Chapter 153 'Truth, Philosophy and My Worldview' (Part 2)
"... From the perspective of magical philosophy, it is not easy to give a clear definition to the concept of 'truth'. Because the word 'truth' has different meanings, depending on whether it involves a
An empirical fact, a magical theorem, or a new theory of magical explanation."
"As for the concept of 'truth', I simply can't imagine any clear connotation...Future exploration of magic can weaken the traditional classical magic theory by encouraging broader causal thinking and providing a higher-dimensional vision."
Influence. I firmly believe that all meticulous magical research should be based on a passionate belief in reason or the cognizability of the world itself, similar to religious emotions."
"The deep-rooted belief that the cognizable world is a manifestation of super rationality is my understanding of 'truth'. To express it in a popular way, it can be called a 'pan-magical philosophy'... I can only
Looking at 'classical magical cognition' from the perspective of magical history and magical psychology, I have nothing to do with it beyond that."
"...I strongly yearn for a simple and regular life. And I often find myself denying the excessive efforts of my compatriots and it is unbearable. I think that the simple distinction based on blood and ethnic group is unreasonable. What it ultimately relies on is
Based on violence. I also believe that a simple life, both physically and mentally, is beneficial to every existence."
"I do not believe at all that freedom in the philosophical sense exists among wizards...The behavior of each wizard is not only subject to external compulsion, but also must adapt to internal necessity, the great wizard Arthur Schopenhauer said'
A wizard can do what he wants, but he cannot have what he wants... I have always felt that the vulgar goals pursued by possessing magic - gold, strength, honor and a long life - are despicable.
"
“…I wish only to be content with the eternal mystery of truth, with being aware of the marvelous structure of the existing world, catching a glimpse of it, and making a sincere effort to comprehend, if it were possible to do so, a portion of reason as it appears in nature.
Even if I only understand a very small part of it, I will be satisfied."
"The great wizard Antonio Gramsci wrote in "Prison Notes", 'The old world is dying, but the new world has not yet been born'... He is full of confidence in the new world, just like I am in the future of this world.
It's like being full of confidence. And unparalleled confidence is the true meaning of leading to a higher level of the magical world."
"I once heard someone say something - life is like a set of dominoes. As the days go by, the dominoes fall one by one, and we will eventually reach the future that was fixed long ago. The explanation using dimensional theory is
, the timeline will always converge at the end of the past and the future. The end of the past is 0, the end of the future is 1, and between 0 and 1, there are countless possibilities. It is like a huge, constantly fluctuating
Green olives. Knowing this, we will have the greatest tolerance for the countless possibilities in the process."
"No matter in this process, you have been a white man, a magician, a wizard, or a monster."
"The above is my philosophical thinking about the truth and my understanding of the world."
"On the evening of September 12, 2009, at First University.①"
…
…
Two young wizards stood on the edge of the grass, reading the article carefully.
The early morning sun was not hot, but it had a refreshing brilliance that fell on their shoulders and on the thin newspaper, blurring out the color of unripe oranges and exuding a focused and pure atmosphere.
breath.
a long time.
Xiao Xiao put down the newspaper in his hand, stretched out, and took a deep breath: "As expected of our dean... What an ordinary yet extraordinary article."
Fatty Xin chewed the meat buns and squeezed over, saying in a vague voice: "I don't need you to tell me to know that the whole article is full of shadows of magical philosophy, which is much boring than the content in his class... The only understanding I have after reading is '
That thing's true."
'That incident' refers to the Beta Town Post's claim that Lao Yao is a demon. Although no one can discuss this topic openly under the school's emergency 'public relations', it does not prevent the students from using various lingoes.
Communicate each other's opinions in a subtle way.
This is also the topic that has caused the most confusion in Jiuyou Academy in the past two days.
Many first-year students who had just joined Jiuyou Academy were running around like headless flies because of this incident. Even the opening ceremony that just ended last Friday was not talked about by anyone, as if it happened a long time ago.
Therefore, when he said the last sentence, the fat wizard's tone was filled with obvious resentment, so much that the aroma of the meat buns was washed away and became much duller.
Xiao Xiao looked back at him and adjusted his glasses.
"It's true, and it's not true either." The apologetic fortune teller once again used the yin and yang language commonly used by diviners, and said with relief: "Just like what was said at the end of the article, we should be aware of the countless possibilities in the process.
sex with the utmost tolerance'."
"This sounds like it can be used anywhere." Fatty Xin muttered, but his hands were not free. He quickly peeled off a tea egg and stuffed it into his mouth. This made his voice even more chaotic: "On the battlefield of the Black Prison
, the school’s wizards don’t seem to have much tolerance for those ‘possibilities’.”
This is a bit exaggerated.
Zheng Qing didn't pay attention to the whispered discussion between his two companions.
He was holding the newspaper alone - after Xiao Xiao let go, the entire front page fell into the hands of the young public-funded student - he read the last few paragraphs of the article carefully, and felt that the content written by Professor Yao was very familiar.
So while reading, he slowly searched his mind for his not very rich experiences.
Soon, the wizard recalled the origin of these words - a few months ago, when he was lying in bed in the school hospital and feeling depressed, Mr. Wu had visited him and said similar words in the ward.
At that time, my husband also said something else. At this moment, the young public-funded student, holding the newspaper, couldn't help but repeat it: "Any judgment that is separated from the biggest variable of time will go further and further in the wrong direction."
In my ears, the low-pitched argument between the two companions came to an abrupt end.
Fatty Xin took a big mouthful of soy milk and narrowed his eyes thoughtfully.
Xiao Xiaoze glanced at Zheng Qing in surprise: "You can understand it to this extent, which shows that you really understand Lao Yao's article... What he wants to do is just be a pure person who is free from low-level taste."
Wizards', as the article says: The vulgar goals pursued by magicians - gold, power, honor and a long life - are despicable."
