Reading God's Thoughts

[Grim Jim]

I was watching a google video about time travel recently that featured Michio Kaku. Dr. Kaku mentioned something about Einstein's unified field theory that I had never heard before. He said that Einstein believed that the equation for understanding all of the secrets of the universe would be no longer than an inch long. Einstein also predicted that this formula (that he failed to create) would even allow us to read God's thoughts.

Maybe he was speaking metaphorically but this concept just blew my mind. Has anyone else ever heard this quote from Einstein before?

I have not, but find it intriguing.

Coming from a design education, we talked at length about Fibonacci and the Golden Mean, and the implications of that were an easy jump to thinking you might have a glimpse into, well.... everything!

Me neither, but it is quite a fascinating thought!

I haven't either Grim Jim, however as others have said, this is an interesting concept.

I struggle with Einstein's limitation to a third dimensional linear measurement though....not to say that this would be impossible.

I tend to think that the answer to everything lies within what is deemed as "sacred geometry" and certainly would be three dimensional at minimum, yet tend to think multidimensional.

I believe that this limited thinking and inability to go beyond our created measurements has impeded our growth and knowledge...JMHO.

I think the biggest secret to the universe is learning how to happily co-exist with Uncertainty.
