On: Vibrations


...often occur in a Man’s pants—via a cell phone, a concealed excitement and often in the form of a text message. These vibrations happen several times a day and within mere seconds can contain up to hundreds of tiny oscillating recurrences within it (for one oscillation = the time interval for a wave beginning at a certain height to travel back to that same height over the course of some time period, i.e. wavelength). Now whether these recurrences are actually recurring is a simple question of essential change—does time end or is time merely repeating itself in an infinite amount of possibilities, of which we perceive, to be linear with respect to birth-life-death-birth. Moreover, how do recurrences (i.e. birth-life-death-birth) occur linearly, when upon reflection they (birth-life-death-birth) seem so circular? To even consider this question in a serious manner, we must first ask, if recurrences truly recur, how can we be sure whether these recurrences are actually recurring on the same linear path (time), as we perceive them actually recurring?
