sorry this is some weird statement ive never heard of.

Perhaps the most commonly encountered rotating reference frame is the Earth. Because the Earth completes only one rotation per day, the Coriolis force is quite small, and its effects generally become noticeable only for motions occurring over large distances and long periods of time, such as large-scale movement of air in the atmosphere or water in the ocean. Such motions are constrained by the 2-dimensional surface of the earth, so only the horizontal component of the Coriolis force is generally important. This force causes moving objects on the surface of the Earth to appear to veer to the right in the northern hemisphere, and to the left in the southern. Rather than flowing directly from areas of high pressure to low pressure, as they would on a non-rotating planet, winds and currents tend to flow to the right of this direction north of the equator, and to the left of this direction south of it. This effect is responsible for the rotation of large cyclones (see Coriolis effects in meteorology).

coriolis effect only applies to a planet and its axis. and other spinning sphere like objects and their relation to their own axises not the universe. you don't understand do you? coriolis force is about inertia(inertion) of the object moving on the surface of the planet.

its Fc= mac= - 2m[wv] where Fc = Coriolis force, m = exact mass of the moving object and "ac" = speed up rate of the coriolis force. w and v are 2 different vectors.


its all about inertia of the MASS which is pretty dense and material. torsion fields are abit like electrons which do not seem material to us humanbeing, who can't feel it physically feel on touch, but can see it with our eyes as light rays.

It's all about where in reality we would move if tried walking on a straight line in different hemphspheres and how physically it influences seashores and other things on surface of our beautiful PLANET EARTH.... not the fucking universe zzzzzzzzzz...... :D stop using Coriolis effect to explain a subject that has nothing to do with it.... absolutely nothing.

hope this makes sense

Clockwise FTW, but I go counter-clockwise every 11 years when the sunspots are at their most intense.
And dont forget about El Nino! Last time I did a double helix.

There are many things I do not understand, many times more than what little I do know (lol...and many times more than that, what little I am capable of knowing). But, that wasn't the statement you made. No need to take it personal, I just linked to an explanation of what you said you had never heard of before.

And yes, I do understand that time and space are linear, while life is rhythmic and circular. But, where is one without the other? If one is to accept that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction, then would not clockwise and counterclockwise be two sides of the same coin? How is that not the very essence of Karma?

btw If you walk your dog on circles around a field or a lake you would much rather walk clockwise ;) any other stuff like washing your plate or anything that matters for to you should too be done clockwise.
there are no benefits to this. it's a normal way of doing anything.
it is however a bit of detrimental(longterm aswell as shorterm) to do things counterclockwise especially when you are aware of the fact.

I'm thinking that if one were to wash dishes counter clockwise, one would be splashing water towards ones self, instead of away.

As for walking around a lake, it depends on where the 'attractions' are and wether you are right handed or left handed.
