The give-away is that there are many types of neutrality, but, only one type of "no order", unless you want to fret over stuff like Complex zero being essentially different from Real zero.Originally Posted by DGenBen

And even that "one kind" of no order is slippery—because the moment we try to define it, we give it a boundary, and therefore a kind of structure.
Which was a very early thought in my own theory: I needed the theory to join it, but, had to join it to get the theory.Originally Posted by DGenBen.Originally Posted by MHFThe give-away is that there are many types of neutrality, but, only one type of "no order", unless you want to fret over stuff like Complex zero being essentially different from Real zero.Originally Posted by DGenBen

A man is driving down the road and breaks down near a monastery. He goes to the monastery, knocks on the door, and says, My car broke down. Do you think I could stay the night? The monks graciously accept him, feed him dinner, even fix his car. As the man tries to fall asleep, he hears a very strange sound, the most beautiful and alluring sound he has ever heard.
The next morning, he asks the monks what the sound was, but they say, We can't tell you. You're not a monk.
The man is disappointed but thanks them anyway and goes about his merry way. Some years later, The same man breaks down in front of the same monastery. The monks again accept him, feed him, and again fix his car. That night, he hears the same strange sound that he had heard years earlier. The next morning, he asks what it is, but the monks reply, We can't tell you. You're not a monk.
The man says, All right, all right. I'm dying to know.
If the only way I can find out what that sound was is to become a monk, how do I become a monk?
The monks reply, You must travel the earth and tell us how many blades of grass there are and when you find that number, you will become a monk. The man sets about his task. Some 54 years later, he returns and knocks on the door of the monastery.
He says, I have traveled the earth and have found what you have asked for. There are 145,236,284,232 blades of grass, but I realized the earth is ever changing. New blades of grass are born and old blades of grass die.
The real number of blades of grass on the earth is unknowable. In fact the only true knowledge a man can have is his own limitations.
The monks reply, Congratulations. You are now a monk. We shall now show you the way to the sound.
The monks lead the man to a wooden door where the head monk says, The sound is right behind that door. The man reaches for the knob, but the door is locked.
He says, Real funny. May I have the key? The monks give him the key, and he opens the door. Behind the wooden door is another door made of stone.
The man demands the key to the stone door. The monks give him the key, and he opens it, only to find a door made of ruby. He demands another key from the monks, who provide it.
Behind that door is another door, this one made of sapphire, And so it went until the man had gone through doors of emerald, silver, topaz, and amethyst.
Finally, the monks say, This is the last key to the last door.
The man is relieved to know that he has finally reached to the end .
He unlocks the door, turns the knob, and behind that door he drops to his knees in astonishment as he sees the source of the sound.
But we can't tell you what it is because you're not a monk.
Holy, darn, that was one of my next thoughts: How to find such a theory, but, then, go on to relate to others? A theory which benefits only the one(s) who discover it.Originally Posted by DGenBenThat reminds me of the story of the monk:Originally Posted by MHFWhich was a very early thought in my own theory: I needed the theory to join it, but, had to join it to get the theory.Originally Posted by DGenBen

Some truths "liberate the soul" but cannot be transmitted, only experienced.
They ignite when the mind is ready.
Your discussion touches upon Zen.
I like it.

Buddha's Zen
Buddha said: "I consider the positions of kings and rulers as that of dust motes. I observe treasures of gold and gems as so many bricks and pebbles. I look upon the finest silken robes as tattered rags. I see myriad worlds of the universe as small seeds of fruit, and the greatest lake in India as a drop of oil on my foot. I perceive the teachings of the world to be the illusion of magicians. I discern the highest conception of emancipation as a golden brocade in a dream, and view the holy path of the illuminated ones as flowers appearing in one's eyes. I see meditation as a pillar of a mountain, Nirvana as a nightmare of daytime. I look upon the judgment of right and wrong as the serpentine dance of a dragon, and the rise and fall of beliefs as but traces left by the four seasons."

Oh, boy, it looks like the anagram solver continues to be updated with new solutions, and, mine above is already out of date. When using only the first thus solution, it tends to remain as it is because added solutions, to the anagram site, are unlikely to affect it. But, when going by the last thus solution, there are a lot of other solutions before it, which in turn makes it much more susceptible to one of the added solutions displacing it as the last solution. So, to recover the last thus solution, I had to make a slight change to the original anagram problem, in terms of putting a zero in for the o in one. I guess also to find zero in one. Hence the follow-up post of the follow-up post.Originally Posted by MHF

Now I don't want to waste such an unusual post as this on only the above, and, so, I thought to add in another bit such as VCT life in QK death, with QK = Qwerty Keyboard.

You might be a king or a little street sweeper, but sooner or later you dance with the reaper. [In second-last spot, 523.]
You might be a king or a little street sweeper, but sooner, or later you dance with the reaper. [In last spot, 524.]
https://anagram-solver.net/besttofin...s?partial=true
(523+524) =[-1 + (-1 + 500 + 5*5) + (-1 + 500 + 5*5)] ---> 1/(1/555 + 1/555) ---> 555_555, for the two reaper solutions.
And, notice that the first spot was an unrelated thus solution, which reminded me of my analysis of Pinball's faked last post #777, at https://vegascasinotalk.com/forum/sh...l=1#post197696 , which has an unrelated thus solution in last spot, similar to the quantum decoherence or instability, of my first follow-up post. Interestingly, two spots up front, and two spots in behind, for the thus correct solutions, are involved in also my second follow-up post. And, it's nice to find the match for also this type of post.
Incidentally, as of a day or two ago, the number of blog views were:
Neat numerals, with a 555, 343 = 7*7*7 ---> 777, and, a 696 for 1961 .

Sigh, but, 224 = (220 + 2^2) ---> 222, which is were I was trying to end up, anyway. Sort of like being where I didn't go. Ha.
