Are the electrons not spinning right from the time when the first atoms were formed? "The first “atoms” in the universe were not atoms at all—they were just nuclei that had not found electrons yet. The simplest nucleus, that of common hydrogen, is a bare proton with no frills. When the universe...

It is a cloudy term, generally connected with things other than daily run of life.

Denial of God, soul and religion does not mean the end of what we term as 'spirituality'. It only removes superstition. Yeah, every atom has been alive for 13.78 billion year (except those which we turned into energy :)). In what way is it boring? At least, I find it fascinatingly interesting.

I never had old merits, will not accumulate new. Seems you do not understand 'anatta'. Add: You can't put your foot again in the same river. Add: You are born anew every moment.

I saw it. That is why I said 'Nice 'word-salad''.

Nice. That is when we should take help of science. It brings us closer to the truth. It is independent of our consciousness.

If life is an illusion, then death too is an illusion. Nice 'word-salad' there.

:) I said physical and non-physical are debatable. What is energy as in a particle or a wave? Physical or non-physical? I do not accept this distinction. Things can be physical and at the same time, non-physical.

I neither accept the existence of God nor of any 'God-consciousness'. I have simple views and I am a strong atheist.

True. FB reel? I did not get it. What is that? Oh, I get it now - Facebook. I do not use these. FB, blogs, or even those claim to explain Hinduism may say whatever they want.

Hindu philosophy is many-faceted. This must be understood. What I write is my view of 'Advaita'. It does not invalidate views of others.

You are a Buddhist. I am a Hindu and a Buddhist. What you are saying is plain foolishness. Hinduism does not say that. It wants people always to be active. "Karmani eva adhikārah te maā phaleshu kadaāchana; mā karmaphala-hetuh bhūh mā te saṅgah tu akarmaṇi." Your right extends only to act...

Yeah, I felt that too, but the 'exultation' soon passes away and is replaced by 'samata'.

Yaksha - Yudhishthira Questions and answers: "Nahusha: Who is a brahman? Yudhisthira: One who posses the qualities of truthfulness, charity, forgiveness, good conduct, mercy, and who observes the duties of the brahmans should be considered to be a brahman. Nahusha: These qualities could be...

I am absolutely sure that Gautama never said that. My Buddha was never petty. It must be an interpolation of later times by Bhikkhus.

Yeah, in India we have a lot of volume even without big stages, life at full trot. :D

Brahman sure is the ultimate reality, it is the efficient, eternal, infinite and final cause of all that exists. It always changes and that attribute is changeless. I do not dispute that. But what exactly is that? It is the stuff of the universe. Of that alone, all things in the universe are...

My education too is much below the level to understand 'Casimir's effect'. I report what Wikipedia says. It is related to what Einstein termed as 'Spooky action at a distance'. It is also related to existence and non-existence. Add to my post #36: For Jains, it is 'Anekantavada' (Aneka Anta...

^^^ I have hearing problems and tinnitus, two types of sounds, crickets and a constant humming, sometimes even a third. I hear sound of conversations. I realize that these are created by my brain because it does not receive normal sounds from the environment. It does not bother me and is most...

Which Eastern religions? For Hindus, it is 'maya'; for Buddhists, it is 'anatta'. I am very well within the boundaries of Eastern religions. 'ad poopulum' fallacy. If they don't, how does that affect my views? :D
