About this listen

What if the greatest barrier to understanding reality isn't our technology or intelligence, but our fundamental position within time itself? Imagine a brilliant fish dedicating its life to studying water, measuring currents, developing theories about flow - yet never understanding wetness because it has never experienced dryness. Are we exactly like this fish, except our ocean is time? Can we ever truly measure something we're swimming through? Why do scientific measurements and ancient texts seem to contradict when describing the age of things? What if both perspectives are seeing truth from radically different positions in the river? These questions reveal a profound limitation that reshapes everything we think we know about knowledge itself.
