind, and spirit. In truth you are all one energy, yet with three distinct characteristics. As you undertake to inhabit a new physical body here on Earth, your ethereal body (as some of you have termed it) lowers its vibrations - slows itself from a vibration so rapid that it cannot even be seen, to a speed that produces mass and matter. This actual matter is the creation of pure thought - the work of your mind, the higher mind aspect of your three-part being. This matter is a coagulation of a million billion trillion different energy units into one enormous mass - controllable by the conscious mind. As these tiny energy units have expanded their energy, they are discarded by the body, while the mind creates new one. This the mind creates out of its continuing thought about Who You Are! The ethereal body "catches" the thought, so to speak, and lowers the vibration of more energy units (in a sense "crystallizes" them), and they become matter - the new matter of you. In this way, every cell of your body changes every several years. You are - quite literally - not the same person you were a few years ago. If you think thoughts of illness or disease, your body will translate these thoughts into physical form. GOD THE FATHER is knowing - the parent of all understanding, the begetter of all experience, for you cannot experience that which you do not know. GOD THE SON is experiencing - the embodiment, the acting out, of all that the Father knows of Itself, for you cannot be that which you have not experienced. GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT is being - the disembodiment of all that the Son has experienced of Itself; the simple, exquisite is-ness possible only through the memory of knowing and experiencing. This simple being is bliss. It is God-state, after knowing and experiencing Itself. It is that for which God yearned in the beginning. Of course, you are well past the point where you must have it explained to you that the father-son descriptions of God have nothing to do with gender. I use here the picturesque speech of your most recent scriptures. Much earlier holy writings placed this metaphor in a mother-daughter context. Neither is correct. Your mind can best hold the relationship as: parent-offspring. Or: that-which-gives-rise-to, and that-which-is-risen. Adding the third part of the Trinity produces this relationship: That which gives rise to / That which is risen / That which is. This Triune Reality is God's signature. It is the divine pattern. The three-in-one is everywhere found in the realms of the sublime. You cannot escape it in matters dealing with time and space, God and consciousness, or any of the subtle relationships. On the other hand, you will not find the Triune Truth in any of life's gross relationships. The Triune Truth is recognized in life's subtle relationships by everyone dealing with such relationships. Some of your religions have described the Triune Truth as Father, Son. and Holy Ghost. Some of your psychiatrists use the term super-conscious, conscious, and subconscious. Some of your spiritualists say mind, body, and spirit. Some of your philosophers say a thing is not true for you until it is true in thought, word, and deed. When discussing time, you speak of three times only: past, present, future. Similarly, there are three moments in your perception - before, now, and after. In terms of spatial relationships, whether considering the points in the universe, or various points in your own room, you recognize here, there, and the space in between. In matters of gross relationships, you recognize no "in-between." That is because gross relationships are always dyads, whereas relationships of the higher realm are invariably triads. Hence, there is left-right, up-down, big-small, fast-slow, hot-cold, and the greatest dyad ever created: Male-Female. There are no in-between in these dyads. A thing is either one thing or the other, or some greater or lesser version in relationship to one of these polarities. Within the realm of gross relationships, nothing conceptualized can exist without a conceptualization of its opposite. Most of your day-to-day experience is foundationed in this reality. Within the realm of sublime relationships nothing which exists has an opposite. All is One, and everything progresses from one to the other in a never-ending circle. Time is such a sublime realm, in which what you call past, present, and future exists inter-relationally. That is, they are not opposites, but rather parts of the same whole; progressions of the same idea; cycles of the same energy; aspects of the same immutable Truth. If you conclude from this that past, present, and future exist at one and the same "time," you are right. (Yet now is not the moment to discuss that. We can get into this in much greater detail when we explore the whole concept of time - which we will do late.) The world is the way it is because it could not be any other way and still exist in the gross realm of physicality. Earthquakes and hurricanes, floods and tornadoes, and events that you call natural disasters are but movements of the elements from one polarity to the other. The whole birth-death cycle is part of this movement. These are the rhythms of life, and everything in gross reality is subject to them, because life itself is a rhythm. It is a wave, a vibration, a pulsation at the very heart of the All That Is. Your question infers that I choose these events, that it is My will and desire they should occur. Yet I do not will these things into being. I merely observe you doing so. And I do nothing to stop them, because to do so would be to thwart your will. That, in turn, would deprive you of the God experience, which is the experience you and I have chosen together. Inquire within, rather than without, asking: "What part of my Self do I wish to experience now in the face of this calamity? What aspect of being do I choose to call forth?" For all life exists as a tool of your own creation, and all of its events merely present themselves as opportunities for you to decide, and be, Who You Are. This is true for every soul, and so you see there are no victims in the universe, only creators. The Masters who have walked this planet all knew this. That is why, no matter which Master you might name, none imagined themselves to be victimized - though many were truly crucified. Each soul is a Master - though some do not remember their origins or their heritages. Yet each creates the situation and the circumstance for its own highest purpose and its own quickest remembering - in each moment called now. Judge not, then, the karmic path walked by another. Envy not success, nor pity failure, for you know not what is success or failure in the soul's reckoning. Call not a thing calamity, nor joyous event, until you decide, or witness, how it is used. For is a death a calamity if it saves the lives of thousands? And is a life a joyous event if it has caused nothing but grief? Yet even this you should not judge, but keep always your own counsel, and allow others theirs. There once was a soul who knew itself to be the light. This was a new soul, and so, anxious for experience. "I am the light," it said. "I am the light." Yet all the knowing of it and saying of it could not substitute for the experience of it. Now it came to pass that this soul yearned and yearned to know itself. And so great was its yearning that I one day said, "Do you know, Little One, what you must do to satisfy this yearning of yours?" "Oh, what, God? I'll do anything!" The little soul said. "You must separate yourself from the rest of us," I answered, "and then you must call upon yourself the darkness." "What is the darkness, o Holy One?" the little soul asked. "That which you are not," I replied, and the soul understood. And so this the soul did, removing itself from the All, yea, going even unto another realm. And in this realm the soul had the power to call into its experience all sorts of darkness. And this it did. Yet in the midst of all the darkness did it cry out, "Father, Father, why hast Thou forsaken me?" Even as you have in your blackest times. Yet I have never forsaken you, but stand by you always, ready to remind you of Who You Really Are; ready, always ready, to call you home. Therefore, be a light unto the darkness, and curse it not. And forget not Who You Are in the moment of your encirclement by that which you are not. But do you praise to the creation, even as you seek to change it. And know that what you do in the time of your greatest trial can be your greatest triumph. For the experience you create is a statement of Who You Are - and Who You Want to Be.

Somehow we little creatures, come from one little sperm, egg. By some incredible “power, “we become trylions of cells. Connections in the brain between cells, etc are more than all of the stars in the universe?.
The "power" is by the replication of cells following the map of DNA, RNA, etc., that was contained by a single sperm cell and a single egg cell. There are less connected cells in the human brain than there are stars in the Universe. Human brain contains about 100 billion connected neurons. The human body is estimated to have about 15 trillion cells. That's a lot. But the universe is mighty big, far larger than we can observe when you take into account Inflation and the accelerated expansion of space in the universe. In just the observable universe there are an estimated 1 billion trillion stars. There's lot more of the universe far beyond the observable horizon. Number of cells in the brain vs number of stars in the universe? The universe wins hands down. The human brain, as remarkable as it is, is kind of like a nearly invisible speck in comparison to the vastness of the entire universe.
@@NightBazaar . In this case 100 billion ( brain)+ 15 trylion cells being olso connected. Looks like human body is in certain way it’s own universe. DNA , reproduction? , maybe there is some other “energy “ which works to this incredible growth from sperm , egg. To understand mystery of universe, we should look at our existence, maybe science, maybe faith.
Cool thoughts :) Perhaps we are not small, maybe medium? We're closer to the planck scale than the Hubble scale. We are big enough that a person or a cat has layers of organization: molecules, cells, tissues, organs, the body, the mind, the subconcious, the conscious...
@@nmarbletoe8210 . Well all of those cells will become “fertilizer “ when we physically die. Higher level of can be experienced by evolving spiritually. Soul has to grow up from infant to “adulthood “ during our life time. Having free will, if we don’t choose to embrace pure love, then we just ate, sleept, made couple kids and died like a dog.
A theory of everything is an impossible goal: Gödel's theorem shows it's unachievable at least while we are bounded by and live within a single universe. In practice even just one metaverse amongst many. It's a fool's dream amoungst a ship of single universe or metaverse fools! For you cannot step outside of the universe or metaverse or system of which you are just a part and look over your shoulder to see oh that's how it is!
One day a super intelligent baby may be born who will grow into the greatest mind ever known. It will happen and this great mind will solve the meaning of life.

This guy is 81 and his mind is as sharp as ever. Crazy
bruh, this footage is old af, he was much younger here
Professor Susskind is one the greatest minds alive . I always enjoy hearing his interviews .
his Stanford lectures are freely available on TH-cam and very, very worth watching
Do you have understanding of his technical work? Or you are just saying it because you know that he is a leading string theory researcher
@@ashutoshpadhi2782 To be fair you don't have to understand in entirety what someone is saying to understand that it is significant, let alone the person describing it; in a sense from my perspective, it's the reason we list someones achievements from their work and not the work itself most often.
I'm not entirely sure why but listening to Leonard Susskind actually makes me feel better.
I wish to make fill even better - the Theory exists! - find the book - "Theory of Everything in Physics and The Universe"
@@valentinmalinov8424 Listen. Your book is so shitty that you need to go to comments on TH-cam to sell that bullshit. Go write a paper and show it to the scientific comunnity, so they can laugh.
I love this kind of scientist! At the top of his game but still humble, approachable and no BS science arrogant dogma. We need more of this kind.
Yes, he is good, but there are even better scientists, which are offering this vital elusive theory. Just find the book - "Theory of Everything in Physics and The Universe"
Drs. Kuhn and Susskind are the best team (most lucid, easy to understand, yet profound) of interviewer-interviewee in all of physics, bar none! These dudes rock!
"Human beings can never know what they are able to do until they try to do it." - Leonard Susskind
How can they do it if the Big Bang "theory" is an outright fact? As soon as this theory was created it turned into a fact. All the questions started then and have never gone away.
Again stating the obvious, You don't know how to walk until you do, wow what a concept.
I play guitar and I didn't know how until I tried.................DUH!!!!!!!!!
I absolutely love your lectures Dr. Susskind! I’ve been a fan of you since 2012 when I first saw you on Through the Wormhole With Morgan Freeman. You put ideas in my head that changed the way I see the universe. *Thank you for that incredible gift* 😊📚🙌
I’m not a scientist. But I’m always so happy to watch Prof.Susskind’s interview even though I understand nothing much.
what always baffles me, is how sharp the thoughts of very good physics professors are
No amount of "sharpness" can overcome the assumption of creating the universe from nothing. Everything was already here when this event happened. The "Big Bang" was nothing but a gargantuan collision in static space. That is where all the energy came from that expanded the galaxies and made them plasma.
He is not just very good, he is one of the best physicists that human luckily have!
dudes are both geniuses, each in his own way -- no question.
Interesting, humbling and fascinating.... As a trained physicist WITH the "philosophical gene," I found this to be so intriguing and a breathe of fresh air!
I love when scientists or engineers can actually confront their ignorance and limitations... True masters are always humble!
Thanks for sharing, although I think this needs to be hours rather than several minutes long ;)
You are honestly bringing us closer to truth with this line of questioning!
Yes, science is a fascinating thing and if you really like to learn a bit more, I will recommend you the book - "Theory of Everything in Physics and The Universe"
I think even with a might theory of everything we don't escape Wittgenstein idea
"We feel that even when all possible scientific questions have been answered, the problems of life remain completely untouched. Of course there are then no questions left, and this itself is the answer."
Truly fascinating discussion. TH-cam randomly suggested this to me and ended up watching all the videos and some more videos from Dr. Susskind.
Please convey my deepest respect to Prof. Leonard's most refreshing and breathtaking view.
His argument that we are possibly tinkering with a very small area of a huge mechanism brings to my memory a small story :
A father and his young son were on their way out of a fancy hotel entertainment area, where they just had a good time and
enjoyed all the fancy drinks from the machines, watched the VR games on the screens, and ... and ...
The father directed his son to an ANT on the ground .... and asked him :
"Do you think that the ANT can ever imagine the complexity of all the machines, software driving them, the people
making the food, the accounting system calculating our bill, and charging it to our Visa card through the internet, etc..."
The point he was trying to make to his son was that the ANT cannot realize that she CANNOT realize ! Deep !
The more we learn, the more questions we have, the further we get to Closer to Truth. The theory is a mystery, wrapped in an enigma, turned inside out, upside down.
8:17 "If society supports us in trying, we will probably go a lot further" Yes, just like the pyramids

I love Leonard Susskind, he is amazing.
I like that he doesn’t pretend that science has all the answers.
Yes, this is a good stand, but Theory Of Everything exists already. - You can find it in the major book outlets under the name - "Theory Of Everything in Physics and The Universe"
who pretends science has all the answers? what does that even mean? science has the best possible answers currently to any known question, and when a better answer is found, that too will be due to science, in fact even asking the right questions requires science. - im sorry you do not like that, not spiritual enough for you?
Some questions aren't scientific questions. But as far as scientific questions go, science does literally have all the answers - the ones that we actually do have - and it keeps getting us new ones.
Every time I listen to this guy I feel like he has all the answers its amazing
Unfortunately, he, nor anyone else, has any answers. That is the problem. Everyone thinks all the questions are answered. They aren't. None of them are at all.
He literally said in his first sentence he has no clue.

I have working models that do many different sophisticated things, including emulating math. The models are on top of a digital computer of course, but the entirety of the logic is performed by one command that allows you to create or rewrite a command to a string of commands, and nothing else.

Good conversation. Thank you.
Leonard susskind, the greatest mind alive ❤
A mechanistic view of universe can have more philosophy than realized; in long run may lead to more answers. Traditionally philosophy has been more from a set of assumptions, while a mechanistic view can discover starting points as it goes along (forget now which is a-priori and which a-posteriori).
I love hearing how people like Leonard Susskind pronounce their T's and G's. It's like a delectable feast.
A very humble man!
I'm absolutely hooked by this guy a brilliant explainer of the complexity of it all. I'll disagree with one thing, he says he was born with the mind of a mechanic but not the philosopher, i would say he has an element of both, he seems to visualize concepts he is explaining, while speculating the limits of what we know in comparison to the vastness of the unknown. To me that veers into philosophy.
I love how Susskind is able to make complex ideas easy for us chimps to understand.
There are two running problems. The structure of the brain, the human nervous system and how consciousness arises. The second problem is the physical forms of nature starting beneath present particle physics. Then how life evolved itself, was it random or was evolution itself pre-determined.....
perhaps nature and life are both self-organized systems. not to say that they don't also have an environment, but they may have processes that are internal that determine most of their characteristics
Wonder if we will ever stop underestimating the size of our reality or if it is even possibly to overestimate the size of it all. If we don't know what lies beyond 50 miles out what have we got better to do than try and find out what does lie beyond 50 miles, this is what we do whether we know it or not.
"Chiner and Indier"...love it
Maybe a way will be found to model smaller than planck units and larger than universe using mathematics and other by extrapolating from what is already known.
What we already know is enough, because the Theory already exists - the book - "Theory of Everything in Physics and The Universe"
The smallest and the largest. Just "thinking" about it - it never ends either way.
Anyone know where i can find a documentary or bio on Lenny?
Very interesting!
I think at least scientists should remain humble and realize that they don't even know how much they don't know. Even if they come up with a unifying theory, it isn't the final word.
Sir i like to watch all of your discussion sir i have a request please once take my topic "why free space exists"
A good interviewer is one that speaks as little as possible and lets the other one speak as much as possible. Please don't interrupt him in the middle of an explanation dude, don't spoil the interview.
Progress ? We were given life on a living planet. A boomerang, a didgeridoo and a bullrope was all we needed ; a tool to get food , a tool for entertainment and a tool for communication. Today we work endlessly for the millions of tools we need, we fight endless wars , we replace life with more and more «death» (machinery/tools) and we have seriously health problems. If we define humans as tool-makers , we have made huge progress. If we define humans as spiritual beings with wisdom and knowledge about life, one might say we have lost ourselves.
Yup. There are two ways to be rich, have much, or need little. Or both I guess lol
In the great stretches of time We all are part of a Nature that's is beyond a singlar life forms capability ,so in a way it is unanswerable til time to end and time to start again
the people in these videos are the people I look up to instead of athletes and entertainers
Honest dude. love you
When he interrupt Susskind by saying "we have learned a lot" was really unacceptable. Susskin was explaining something very imp when it comes to understanding reality or so called world as we quantify is mere just information. He was about to start his philosophical train of thoughts. It seems we all just always want to dwell on proved fact as an achievements and fail to realise every thing we know as an information was a biproduct of wild horse imagination. And if that's the case then this what it is "we all are peice of information livning in an information" unfortunately failed to see big picture beyond our sight, coz we can't comprehend that data that information and that is how our make is.
"Why is there something rather than nothing?"
Bc "nothing" does'nt exist. It is nothing. Something has to exist bc nothing can't. Something has always existed. No need for creation.
I agree that *nothing* does not, and *cannot* exist, but this does not explain the existence of existence.
Maybe put together black holes and big bang start of universe, then see where goes?
I very much enjoy Mr. Susskind's talks. But its really insulting to Norwegians everywhere, when he mentioned Columbus, yet it was Norwegians who visited the America's first by hundreds of years.
Although it Sounds intuitive, that we discovered only a fraction of a big everything, this opinion is too traditional. The solution may be in the realm of symmetries, where the small symmetries May Play a big role, because they arise so simple and fast. Perhaps big entities are not of real interest.
I admire your intellect, my friend, you are spot on! - the theory already exists and is nearly exactly how you described - find the book - "Theory of Everything in Physics and The Universe"
The reason for our becoming self-conscious, or self-aware, creatures will become apparent later on, when we begin exploring the nature of being human in greater detail. But this human self-consciousness is something quite different in nature to the reality of the Consciousness that lies behind and within everything to appear as the myriad forms in existence.
Consciousness inhabits and animates creation and its creatures not unlike the power that flows through a computer to make it work in accordance with the hardware and software of the device. By this analogy, the specific physical characteristics of a creature’s body constitute the hardware, and the programming of its mind the software.
These things are important to understand because if this conceptual ground is not firm, the model we build from here will not endure, and its potential value will be lost. What all this is pointing to is that what you really are―what we all are―is an eternal, unlimited energy source capable of creating and experiencing events. What you are is this creative source, this Consciousness. Who you are is how this Consciousness works through you to express as something unique in the world.
Powerful creative Consciousness is your true and essential nature, but of course, you experience your life through the limitations of a human body, so it may not seem that you are an all-powerful being at times, or indeed ever. By its very nature, the body exists as some ‘thing’ and is, therefore, a limitation or restriction of ‘everything else possible’, to become something specific and useful―a human being. And then it must be remembered that these bodies we inhabit are a product of Mother Earth, and have developed for good reasons. Although today there are many philosophes, theories and just sheer guesses put forward to explain the purpose of our existence, none of them fully describe or satisfactorily explain the original intention for our emergence.
Some bodies born into this world have, or will develop over time, physical or mental attributes that further alter the creative opportunities and experiences available to them in a lifetime. The influence of our national culture, the general culture of our times, and the impact of our upbringing by parents and other significant people also become major influences that can place limitations on our thinking and power. Other restrictions occur as a result of the pains we might experience in life, the emotions that often get buried in the body as a result, and the accumulating limited beliefs they then give rise to. There is also the concept of ‘karmic debt’ that will limit opportunities, and this too will be discussed later in the work.
The state of your own evolved Consciousness is another factor affecting personal power. All these things limit the opportunities you have in life, and so it can be seen that although your true nature is something quite grand, you find yourself in very limiting circumstances. But it is important to keep perspective. Your essential nature is a free and unlimited Consciousness, a potential capable of eternal creation and experience. And this Consciousness was the reality before the Universe that we know emerged.
If we growing, naturally, and don’t go forward from the nature’s, because we’re parts of nature’s but not opposite !
It’s fascinating to me that within the past 5 years you had super produced interviews about string theory. Only to understand that 5 years ago no serious physicist gave such an idea any time whatsoever. Now, among freshmen minds, an idea of GUT is alchemy.
You only find out at the end, and then it is too late to explain - because it is th end - even if you are observing beings that don't know its the end. BUT - it is that information which creates the next universe. We are now so advanced that the next universe means the next universal understanding of what reality is - this will be achieved by phenomenon based learning. The secret is time and the geometry of prime numbered single points.
Columbus and Magellan took giant leaps where no one would dare step, but SHOULD they have? If they waited for another couple hundred years maybe Europeans would have been more responsible in their dealings with the natives around the world. Maybe they were too infantile to be given such a huge responsibility and ended up destroying countless indigenous populations and history. Not sure on how that applies here, but the point is that just because we can does not necessarily mean we should
Envy will hinder progress.
And being pessimistic will not help
What happens when two black holes collid
BTW people didnt want Colombo (Columbus) to leave not because they thought that the earth was flat , everyone knew that the earth was round (see the spherical world on the scepter of medieval kings...) from ancient Greece. The problem was that Columbus plans were totally wrong, people knew by calculations that the trip (to Indies) was too long. And he would have died in the middle of the sea if there was no America in the middle. The idea that Columbus was the one thinking that the earth was round is made by some books of the last century that were later adopted by Hollywood.
I always had tat feeling, we r far off from truth, may be we are asking the wrong questions or we r not even capable to ask tat question.. As he said we may be pondering over one corner of nothing
Might help to see if there is a clear dividing line between science and philosophy / metaphysics. Then each could be pursued without confusion and interference; like the horizon between earth surface and sky.
When you find the line that divides reality I will accept your arbitrary line between metaphysics and science.

@@valentinmalinov8424 Yes... I think of science as a branch of philosophy that puts observation at the top of the heap, above authority, theory or any particular idea.
The universe came to be, because it could. With infinite time before, or in other words no time at all, it could either never happen or happen at any time. We live in one of the probabilities of it starting. At the same time, an infinite amount of other universes could have started at any time. Some failing due to ubalanced laws, and some creating very weird Worlds we can't imagine due to different rules.
What is "everything"?
Isn't ... " everything = mechanics + consciousness" ?
At least we got to the point to accept that we know almost nothing and create the perspective for the new generations to find more in the future. Unfortunately the new generation has not been educated this way as the last generations told them that they have the theory of anything and there is not much to discover only to continue some ideas that they produced.

It has zero reviews and the only thing close to a review I can find about it is two videos of pretty girls selling the book. You won't be getting any of my money. Cute girls though.
I thought we already answered why there is something other than nothing? 1. In the first 10 microseconds of the big bang, the universe consisted of a seething maelstrom of elementary particles known as quarks and gluons. Ever since that epoch, quarks and gluons have been locked up inside the protons and neutrons that make up the nuclei of atoms 2.Replicating conditions after the Big Bang
When the nuclei collide, their oppositely-directed relative motion compresses the collision region where they overlap, creating matter at extremely high densities to form the QGP. The relative kinetic energy of the incoming nuclei was also then transformed into creating matter. So it was a the order of combination of events - just like that omelet you make perfect or burn.
if there is indeed a theory of everything ,then to whom ? .To a relative being in time ? .Can that which recognizes the patterns of how everything works ,can that be separate from everything ? .Theories can only be relative to time and space ,no time ,no space , no theory .
This is the Theory of Everything. Of course, it will seem foreign. Why wouldn't it?
A black hole is simply a minimum entropy star. It is invisible because all it emits are optically invisible gamma rays. It is made of nothing but quarks that have been separated and uses dark matter as the catalyst. Once the quarks have been separated from a sufficient enough collision, it is the sheer density and pressure of the dark matter of space that keeps the quarks apart indefinitely. As a result of this separation, the dark matter is thrown out of the reaction as gamma rays. That is where all the cosmic and gamma rays come from in our universe.
Space is made of extremely pressurized electron neutrinos.
A black hole starts transforming itself into potential energy by first fusing the electron neutrinos of space and the quarks to create the first neutrons the mass will possess. This turns the black hole into a neutron star but the neutrons are only a thin layer on the surface of the quark plasma. This gives the mass its first optical light as well.
The neutrons naturally break down into the first hydrogen the mass will possess. The constantly forming neutrons then fuse with the hydrogen to form the first helium using the beta minus decay, neutron capture method. This is the true fusion of the universe and has absolutely nothing to do with creating energy. It is only a method of turning kinetic energy into potential energy. That is why fusion has never, and will never work for energy production. Quark plasma is what scientists seek.
The beta minus decay reaction continues creating heavier elements making the star darker until a crust forms and the light is extinguished. At this point, an atmosphere is allowed to develop since the surface is now protected from the quark plasma underneath. The endless quark plasma energy is what allows all the reactions to take place. We live on an ex-black hole.
Gravity is created from a manipulation of the electron neutrinos of space. The energy of a mass breaks down electrons at the core and turns them into electron neutrinos. These particles are shot from the mass gravitationally invisible. They push out on the natural pressure of space to cause gravitational lensing since it is all the same matter. Gravity is created as the natural pressure of space pushes through the outgoing matter to react with normal matter as gravity. At absolute zero, this manipulation stops and so does gravity no matter what the size of the mass may be.
Gravity had nothing to do with the energy we see because a massive collision in space created the galaxies as quark plasma shrapnel. The reason the force of gravity remains unexplained is because a cloud of gas and dust must be able to transform itself into a star. This assumption completely disregards 95% of the mass of our universe.
Our galaxy was spinning when it was born in the collision. Quark plasma is invisible and can make shapes. The centrifugal force created a massive disk with a bulbous center. The center separated from the disk and our black hole was formed. The remaining quark plasma disk was left to create all the solar systems. Each one was created with a single mass of quark plasma as well.
Our solar system did exactly what our galaxy did. A disk with a bulbous center was formed by centrifugal force. The center separated from the disk and our Sun was born as a black hole. The remaining quark plasma disk was left to create the planets and their corresponding moons and rings. Even our planets were formed exactly like our galaxy and solar system was.
This is the Theory of Everything. All laws are consistently followed. No stone is unturned. Our universe is very understandable. All it takes is going back to what Edwin Hubble discovered and realizing that it was only the galaxies expanding, not the universe. Hubble never believed in the expanding universe theory but nobody listened. Georges Lamaitres primeval atom theory was accepted immediately and set into stone. It was the biggest mistake science has ever made.

We still know very little from both very small and very large
I doubt all forces comes together within our universe in form of a TOE, some of the forces like gravity have it’s source beyond our universe, like a circus tent a few fundamental ropes that keep it in place is secured at a certain distance outside the tent for structural integrity.
asking the question is something.
if nothing the question can't be asked.
There can definitely be a theory of everything, but not a "final" theory of everything. All theories are fallible, and all can be infinitely improved.
Actually, the fundamental concept is so simple, that will be very hard to make improvements - just find the book - "Theory of Everything in Physics and The Universe"
The final theory is simultaneous unity and diversity. The very idea that everything is reducible to a singularity devoid of variety is monochord and monotonous. But you can't reconcile unity and diversity unless you reconcile with their all encompassing source.
That's very poetic!🙂
Can you elaborate on this thought of yours?
@@vijay_r_g When we lose our connection with God, we start unconsciously looking for Him in many distorted ways. The reductionistic way is the search of a primordial singularity. The point is that since the universe is an integrated system of variegated causes and effects, its primal cause, although one, cannot be devoid of multiplicity.
what does your theories Robert and Leonard of string theories change things on the ground
if your theories do tidily squat to change things on the ground its quite conceivalble and highly probable you wont have a world to explore or progress in answering that pursuit

Are you just recycling clips from 10 years ago over and over? That's what it seems like. The settings are the same on all of these interview portions.
It's rhetoric. All totalitarians repeat rhetoric incessantly.
@@williamesselman3102 This may well be the case, but I meant it in the most literal sense. I've been subscribing to this channel for several years and the forest setting, the churches, and schools are all the same. It's like they recorded one large set of interviews several years ago and keep posting different sections of them. It is what it is I guess. I suppose it's unrealistic to expect fresh content especially when it relates to fields of study in which new discoveries aren't exactly happening overnight. Not to mention, access to these scientists isn't likely easily attainable, even for someone with the renown of Dr. Kuhn.
At our current stage in reality, the powers of the world have turned Society into one giant machine with one objective. TH-cam is a mechanism and this channel is a gear. This giant data Beast has an agenda and none of you are going to like it.
"Seas" are people, and the "beast" that comes from our "depths" is here to devour.
Revelations Chapter 13 Verse 1
Surely there is a better way of getting us all closer to truth than showing interviews that are five years old? Leonard Susskind didn’t know the theory of everything then. Presumably he doesn’t know the theory of everything now. He hasn’t learnt a thing in five years? Why is he still in physics?
L. Dove
Arbiter - Universal Law
I try to imagine 'nothing' from time to time, and sometimes I wonder if nothing really was there before the universe, maybe nothing or void is hyper energy. Perhaps nothing is God, and it WAS nothing that created everything... I can't even fathom what it MIGHT look like. I always get to a dark void, but that's something.
True nothing can't really exist in spacetime as we know it because in every aspect, it would return a value of zero, including the time/duration aspect.
The way I like to think of it is that if you had an outdoor pool, and someone told you to add 7000 liters of nothing to it, the pool would remain unchanged.
So, this answers the question (for me) of why is there something rather than nothing. It's because there cannot actually be nothing. There can be a black void, but as you say, that's something, just not a very interesting something. Once you have the word 'is' or the word 'be', you're introducing some kind of ongoing concern - something which has at least one non zero value.
It's always been interesting to me that whether in a theistic model of the universe/reality or a non-theistic model, there are just some things that are accepted to be an unanswerable mystery to be worked around rather than directly investigated.
Why would there be nothing instead of something
Finally Susskind hit the button, he resorts to what eastern mystics prophesied, thousands of years ago. There is no fundamental blocks from which to build everything. Reality seems a compromise between massless and massive, short and long etc., reality is dual in nature. ADS/CFT correspondence is the latest. There are many others. My favorite is: Sequential and simultaneity.
Actually…I think science is approaching the complete opposite conclusion. That there are fundamental and discrete building blocks. But what’s beautiful about that idea is that chaos theory exists…where all systems even discrete ones produce random behavior as you go up in scale.
The complementarity you see in things like hisenberg and ADS CFT are basically the consequences of theories being approximations of more discrete physics. Here’s why: position and momentum…why can’t we know both at the same time? Like taking a bowling ball and rolling it on the floor in a dark room to find another bowling ball…you hear the sound, clack! You found the other bowling ball! But because you hit one thing with another thing you don’t know where it is… but you would think that well…you aimed your ball in a certain direction it should be generally in the direction you pushed the ball. Low and behold what happens is that it’s momentum is purely random…why would that be? Think about the room…what would cause the ball to move in a completely random direction in a physical sense?
It’s called hidden variables…things you can’t see…little tiny rocks on the floor…other balls…there are smaller things that cause the trajectory to be completely random. What do you suspect those hidden variables are? It’s the vacuum itself. Think about energy…energy is mass which creates curvature. If the vacuum has energy than it is curved too…that’s your rocks on the floor…the deformations that cause the randomness of QM.
What do they do right now in particle physics? They annihilate the vacuum energy from the equations and treat it like noise…but that’s the problem…it’s noise because there’s more down there in the vacuum
What a silly question to waste a man of this calibers time with... Atleast leonard was able to make it interesting. I mean really, I cant think of a more clickbaity elementary level question.
When Mr. Kuhn wake up, We will be much closer to the truth.

We could be given the answer...and choose not to believe it...or maybe we would believe it ...you could have the proof staring right at you and certain people will not believe it ...thats their choice...I know ...this is what is happening right now in this moment of time ...the begining and the end has already happen ....we are just living now in this moment ...this doesnt explain theory of everything ..its just what i have experienced...with nothing to prove to anyone...so there is an explanation ...when in time that will be told ...I dont know .......but it has been told and we may not be ready for it....next level. I feel like I am just here in this moment of time , visiting and observing and now adding my opinion ...if anyone is listening...for what it is worth ...I guess it doesnt matter what I think...it is what it is...knowledge gained through experience....John Locke....time will tell ...time will tell...
A theory of everything which ignores consciousness.
God is the ultimate reality. Pure consciousness within us is God. But we live in a lower consciousness called Ego.
Our science is limited because our senses are limited and unreliable even when aided with instruments. Our thinking is always rooted in basic survival instincts and only tuned to this planet. Many things one hears today still have pre-Copernicus notions, that is that everything is for our benefit. This fear and selfishness we must overcome before we can jump to the next level. But even if we do, Susskind is right that we are unlikely to ever comprehend what we are looking at. And looking is another one of those unreliable tools
Lol the interviewer hates the idea of eternity and "not knowing"
The final theory, is the secrets , which God’s keeps it for himself!
Probably you are correct, but God let me produce the elusive for mainstream science "TOE" - just find the book "Theory of Everything in Physics and The Universe"
Time is infinite both ways which means your perception of time on this planet cannot be measured so you do not really exist to think about these questions in the first place.
There are those who hypothesized that upon death the body and the mind are dropped. The body and the mind are not dropped. The body changes form (Transfigured), leaving it's most dense part behind, but retaining always its outer shell. The mind (not to be confused with the brain) goes with you, too, joining with the spirit and the body as one energy mass of three dimensions, or facets.
You are a three-part being, made of body, mind, and spirit. You will always be a two-part being, not just while you are living on the Earth.
Should you choose to return to this experiencing opportunity that you call life on Earth, your divine Self will once again separate it's TRUE dimensions into what you call body, mind, and spirit. In truth you are all one energy, yet with three distinct characteristics.
As you undertake to inhabit a new physical body here on Earth, your ethereal body (as some of you have termed it) lowers its vibrations - slows itself from a vibration so rapid that it cannot even be seen, to a speed that produces mass and matter. This actual matter is the creation of pure thought - the work of your mind, the higher mind aspect of your three-part being.
This matter is a coagulation of a million billion trillion different energy units into one enormous mass - controllable by the conscious mind.
As these tiny energy units have expanded their energy, they are discarded by the body, while the mind creates new one. This the mind creates out of its continuing thought about Who You Are!
The ethereal body "catches" the thought, so to speak, and lowers the vibration of more energy units (in a sense "crystallizes" them), and they become matter - the new matter of you. In this way, every cell of your body changes every several years. You are - quite literally - not the same person you were a few years ago.
If you think thoughts of illness or disease, your body will translate these thoughts into physical form.
GOD THE FATHER is knowing - the parent of all understanding, the begetter of all experience, for you cannot experience that which you do not know.
GOD THE SON is experiencing - the embodiment, the acting out, of all that the Father knows of Itself, for you cannot be that which you have not experienced.
GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT is being - the disembodiment of all that the Son has experienced of Itself; the simple, exquisite is-ness possible only through the memory of knowing and experiencing.
This simple being is bliss. It is God-state, after knowing and experiencing Itself. It is that for which God yearned in the beginning.
Of course, you are well past the point where you must have it explained to you that the father-son descriptions of God have nothing to do with gender. I use here the picturesque speech of your most recent scriptures. Much earlier holy writings placed this metaphor in a mother-daughter context. Neither is correct. Your mind can best hold the relationship as: parent-offspring. Or: that-which-gives-rise-to, and that-which-is-risen.
Adding the third part of the Trinity produces this relationship:
That which gives rise to / That which is risen / That which is.
This Triune Reality is God's signature. It is the divine pattern. The three-in-one is everywhere found in the realms of the sublime. You cannot escape it in matters dealing with time and space, God and consciousness, or any of the subtle relationships. On the other hand, you will not find the Triune Truth in any of life's gross relationships.
The Triune Truth is recognized in life's subtle relationships by everyone dealing with such relationships. Some of your religions have described the Triune Truth as Father, Son. and Holy Ghost. Some of your psychiatrists use the term super-conscious, conscious, and subconscious. Some of your spiritualists say mind, body, and spirit. Some of your philosophers say a thing is not true for you until it is true in thought, word, and deed. When discussing time, you speak of three times only: past, present, future. Similarly, there are three moments in your perception - before, now, and after. In terms of spatial relationships, whether considering the points in the universe, or various points in your own room, you recognize here, there, and the space in between.
In matters of gross relationships, you recognize no "in-between." That is because gross relationships are always dyads, whereas relationships of the higher realm are invariably triads. Hence, there is left-right, up-down, big-small, fast-slow, hot-cold, and the greatest dyad ever created: Male-Female. There are no in-between in these dyads. A thing is either one thing or the other, or some greater or lesser version in relationship to one of these polarities.
Within the realm of gross relationships, nothing conceptualized can exist without a conceptualization of its opposite. Most of your day-to-day experience is foundationed in this reality.
Within the realm of sublime relationships nothing which exists has an opposite. All is One, and everything progresses from one to the other in a never-ending circle.
Time is such a sublime realm, in which what you call past, present, and future exists inter-relationally. That is, they are not opposites, but rather parts of the same whole; progressions of the same idea; cycles of the same energy; aspects of the same immutable Truth. If you conclude from this that past, present, and future exist at one and the same "time," you are right. (Yet now is not the moment to discuss that. We can get into this in much greater detail when we explore the whole concept of time - which we will do late.)
The world is the way it is because it could not be any other way and still exist in the gross realm of physicality. Earthquakes and hurricanes, floods and tornadoes, and events that you call natural disasters are but movements of the elements from one polarity to the other. The whole birth-death cycle is part of this movement. These are the rhythms of life, and everything in gross reality is subject to them, because life itself is a rhythm. It is a wave, a vibration, a pulsation at the very heart of the All That Is.
Your question infers that I choose these events, that it is My will and desire they should occur. Yet I do not will these things into being. I merely observe you doing so. And I do nothing to stop them, because to do so would be to thwart your will. That, in turn, would deprive you of the God experience, which is the experience you and I have chosen together.
Inquire within, rather than without, asking: "What part of my Self do I wish to experience now in the face of this calamity? What aspect of being do I choose to call forth?" For all life exists as a tool of your own creation, and all of its events merely present themselves as opportunities for you to decide, and be, Who You Are.
This is true for every soul, and so you see there are no victims in the universe, only creators. The Masters who have walked this planet all knew this. That is why, no matter which Master you might name, none imagined themselves to be victimized - though many were truly crucified.
Each soul is a Master - though some do not remember their origins or their heritages. Yet each creates the situation and the circumstance for its own highest purpose and its own quickest remembering - in each moment called now.
Judge not, then, the karmic path walked by another. Envy not success, nor pity failure, for you know not what is success or failure in the soul's reckoning. Call not a thing calamity, nor joyous event, until you decide, or witness, how it is used. For is a death a calamity if it saves the lives of thousands? And is a life a joyous event if it has caused nothing but grief? Yet even this you should not judge, but keep always your own counsel, and allow others theirs.
There once was a soul who knew itself to be the light. This was a new soul, and so, anxious for experience. "I am the light," it said. "I am the light." Yet all the knowing of it and saying of it could not substitute for the experience of it. Now it came to pass that this soul yearned and yearned to know itself. And so great was its yearning that I one day said, "Do you know, Little One, what you must do to satisfy this yearning of yours?"
"Oh, what, God? I'll do anything!" The little soul said.
"You must separate yourself from the rest of us," I answered, "and then you must call upon yourself the darkness."
"What is the darkness, o Holy One?" the little soul asked.
"That which you are not," I replied, and the soul understood.
And so this the soul did, removing itself from the All, yea, going even unto another realm. And in this realm the soul had the power to call into its experience all sorts of darkness. And this it did.
Yet in the midst of all the darkness did it cry out,
"Father, Father, why hast Thou forsaken me?"
Even as you have in your blackest times. Yet I have never forsaken you, but stand by you always, ready to remind you of Who You Really Are; ready, always ready, to call you home.
Therefore, be a light unto the darkness, and curse it not.
And forget not Who You Are in the moment of your encirclement by that which you are not. But do you praise to the creation, even as you seek to change it.
And know that what you do in the time of your greatest trial can be your greatest triumph. For the experience you create is a statement of Who You Are - and Who You Want to Be.
Hehehe ........time is a great benefactor sometimes
A Theory of Everything: 'Everything is Information'.
No my friend, - Information, Consciousness, and Energy. - It will be interesting for you. Just find the book - "Theory of Everything in Physics and The Universe"

@@arendpsa Hello my friend, I can introduce you to the secrets of the Universe, but not here on this platform. Just click my name on Amazon Books and you will find me. Regards, Val
Somehow we little creatures, come from one little sperm, egg. By some incredible “power, “we become trylions of cells. Connections in the brain between cells, etc are more than all of the stars in the universe?.
The "power" is by the replication of cells following the map of DNA, RNA, etc., that was contained by a single sperm cell and a single egg cell. There are less connected cells in the human brain than there are stars in the Universe. Human brain contains about 100 billion connected neurons. The human body is estimated to have about 15 trillion cells. That's a lot. But the universe is mighty big, far larger than we can observe when you take into account Inflation and the accelerated expansion of space in the universe. In just the observable universe there are an estimated 1 billion trillion stars. There's lot more of the universe far beyond the observable horizon. Number of cells in the brain vs number of stars in the universe? The universe wins hands down. The human brain, as remarkable as it is, is kind of like a nearly invisible speck in comparison to the vastness of the entire universe.
Yip, that’s evolution for ya.
@@NightBazaar .
In this case 100 billion ( brain)+ 15 trylion cells being olso connected.
Looks like human body is in certain way it’s own universe. DNA , reproduction? , maybe there is some other “energy “ which works to this incredible growth from sperm , egg.
To understand mystery of universe, we should look at our existence, maybe science, maybe faith.
Cool thoughts :) Perhaps we are not small, maybe medium? We're closer to the planck scale than the Hubble scale. We are big enough that a person or a cat has layers of organization: molecules, cells, tissues, organs, the body, the mind, the subconcious, the conscious...
@@nmarbletoe8210 .
Well all of those cells will become “fertilizer “ when we physically die.
Higher level of can be experienced by evolving spiritually. Soul has to grow up from infant to “adulthood “ during our life time.
Having free will, if we don’t choose to embrace pure love, then we just ate, sleept, made couple kids and died like a dog.
Lawrence Krauss has left the chat.
I’m distracted by Mr. Kuhn’s shiny new cornea in his right eye. Assuming he’s had cataract surgery.
A physicist who uses the word "anywheres" gives this bewildered citizen hope that I might be able to carry on a conversation with him.
A theory of everything is an impossible goal: Gödel's theorem shows it's unachievable at least while we are bounded by and live within a single universe. In practice even just one metaverse amongst many. It's a fool's dream amoungst a ship of single universe or metaverse fools! For you cannot step outside of the universe or metaverse or system of which you are just a part and look over your shoulder to see oh that's how it is!
One day a super intelligent baby may be born who will grow into the greatest mind ever known. It will happen and this great mind will solve the meaning of life.

Scientists give us hope...but many of them with innovations and good ideas have been terrorized.
Unfortunately, I am one of them. - Theory of Everything already exists! Just find the book - "Theory of Everything in Physics and The Universe" It wort to know how the Universe really is structured!
