After all this while, I have come to believe that all human studies are driven by a singular motive – to discover the truth, with which we can weave our way through the masses and define our own form of success, within our short span of a few decades in this realm.
Success can be further broken down into 2 main schools, the first, which finds success in knowing the truth alone (the absolute school), and the second, which leaves the definition of success to the surrounding forces, namely other people, as we no longer interact with animals to define ourselves (the relative school).
Both schools have scorned each other over the years, and have deviated such much, that like the birth of a tree, breaks itself into branches and stems and leaves, and perhaps the leaf has forgotten is was, and is still part of the tree.
Having spent most of my free time (a rather measly amount) pursuing both success and the cause behind it (the invisible forces that govern the universe and the visible forces, both natural and man-made), I have come to conclude that all knowledge can be broken down into 3 simple categories, in which we will find relation in between.
The 3 categories are basically the Spiritual, Physical and Human Schools, or in Chinese, we would write is as 天，地，人. Within and between this 3 schools, we have defined so many other schools it would be seemingly impossible (on a humble blog post), to name all of them. However, I have tried filling in the blanks to the best of my knowledge, and here goes:
The Spiritual World: The vast unknown field of information and knowledge that the universe so willingly provides, but we are somehow not able to grasp fully with our limited current intellect and our overwhelming occupation with the 2 other fields, mainly the human field.
The Physical World: The world we live and reside in, some call it earth, and some call it the 3rd Dimension, whatever. The basic physical laws that somehow govern our actions when we are conscious, or when we think we are.
The Human World: Ah, a most complicated world, a world of problems created by ourselves thanks to our inherent habit of wanting to get more by doing less – basically we are lazy creatures. A world of laws, systems and institutions. A fervent bank of articles to justify our own existence.
Of course, not all the 12 aspects can be sufficiently filled with our current vault of knowledge, and perhaps my definition is far from correct, and is again merely an addition to the billions of other perspectives out there. Nevertheless, this is my feeble attempt to consolidate the various “streams”.
By the construct of nature, we should be, by ourselves, adept enough to master all the fields of knowledge, without the help of additional tools. The vastness of the human mind is hardly tapped, but oh well, the fact that I am using a computer to type this, and words that were not formed of my own brain shows that we are (or at least I am), already incapable of fully using my physical and mental faculties.
My recent studies into astrology and what the common man would call “fortune telling” leads me to discover a rather interesting pattern; that not all are born equal, and some simply have better prospects to success than others.
I am, sadly, a fanatic of equality, and believe we are all born to a balanced universe. The explanation to the inequality can simply be found by the fact that we no longer live by natural laws. In fact, most of our life is governed not by the laws of the universe or that of earth, but by laws laid by other people. Given the fact that everyone wants to be at the top, it only makes sense that the books of law no longer spell equality, because if everyone were equal, nobody would be better than the rest, and nobody would be able to do less and take more.
However, does it mean those born of lesser chance (in a manmade world), are destined to live a lesser life. The answer is an obvious NO. Why so, as seen in the above model, not all schools are filled, and even if they were, the studies and conclusions we have reached thus far are more relative than absolute.
Our science is based largely on assumptions, brought forth by our math, which till now cannot figure out the difference between 0 and infinity, and is ridden with paradoxes. Our systems, built by man, who is flaws, are also flaws, and so perhaps while many “lawbreakers” are caught, even more escape the hands of law.
As all this reveals itself, I find my path clearer by the day. This is what I am perhaps destined to do. Wealth and power are just means of implementing change after I figure out what exactly to do with the complete set of knowledge. But first, I must figure it out…
