The singularity at the center of a black hole lacks all 4 dimensions. Or do you deny that such singularities exist?
I deny that they are complete, absolute singularities.
Becoming aproaches the absolute but never reaches it.
This is like the phenomenon of the Big Bang.
The Big Bang is a near perfection fragmenting again and flowing towards itself. It is incomplete nothingness.
This fragmentation appears as an explosion eminating from the near singularity, as an event horizon.
An existing mind, becoming aware looks back on this event horizon and percieves it as eminating light, energy before it tumbles back into nothingness; it is Nothingness streaming towards Somethingness but never attaining it. In fact Something and Nothing are both concepts denoting the same thing: an absolute. An unnatainable absolute.
There are no abolutes because an absolute would be a complete singularity possesing infinite mass and would absorb everything within itself.
A Back Hole appears to drop out of the temporal continuum because it is nearer to the absolute than the background, due to special circumstances.
a phenomenon appears more massive or more hard when it is closer to the absolute than what is observing it.
Life is also the reaching for completion so, in essence, it is the reaching for its own obsolescence and non-existence.
If we study utopian ideals, such as paradise or nirvana they are defined as lacking suffering and need and temporality. therefore they describe non-existence - Freud's death wish.
A weak mind dreams of non-exisence because it cannot tolerate or cope with it. It's own nothingness frightens it and it seeks identity and substance in imaginaton, escapism and in the other.
A strong mind accepts life and suffering as essential to its existence.
Nieatzche's 'resentiment' is this hatred of one's own temporality. The
overman is defined as the man that has accepted time as his own essence, as necessary.
Life is need; need is suffering.
Therefore to embrace life and existence you must accept the suffering - which is nothing more than matter becoming conscious of the flux or of its own temporality (time discovering itself).
suffering is the universal flux being percieved by a conscious temporality.
To end suffering is to end time, existence, or to end one's own awareness of it, death.

I can understand that it would be timeless because there is no change and therefor no time.
But I do not understand why it would be spaceless? Why does space demand change? What am I missing here?
Michael
Well, space is temporality projecting itself into posibility; in relation to other temporalities or the background flux.
Life is a piece of time attempting to subtract itself from the flux and achieve order in the disordering; it is a cutting away - a Becoming.
This cutting away can then percieve the rest of the flux as an otherness.
Space is the temporality moving in relation to this otherness; it is possibility.
In fact there is no 'here', as there is no 'now', as there is no 'self'.
If there were they would be absolutes.
Everything is possibility and potential.
Space has no points. Man imagines a point to make space comprehensible and to map it and to plan movement. In fact all memory and perception is a simplification and a generalization of what has already occured - even while we believe we are looking forwards we are looking back.
A point is a generalization, as the # 1 is; a projecton of possibility that can never be attained.
This is why there is no Being but everything is a Becoming - temporal.
When you say I will move from here to there, you are Willing a direction since you can never will the end of movement but only gain control over where you direct your movements and energies.You will be moving and changing no matter what, as everything, including unconscious dead matter does.
This movement through unnatainable possibilities is space.
Satyr,
As a mental mathematical exercize.
Imagine a sphere in the center of a universe that is not moving. It exists but is not changing and therefor is timeless.
Mathematically,while it does not change, it is in existence in this imaginary universe.
Correct?
Michael
What you describe here is an absurdity, a self-contradicting undefined nothing. It is like the idea of an intelligent God.
How can there be an intelligent omniscient God when intelligence is a survival tool meant to facilitate and to guide and to help the orgnism live?
What would an imaginary, absurdity, such as a God need with intelligence when it occupies all possibilities and is everything all at once?
Why would such a creature create?
Let us not mention all the other absurdities connected with this idea of God.
God is a projection of the absolute by a creature that lacks it; God is an ideal.
To imagine this sphere of yours you use your temporal and spatial experiences and then you just add that it is not moving. But you have no experience with not-moving, timelessness, since everything moves/changes, slower or faster in realtion to you. what appears stationary to you is just moving at a slower speed in relation to you and in the direction you are heading.
See relativity. The speed of your movement is the increase of temporality towards one dimensn, which is accompanied by a decreae in every other dimensional direction. In other owrds your spatial dimension increase or decrease, as possibilities, when you increase one temporal dirction (speed) and decrease another.
This is why a singularity is characterized by a decrase in temporality in all diections, since it is reaching a near absolute state and dropping pout of the temporal continuum, in relation to the observer.
But a sphere not moving is non-existent, you cannot imagine a Nothing.
a spere is a temporal phenomenon. To imagine it lacking temporality is to speak of something you cannot define.
