“To be, or not to be, that is the question”
By William Shakespeare

(from Hamlet, spoken by Hamlet)

To be, or not to be, that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles
And by opposing end them. To die—to sleep,
No more; and by a sleep to say we end
The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to: 'tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish'd. To die, to sleep;
To sleep, perchance to dream—ay, there's the rub:
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come,
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause—there's the respect
That makes calamity of so long life.
For who would bear the whips and scorns of time,
Th'oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely,
The pangs of dispriz'd love, the law's delay,
The insolence of office, and the spurns
That patient merit of th'unworthy takes,
When he himself might his quietus make
With a bare bodkin? Who would fardels bear,
To grunt and sweat under a weary life,
But that the dread of something after death,
The undiscovere'd country, from whose bourn
No traveller returns, puzzles the will,
And makes us rather bear those ills we have
Than fly to others that we know not of?
Thus conscience doth make cowards of us all,
And thus the native hue of resolution
Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought,
And enterprises of great pith and moment
With this regard their currents turn awry
And lose the name of action.

TLDR - Fear of death makes noble cowards of us

Stay in school... if you want to live! This is the first "open" map I have made. There are few blocking volumes on the map and many windows and railings can be jumped over/through, and player can escape into the outer map area. Doing this however will lead

My dude, your flavour of craziness is intriguing and resonant to my own.

Have you ever considered matter itself as a direct function of energy?

If Einstein's equation is right, mass can only exist in the presence of energy. Energy must be greater than zero if mass is to be greater than zero, as the speed of light is a constant. So what happens in the absolute absence of energy? No mass whatsoever.

Can matter without mass even be considered matter? Can it even be considered as existing?
I'd argue that whatever matter without energy is, be it an empty string, the ether, dark matter, whatever, that it only becomes manifest when it absorbs energy. Depending on the form, resonance, and magnitude of the energy, matter will manifest in different states. From highly energetic forms such as a photon or other wave like particles, to a basic element or mundane lump of rock, what matter exists as, is determined by the energy it has absorbed or integrated into itself.

The idea of our perception being that of a negative world is truly interesting, we see the interactions of energy, not the thing itself.

Writing a new book to describe E=MCsq and how we perceive matter. Basically atoms are mostly empty space. It is the relative frequencies / wavelengths that give things substance.

It is all about energy flow. For example the way our eyes frequency of sight will match a rotating wheel to make it look as though it is sitting still. Matching frequencies is what Matter is.

Color is another example.
We only see what it reflected. You paint things with something to absorb blue and green in order to reflect only the red wavelengths. We see what it isn't absorbing.

We live in a negative world really. All the positive energy is locked up in a space too small to interact with. Everything outside the Nucleus is just relative negative energies.

This is the result of the source being outside of what we consider Space and Time. Energies produce the particles and their relative space.
Consciousness by my estimation is the interaction between three aspects of humanity, the voice and will of the body, the thought and rationality of the mind, and the previously conditioned behaviour that is the soul.

The body lets us know something, anything, that it's hungry, that the sky is blue, that this persons is making a unfriendly face, that it's irritated and uncomfortable, ect.

The soul is the part of us that we've trained to act, or conditioned, over our lifetime of thoughts, words, and actions. It's the shorthand of who we are, us in essence, it's who we are without thought. Our previously determined way to behave.

The mind is our agency, the part of us that can reason, think and most importantly, determine.
cont...
When we're made aware of something by a signal sent from the mind to the body, in the form of stimuli, the autonomous reaction of the soul directs us to act without thinking about it. Your automatic behaviour. You can then begin to use the mind to consider why your soul acts and reacts the way it does. You can look at yourself with self-awareness. That is essence of consciousness.

The awareness of the mind, and determination of the self.

If that's of value, I can add that the three dimensions of Euclidean space are where the physical body acts, then potentially three energy dimensions, something like frequency, force and conveyance, where the mind operates. Consciousness seems to be awareness or perhaps observations of the interactions between these realms of the energy and the material.

I have also spoken to brain surgeons and it is a fact that we do not know where the seat of consciousness resides. The energy of our consciousness is outside of the electromagnetic spectrum and can't be directly measured. It can't be "tracked" to see where it goes when we sleep for example. We accept it as "real", "I think therefore I am", but can't even directly detect it. Material Space as related to the speed of light is only part of what is actually happening around us. Current theory seems like believing in magic since it can't explain any of the why of things, while this theory covers it all rather nicely.
