It is easier to scramble than to unscramble eggs. I think of entropy as an exponential barrier of computational complexity. The fundamental grammar of physics is computation, not "laws". From that, everything follows, including cognition and aesthetic experience. https://twitter.com/sknthla/status/988885476374392832 …

“It's a poor sort of memory that only works backwards” – Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland. Its all to easy to get caught up in Maya, where entropy matters ;)

In Samkhya philosophy, the universe is termed Prakriti and the experiencing self is termed Purusha. The Sanskrit word for computation is Vritti: this word is defined by the grammarian Panini as context-sensitive recursive computation. Only Prakriti has Vrittis. Purusha doesn't.

In Patanjali's YogaSutras (developed from Samkhya), Yoga is defined as "Yogas chitta vritti nirodhah": Yoga is the complete termination of Vrittis (transformations) of Chitta (faculty of memory). The Vrittis will stop when you step out of time i.e identify with Purusha alone.

This is pragmatically true, but not a statement about physics, but about what you can do to your mind and the universe it constructs. Is there a way to talk about physics in this philosophy? What is its epistemological basis? How can you verify a statement?

I don't trust any complex mathematical (a priori) conclusion without a proof, because my mind is weak, and other people's minds are usually not much better. How do you know that something is "absolutely correct"?

I cannot even parse what "everything that is is One" means, beyond "perhaps some meditating guy discovered that he can relax all principal components of mental classification, so all discernments disappear". But I am pretty sure the quantum wave field has nothing to do with that.
