I think you're doing better than I could explain it, Mohan. The way I understood your suggestion of nothing being eternal is how I interpret absolute - it's a very fine difference so no biggie.
I like your suggestion of two zero-dimensional points creating a single dimension, but my suggestion of how this is done is by way of time reduction. It is a velocity-dependent line, which is easy enough to fathom if we consider that the universe is at both points simultaneously.
The relational viewpoints relative to both the universe and any observer: from what would be the absolute perspective, we have a single line that is synonymous to the zero-dimensional standpoint of the observer; and from the observer's perspective, we have two zero-dimensional reference points.
It takes no time for the universe to the other point that creates the line of travel; but it takes a finite amount of time for the observer to traverse the length of the line, unless the observer reduces his/her speed infinitely which then translates into eternity. |
