Theory of Time

For some time I did not contribute to the blog I am having a site lalsilva.com I am trying to add more and more ideas to this site and in the end I may write a book on my ideas.

Theory of Time - There is only one dimension in the universe, it is time. Time is the only dimension that is independent of an observer. One of the main characteristics of time is that no two event happens at the same instant – simultaneity is nonexistent. This way infinite number of events can happen between any two events. Suppose there exists two supernova explosions happening at the same time. In a supernova explosion extremely large number of events takes place within a very tiny time space. In the time scale one event of first super nova can happen and the next event in the time scale may be an event of the other supernova. These two supernovas may be millions of light years apart.

Another important aspect of this theory is that time is not a continuous flow of events but it is also not a fixed number of events. Infinite number of events can happen between any two events.

Consider a simple experiment where a light photon is emitted from one jump of an electron in one atom and subsequent absorption of this photon by another electron in an other atom. We usually think there need to be space for the two atoms to exist, there is a distance between the two atoms and light needs to travel in a straight line from one atom to the other. When we think more deeply we find all these requirements are requirements of the observer. And nothing to do with one electron of an atom emitting a photon and another electron of another atom absorbing it. In our thinking we have jumbled up both sets of events together. Now we need to separate it to two sets, one for the benefit of the observer and the other basic happenings of the event or events.

The human brain is very closely bound with the observer. It is almost impossible to the two. This is why philosophers ask the question is everything that happens is all inside your brain. But obviously the moon being in the sky cannot be something that is in our brain.

This theory does not even contradict quantum entanglement. The observer measures a certain attribute of a particle at a certain instant, a different observer measuring the opposite attribute will arrive exactly the opposite of the original measurement. It should be noted here that there is no need for the two measurements to happen at the same instant. The second measurement can be any time after the first.
