1 ^ 10 000 years
1 ^ 83 000 * means that 1 ^ 83 000 is so large it must mean we're at the tail end of evolution and i haven't got a chance of making it or i's such a little number compared to other, larger numbers, all i've gotta' do is get paramatized and getting to heaven is gonna' be a breeze these impossibly large amounts of time are difficult to think about a number, by definition, is finite divide any number by infinity and it becomes an infinitely small value multiply 1^10 1000 by 1^10 1000 for 1^10 1000 years at a rate of 1^10 1000 functions per second and then divide the result infinity and it becomes an infinitely small number we're going 1 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1 x ... for the rest of eternity and remember... there will always be more time ahead of us then there is behind us infinitely more ~~~ * the writer latched on to this number when he came across it while browsing through a book that gave a résumé of original and notable achievements of ancient greek thinkers
the name of the greek thinker who put this number forward as being the largest number we would ever need is not remembered at the moment but all of the thinking that came out of that period that has stood the test of time was based on a sound rationale' although the rationale' for this number wasn't given or has been forgotten
the actual number given was 1^ 83 000
the writer likes to think that in a future undulation the greek thinkers will put the number at 1 ^ 84 000 which suggests that in a previous undulation it was pegged at 1 ^ 82 000
the intuitive insights that the greek civilization produced two and half thousand years ago is something we still regard with an almost mystical appreciation
what caused that flowering of intellectualism ?

a person trying to project the experiences of the here and now into the forever may well find themselves thinking that they don't want to go to heaven the thing to remember about heaven is that it is beyond anything a person can imagine put all the best experiences of your life together and try and imagine them all happening at the same time then further imagine that state of being continuing then imagine that those combined feelings and thoughts don't come anywhere near the basic feelings that exist in heaven
the writers experiences of 20 years ago produced a whiff of the senses and feelings accompanying freedom... an exhilaration that filled the sense of being and which intensifies every new moment when the mind is exposed to the reality of an unending qualitative future in an inexhuastible space it isn't known how that runaway feeling is moderated; it is suspected that love might have something to do with it
it's going to take an artist or narrator with special skills to describe the helpless wonder that is contained in picture page " heavenly bodies " as two beings begin to orient themselves to the stupefying reality of the heavenly state |
