The arguments for non-three-dimensional space are the following:
-
We only observe effects, we do not observe causation. For example, we observe a ball rolling. What is the cause of it rolling? We can never find this cause, therefore it is located in non-three-dimensional space.
-
When we dream we are on Mars, we are obviously not on Mars. Therefore, this dream takes place in non-three-dimensional space.
-
The observer cannot be located in three-dimensional space. The observer observes information coming in from 125 million rods and cones and puts all this information together as a whole. If you observe 125 million things then you are not any of those 125 million things. Thus, the observer is not located in three dimensional space.
-
Just take your finger and push your eyeball and now you can see two of everything. Obviously there are not two of everything. When we see a mental image that image is not located in three dimensional space.
-
Feeling is not located in three-dimensional space. If it was, we would be able to point to it.
Let me just refute right now an objection that is bound to rise. I have heard some people state that when we dream that we are on Mars, Mars is in our brain.
- X is in Y if X is smaller than Y
- Mars is not smaller than the brain.
- Therefore Mars is not in the brain.
If feeling, the observer, and colors are not in three dimensional space, then where are they? They transcend space, that is, they affect 3D space but are not in 3D space.
