Sphere-Activity Sensor Software.

This project was planned, yet delayed because of causes & conditions.

A little of a software that would assess the global activity of the spheres-use, as determined by time & entropy - a part of a larger project as well.

Up-till now he had to use different software & different means, but writing own code is better - at least he knew what to expect from it.

Virtual Adept's code, nevertheless.

Runner did a known trick of initializing random number generator with current time, measured just after his program was run - randomness-related phenomena are governed by entropy sphere after all. He did accommodate both for certain trends in given month/day periods, as well as for occasional peaks & lows determined by a moment. He included extra chance for a peak or low during the 'Full' or 'New' Moon's Phases.

Writing a code was only a part of his magick, rest was investing energy & proper magickal means to affect the random number generator by clicking 'run' button in a synchrony with the magickal time-entropy currents. Clicking the 'run' button in an appropriate moment is the deciding factor for a succesful cast, he acknowledged with himself.

Time Killing.

Thoughtful Evening.

This time Runner considered challenges of Time Travel, Divinity, Reincarnation.

Perhaps this project will let him advance in Arts of Magick, in Buddhism, in Philosophy.

... But how to model Karma Accumulation & Reincarnation using Object-Oriented Software Construction methodology?


Illusory World.

Karma is a Mind State - our thoughts, words & actions plant the seeds in the Mindstream, plant the Causes of something happening in future, including conditions of our future Rebirths. Wishes & Magick are also means of accumulating Karma, either 'good' or 'bad'.

Reincarnation is in most cases involuntary, our Karma determines how we are reborn - in which point of time-space, who are our parents, what are our talents & tendencies.

Well, how one can Reincarnate in the past then? Considering that Mindstream is subjective, perceived world has one timeline, Mind has another timeline. Beings perceive each other differently, but still can interact with others. Yes, we are beings, we have Mind. We perceive world differently but still similarily enough to find common language. Those who think that world is real are dumb as ox they say - but those who think it's illusion are dumber still.

In fact world is both 'illusory', impermanent, subject to change - as well as 'real'.

We can be reborn in 'the same' world - so to say - but what world it is depends on us. When people start thinking differently world changes, both by finding new Technologies that allow for advances, as well as on Spiritual, Esoteric levels.


Empty Heavens.

Empty can also mean 'transient', nonpermanent. Runner firmly believed that no Godhood is lasting, that after 'using up good karma' godly beings fall in pain into hells.

But there's also an idea of 'Progressive Reincarnation', perhaps gods still choose to work in their heavens in preparation for future Reincarnations - occasionally falling to the human level to rebuild their Karma & reascend. Meanwhile they are replaced by their most devout followers who also help them rise into the godhood again.

What truly is 'Progressive Reincarnation' Runner has to learn still, however.


Karma Soldifies.

Is it true that exact amount of time before reincarnation might vary? Or perhaps time perception after death is blurred?

Either way, at last stages of Bardo - most commonly understood as time 'in-between' the death & rebirth - karma soldifies, a being unerringly finds the time-space point where she or he reincarnates next.


Time Entropy.

Afterall, the eternalist time entropy threat seemed to have the long & painful consequences, but not something to fear too much as
the 'Eternal Hell-Heaven'.

According to Buddhism, no Heaven or Hell is eternal anyway, even if time itself has no beginning & no end.
