Light is massless, unextended, dimensionless, indestructible and outside space and time (i.e. eternal). If light = life = mind, then they have exactly the same properties: they are immortal and indestructible. They have always existed.

What are photons? They are dimensionless, unitless, massless, pure numbers! Every photon has a specific frequency – which is its number. So, the light of the sun is in fact the light of numbers, the light of mathematics ... the light of reason.

Quote
It’s time for the human race to escape the nihilism of scientism. It's time for meaning, purpose, life, mind and qualia to be restored to their rightful, primary, defining place. Amazingly, it’s mathematics that allows the universe to be a living organism once again rather than a dead machine.

Quote
If you could get a “God’s eye view” of the universe from outside it, all you would “see” is just an immense equation with infinite variables relentlessly unfolding in a bewildering dance of competing mathematical functions. We ourselves are self-contained and eternal nodes of the cosmic equation. We have our own solution to our own equation: to become God.

Mathematics is the most mysterious subject of all. The properties of numbers deliver endless miracles. Who needs God when mathematics gives us so much more? Mathematics is the God factory: it does nothing but generate Gods … an infinity of them.

Quote
Wittgenstein was brilliant enough to see that math is, and must be, pure tautology, but not brilliant enough to see that mathematical tautology is descriptive andreal, not empty and abstract.
