Encircled: Awareness Implying Reality

By Eric Eliason

The idea of this book is to spend half our time discussing what the Universe is like and the other half of our time discussing why it must be that way. There are many books on the first subject and very little written on the second topic.
For instance, if we have a brain, language and an opposable thumb what does that imply about the makeup of the Universe?

We will show that, basically, the makeup of the Universe can be shown by how we think. It can either be internal and external or all in our head.

Circle containment (whether circles contain each other, intersect or don't intersect) is both logical for thought flow charts and physical to explain what's going on. We can cover the whole brain and the whole external world in a short amount of space!

We will show that how we think implies what the Universe should be like and that it works.

The book has about 10,000 words. Then there are 20,000 words of updating, "Flatland Turned on Out."

Flatland is an updated book that was a previous attempt to do something similar, but with points. It covers math and physics and how biology and psychology can come directly from them.

Circles, Intelligences, the Universe - Oh my! Encircled offers a new perspective of observing the universe and the things that act and are acted upon within it. Give it a read!

great book with deep understanding of lot of theories

Eric Eliason’s book, Encircled Awareness Implying reality, is a unique approach to a philosophical concept of reality. While Plato’s allegorical approach to describe reality through man’s attempt to describe limited experiences that could or could not be fact. Eric uses circles to explain the impact of the use of the brain in music, math, geometry and brain as well as limits and the impact of the left and right side of the to describe how our consciousness is incomplete but interactive between circles. Eric posits that however incomplete our consciousness, we have enough pieces to see and understand what is happening. Eric’s approach is interesting and unique and worth the time for exploration.

Eric has an unparalleled ability to explain how complex concepts relate to each other in a strikingly simple way! Encircled gave me a refreshing perspective on why the universe functions the way it does and what we can learn from the brain’s design by presenting philosophical thinking through a mathematical lens. This book is filled with moments for deep pondering which can be applied to challenges big or small.

I just read Eric Eliason’s Encircled Awareness Implying Reality. The premise of his book, as I understand it, is this: That things like Special Relativity, Electromagnetism, and Quantum Mechanics are what he uses to cover how everything in general works up to be like our lives. Because I do not have the kind of mind that comprehends advanced math and science, I really appreciated when Eric gave his points in Layman’s Terms. I was focusing primarily on those parts of the book. I think that those who are scientifically minded will really enjoy what Eric has to say. In particular, I enjoyed when he discussed things like memory, imagination and self-awareness. Two quotes I found very interesting were these: Every object is a thought represented by what it’s doing. Every thought is an object that enacts it in real life and Memorization is when information gets deposited that can be brought back later. Somewhere in his book, he discussed something that led me to understand why I can’t bring back small insignificant memories in my brain.

Motivation

The idea of this book is to spend half our time discussing what the Universe is like and the other half of our time discussing why it must be that way. There are many books on the first subject and very little written on the second topic.

For instance, if we have a brain, language and an opposable thumb what does that imply about the makeup of the Universe?

As we discover more things, does the Universe decide then what they are like or before? This book will state that they are already settled from our first consciousness on.

We will show that, basically, the makeup of the Universe can be shown by how we think. It can either be internal and external or all in our head.

Circle containment (whether circles contain each other, intersect or don’t intersect) is both logical for thought flow charts and physical to explain what’s going on. We can cover the whole brain and the whole external world in a short amount of space!

That is basically our topic for the book. A ‘plot’ is a ‘plot.’ A plot to do something is a layout of things that work to do those plans. A physical layout gives rise to an interpretation of understanding it. We will further this concept as we go.

Ch. 2 – Basic circles

If an enough sentient being wants to describe themselves, they might try a flow chart for their mind and a breakdown of atoms to describe their body.

But what if we want these two together from step one?

In science, the more we de-code what things are the less there is to what actually makes something alive. For instance, at first a person is alive, then only their blood, then only DNA or their cellular plans. Chasing these two down a rabbit hole leads to a further question of where the consciousness lies. One neuron doesn’t cut it but neither do many. The neuron is dead so everything is dead, yet consciousness bugs us because we know we have it.

Therefore, let us instead see if we can make everything alive and make thought and body out of the same things.

In my book, Flatland Turned on Out, we tried to do this with points. We had an infinite number of points that covered the whole Universe and by using a pseudorandom algorithm to decide which existed there was variety across the entire Universe. The second part of this book is all about it.

But in this book, we want to look at our thoughts and figure out how they imply the Universe.

To be as simple as possible, we have a circle that has a value of 0 or 1 based on where in the circle it is and what time it is. We will get to general relativity eventually, but it all starts out as something a primitive human can understand. This book should be very straightforward although you have to wait until chapter 23 for exactly how the circles can be running themselves. Circles are just a simple way to represent matter.

Circles do not have to mean anything or be exactly circles; they just represent thought and physicality.

We use time in this book because it is about consciousness and consciousness obviously involves time. The circles still don’t move though. They can’t because they make a flow chart. However, their values changing is like moving… both matter motion and information motion at the same time. In other words, if we
