Chapter 13.
Observable.
13.1
The border.
A strong wind blew, raising clouds of dust and debris, howling under our bridge.
Our narrator continued his story.
- There are many different ways to explore the world. Someone is engaged in theoretical calculations, someone is testing them in practice. All complement each other for a common goal.
- As you know, mathematicians, in order to prove any big theory, theorem, use many small ones, as if putting the whole building together brick by brick.
- When solving the last problem, I used the theory of Chaos as an auxiliary material.
“And then, something happened. It was as if I woke up from oblivion, which I fell into for many years.
- As if I remembered something from a distant childhood, deeply hidden, but haunted. Like lightning struck my mortal body.
- With some kind of inner instinct, I caught one oddity, grabbed the thread from the ball, which I had been looking for all my life.
- I instantly dropped everything, focusing on only one.
-So, he continued, let's get to the heart of the problem.
- What I will try to tell you about is so difficult to understand, that I will try to simplify my story as much as possible.
- Scientists, alchemists of all lands are doing the same thing - they are watching the world around us.
- Let's call it Observable for simplicity.
- Everything we see around is Observable.
- Everything.
- Material and non-material, if such exists.
- The very first and important question, that immediately arises, is the question of the size of the Universe and its boundary.
- This question arises first, when you begin to barely walk as a child.
- The genius of this riddle lies in the fact, that it is understandable to everyone, from children to deep old people. It is understandable as complete idiots, who can neither read nor write, who have not studied a single day at school and geniuses. And at the same time, neither an idiot nor a genius knows anything about it.
- Absolutely. Sometimes it even seems to me, that complete idiots have a better chance than geniuses.
- The riddle about the size of the Universe is the most important one.
- It is important, because all strives for it, and repels from it, moving on.
- It is the very lighthouse, the cornerstone, the meeting place, one of the most important crossroads of this world.
“I don’t know of a more important and dizzying riddle, that makes my head spin so much.
- As you know, Observable, the Universe, by definition, tends to infinity.
- How to find the border ??? - what, by definition, cannot and Should Not be found ???
- Why, you ask, was it necessary to find the Border ?? It's so convenient to refer to infinity!
- Yes you are right.
- When you are told about infinity or the supernatural, it means your mind is at a dead end. This is its normal defensive reaction.
- When colliding with infinity, you must stop. This is a signal, showing that it is necessary to pause, gather strength.
- In no case can you go ahead.
- Everything I have done in my life before, all these problems, theorems and theories have absolutely no meaning without this border!
- Everything turns into insignificance.
- For as long as I can remember, I was not let go of this problem, which has not been solved by anyone until now ..
- This task is so incredible, that it drives you crazy immediately in the first seconds to its approach.
- The very conversation about it was useless and always caused only a headache.
- The praise of others, which I liked so much earlier, turned into dislike and real torture.
- I began to literally turn out from the understanding of my insignificance.
“So, I dropped everything in an instant.
- Everything was in vain!
- And I started to go crazy ...
- The whole experience of my life screamed at me so, that my ears began to ring, so that I would stop ...
- Just ….stopped and looked around.
He put his head in his hands, trying to defend himself, like a hunted animal.
- And what exactly is the border of the Universe? What's behind it ???
- Does it exist at all?
- What is it, what is not! ???
- Without an answer, there is no further movement.
- The border issue has become the most important.
- In fact, it was always the most important, but I deliberately left it, knowing that it was too tough for me.
“Many great minds have tried to find it.
- How do you like the newfangled theory of the expanding Universe into some kind of black void, where there is nothing and it is, again, infinite?
- As a child, as a scientist, they both meet at this border.
There was a long pause.
Only the sound of rain broke the deepest, unnatural silence and ... the blackness that suddenly came from nowhere and suddenly enveloped us.
Through this darkness we heard the barely audible voice of our interlocutor.
- Here I ask you to concentrate absolutely all your attention, and to concentrate as never before. If you understand this, you have a chance.
“Our mind is both a powerful tool, but it also has many limitations.
- I will focus on one of the most important.
- This is such a property of the mind as the tendency… to Reflex.
- The Reflex is embedded in us at the animal, genetic level, it is spelled out in our code.
- Everything we have experienced before, everything we have learned, we remember, and by inertia, we project into the future.
- If, for example, we were burned by flame from a fire, we remember this, and this becomes a law for us.
- Imagine yourself walking in a big city with an endless number of streets.
- Each time, reaching the end of the street, turning, we find ourselves on another street and move on.
- And so, walking along the next street, we know in advance, that after turning at the intersection, we will continue to move along the next street. This is called Reflex.
- All modern science is built on this principle. No theory will be accepted without an experiment, repeated many times.
- Nothing has changed since the inhabitants lived in the caves! Modern science uses the methods of cave dwellers !!
- And then, the most dreadfull, that could happen begins.
- We project the world we see around us, to infinity.
- The Universe thus becomes colored by the Observer, who looks from the center ... It becomes his Universe. Like a firefly in a huge dark forest, illuminating a tiny space around him.
- There is a particle of truth in this.
- No matter, where the Observer is placed in the Universe, his perceptual organs will not change from this ... he will also see some familiar picture, only there will be, another sky, other stars, but the essence of this does not change.
- At the same time, this is a monstrous delusion.
- This is the most terrible trap, in which modern science has found itself.
- Although this restriction was imposed, of course, not accidental.
- For their research, scientists are inventing ever more accurate and perfect measuring instruments. But this no longer has any effect. They only plunge more and more into the abyss of endless dimensions, from which there is no way out.
Our new friend looked around and continued
- I found myself in another dead end, from which there was no way out ...
- On the one hand, a whole army of countless alchemists and scientists, attacking the mysteries of the Universe. How is it possible for them, all to go down the wrong path??
- No, I thought, it's just impossible ....
- It can't be, that they all go crazy at once !!
- No… It's not as easy as it seems.
- Stunned, I thought about it a lot.
- Gradually, step by step, I returned to the very beginning.
- The point where it all starts.
- I asked myself the simplest question, which drove me to a dead end.
- What have I been doing all my life, and most importantly, for what??
- What is science and what is it for?
- No matter, how strange it sounds, who is the main beneficiary of the results of scientific discoveries and what is their essence and benefit?
- How to distinguish real science from all this rubbish and falsehood??
Listening up to this point and forgetting everything, Lulu cried out
- Can science, with its discoveries, obvious facts, fundamental laws, formulas and confirmed by repeated experiments, recognized by everyone and beyond any doubt, be ... False, ... Not real?!?
The jester looked at us for a long time in bewilderment, and then, bursting into wild laughter, shouted:
- Certainly !!!
It took a long time, before he calmed down a bit, continued:
- Isn't it true, I'm willing to bet, that you have never faced such tasks before.
- The problem with all alchemists and scientists is that, they also have not dealt with such tasks, and do not even have the slightest idea, what it is.
- Behind all this lies something ... some kind of hidden and so fundamental reason, that I will never understand ...
- It is impossible to understand, simply because we are involved in this process, and we are inside it.
- The only one, who knows the reason for the mixing of Reality and Falsity so much, that this cannot be distinguished from each other, is that, who invented this Universe.
Seeing our despondency, the jester reassuringly, with a soft smile, paternally, said
- And who told you that it's easy??
- I'll tell you more - it's practically impossible, if not for one strange and inexplicable circumstance.
- Which ?! we asked in a barely audible tone.
The jester thought for a long time.
Then, as if in doubt, he spoke softly.
- You know, lately I myself do not fully understand, what is happening.
- This circumstance does not apply to science, nor to everyday life, nor to anything, that I used to see in life before.
- But those, real mysteries, to which fate allows me to approach, as if they themselves help me understand them. As if some kind of force tells you, what to pay attention to and concentrate on. What is important and what is not.
- Once, having finally lost my orientation and faith, a vague guess, like a light reflection, flashed in the depths of me.
- I looked at all the modern laboratories and instruments with which modern alchemists surrounded themselves like blind moles.
- Yes, of course!!
- Starting point !!!
- The mistake was made at the very beginning!
- And I, without any hesitation, throwing all the previous knowledge and achievements aside, took up the experiments.
- I took as a basis, what was given to us by Being itself - our body. It is the standard, the most perfect instrument. It has everything.
- And if our eyes cannot see atoms, or beyond the Moon, then we do not need to delve into these topics.
- They are not important.
- But in spite of everything, the mind rushed to build devices, that try to discern the infinitely small and infinitely distant, to discern, what is not important and what is not exist, to the delight of the one, who imposed a restriction on the mind of such a property.
- Nothing can be done, this is how the System works.
- At the same time, in order not to get confused, the System gave the Observer a hint ...
- The Observer's body is a compass, suggesting, what is important and what is not.
- So, let's continue ...
- So how do you define the undetectable ??
“I knew exactly, what I was looking for was not on the edge of the Universe, billions of light years away.
- This is somewhere nearby, at arm's length. Yes, this's here - you just have to lend a hand. This is always here. Was, is and will be.
- Oddly enough it sounds, almost all brilliant discoveries in science were made by chance. Now I know what this "accident" is. There is nothing accidental in such matters.
13.2
Properties.
- Mathematicians and physicists have one unique technique. I will try to explain it to you as simply as possible.
If the task is incredibly difficult, and what they are looking for does not lend themselves to explicit identification, they try to determine the properties of what they are looking for, or how it affects the environment.
- By that time, I knew that the Universe is connected with the one, who is in it - the Observer.
- Is not it ?
And then, probably realizing, that he was talking to us like children, fearing , that we would not understand him, for the first time he burst out with such Homeric laughter, that we were afraid our new friend had completely lost his mind, we were losing him, and we might not hear the endings such an interesting fairy tale.
Wiping away his tears with laughter, he continued.
- All Observable consists of matter.
- Matter and Time - all that I had from tools. And both refer to our Universe.
- I began to carefully examine the properties of both.
- So, while constantly talking about the infinity of space, I was struck by one fact.
- You know, my dears, he turned to me and Lulu, listening with open mouths, the accuracy of the deviation of the orbit from which the Moon revolves around the Earth ???
3 !!! centimeters !!! in year!!!
- If we take the scale of the Moon- Earth system, and the complexity of such regulation is simply fantastic. Yes, I was not mistaken in the term - Regulation!
Then our new friend thought about something, as if remembering something anew.
- You know, about regulation.
“I doubted whether to tell you or not.
- How is your day going?
- In the morning you get up, wash, have breakfast, go about your business.
- Do dozens of things and millions of movements.
- And so, day after day, for a whole year.
- Despite the seeming chaos in your movements, you move along a certain orbit of yours, connected by countless unknown threads with the outside world.
- So, I would like to ask you.
- How free do you think you are ???
- To facilitate the task, I propose to solve the following simple task.
1) Calculate the distance traveled by the Moon in a year.
2) Calculate the average distance covered by the Observer over the year.
3) You know the deviation of the Moon's orbit for a year.
4) Calculate the elementary proportion with three known ones.
After his words, Lulu and I felt scared ..
We started to guess, where he was going ..
- Yes, he answered breathing heavily,
- I didn’t count, because I was just disgusted to know.
- If the deviation of our movements, our freedom of movement for a year, totaled at least 1 millimeter, then it would be a luxury.
- I don't think there will be even a millimeter.
- Now, do you have any idea, what this is about ???
- How deterministic is our System, how strong are the restrictions imposed on the Observable, on the Universe ?? In simple words, how accurately are all the cogs fitted in it ??? The degree of freedom and independence of your body, as a part of the world ... 1 millimeter per year - that's all your freedom !!!
- Nothing in this world is abandoned, not forgotten. Not a single weed grows just like that, by itself, as it seems.
- You know, when I started doing science, this was not, what I was expecting.
- I can't walk under the starry sky now, I can't enjoy a romantic warm summer evening, looking at the full moon.
- Because…. I see differently.
- And I would pay dearly to return at least a short while ago, when I knew nothing of this ... the old jester said bitterly, bowing his head.
- So, let's continue.
- I realized, that everything is useless ..
- I will never solve this problem.
- Imagine an infinite number of absolutely identical objects, among which you need to find the difference.
- Nonsense !! It's impossible!!!
- I was rushing about the castle, and then, it dawned on me.
- This accuracy of celestial mechanics gave me an idea.
- This is the oldest trick.
- If something is so carefully hidden and guarded, that it cannot be found clearly, then you can try to determine it by its degree of importance, priority.
- How??? You ask.
- For example, I see this bottle.
Our mathematician took out a dusty bottle with a cloudy liquid from somewhere, drank from it, and continued stretching it out in his hand.
The three of us stared at her, not understanding, where our old friend was heading.
- Now we all see the same thing and it is the same for us in properties and equal in importance. We are so used to it, that we don't even notice it.
- Imagine something fourth among us, who does not think so, and what is a piece of glass for us is a treasure for him.
- Border always means limitation.
- What I am looking for is what is so important for the one who drew this border !!!
- The Royal Jester fell silent, hanging his head. Among the drunken homeless vagabonds, mountains of bottles, complete chaos reigned, death itself was around us.
- And you know …I found, quietly and with some incredible energy at this moment, with confidence, pride and calmness, he said. Finally found something, that sets one apart, among these beautiful infinite twins.
- I did everything, and now I can die in peace.
13.3
Structure.
- I cannot tell you everything, our friend said with a sad sigh. But I'll add one more thing, if I haven't tired of you with my chatter.
He said, smiling broadly, with an almost toothless mouth. Life on the street in a constant struggle for survival does not pass without a trace.
- From the very first day of your birth, you already knew, that you were not free.
- Each of us is tied by billions of different fetters - restrictions.
- All talk about freedom, equality and so on is just nonsense.
- You are not free either physically or mentally.
- For example, the concept of infinity is nothing more, than one of the infinite limitations of the mind.
- In this world there is no freedom as such! Not in any form! It simply cannot be.
- This is the nature of the System.
- So, imagine a System consisting of two parts.
- Observer and Observed.
- For many years of hard work and mathematical battles, I have always asked myself the same question.
- Taking as assistants one of the main limitations in our Universe - the speed of light.
- I asked myself, tormenting with the same question - why is it the way it is.
- Physicists, for example, tend to consider it equal to about 300 thousand km per second, although it is impossible to measure it in one direction ... but so be it ..
- That's not the point ...
- I always asked myself a question, and did not find an answer.
- And actually ….why ???
- Could the speed of light be, for example, 1 cm per second or 150 million km per second ???
- Why not?!?
- Of course it could !!!
- Why is it the way it is ??
- What would our world be like if, for example, the speed of light were 1 billion km per second?
Lulu and I noticed, that the mathematician was no longer with us, that he seemed to be talking to himself, his hands were trembling and sweat was rolling down his face.
- And then, it dawned on me, he continued.
- I've always only moved in one direction, looking for solutions to the endless puzzles in the Universe !! Fool!! I spent half of my life in ignorance, not seeing an elementary thing ... How blind I was!
- I completely forgot about …the Observer !!!
- Here he stopped, panting and catching breath.
- The Observer is the…. center of the Universe.
- Like a pearl in a shell.
- The entire Universe was created for him. The Observer and the Observed, an inextricable interconnected System, and all the laws surrounding the Observer, were created specifically for him.
- If the speed of light was 1 billion km per second. - it would be a different Observer and a different Universe ... !!
- And here it doesn't even matter, who the Observer or Observed is primary - they are equivalent and cannot exist separately ... which of them created whom, or even who created this System.
- By the way, have you ever wondered, why the Universe is so rigidly structured?
- Imagine, that every star has life. It is different everywhere.
- Each inhabitant from his star system is the bearer of his uniquely tuned Universe.
- What do you think will happen, when differently tuned structures penetrate one another ???
-That's right, they collapse.
- Therefore, no representative of a foreign Universe can appear here. This is possible only in one case, when it will have a universal property that the System itself will endow it with.
- What do you think, when the time comes for the entire global System to disappear, knowing, how tightly connected its structure is, how quickly it will happen ???
Lulu and I just shrugged our shoulders in complete bewilderment.
- The entire System will collapse and disappear in one Instant !! exclaimed the jester.
- What I learned, of course, amazed me. I was ready for anything, but not for this.
- But what struck me most of all was not the Observable, but ... the Observer.
- More precisely .. one of his properties, his ability ... It is so grandiose,… that it simply defies comprehension !!!
- Look back - you see those poor fellows, who are down, rotting alive and eating with the dogs?
- So, each of them, being an Observer, has this property. They do not even realize that the Observed - infinite Universe, would give without hesitation for the right to possess this quality.
- What created the Observer and the Observed, according to its design, divided them in such a way, that separately they have parts of one thing in common.
- If you combine these properties, you get a perfect organism for which time, space, size, and many other things do not exist, that I find it difficult to imagine.
- What could move such an organism? Probably, like us - curiosity and interest.
- Each system always strives for something, even the most perfect one.
13.4
The laws.
Listening to the king's jester's narration, Lulu and I lost track of time.
We woke up in complete darkness. It started to rain, but we successfully settled down under the bridge.
After some forgetfulness, he continued.
- As you know, I made a huge number of different discoveries in various spheres of life.
- I can be called one of the happiest creatures, since every discovery is an indescribable feeling of delight.
- In the process of work, I noticed a long time ago one fundamental thing, concerning all my discoveries.
- Behind each of them, there was always some kind of recurring phenomenon.
- Schemes according to which events in life are repeated in the same way, scientists call laws.
- I also noticed, that at the present time we live, knowing only some insignificant and limited number of them.
- There are laws the inhabitants do not even know about.
- Trying to imitate the System, the inhabitants try to generate their own laws.
- Laws are often written for selfish purposes by a narrow group of interested residents.
- Thus, reality is distorted, leading ultimately to the disappearance of the inhabitants for whom they were written and those who invented them.
- The inhabitants have no function to create laws.
- This is one of the most dangerous mistakes worth the life of entire civilizations.
- Of course, for convenience, the laws of the System should be formulated and expressed in an understandable and simple form.
- Thus, an ideal lawmaker is an inhabitant, who, as accurately, reliably and succinctly as possible, describes the already existing laws created by the System itself.
- This inhabitant is disinterested, observant, perfectly owning the means of transmitting information.
- It's impossible ! Lulu and I shouted at the same time.
- Our life is so multifaceted and specific, that we need our own laws governing our being!
- It is difficult to list all the spheres of life characteristic of the inhabitants surrounding lands!
- For example, economic, social, political and so on.
The jester staggered back from us, breathing hasty and barely holding back his anger, cried out so, that an echo echoed under the bridge:
- What fools you are ! How can you be so blind!
- There are no economic, political, social or any other laws !!!
- There are laws of the System, that gave birth to the Universe and are the basis of its existence.
- The Laws of the System are the basis, the skeleton, on which our entire material world is wound.
- All our attention should be paid to these laws.
Lulu and I thought for a minute. And then Lulu was not at a loss and asked:
- It is difficult for us to understand what you are talking about, we have lived all our lives according to the laws, written by the inhabitants.
- Can you give any example of a difference?
- For example from the world of economics ??
The jester slightly changed his position and stretched his stiff legs, continued.
- Nothing could be easier.
- I will give one simple example of the distortion of the law of the System by the inhabitants.
- Let's take everybody understandable basis of the economy.
- Money.
- Money is an invention of the inhabitants.
- At the mention of this word, the most contradictory emotions begin in the majority of residents. From the delight of the rich to the curses of the poor.
- Everyone understands, that this is the basis of our life.
- And it doesn't matter in what form they are expressed. Gold, banknotes, goods and other material values.
- It is generally accepted, that in order to become rich, you need to have certain personal qualities and good luck.
- The process of acquiring wealth becomes like a game, like most other processes in our life.
- Unlike the inhabitants, there is no money for the System !!!
- For the System, there is the concept of Energy.
- It's physical magnitude !! The energy necessary for the existence of the inhabitant !!
- Not a single inhabitant can physically appear in an environment, where conditions have not been created for him in advance. In the form of energy, as in our case.
- Among the inhabitants, through various economic teachings, the myth is spread that the rich created their wealth themselves.
-This is not true. Energy, a living environment provided by nature cannot be created by inhabitants, but only assimilated and distributed among them.
- As in any closed system, the inhabitant is not able to produce more energy, than he received.
- An artist cannot produce a picture of 1 million energy units while receiving 10 energy units for his existence !!!
- Money is an extremely convenient mechanism for trying to selfishly redistribute energy in favor of a narrow circle.
- Imagine, if any inhabitant has allocated to himself not 10 energy units necessary for life, but 1 million.
“This means, according to the law of a closed system, that 100,000 inhabitants will not appear in this world. Or, if they appear, they will face monstrous conditions of existence.
- Earlier I thought, that modern alchemists - physicists and mathematicians came closest to the laws of the System, since they directly work with the Observable - with Matter.
- There is no self-interest here, and it is impossible to forge the obvious laws of nature for everyone.
- But how wrong I was !!
- On the other hand, if everything was according to the rules, life would be boring.
- What is really happening makes my life so interesting.
- Modern alchemists, its higher hierarchy, closed from the rest of the world, went its own way of acquiring wealth.
“They have confused the inhabitants with their endless and deceitful laws about the microcosm and space.
- They came up with many programs for their useless study.
- All this could be called their harmless toys.
- Indeed, no one is against it. Everyone can play the games they like.
- But it's not as easy as it seems !!
-They draw from the inhabitants the giant reserves, energy in the form of money for various pseudo projects, colliders and space research !!!
- And such a substitution and distortion of reality is going on everywhere.
- This leads to disastrous consequences.
- For example, it is one thing to indulge in sweet memories of a long-gone youth or dream of a wonderful future.
- It is quite another matter, to use non-existent time in your formulas and calculations, building a fake world around you !!!
Lulu and I looked at each other, not understanding anything.
The jester, forgetting about us, continued
- But everything ends sooner or later. Their time has come to an end. They, like the dinosaurs in these lands millions of years ago, will disappear soon.
- Of course, they will not disappear as a phenomenon, because the System never fully discloses its plans.
- The System will always remain a mystery to me.
13.5
Teachers.
It was raining outside.
Everything around fell silent. Lulu and I felt dank and uncomfortable.
Even the homeless disappeared somewhere, probably scattered in all directions in search of a suitable lodging for the night.
We were left all alone.
The jester seemed not to notice anything around, and was completely immersed in his inner world.
- Before I continue, I would like to dwell on one extremely important detail, without which absolutely everything loses its meaning.
The jester again plunged somewhere far away, into his inner world.
Then, from somewhere in the distant past, he quietly continued, trying not to miss a single detail.
- I would like to tell you about which no one will ever tell you and is the starting point.
- Everything I said earlier, my successes and failures, my path would not have been possible without them.
- Everything ,that happened to me seems to be a natural course of events, something natural and normal.
- It looks like a beautiful picture.
- This is not true.
- Not everything is as simple as it seems from the outside.
- Remember your childhood, parents, the place where you grew up.
- It all starts right there.
- My first real teachers were my parents.
- It was they, who laid in me the most important and only knowledge, that one inhabitant can teach another - the art of Distinction.
- The ability to discern is essential. Any training begins from him.
- Subsequently, at the beginning of my journey, I also met teachers, who passed on to me the basics and skills of working with myself.
- For all the following years, every day I make the same simple preparations for meeting the unknown.
- And every time, the simplest things lead to the most difficult.
13.6
Beginning.
The jester fell silent for a while, indulging in fond memories. His eyes somehow brightened and he smiled at something, not noticing us.
Then, for a long time he dug somewhere in the depths of his torn and dirty rags and finally, very carefully pulled out something from there.
He put this something right in front of him, and considered it for a long time.
It was very dark, so that Lulu and I could not see anything.
Suddenly, right at the bridge, there was a deafening crack and crash from a sudden lightning strike.
For a moment everything lit up around with a bluish light, and we finally noticed, what the Jester had set in front of him.
It was a children's toy - a tumbler, apparently found by him somewhere in the trash heap.
The toy was a figurine, which, no matter how luggage, it always assumed a horizontal position.
The Jester began stroking it like a child and whispering something to it, as if the toy were alive.
Lightning began to rumble almost continuously, as if trying to drown him out, not allowing him to say anything.
He started screaming.
- You know, a very rare and very strange situation happens in life, which all researchers know about.
- Most consider it a real miracle, which can happen once in a lifetime.
- Almost all researchers secretly hope and wait for this event.
- It is considered a real revelation from above and does not lend itself to logical explanation.
- This happens, when all your life you are looking for something one and specific, but you find something completely different and grandiose.
- It happened to me too!
- All my life I was looking for what seemed to me the pinnacle of wisdom and knowledge - the border of our Universe, but I found it all !!!
- How so?!? cried Lulu and I.
- That's how! answered the Jester.
- I thought, there was nothing more exciting, than finding this border.
But it turned out to be the opposite!
- I have an unshakable rule of thumb for searching, which has never let me down.
- It sounds like "Among the endless variety, always look for the common."
- This is common and there is a thin film, that can be pierced and reach a completely new level of being.
- Remember the tale about a boy with a long and sharp nose, who, looking at a painted picture hanging on the wall, accidentally pierced it.
- Pierced without the slightest effort with his own nose !!
- Looking through the hole, he had made, he saw….another world.
- This is the most ingenious hidden clue of all the world's books, put together in all history, read by me.
- A simple children's fairy tale !!
- Always look for this point.
- Puncture point, entry point.
- Any researcher in his search always relies on the laws, that have developed in the world around him.
- To put it simply, they always relies on the Laws I told you about.
- It doesn't matter, which field of research you take, everywhere there are laws.
- There can be an infinite variety of them.
- I began to consider all of them with only one definite purpose - the search for something in common.
- The very, hidden, secret essence of the beginning.
- I was looking for an answer to a grandiose riddle, but still, a private one.
- And I found the key to solving the common !!
- So, let's get to the point.
- Working with many different Laws in various fields, I found one common property in them.
- Moreover, absolutely all Laws proceed from this property, as a starting point, basis, reference point.
- I do not know, who first paid attention to it, and how it appeared in our understanding.
“But if you ask me, which of all the discoveries of the world is the most important, I will name it without the slightest hesitation.
- And what is it ?!? Lulu and I cried out in disbelief.
Lightning began to flash almost without pauses, and the Jester sat completely bathed in blue light.
He sat motionless for a while, then shouted:
- Imagine Something self-organizing !!
- This Something can choose to exist or not, to appear or disappear.
- It is absolutely free and omnipotent!
- Once it decided to appear.
- Imagine yourself in the place of this Something!
- What is the very first question before you?!?
Lulu and I shrugged in confusion.
- The very first question that arises is this:
- And on what General Principle will this existence be based ???
- This Something undoubtedly understands, that an infinite number of self-organizing and independent forms of its existence will arise.
- But how to maintain and control them ??
- There must be something in common, that suited everyone and united them into one single organism.
- And this Something found the answer, and decided to build its existence on a very simple and understandable property.
- This property is called …..Equilibrium.
There is absolutely nothing in this world, that is not subject to it !!
- Moreover, the very idea of Equilibrium is the Beginning of Beginnings, the point of origin of everything you see.
- Even if there is a higher power, that created this world, it also exists on the basis of the Balance.
Despite the madness, that reigned around us, Lulu and I listened mesmerized, afraid to miss a single word.
- Why is Balance so important, what does it give us ?!? Lulu screamed with all her might, trying to shout over the thunderclaps.
- Look around !! shouted the Jester in response.
- Balance is the same universal puncture point, entry point.
- If you are confused in solving any problem, start with Balance!
- See this Chaos, what is happening now ??
- In this hurricane madness, there is one greatest mystery, which I bet you don't even have the slightest idea !!!
- You should solve it soon !!
- How ?!? screamed Lulu,
- If we don't even know what to look for?!?
- This is your Road! shouted the Jester in response.
- Nobody can solve it for you !!
- But, I will give you one single clue! he screamed.
- I can never get used to how grand the System is, how everything works in it !!
- For all seeking travelers, it opens up truly endless possibilities.
- The Mystery of Chaos opens the door to a completely new world, unknown to anyone.
- The System gives you everything you can take !
- And here comes the most important moment, at which absolutely everyone breaks their backs and disappears into oblivion, without understanding anything !!
- As you know, everything in this world has its price. Nothing happens here just like that.
- The Mystery of Chaos is no exception, it also has a price!
Lulu and I whistled in disbelief.
- The System gives you everything, but you have to pay in return.
- How ?!? We screamed with impatience.
- Is it really possible, just like that, to take and buy the secret of the new world ?!?
- Yes, answered the Jester.
- And what is the price ?? we exclaimed.
- You must do, what no one else has been able to do before you !
The Jester shouted in short sentences, as accurately as possible, with all his might, so that we could not miss a single word.
- You must do the impossible !!
- That, for which you live, that against which your Mind rebelles!
- That, which you cannot yet understand.
“But this is how perfect Balance works.
- The higher the rates, the higher the price.
- You must give up the most valuable thing in your life!
- You must give up ... from Yourself !!!
The hurricane seemed determined to sweep us and our bridge into dust.
Without giving us time to recover, the Jester continued to shout:
- So !! he shouted with all his might.
- Let's go back to where my search began - to the border of the Universe!
- As you can see, it strives outward and it strives for Infinity !!
- According to the Law of Balance, I just have to find a mere trifle!
- It remains for me to find something, that simultaneously strive for…. Zero !!!
13.7
Battle.
Lulu and I listened, afraid to even breathe.
“Like any proper jester, I immediately took up the experiment.
- This time, I decided to change tactics, not as usual, with all my energy to go ahead, destroying everything around, because it would be useless.
- I decided to deceive it, to lure the enemy into a trap.
- Yes, yes, shaking his head, and with some unhealthy chuckles, continued our friend.
- In general, I understood, that I was risking my life, but I could not stop.
“It was a border, that was carefully guarded.
“Anyone, who tries to approach it, will be immediately neutralized.
- But since there is a border, does it mean someone is crossing it?
Lulu and I asked at the same time.
- You understand, it is impossible to cross the border - it’s as if a mollusk tried to tear itself away from a shell, it’s the same, as trying to escape from itself - it’s impossible.
- Wherever the Observer goes, his entire Universe moves with him.
- And then, to admit, I got into a dead end, continued our friend.
- But I'm not used to retreating, then he looked at us with some kind of adventurous and conspiratorial gleam in his eyes.
- Nothing is impossible, right?
- In ancient times, our planet also seemed infinite, and it was also considered impossible to leave it.
- So, why is it impossible to leave our Universe?
- That's why we and treasure seekers, he said with a broad smile.
- Otherwise, why live?
- In any case, the one, who can cross this border will have to have such a reason, necessity, right and opportunity.
- Nobody just accidentally approaches this border. And of course an external force watching this.
- I will conditionally call the external force beyond this border Non-existence, since we do not know anything, that is beyond it and cannot be known.
- We constantly look in the mirror, unable to look behind it.
- I am a realist and perfectly understood, that I would not be able to cross this border of my own, albeit small, but the Universe.
- I did not pose any threat to the System, like some kind of upstart, who decided to get into, where it was not necessary.
“But I was eager to test my theory.
- As soon as you come to this border, the guards start to get nervous.
- I decided to prove my theory about the boundary of the Universe, to provoke its response.
- As naive as it sounds ... it was my only chance ...
- Call the guards ....to battle ...
- So, I knew, what I was looking for, the place and the time.
- The next day, I left at noon and headed straight to that place. It was the month of March. The sun was shining brightly against the blue sky ... The dazzling snow was magnificent. I went down from the bank, and went out onto the crystal ice of the frozen river. The snow sparkled along the banks so, that it blinded the eyes.
- After a long winter, the sun was pleasantly warm.
- I came to the place and waited.
- Yes, all that was required of me and depended on meekly waiting.
“I knew, that Non-Being was here and was watching me, probably with surprise. Nothing else could confuse me. My mind was as clear as ever.
- So I stood for several hours. In vain. Nothing ever appeared.
- The next day the situation repeated itself. Also without result.
- I began to walk every day, like a possessed, unable to think about anything else.
- Gradually, I began to fall into despair.
- I took my sword, and, screaming from resentment and despair, I began to shout out various insults, challenging Non-Being to fight, brandishing my weapon.
- Yes, exactly for the battle. Because any secret was like an enemy for me. And I used to take everything with a fight, without thinking about anything.
- It was pure suicide.
- Do you know, what a fight with Non-Being is?
- It's as if you went out to fight, on swords, with your own reflection!
- To defeat it, you need to move faster, than yourself !!
- From the outside, it probably looked strange. The king always sent a guard behind me secretly, and they reported to him about my every step. He must have been sad to hear his favorite jester go mad.
- It took about two months. Two difficult months of uncertainty.
- I have already begun to put up with my fate, and that there are things we cannot change, and I will have to end my days in ignorance, that for a scientist the most unbearable punishment.
He leaned back against the wall, straightened up, and took a deep breath.
For a long time he sat with his eyes closed.
Then, Lulu and I heard a low voice:
- I remember that very evening down to the last smallest detail.
- After my next outing, I returned to the palace, and decided to while away the time as usual, reading a book.
“Something unimaginable was happening outside the window. There was a real snowfall in huge flakes. The inhabitants were bustling about their business. Numerous carts scurried about. Life went on as usual, everyone was in a hurry about their business.
- The snowfall intensified to the point, that it looked like a solid wall. It was already hard to see, what was going on outside.
- Some kind of calm music was playing in the hall.
- I sat by the window, and watched, thinking about something of my own.
- Gradually, I noticed how some kind of unusual calmness fills me, which has not been for a long time.
- Minute went by minute.
- I began to guess, that something unusual was happening.
- Gradually, the lighting in the hall became somehow dim, colors and sensations began to disappear ... Everything around gradually became somehow ... insipid and unreal. The street lights began to blink erratically. Half went out altogether.
- Slowly, I got up and turned to face the window.
- Standing, facing the window, I slowly straightened my clothes, feeling, that the very solemn moment I have been waiting for all my life ….has finally come.
- There was no fear ... There was endless calmness.
- I realized, that what I have been looking for all my life is right now… here, opposite me, behind this wall of snow.
- Some kind of force did not allow me to budge. If I wanted to run and hide, I couldn't do it.
- Probably, this is similar to the feeling, when your last hour has come, and you cannot do anything.
- Endless helplessness and loneliness gripped me.
- Time has become somehow viscous, outside the window, what was before that bright life, turned into a black and white performance of puppet actors, awkwardly stumbling, aimlessly moving somewhere, like an invisible puppeteer pulling their puppets by strings.
- That bright life, to which I am so accustomed, has been replaced by something infinitely dreary, indifferent, where nothing ever happens, and no one is in a hurry. It was a truly awful feeling.
- For some reason, I immediately noted to myself, that I would not want to live, albeit forever, but in such a world.
- Gradually, along with the falling flakes of snow, some kind of curtain…. began to subside, as if washing away the dirt from the window and I … finally saw ...
The Jester was silent for a moment, with tears in his eyes, breathing heavily and swallowing a lump in his throat, he said slowly:
- Me and Non-Being stood opposite, looking at each other. Only the glass of the window separated us.
- Several hours passed ... Gradually, life began to return to its usual course.
- For two weeks I was just elated. I didn't even have anyone to share with, because they probably thought that I was completely crazy.
- At court, and the king himself, everyone noted my enthusiasm, and thought, that at last their kind Jester returned to them, as before.
- I thought so too.
- I thought it was all right. My anxiety was fictional and exaggerated. Nothing terrible happened.
- The fact is, that the Observers meet directly with the Non-Being in two cases - when they die and when the Observer crosses the border on his own business.
- I did not refer to either case.
- On my own initiative, I chose my path and ... lost ... But I have no regrets! he exclaimed with burning eyes. I would not hesitate to repeat all the same.
- Now I understand, why Nothingness has waited so long. It just didn't know, what to do, and doubted. It gave me a chance to live, knowing, that if I tried to deceive him by posing as someone, who I am not, I will inevitably die.
- The majority, after meeting in the battle with Non-Being, go crazy almost instantly.
- I’m even afraid to talk about the rest.
- From the very beginning of my journey in the study of the world, I was constantly tormented by the same question, ….what is knowledge for? What is the meaning and benefit of it ???
- After that meeting, I understood everything, and one more riddle became less.
- After the first missed hit, the inhabitant completely loses all social connections. Everything, that he was taught from childhood in society. Morality, behavior, everything, that connects him with society disappears.
- With the second missed blow, all ties with the closest people are destroyed. All friends and relatives cease to exist.
“With the third blow, you don’t know….. who you are.
- At the end of the battle, only pure knowledge remains. As if, for example, you know that you have two hands, but it hurts so much, that you confess to everyone in any quantity, that you are ordered to recognize.
- But you will die anyway with the knowledge, that you have two hands.
- Knowledge is your guide in any battle.
- No matter, how terrible the battle is, no matter how the enemy throws you, knowledge is your only weapon and beacon.
- True knowledge is the only thing, that will be the last to leave you.
There was a long pause.
- It took about a month, he continued, as I began to notice some changes taking place in me.
- It became difficult for me to concentrate even on some simple things, not to mention scientific work ... My memory began to let me down.
- Pretty quickly I began to turn into a plant.
- How long I still have until the final disintegration of my personality, I do not know, but the count goes on for weeks.
Then he could not resist, clutching his head shouted
- I do not want to be seen like this !!
It was already deep night on the street. It was as if I woke up from some kind of oblivion. Nearby, Lulu was wiping away tears flowing in a stream.
