42 reductionism to reduce (28-10-2011)
I was born on the seventh of february nineteenseventy. For you this seems mad, for me to see it today after all this time it's almost frighteningly baffling. You've probably see me use my first name using the number 42 as A and R, they fit. You also know that 42 is the answer to the question of life, the universe and everything in Douglas Adams fenominal book The Hitchhiker Guide To The Galaxy. A book I've adored and read many times way before I remembered why we're here.
Much later, years later, I stumbled across the Tao te Tsung, written 2500 years ago. Verse 42 from these acient texts confirmed my discovery of life´s trinity, what I discuss in most of my my writings. The life force consisting of the ancient pain&pleasure theory echoed still today turns out to be a dualistic force uniting all life, hunger and lust. To eat and reproduce. But feeding contains both. Not to feed will eventually hurt like hell, while eating in plentyful times won´t hurt a bit. Verse 42 goes something like this
from the tao came the one
from the one came the two
the one and two created
the three.
So what was most likely the first action of life when it was born 3,5 or more billion years ago, not reproducing, no, no... feeding. Life started when it experienced pain, somehow life could deal with this pain. By eating. Hunger and Lust, those are the motivators for life to feed. A derivative of feeding for pleasure arrived over two billion years later, lust for sexual reproduction. Fear of pain and the will to survive are even stevens. Hunger, Lust and Fear, the core of life´s consciousness, the trinity of experience.
When I connected the two 42´s I found, this number became somewhat holy to me. And today after almost 14 years of gnosis combined with scienctific logic, I found out that when you literaly use reductionism, the core of scientific reasoning, on my date of birth, 42 will be the answer...
I was born on february seventh nineteenseventy. Here in the Netherlands we write it like this;
07-02-1970
I know this is just stupid and doesn´t prove anything, it really doesn´t. After all these years of seeing the number 42 all over the place, I only found out this today;
in reverse: from right to left splitting into two´s, then subtracting each number from the ´next´ you get:
70 minus 19 minus 2 minus 7 equals: 42.
what the fuck....
