54 My Imperial University Graduation Thesis: "The Truth of the World"
We are mortal.
We think with the flesh and speak with the flesh.
It is impossible for our minds to go beyond the physical body.
Therefore, we make mistakes.
What mistakes we have made, we must admit them.
-
-
We are human beings, we look at the outside world, through our feelings.
We can't even know if the outside world exists!
There is no relationship between the substance and the feeling, not a relationship of proof, nor a relationship of opposition.
How do we know the world?
Observation, Iteration, Experimentation, Comparison, Self-Consistency, Prediction......
We approach the truth, but we can never approach it.
Feeling is the world's only connection to us.
Language is the only connection between us.
The truth of the world is hidden between feelings and words.
And not in kind.

Real?
Strange concept.
Conception?
Strange language.
Our language is wrong, and our logic is confusing.
For example, the dragon does not exist, but we have its concept, language, and even logic and theory. We even have its inner and outer extensions, such as the types and names of dragons: Prison Ox, Gaze, Mocking Wind, Pu Prison, Fox, Racque, Negative Dog, Kiss, Pig, Kiss, Gluttony, Worm, Pepper......
For example, if something is a dog, we say, it's a dog. Right. We say it's a dog. That's right, too. It's loyal, we say, because it's a dog. That's wrong.
We talk and talk about concepts, but these words, sounds, concepts are not created by us, but by others.
After the spread of countless paths, everything is mixed.
The truth of the world is hidden.

We have to understand what an entity is of an entity.
They say that what is the entity of a certain entity, what is. By no means so.
The real entity and concept are the entity and the concept.
-
-
Yet we sadly find that this is synonymous with repeating.
-
-
So, we have to start from scratch and overturn all concepts.
Then, reconstruct these concepts from the very roots.

A fountain pen, naturally, is a fountain pen. It is a fountain pen. Does that "pen" exist?
So-and-so, naturally, so-and-so. He's human. People are crowds. The crowd is the empire. Do "people", "people", and "empires" exist?
In addition, justice, morality, filial piety, truth...... Do these words represent physical objects, concepts, and exist?
Oh, we can explain them. Whatever the interpretation, the explanation is substitution, and the explanation is annihilation. Because if it cannot be explained, it cannot be understood, it cannot exist; If it can be explained, it doesn't have to exist.
For example, two is one plus one. But after you know that, two doesn't have to exist, because it's one plus one — as long as there is one, why two? In the same way, three is one plus one plus one, or one plus two, and there is no need to exist. Thus, the whole of mathematics (natural numbers, real numbers, irrational numbers, calculus, multidimensional numbers...... It's all meaningless. Math is all about one plus one.
In the same way, justice, morality, filial piety, and truth...... It's all explainable, and it's the kind of most terrible explanation:
Some people say that in addition to the specific names of "a pen", "a dog" and "so-and-so", all concepts such as justice, morality, filial piety, and truth are ...... None of them exist.
It has been said that the God of creation gave absolute truth to every concept, but this does not need to be explained because they were created by God.
They are materialism and consciousness, or materialism and idealism, or realism and nominalism......

Materialism shows that there is no need for this world to exist because everything is predestined.
Everything is from small to large, and everything is meaningless.
The question is, everyone is also material, who can say that they know the truth of the world better.
There is no god in the world, and everyone is the same noble human being.
Can we improve as humans? When and where will it be improved? Will we, who have improved, become the truth—or the God?
-
Consciousnessism shows that there is no need for this world to exist, because everything is internal.
Everything is from big to small, everything is meaningless.
The question is that everyone is also conscious, and who can say that they know the truth of the world better.
If there is God, everyone is the same lowly mortal.
If there is a God, why doesn't God appear? It has to be a son of God, a prophet, a representative. Why?

The relationship between the two of them is still that relationship: substance-feeling.
We tried to cross the bridge between the two, but we couldn't.
Perhaps there is only faith - we pretend to cross ourselves.
Faith is not about believing what is credible, but about believing what is unbelievable.
If faith is about believing in something credible, then faith will become indifferent all the time.
Religions cannot be trusted, but among so many religions, there is always one or several teachings that are self-consistent—superficial and temporary.
Whether you believe in the gods or "don't believe", it is faith.
To believe is to believe in what is not believable. If you have to say that faith is believing in credible things, then you haven't even touched the door of faith — or rather, you haven't even touched the door of unbelief.

However, some people still want to ask.
These people who are still asking, the people who come after these people, these people who have descended from history, these elite people, are like pavilions on the beach, like mirages on the sea, at this time and this place, they no longer know all the concepts, but they are still alive like this.
I—mind you, it's me, not us—thinks that everything is in relation to "choice", "meaning", "purpose...... Or something like that.
We choose "who we are, where we come from, where we are going", we choose the meaning of life, we choose whether we are mortal or divine, we choose whether human nature is good or human nature is evil, our choice is our goal, our purpose is our choice, our process is our end, and our end is our process.

If there is any relevance to this kind of thinking, it is this: no one in this world is right.
Oh, you ask, is your phrase "no one is right" right or wrong?
I don't know.
We don't know anything about the world.
Oh, you must ask, "We don't know anything about the world" is known?
