ARISTOTLE WAS AN IDIOT
Aristotelian logic is destroying our world. The world must stop adhering to this old style of logic and begin viewing all things as One if the human race is to survive for any decent length of time.
The way to sidestep around this trap of Aristotle is to see all things as One, with no particular leanings to either end of the pole. Be in the middle. Walk the middle path between the extremes. Observe with a scientific mind all that occurs before you in life. Remember. Be calm. Let nothing, no occurrence, no matter how seemingly polarizing it is, influence you to remain on one side or the other. Always be in the middle. See all as One and be One with it, and Peace Eternal will be yours.
This doesn’t mean that you cannot act utilizing one polar extreme or the other. In fact, this is exactly what must be employed if one is to keep the equation from deviating too far to either side. Be it perceived as negative or positive, whatever occurs too far out of balance is always returned to the center by a neutralizing action of the manifestation’s opposite. Outright war always comes to an end one day or another. I will not say that war is followed by ‘peace’ because what we call peace is little more than a break in the fighting (like the rest period between boxing rounds) that lasts for an undetermined amount of time, be it days, months, years, or even whole generations. A cease fire is not peace. Peace is realizing that all is One and there is no sense fighting anything because how can a One Thing fight itself, if not through a horrible delusion of individuality, of awful selfishness that induces the human being to see his fellows as anything other than equal, as one member of an enormous family.
In the field of mathematics, do numbers go to war with each other? From the right viewpoint it may seem so. But always remember that it is we who set them in motion, arguing with each other for supremacy and domination of the equation. But it is the middle point of the numbers that stops it all. The Zero that sits right in the center of the set of Integers is the ring-pass-not. The Zero is the axis around which the numbers swing and revolve but never can destroy. Seeing all the numbers of the set of integers as just different expressions of the infinite set of integers, the Zero offers us a clue to how we might rid ourselves of Aristotelian logic.
Add a number to 0 and you get the same number. The spiritual master who is in the center is like the zero. The student cannot selfishly add anything to himself by uniting with the master. The student ends up the same as before, the same number as before—far from the center, where he really wants and/or needs to be.
Subtract zero from a number and you get the same number. The skeptic, the detractor, the atheist, etc., cannot take away anything from a spiritual master (zero) by his logic, nor can he be moved by his critic’s arguments for polarization. The attacker ends up the same as before—as far from the center as he ever was, unable to move the master over to his side.
Multiply any number by zero and you get zero. The student can do as his master does, emulate him, emptying himself of himself, so that through disciplined effort he may also come to the center where he may be unmoved, just like his master.
Divide any number by zero and you get Infinity. The master’s efforts can help the student shatter his ego and empty himself of himself, so that he sees the entire set of Integers and realizes that it is all One thing, represented by an impossible number—Infinity.
The entire set of Integers, from negative Infinity to zero to positive Infinity, is just one thing in Truth, and not, as Aristotle would put it, a separated set of things. The numbers are just arbitrary points or graduations from a science called mathematics which help us decode the One Thing from a perspective of difference and separation. But in Truth, it is One Thing, and not separate as Aristotelian logic has taught us.
