eal essence of falsehood exists in that
which is truer than true. That small
existence is what allows verity to be
recognized, for without the yin, there can be no
yang; there must be equilibrium. They are because
the other is. I am because you are; therefore I am
a necessary creation of balance. There is an equal
and opposite force for everything. This force
creates a never-ending chain reaction of causes
and effects.
Humans only realize they are alive because death
has shown itself in a scientifically undeniable way.
In all stories that depict one idea or way of life
being unanimously accepted by humans, there
is always a negative catalyst or some figure or
force that opposes the consensus. In the Bible
this necessary evil is represented by Lucifer.
This represents the basic a well-known balance
between good and evil. Humans will never
see world peace. Humans will never see world
destruction until the Sun destroys the Earth. Even
the most powerful force known to man, nature,
is controlled by balance. All hurricanes have
constraints and inevitably lose strength and return
to calm weather. All fires will eventually go out.
he universe has a pattern in which it grows,
prospers, and eventually terminates itself.
Then it regenerates itself and the cycle
continues infinitely. The nature of the world is
to remain on this repetitive cycle. Humans are
merely a temporary disease to the Earth; an
annoying scratch on the Earth’s back.
here have been many “beings” that have
existed wherever they could survive in
the universe. “Beings” must use time,
which is a device of our own imagination, not
of reality because “beings” are transitory and
meaningless to the universe. Infinite is a concept
that “beings” cannot understand because nothing
we experience or have is infinite.
he universe does not exist, it just is.
“Beings” exist because we are not actually
a part of the cycle of the universe. “Beings”
aren’t actually permanent. “Beings” have souls
or energy trapped inside the measurable limits
of “being”. The planets and stars and moons
and galaxies are all “beings” as well. They are
eventually terminated by the cycle. The universe
is like a wheel on a bicycle, beings latch onto it
and experience the full cycle of the wheel. As the
wheel spins forward, we move forward with it until
we reach the top of the wheel and as the wheel
continues spinning, we are lowered and lowered
until we are crushed underneath the wheel. The
wheel does not lose any speed as we ride to
the top or as we are demolished underneath its
force. The wheel doesn’t even recognize that any
“beings” are on it or even there at all.
have used the example of balance to explain
everything thus far, and this example helps me
to understand one question that I could never
answer. According to the balance that holds all
this together, there must be one constant holding
everything together, a center. Every balance has
a centerpiece that is the Balancer, the foundation,
the origin. The center of a balance creates the
equilibrium. In the center, there is no struggle
to make anything better or worse, there is no
need for help, it is perfect. A wheel has a center,
a radius. The radius has radii that connect it to
almost every part of the wheel. The radius is a
point of balance and equilibrium.
n the balance of all things, in the wheel of
the universe’s cycle, there is the perfect origin
and final destination at which all energy starts
and returns. This brings me to my final point.
Relating the yin and yang theory, for there to be
life there must be death. Therefore, the energy
and spirit that sent life from the perfect origin to
the “beings”, the same equal and opposite force,
must return us to the origin. Life does not end and
then death begins; life transposes into death, and
death is when we cease to exist and truly “are.”
Emily Dickinson describes the soul of “beings” as
“finite infinite.” As a “being,” we are trapped in a
mere existence. When the balance tilts and rates
are once again made equal, the finite part that
makes one a “being” is negated by the origin, and
all that is left is infinite, the infinite the origin has
sacrificed for a soul.
