What self-awareness means?



Cogito Ergo Sum (I think; therefore I am) 

René Descartes

Our existence is at the center of our life. Somebody might blame me for that "me-centric" way to see things. But who is in the middle of our life? Or who is the main character in our life? That character is the thing who is the thing that reads this text without moving lips. When we are thinking that we are the center of our own life we must understand one thing. 

If something happens to us, the only person who feels that thing is we or I, if we are thinking only of ourselves. If somebody says that we are idiots, we have the right to feel bad about that thing. We have the right to have bad days. And if somebody is acting like we air, we have the right to feel offended. We don't have to smile and feel good if somebody is bullying us. 

If somebody acts like we are garbage, we have the right to feel bad. Even that person is boss we must not like everything that those persons are saying. If we get a speeding ticket, we must not smile at the police even that person is working for the state. We have the right to feel bad in that situation. 

Sometimes people are thinking that people just sitting and staring at walls are not doing anything important. There are always better ways to waste time than just staring at the wall and concentrate on the abyss. During we are string the wall we are concentrating on the thing that is making humans so superior. That thing is called thinking. Thinking is existence and thinking is the consciousness existence of the person.

Cogito Ergo Sum said philosopher René Descartes once. In English that thing means I think; therefore I exist. Maybe that quote came into the mind of that philosopher when somebody asked him are you existed? And how do you know that you exist? How do people know that they exist? The answer that René Descartes gave was that the reason why he existed was that he thought. He thought and realized his existence so that meant he exists. 

Existence is right to have own space.  But when the idea of existence and thinking came in the mind of Descartes that thing caused probably one induction thought. How do we know that things that we are thinking are real? They are real to the thinker. But they are not probably the same way as real to other people. We know that there is no absolute reality. Our senses are things that are causing that the observations that we are getting are always unique. 

But the experiences that we have are also coloring our way to see things. And one thing that we should see is that we exist. Our existence is one thing in our life that we are not thinking about too often. We are not realizing that our existence is the center of our life. Everything that happens to us happens to us, not the person who stands next to us. If something hurts somebody else that thing is not happening to me. That thing happens to that other guy. Same way if somebody or something hurts me would not hurt the person next to me.

Schrödinger's cat: and the limits of that idea.

"In quantum mechanics, Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment concerning quantum superposition". (Wikipedia, Schrödinger's cat). But the same thing can use as model for many other thought experiments.  Sooner or later, or at least in the ultimate end of the universe, the Schrödinger's cat will turn into wave movement. The information that this cat involved exists but the cat does not exist in its material form. The information doesn't ever vanish. It just turns its shape.  We are all trapped in the universe and time. The universe is the space that is entirety to us. There are no confirmed other universities. But the multiverse is a logical continuum for the expanding galactic megastructures.  The problem with natural things is this. They are black and white. They exist or do not exist. Could there be something, that exists and not exists at the same time?  Scrödinger's cat is thinking experiment about case their cat is not dead or not alive. But in this...

The string theory offers a new way to calculate Pi.

"Scientists discovered a new series for pi through string theory research, echoing a 15th-century formula by Madhava. By combining Euler-Beta Functions and Feynman Diagrams, they modeled particle interactions efficiently. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, String Theory Unravels New Pi Formula: A Quantum Leap in Mathematics) People normally think that. The pi is the ratio of the circumference circle's circumference to the circle's diameter. The Pi is a mathematical constant 3.14159..., the endless decimal number. The Pi is interesting because developers can use that decimal number to make the encryption algorithms stronger.  The idea is that the encryptions program hides the message's original ASCII numbers by multiplicating those numbers with some decimal number. Or the system can add some numbers to those ASCII numbers.  "Aninda Sinha (left) and Arnab Saha (right). Credit: Manu Y" (ScitechDaily, String Theory Unravels New Pi Formula: A Quantum Le...

There are always more than three actors in the real world.

"An international research team is advancing precision timekeeping by developing a nuclear clock using thorium isotopes and innovative laser methods, potentially transforming our understanding of physical constants and dark matter. (Artist’s concept.) Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Unveiling the Thorium Nuclear Clock and Its Time-Twisting Secrets) From Three-body problem... There are no pure three-body systems in nature. There are always more than three components in the system. For making real three-body systems we must separate those three bodies from the environment. Otherwise, there are stable effects. But nobody can predict some effects like distant supernova explosions or sun eruptions.  And one of those things that affect all bodies is time. When radioactive materials decay. That affects the stability and symmetry of the object.  Energy levels affect the existence of things like neutrons. The thorium atom clocks are next-generation tools for time measurement....
