Commenter Glen Magnussen had this to say:
Very interesting discussions, but why is it that every time there is a western point of view in science we talk like we invented gravity and that it was not understood before newton, or the vastness of space not being contemplated or understood at all. Look at ancient knowledge in most parts of the world and they are shaking their heads at the western unwillingness to combine the different parts of knowledge about our existence as a part of the cosmos.
Not saying that I’am not impressed about all the magnificent technology that’s been developed to discover vast parts of the reachable Universe from our dimension. But I can’t help to feel that the more science develops the more it seems like it’s starting to get very similar to a lot of ancient and commonplace knowledge from Indian culture and views on life and existence. Einstein often immersed him self with the magnificent philosophies of the Vedas and got a lot of inspiration from them. They already had sophisticated ideas about Quantum mechanics where the modern theory got it’s inspiration from also.
Why are we not letting go of narrow mindedness and embrace all these different notions from around the world in a real testable environment or mathematical properties around notions that are foreign to western views but have some really interesting and probable ideas when it’s decoded trough the language it is spoken? Often what is refereed to as goods or strange creatures in old tales represent sound scientific notions and properties.
This is not really a direct comment to the above video it self, but please come with some constructive feedback. And above all if your not aware of these things I am talking about, then please do investigate the subject your self and you might be very surprised and amazed. All I am really saying is that it is very important to have a mind that’s open to investigate all notions of our existence, think that will be the breakthrough of understanding when we invite all the puzzle’s together and try to make sense of it.
Are they onto something and will this be the future of visualizing the universe?
