Waarom de tijd (niet) stroomt

Sterrenkundige en zenleraar Jos Stollman gaat langs verschillende wegen op zoek naar de essentie van het verschijnsel tijd. Hij start met het natuurkundige perspectief: tijdruimte in de relativiteitstheorie, tijd op grote schaal in de kosmologie en op kleine schaal in de kwantumtheorie, de pijl van de tijd in de statistische fysica. In de natuurkunde wordt onze intuïtie van tijd ondergraven. Vervolgens neemt Stollman ons mee naar de neuropsychologie, waarin met name de rol van het geheugen bij het ervaren van het stromen van de tijd centraal staat. Dan volgt de stap van weten naar denken en komen de belangrijkste filosofische inzichten over tijd aan de orde. Tot slot verschuift de aandacht naar het domein van de spiritualiteit, waar het denken terugtreedt en ruimte maakt voor nóg een nieuw perspectief op tijd. De verschillende benaderingen vullen elkaar aan en ontmoeten elkaar in ons bewustzijn. Wie tijd beter begrijpt, komt daardoor ook tot nieuwe, verrassende inzichten in het eigen bewustzijn. 'Ik ben onder de indruk van de grote eruditie van de schrijver en zijn grote talent om ingewikkelde dingen helder uit te leggen. Veel mensen zullen het graag willen lezen.’ – Paul van Tongeren, voormalig Denker des Vaderlands. ‘Een uitdagend perspectief op het fenomeen “tijd”. De gecombineerde visie vanuit natuurkunde, psychologie, filosofie en spiritualiteit leidt tot verrassende inzichten.’ – Willem B. Drees, natuurkundige, theoloog en emeritus-hoogleraar filosofie van de geesteswetenschappen.

Secrets from the Book of Universe, Signs

All the titles in this work, except "An Islamic Approach to Time Travel", were written before 2023. I had previously collected all my works before 2023 in two main books. These two main books were "Human and Universe" and "The Rise of Turkey". And in this book, I have collected all the titles before 2025, including "An Islamic Approach to Time Travel". Therefore, "Secrets from the Book of Universe" includes all my nonfiction works published before 2025. All the titles in this work will continue to be published individually.What will this work give you?First, it will allow you to see the events of the universe through the eyes of wisdom.We are living in the end times. We live in a terrifying time when keeping faith is as difficult as holding a burning fire. We must demonstrate the same sensitivity that we use to protect our bodies from viruses in order to protect our hearts and faith from doubting arrows. If the virus kills us, our temporary world ends. However, if we lose faith, we endanger our eternal life.The most important titles of "Secrets from the Book of Universe" are as follows:Human and Universe: Science and Religion-A Glimpse to the Unseen Realms:How Can Soothsayers Predict the Future?Since no one but Allah knows the future, how come the prophecies of some soothsayers always come true?How come the news of soothsayers like Nostradamus about the future always comes true?Who was the person who foretold the Ottoman State before its establishment?What's the secret of shooting stars?You will find the answers to the questions that confuse you in this section...Understanding the Presence of the Spirit:This work will help the minds to get rid of delusions and doubts about the soul...Unmaterial Molds:Even a simple house cannot exist by itself. So where is the engineer and architect of this enormous universe palace full of antique arts? What mold do these wonderful animate and inanimate objects come out of? How astonishing are the countless events that we witness at every moment? So why aren't we amazed? Could it be because we got used to it and it became commonplace to us?-Big Crunch: Invisible Apocalyptic MachinesThe Hour is near.The countdown to the apocalypse has begun.It's like a ticking time bomb with ten seconds to go off. That's why we experience the truth that time speeds up when the apocalypse approaches.From time to time, different fields of the scientific world make statements such as, "A thousand years later, our earth will be in this situation; 10 million years later, the sun will be like this; this country will be in this situation, etc." What if I told you that the world doesn't have a life span of 200 years?We are about to count down to the apocalypse according to universe time.The Prophet (PBUH) said: "The lifespan of my Ummah will not extend past 1500 years."I'm sure the scientific truths revealed by the Qur'an and the prophet (PBUH) fourteen centuries ago astounded you. Your astonishment will grow even stronger as you read this book.-Can God Create a Rock He Cannot Lift? Omnipotence Paradox-Quantum to EtherIn this section, I mentioned the relationship between theories such as string and quantum with the name Al-Qayyum. I also discussed the mystery of the ether substance.-An Islamic Approach to Time Travel-Genetic CopyThe Rise of Turkey: The Second Coming of Jesus-The Return of Jesus: Conquest of Rome-Armies of the Heavens

Time

Our two main theories in physics are sending us opposite messages: relativity says the future is entirely laid out and pre-decided, but quantum theory has random events, that are undecided until they happen. Which is true? By the author who discusses his work with Carlo Rovelli in the documentary The Interactions Avenue.
