00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:07,000
The Illusion of Matter and Reality

2
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:29,000
Human beings devote almost their entire lives to the pursuit of material gain.

3
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:37,000
In the hope of living a more comfortable and prosperous life, they often rush through daily routines without thinking.

4
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:43,000
But does this matter we constantly chase truly exist?

5
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:57,000
Do the beautiful houses, luxury cars, the latest smartphones that we work so hard to obtain throughout our lives actually exist?

6
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:06,000
Or are they, like the images we see in our dreams, nothing more than representations formed in our minds?

7
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:14,000
And could it be that, without realizing it, we are actually living in a simulation?

8
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:24,000
What is Matter?

9
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:29,000
What is Matter?

10
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:41,000
The true nature of matter, the fact that matter is not actually made of matter, is now a scientifically proven fact.

11
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:51,000
Quantum physics has overturned all materialist assumptions by demonstrating that matter can transform into energy,

12
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:57,000
and by showing that an object can exist in more than one place at the same time.

13
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:10,000
The renowned physicist Fred Alan Wolfe describes this truth about matter not being what materialists claim it to be in the following words.

14
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:15,000
What makes up things are not more things.

15
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:31,000
What makes up things are ideas, concepts, information.

16
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:40,000
When we step into the world of quantum, we realize how fragile the reality we take for granted truly is.

17
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:45,000
Light behaves both like matter and like a wave.

18
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:52,000
This particle, known as the photon, travels through space as an energy wave.

19
00:02:52,000 --> 00:03:01,000
Yet when it encounters an obstacle, it behaves as if it were a physical object, revealing itself as tiny particles.

20
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:07,000
This astonishing discovery marked the birth of modern physics.

21
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:13,000
Beginning with Max Planck, it was developed by some of the greatest minds in scientific history.

22
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:29,000
Albert Einstein, Niels Bohr, Louis de Broglie, Erwin Schrödinger, Werner Heisenberg, Paul Dirac, and Wolfgang Pauli.

23
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:34,000
Each of them was awarded the Nobel Prize for these revolutionary discoveries.

24
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:40,000
It was Louis de Broglie's discovery that truly changed everything.

25
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:47,000
He demonstrated that in the subatomic world, not only particles exist, waves do as well.

26
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:58,000
He also proved that electrons, protons, and everything we perceive as matter are, at their core, energy waves.

27
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:03,000
At this point, the materialist perspective was shaken.

28
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:11,000
Because the foundation of the understanding that matter is an absolute reality had collapsed.

29
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:21,000
The interior of the atom was not solid, as once imagined, but a sea of vibrations, something that bore no resemblance to matter.

30
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:28,000
Particles sometimes became visible, sometimes transformed into waves and virtually disappeared.

31
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:37,000
In short, the concept of absolute matter had transformed into an abstract flow of energy.

32
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:43,000
This was a profound revolution.

33
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:51,000
quantum physics revealed that what we called the real world is, in fact, a reflection, a plane of perception.

34
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:54,000
Matter was not as solid as we thought.

35
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:58,000
Reality itself was shaped by observation.

36
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:08,000
One of the directors of the Max Planck Institute, Professor Hans-Peter Derr, summarized this truth with a striking statement.

37
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:17,000
Matter, whatever it may be, is not made of matter.

38
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:35,000
Dreams and Feelings

39
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:42,000
To better understand the reality of matter, let's pause for a moment and look at dreams.

40
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,000
There is a world in our dreams as well.

41
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:53,000
There, we walk, talk, touch walls, and feel the wind.

42
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:58,000
Everything is real.

43
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:01,000
But until we wake up.

44
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:13,000
But in fact, all those images, sounds, and feelings are created entirely within our minds, even though they do not exist in any way outside.

45
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:16,000
The dream body.

46
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,000
Dream house.

47
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:21,000
Dream cities that we believe to be real.

48
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:27,000
Are all just electrical signals processed in our brain.

49
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:32,000
Interestingly, the same process occurs in daily life.

50
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:40,000
Light, sound, and touch signals from the outside world are also processed in our brain.

51
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:45,000
We cannot know if there is a real counterpart in the outside world.

52
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:52,000
Technically, there is no difference between dreams and real life.

53
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:55,000
Both are formed in the brain.

54
00:06:55,000 --> 00:07:00,000
In short, humans only interact with their perceptions.

55
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:07,000
Whatever they see, hear, or feel is a perception formed within themselves.

56
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:12,000
In reality, they cannot go beyond these perceptions.

57
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:18,000
Because all the scenes they see are images specifically presented to the soul.

58
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:22,000
There is no proof of the existence of matter.

59
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:28,000
Everything we perceive with our five senses is merely a perception formed in our brain.

60
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:34,000
Therefore, it is never possible for us to directly access the world outside our brain.

61
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:49,000
When we dream, we cannot understand that what we experience is not real.

62
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:55,000
Just as we find it difficult to accept that what we see now, while living in this world,

63
00:07:55,000 --> 00:08:02,000
is merely an illusion formed in our mind.

64
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:08,000
However, the way we perceive the images we call real life is exactly the same as in dreams.

65
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:13,000
In both cases, the image is formed in our brain.

66
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:17,000
The same signals activate the same centers in the brain.

67
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:31,000
In respect of formation and reality, there is no difference between the image in a dream and the image we call real.

68
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:36,000
We doubt the reality of the image in neither case while watching them.

69
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:40,000
What about what we see right now?

70
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:46,000
A person who dreams of walking through a field of sunflowers

71
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:52,000
realizes she is in fact lying in own bed.

72
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:55,000
When we wake up from a dream, we can say,

73
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:58,000
It was all just a dream.

74
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:04,000
So, how can we prove that what we see now is not a dream?

75
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:10,000
Actually, we cannot prove it.

76
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:15,000
Whether it's a dream or it's the real life, a person perceives the same images.

77
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:27,000
So, all beings are merely images.

78
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,000
A reality shown to us like a movie scene.

79
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:34,000
But we are not who makes this movie.

80
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:39,000
Then, who creates this flawless movie of reality?

81
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:44,000
Who creates this universe?

82
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,000
Vivid in every detail.

83
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:47,000
Colorful.

84
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:48,000
Audible.

85
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:52,000
And tangible.

86
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,000
That is the real question.

87
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:59,000
Who is the creator of this perfect reality we watch in our minds?

88
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:02,000
The answer is clear and unequivocal.

89
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:09,000
It is our almighty Lord, God, who creates everything from nothing at any moment.

90
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:13,000
Who creates everything just with a command of Be.

91
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:25,000
God, the creator of all things, the possessor of infinite power and might, informs us of this truth in the Quran as follows.

92
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:34,000
I seek refuge in God, from the accursed Satan, the originator of the heavens and earth.

93
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:40,000
When he decides on something, he just says to it, Be, and it is.

94
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:41,000
When he לא dies.

95
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:42,000
еромs.

96
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:47,000
What happens in the near-sudbin and earth has an invented using她's miracle?

97
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:48,000
And it is known as hell.

98
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,000
All beings.

99
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:51,000
Think about how they have anger.

100
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:52,000
Okay.

101
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:53,000
Have a look around yourself.

102
00:10:53,000 --> 00:11:03,420
Have a look around yourself.

103
00:11:04,140 --> 00:11:07,080
What a colorful, vibrant world there is.

104
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:09,560
The sky is blue.

105
00:11:10,460 --> 00:11:11,640
The sea turquoise.

106
00:11:12,460 --> 00:11:13,980
The flowers multicolored.

107
00:11:15,140 --> 00:11:17,820
A scene painted with thousands of shades of light.

108
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,460
It is impossible to go unamazed.

109
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:27,860
All these are endless reasons and beauties granted to us to thank God.

110
00:11:29,860 --> 00:11:34,780
What if I told you that there is actually no light outside of our minds?

111
00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:37,000
Lamps.

112
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:41,540
Car headlights.

113
00:11:45,020 --> 00:11:46,240
Neon signs.

114
00:11:48,180 --> 00:11:49,820
Even the sun in the sky.

115
00:11:49,820 --> 00:11:58,220
It might be difficult to believe that these things do not actually emit light in the sense we know.

116
00:12:00,680 --> 00:12:04,620
We perceive the outside world through the presence of light.

117
00:12:04,620 --> 00:12:09,880
However, reality is much different than we imagine.

118
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:15,480
In fact, there is no light in the outside world.

119
00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:20,860
What we call light is merely a perception created within our brains.

120
00:12:20,860 --> 00:12:36,400
It is the interpretation of the signals that come to our eyes what appears us as a bright world.

121
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:39,760
The technical explanation is quite simple.

122
00:12:42,260 --> 00:12:46,700
The sun and other light sources emit electromagnetic particles.

123
00:12:46,700 --> 00:12:50,900
Or photons of various wavelengths.

124
00:12:52,560 --> 00:12:54,600
These photons spread throughout the universe.

125
00:12:55,500 --> 00:13:00,920
However, these particles themselves are not light, but merely packets of energy.

126
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:06,120
Just like radio waves, infrared and ultraviolet rays are.

127
00:13:07,020 --> 00:13:11,420
Some of these particles are so heavy and they carry so much energy

128
00:13:11,420 --> 00:13:18,700
that they often shatter the molecule they collide with and continue on their path without much deviation.

129
00:13:18,700 --> 00:13:23,140
This is the underlying reason why radiation causes cancer.

130
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:27,020
Weaker types are used in X-ray machines.

131
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:33,660
What an X-ray machine does is to convert invisible waves into visible light.

132
00:13:34,380 --> 00:13:39,140
In other words, the image is actually an artificial perception created by the device.

133
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:43,120
This example shows that light only exists

134
00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:48,780
when it is perceived by the eye and interpreted by the brain.

135
00:13:49,900 --> 00:13:54,800
Just as technological devices capture invisible subatomic particles

136
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:57,560
and convert them into images on a screen,

137
00:13:58,560 --> 00:14:04,740
the human brain perceives electrical signals triggered by photons as images through chemical reactions.

138
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:08,800
Outside, there is no light in the sense we define it.

139
00:14:09,540 --> 00:14:10,620
Everything is transparent.

140
00:14:10,620 --> 00:14:14,360
What we call light is entirely perception.

141
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:22,340
Humans did not create this perception system of their own volition.

142
00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:29,180
Our sensory organs were specially created for us to be grateful.

143
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:35,560
Our Lord draws attention to this truth in the Holy Quran as follows.

144
00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:41,560
I seek refuge in God from the accursed Satan.

145
00:14:44,420 --> 00:14:44,980
Say,

146
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:50,240
It is he who brought you into being and gave you hearing, sight and hearts.

147
00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:52,720
What little thanks you show.

148
00:14:52,720 --> 00:15:03,740
Now, let's talk about color.

149
00:15:06,740 --> 00:15:08,920
Have you ever thought about colors?

150
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:16,080
Actually, there is no such thing as color in the outside world.

151
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:18,920
No object has its own color.

152
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:23,380
Color is merely an interpretation produced in our brains.

153
00:15:24,380 --> 00:15:26,700
To have a better understanding of this,

154
00:15:27,300 --> 00:15:30,400
let's examine how our computers interpret colors.

155
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:36,000
Computers only work with electrical currents.

156
00:15:38,140 --> 00:15:42,800
Have you ever wondered about that vibrant yellow hue you see when you look at a lemon?

157
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:49,360
Does lemon yellow really exist in the real world?

158
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:54,960
And when a lemon is displayed on our computer monitors,

159
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:58,000
assuming no paint is seeping through the wires,

160
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:01,680
how exactly is that yellow produced?

161
00:16:04,260 --> 00:16:05,700
Let's take a closer look.

162
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:09,240
Zoom in on the lemon image on your screen.

163
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:14,560
You'll see that the color yellow is actually made up of countless tiny pixels.

164
00:16:15,980 --> 00:16:18,160
Each pixel contains three tiny lights.

165
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:21,680
Red, green, and blue.

166
00:16:23,700 --> 00:16:25,280
Billions of times per second,

167
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:28,280
an electric current flows through computer cables.

168
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:32,360
The language of these currents is quite simple.

169
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:35,260
Low voltage is zero.

170
00:16:36,100 --> 00:16:38,540
High voltage is one.

171
00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:41,480
In other words,

172
00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:43,840
just present or absent.

173
00:16:46,780 --> 00:16:51,020
These ones and zeros are converted into numbers by the processor.

174
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:57,200
And these numbers determine how brightly each color light in the pixel on the screen will shine,

175
00:16:57,820 --> 00:17:02,220
with values ranging from zero to 255.

176
00:17:02,220 --> 00:17:09,280
Thus, new colors can be created from the mixture of red, green, and blue.

177
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:14,020
In the case of the lemon example,

178
00:17:14,020 --> 00:17:16,760
the computer gives the following command.

179
00:17:16,820 --> 00:17:19,140
Red, 255.

180
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:20,860
Green, 250.

181
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:23,320
Blue, 205.

182
00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:38,360
And when we look, we see that the electricity coming through the cables is interpreted and displayed as yellow.

183
00:17:38,360 --> 00:17:47,020
Our computers are pre-programmed to interpret electrical currents at certain values as yellow.

184
00:17:47,020 --> 00:17:52,820
So, what is real in this case is how the electricity is interpreted.

185
00:17:52,820 --> 00:17:57,600
The yellow itself is not real.

186
00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:59,680
The yellow itself is not real.

187
00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:05,640
What about our brains?

188
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:09,580
The human brain behaves in a similar way.

189
00:18:09,580 --> 00:18:12,300
When we look at a lemon,

190
00:18:12,300 --> 00:18:14,820
the photons reflected from it,

191
00:18:14,820 --> 00:18:17,920
which are not actually the colors themselves, that is,

192
00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:22,160
light particles hit our eyes,

193
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:25,120
stimulate the cells in the retina,

194
00:18:25,120 --> 00:18:29,300
and these stimuli are converted into electrical signals.

195
00:18:30,700 --> 00:18:32,980
Our brain interprets these signals

196
00:18:32,980 --> 00:18:35,580
and assigns a meaning to that wavelength.

197
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:37,320
And the brain says,

198
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:42,020
the defined counterpart of this electrical current in me is yellow.

199
00:18:48,980 --> 00:18:50,100
In reality,

200
00:18:50,900 --> 00:18:51,980
neither lemons are yellow,

201
00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:53,460
nor does light have a color.

202
00:18:55,120 --> 00:19:00,120
Everything we see is nothing more than the interpretation of electrical signals,

203
00:19:00,120 --> 00:19:02,120
along with all their details.

204
00:19:03,120 --> 00:19:06,120
The electrical signals that reach our brains from our eyes

205
00:19:06,120 --> 00:19:08,120
are made meaningful for us.

206
00:19:09,120 --> 00:19:13,120
These signals are constantly recreated as colors in our minds.

207
00:19:15,120 --> 00:19:16,120
In reality,

208
00:19:16,120 --> 00:19:18,120
everything is transparent.

209
00:19:20,120 --> 00:19:23,120
Neither electric current nor photons have color.

210
00:19:23,120 --> 00:19:26,120
colors are constantly being recreated in our brains.

211
00:19:26,120 --> 00:19:31,120
The lemon we think that we see is actually an image created in our minds.

212
00:19:35,120 --> 00:19:36,120
It is God,

213
00:19:36,120 --> 00:19:37,120
the Lord of the worlds,

214
00:19:37,120 --> 00:19:41,120
who created this perfect order and determined colors for us.

215
00:19:41,120 --> 00:19:47,120
God draws attention to this subject in the Qur'an as follows.

216
00:19:50,120 --> 00:19:53,120
I seek refuge in God from the accursed Satan.

217
00:19:53,120 --> 00:19:54,120
God's color.

218
00:19:54,120 --> 00:19:55,120
God's color.

219
00:19:55,120 --> 00:19:56,120
And what color could be better than God's?

220
00:19:56,120 --> 00:19:58,120
It is Him we worship.

221
00:19:58,120 --> 00:19:59,120
God's color.

222
00:19:59,120 --> 00:20:00,120
God's color.

223
00:20:00,120 --> 00:20:01,120
And what color could be better than God's?

224
00:20:01,120 --> 00:20:02,120
God's.

225
00:20:02,120 --> 00:20:03,120
It is Him we worship.

226
00:20:03,120 --> 00:20:04,120
God's color.

227
00:20:04,120 --> 00:20:05,120
God's color.

228
00:20:05,120 --> 00:20:06,120
And what color could be better than God's color.

229
00:20:06,120 --> 00:20:07,120
God's color.

230
00:20:07,120 --> 00:20:08,120
And what color could be better than the Lord of the world?

231
00:20:08,120 --> 00:20:09,120
It is the same.

232
00:20:09,120 --> 00:20:10,120
God's color.

233
00:20:10,120 --> 00:20:11,120
God's color.

234
00:20:11,120 --> 00:20:28,540
Sound is actually a vibration that does not exist at all.

235
00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:35,180
It is an electrical signal created when waves in the air strike the small bones in our ears.

236
00:20:35,180 --> 00:20:42,760
Neither a note has any real existence, nor does a melody have a shape that travels through the air.

237
00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:50,000
We actually hear those sounds, that music, inside our brains.

238
00:20:53,140 --> 00:20:54,740
The tone of an instrument.

239
00:20:57,180 --> 00:20:58,900
The voice of a person.

240
00:20:58,900 --> 00:21:05,160
They are all just signals interpreted in our brains.

241
00:21:05,940 --> 00:21:08,900
There is actually no sound outside our brain.

242
00:21:09,580 --> 00:21:11,100
Absolute silence reigns.

243
00:21:11,900 --> 00:21:17,080
What exists in the external world are merely physical vibrations called sound waves.

244
00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:25,800
The transformation of these vibrations into meaningful sound occurs not outside or in our ears, but within our brain.

245
00:21:26,420 --> 00:21:29,880
Thus, there is no music actually playing outside.

246
00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:40,920
It plays inside us.

247
00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:46,300
In the Quran, God says,

248
00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:51,280
I seek refuge in God from the accursed Satan.

249
00:21:54,720 --> 00:22:04,560
Everything in the heavens and everything in the earth glorifies God, the sovereign, the holy, the almighty, the wise.

250
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:11,620
There is a rhythm in every point of the universe.

251
00:22:12,660 --> 00:22:16,540
Atoms, stars, hearts.

252
00:22:19,120 --> 00:22:21,900
All are part of the same divine orchestra.

253
00:22:24,900 --> 00:22:27,060
Everything ceaselessly glorifies God.

254
00:22:27,060 --> 00:22:32,740
I seek refuge in God from the accursed Satan.

255
00:22:36,020 --> 00:22:42,560
Do they make things into partner gods which cannot create anything and are themselves created?

256
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:53,080
Touch.

257
00:22:57,060 --> 00:23:00,580
Just think about it.

258
00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:04,620
You reach out your hand and feel that touching something.

259
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:11,980
But are you really touching it?

260
00:23:16,620 --> 00:23:19,740
Physically touching something is actually impossible.

261
00:23:19,740 --> 00:23:23,860
Think of a basketball player.

262
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:27,280
They appear to be holding the ball tightly with both hands.

263
00:23:27,940 --> 00:23:32,780
Their fingers touch the surface of the ball as if they are gripping it by applying pressure.

264
00:23:33,860 --> 00:23:36,820
However, this is just an illusion.

265
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:43,620
In reality, the atoms on the player's fingers never touch the atoms on the ball.

266
00:23:43,620 --> 00:23:49,420
As atoms approach each other, the electrons surrounding them also approach each other.

267
00:23:50,460 --> 00:23:54,360
At that moment, the electromagnetic force comes into play.

268
00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:58,460
The electrons repel each other via virtual photons.

269
00:23:58,460 --> 00:24:06,560
And this repulsion is so strong that it is impossible for two atoms to actually touch each other.

270
00:24:07,260 --> 00:24:11,960
So, her fingers holding the ball do not actually touch the ball's surface.

271
00:24:12,460 --> 00:24:18,180
It is only the repulsive force between atoms that creates a sense of contact in our brains.

272
00:24:18,180 --> 00:24:22,600
At that moment, we think we are touching something.

273
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:29,500
However, what we call touch is only an electrical signal interpreted by the brain.

274
00:24:30,340 --> 00:24:37,920
That being the case, it would not be wrong to say we have never truly touched single thing in our entire lives.

275
00:24:38,620 --> 00:24:41,940
This physical reality leads us to a deeper truth.

276
00:24:41,940 --> 00:24:49,720
Everything we think we touch is actually just a perception formed in our brain.

277
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:57,400
One might approach senses of sight, hearing, and smell with skepticism.

278
00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:04,960
But the sense of touch gives the impression that the outside world truly exists.

279
00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:12,660
However, in reality, touch, like other senses, is a signal generated in the brain.

280
00:25:13,780 --> 00:25:20,300
If the brain doesn't receive that signal, even if a person touches a substance, they cannot feel it.

281
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:31,320
I seek refuge in God, from the accursed Satan.

282
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:39,600
The skins of those who fear their Lord, tremble at it, and then their skins.

283
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:44,460
And hearts yield softly to the remembrance of God.

284
00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:57,840
What about the pain that we feel?

285
00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:02,680
Pain feels so real, doesn't it?

286
00:26:05,980 --> 00:26:08,820
When we bump our knee, we feel that ache instantly.

287
00:26:10,020 --> 00:26:12,500
It's as if the pain is coming from inside our knee.

288
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:17,080
Yet scientifically, the situation is very different.

289
00:26:18,360 --> 00:26:22,420
At the moment of impact, the nerve endings under the skin are stimulated.

290
00:26:22,420 --> 00:26:31,820
These stimuli become electrical signals and are transmitted to the brain, to the pain center via the spinal cord.

291
00:26:32,540 --> 00:26:34,320
The brain interprets these signals.

292
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:40,880
In other words, the location, intensity, and form of the pain are formed in the brain.

293
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:50,780
However, the electrical signals reaching the brain are coded in such a way that we perceive the pain as coming from a specific part of the body.

294
00:26:51,460 --> 00:26:55,700
In reality, there is no consciousness in that area that feels the pain.

295
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:58,400
Our knee is not even aware of its own pain.

296
00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:08,580
If pain is only generated inside the brain, then who suffers?

297
00:27:08,580 --> 00:27:14,420
Is it your body that you see in the mirror that is suffering?

298
00:27:14,980 --> 00:27:20,100
Or is it your soul that observes the electrical currents within your brain as images?

299
00:27:20,100 --> 00:27:28,280
Just like the images we see, the pains we feel are also perceptions generated in the brain.

300
00:27:29,060 --> 00:27:39,180
With the interpretation of different electrical signals, in the brain at the same time, both the image of falling and the sensation of pain occurs.

301
00:27:39,860 --> 00:27:46,480
Just like the images that we see, the pain we feel is also a perception produced within the brain.

302
00:27:50,100 --> 00:27:55,440
In other words, we both see our knee hit something and feel the pain of knee.

303
00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:02,860
Yet both of these experiences occur at the same center, which is our brain.

304
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:08,460
However, neither the knee hurts nor the image suffers.

305
00:28:11,740 --> 00:28:19,140
Both the pain and the image are perfect perceptions created by God in our brain, just like a dream scene.

306
00:28:20,100 --> 00:28:28,160
Every pain, every feeling, every sensation is a miracle specially created by God.

307
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:36,740
I seek refuge in God, from the accursed Satan.

308
00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:44,600
God brought you out of your mother's wombs, knowing nothing at all,

309
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:51,980
and gave you hearing, sight, and hearts, so that perhaps you would show thanks.

310
00:28:51,980 --> 00:28:53,660
Thank you.

311
00:28:58,660 --> 00:29:00,640
Taste.

312
00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:11,400
Taste is...

313
00:29:12,020 --> 00:29:14,600
One of the most enjoyable senses in our lives.

314
00:29:18,700 --> 00:29:19,920
A piece of chocolate.

315
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:26,920
a fresh lemon,

316
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:34,920
or your favorite fruit.

317
00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:40,920
All of them carry an almost unreal happiness on the tip of our tongue.

318
00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:48,920
But have you ever wondered where these tastes actually originate?

319
00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:53,920
Let's take a look together.

320
00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:58,920
There are four basic chemical receptors on the human tongue.

321
00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:03,920
Sweet,

322
00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:09,920
salty,

323
00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:15,920
bitter,

324
00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:20,920
and sour.

325
00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:27,920
Just as countless colors appear on computer screens through the combination of red, green and blue in different proportions.

326
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:36,920
Similarly, different combinations of these four taste receptors on our tongue create thousands of distinct taste sensations.

327
00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:49,920
These receptors detect the chemical substances in the food we put in our mouths with every bite and convert them into electrical signals through a series of complex processes.

328
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:54,920
When these signals reach the brain, the brain interprets them.

329
00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:58,920
And this is what we call taste.

330
00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:06,920
When you eat a slice of cake, the image of the cake formed in your brain is combined with the sweetness signal formed in your brain.

331
00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:12,920
When these two perceptions combine, the feeling that makes you enjoy that cake emerges.

332
00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:25,920
While you are eagerly eating the cake, the only thing happening on your tongue is the conversion of a few chemicals into electrical signals.

333
00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:30,920
The taste experience actually occurs entirely in your brain.

334
00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:35,920
So, you never directly perceive objects in the external world.

335
00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:40,920
You cannot see, smell, or taste the lemon itself.

336
00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:53,920
You only perceive how your brain interprets that object.

337
00:31:53,920 --> 00:32:05,920
If your taste buds were to stop working for even a moment, your brain would never be able to taste it even if you ate your favorite food in the world.

338
00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:10,920
And your sense of taste would be completely lost.

339
00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:17,920
Don't be taken in by how vivid and real the taste of everything you eat feels.

340
00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:25,920
All the flavors you think you taste are nothing, but a perfect perception created in your brain.

341
00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:28,920
Here is what scientific facts tell us.

342
00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:35,920
What we call taste is not the external world itself, but the meaning our mind assigns to it.

343
00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:43,920
In reality, nothing is inherently salty, sweet, sour, or bitter.

344
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:54,920
What we call taste arises when electrical signals generated by the tongue receptors that detect chemicals in food reach the brain.

345
00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:59,920
And the brain interprets these signals.

346
00:32:59,920 --> 00:33:04,920
Things we eat actually has no real taste.

347
00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:11,920
For example, bitterness is actually a perception that is already present in your brain.

348
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:17,920
When electrical signals corresponding to the sensation of bitterness reach the brain from the tongue,

349
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:20,920
the brain interprets these signals, and you think,

350
00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:24,920
yes, this pepper is really hot.

351
00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:32,920
It is God, the Lord of the worlds, the possessor of infinite power and strength,

352
00:33:32,920 --> 00:34:00,920
who created this perfect system of taste perception, allowing us to perceive all varieties of tastes, sweet, salty, sour, bitter, and many more with all their subtleties.

353
00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:10,920
I seek refuge in God from the accursed Satan.

354
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:23,920
It is he who produces gardens, both cultivated and wild, and palm trees and crops of diverse kinds, and olives and pomegranates, both similar and dissimilar.

355
00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:31,920
Eat of their fruits when they bear fruit, and pay their due on the day of their harvest, and do not be profligate.

356
00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:33,920
He does not love the profligate.

357
00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:34,920
Smell.

358
00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:47,920
If you ask someone, how do you smell?

359
00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:54,920
They will most likely answer, with my nose.

360
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:57,920
However, this is not as accurate as we think.

361
00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:07,920
Gordon Shepard, a professor of neurology at Yale University, explains this as follows.

362
00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:26,920
We think we smell with our nose, but it's like saying we hear with our earlobes.

363
00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:41,920
Our sense of smell operates on the same basic principles as our other senses.

364
00:35:41,920 --> 00:36:04,920
The visible part of the nose is merely an entryway, and its function is limited to drawing odour molecules from the air, the volatile molecules responsible for the scents of vanilla, rose, or lavender.

365
00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:10,920
Travel to the olfactory epithelium, deep inside the nasal cavity.

366
00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:15,920
There, they interact with specialized receptors on the cilia.

367
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:24,920
This interaction is rapidly converted into electrical signals, which are then interpreted by the brain's olfactory center.

368
00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:33,920
What we perceive as smell is simply the brain's interpretation of these electrically induced signals.

369
00:36:33,920 --> 00:37:00,920
Whether pleasant, or unpleasant, the scent of perfume, flowers, food, or a sea breeze.

370
00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:10,920
All the scents you like or dislike are not outside, but are created in your mind.

371
00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:15,920
Moreover, scent molecules never reach our brain.

372
00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:21,920
Just like with sound and sight, the only thing that reaches your brain are electrical signals.

373
00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:36,920
So all the scents we perceive are simply the brain's electrical interpretation of molecules coming from the outside world.

374
00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:46,920
In this case, the direction of the smell is also irrelevant, because all smells, which we believe come from outside, are actually perceived at a single point.

375
00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:51,920
The olfactory center in our brain.

376
00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:56,920
The smell of cake seems to be coming through the oven.

377
00:37:56,920 --> 00:38:02,920
The smell of food seems to spread from the kitchen.

378
00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:07,920
The smell of flowers comes from the garden.

379
00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:16,920
And the smell of the sea seems to be carried hundreds of meters by the wind.

380
00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:24,920
All these scents are formed in your brain, regardless of where you think they come from.

381
00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:35,920
There is no such thing as a scent coming from the world outside the brain, either right or left, front or back.

382
00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:40,920
Every scent is perceived at a single center, at the same point.

383
00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:45,920
We mistakenly believe this perception derives from the matter outside.

384
00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:58,920
Just as the image of a flower is formed in your brain, not your eyes, the scent of that flower is formed not in your nose, but within your olfactory center.

385
00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:03,920
Even if there is a real scent outside, it is never possible to reach its true form.

386
00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:08,920
You may only perceive it as the interpretation of your brain.

387
00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:14,920
The philosopher George Berkeley, who realized this truth years ago, said

388
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:25,920
At first, colors, smells, etc. were thought to exist in reality.

389
00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:35,920
But afterwards, such views were rejected, and it was found that they exist only by virtue of our sensations.

390
00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:57,920
It is God, the Lord of the worlds, who creates countless scents in our minds, who directs us to the source of these scents, all-powerful and possesses superior artistry.

391
00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:04,920
I seek refuge in God from the accursed Satan.

392
00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:08,920
He laid out the earth for all living creatures.

393
00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:17,920
In it are fruits and date palms with covered spaths, and grains on leafy stems and fragrant herbs.

394
00:40:17,920 --> 00:40:21,920
So which of your Lord's blessings do you both then deny?

395
00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:53,920
The outside world comes alive before us, like an immense painting filled with colors, sounds, and textures.

396
00:40:53,920 --> 00:41:08,920
Yet, the very place all this splendor is created is in pitch darkness, and absolute silence.

397
00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:15,920
The 1.5 kilogram piece of flesh inside our skulls.

398
00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:23,920
In this secure box where no light ever gets in, and no sound ever echoes.

399
00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:27,920
Billions of electrical signals collide every second.

400
00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:40,920
Well, if the phenomenon we call matter is merely a low-quality electrical current, then what is the structure we call the brain itself?

401
00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:55,920
If the brain constructs a universe for us by interpreting electrical currents from the outside world, then isn't our knowledge of the brain itself also merely an interpretation?

402
00:41:55,920 --> 00:42:09,920
When we see ourselves in a mirror, or observe our brain in an MRI machine, we are actually observing an image presented to us by our brain.

403
00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:14,920
So, is the brain matter itself?

404
00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:21,920
Or is it also an illusion, similar to our dreams?

405
00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:32,920
The truth is, even if we accept our brain as a solid substance rather than an illusion, we still face a great mystery.

406
00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:39,920
Science tells us, reality itself is nothing but energy.

407
00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:54,920
Modern physics has proven that the atoms and electrons that make up our brains, like everything else, are not solid objects, but energy packets vibrating at specific frequencies, and condensed wave functions.

408
00:42:54,920 --> 00:43:06,920
When we descend to the subatomic level, the fundamental structure of matter, which we thought was stable, gives way to a deep void and vibration.

409
00:43:06,920 --> 00:43:12,920
If everything is energy in its essence, then is it energy?

410
00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:14,920
Who perceives energy?

411
00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:23,920
If the brain itself is an energy fluctuation, like everything else, then who is it that sees, hears, and says,

412
00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:35,920
I am here, does our mind belong to some truth beyond this universe of perceptions?

413
00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:42,920
To understand this amazing game of our mind, let's look into the depths of sleep again.

414
00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:47,920
In a dream, you may see yourself as a skilled brain surgeon.

415
00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:51,920
You feel the cold metallic scalpel in your hand.

416
00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:57,920
You see the folds of the brain you are operating on in the finest detail.

417
00:43:57,920 --> 00:44:03,920
At that moment, that brain is absolute reality for you.

418
00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:25,920
However, when you wake up, you realize that neither the scalpel you used during the operation, nor the brain you operated on, nor even your entire body in the dream, including the brain in your dream, actually exist.

419
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:31,920
You realize that all of these are a fiction created in your mind.

420
00:44:31,920 --> 00:44:39,920
What is the difference between your brain in this world, which you believe to be awake, and that imaginary brain in your dreams?

421
00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:56,920
If everything feels so complete and real in a dream, how can we be sure that our current experience will not end with a higher sense of awakening?

422
00:44:56,920 --> 00:45:04,920
All these wonders of the universe are actually a continuous masterpiece shown to that sublime being we call the soul.

423
00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:08,920
In this process of viewing, brain is merely a vehicle.

424
00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:16,920
An interface, when everything we perceive as physical is transformed into flashes of energy at the subatomic level.

425
00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:18,920
Only one truth remains.

426
00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:28,920
This stunning artistry is a manifestation constantly created by our Lord, the possessor of infinite wisdom.

427
00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:32,920
Everything created is a shadow, an illusion.

428
00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:38,920
The only eternal and real being is God, the Lord of the worlds.

429
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:54,920
We are watching His art, the beauties offered to us with the Spirit that comes from Him.

430
00:45:54,920 --> 00:46:00,920
I seek refuge in God from the accursed Satan.

431
00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:02,920
They will say, Alas for us!

432
00:46:02,920 --> 00:46:06,920
Who has raised us from our resting place?

433
00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:10,920
This is what the all-merciful promised us.

434
00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:12,920
The messengers were telling the truth.

435
00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:40,920
The Venice of the present,llowing the Mozambique and Davos and Hale of the людям.

436
00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:41,920
The galleon.

437
00:46:42,920 --> 00:46:44,920
Thegang of TheIR Anguirus.

438
00:46:44,920 --> 00:46:46,920
The Edge of the ayudar and the dead is not very qu stimulation.

439
00:46:46,920 --> 00:46:48,920
If you remember this may have been itself in love for one, just at the end of the world,

440
00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:51,920
If you don't feel a couple ofипedes of ADV or the dead, you'll definitely be allowed to know how that invitation to say hië.

441
00:46:51,920 --> 00:46:53,920
Tell your所, how you missed the century.

442
00:46:53,920 --> 00:46:55,920
The last month of the snail on November is the event of 11-1-2-0.

443
00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:56,920
Thisweek time movement is the pleasure, Gene-iph ilk.

444
00:46:56,920 --> 00:46:57,920
If you give yourself 12 years.
