Omniscient and Almighty

Chapter 555 New Courses
"One one gets two, one two gets three, addition, in the mathematical system, this is the result."

"But mathematics has never been for mathematics. It doesn't make much sense to talk about mathematics without specific things."

"There is a record in Wang Yangming's "Biography and Xilu". Wang Yangming traveled with his friends, and one of them pointed to the flowers and trees in the mountain and said: "Old Wang, as you said, there is nothing outside the world. But like this flower, it grows naturally in the deep mountains. Opening and falling, what does it matter to my heart?'”

"Wang Yangming's answer is?" Mr. Chen paused.

Xu Guangling continued: "When you haven't looked at this flower, this flower and your heart have died together. When you come to see this flower, the color of this flower will suddenly become clear."

Mr. Chen nodded with a smile, "This is to look at everything in the world from the standpoint of a human being, emphasizing the uniqueness and centrality of human beings.

"The flowers and plants in the mountains bloom and fall by themselves. 'The plants and trees have their own hearts, so why should they be beautiful?"

"But we are human beings, and we cannot talk about everything without human beings. What is good and what is bad, what is useful and what is not useful, all of these require a precondition, which is the human standpoint."

"Without a position, there is no good or bad, no use and no use."

"From us to me, leaving 'I', and talking about everything in the world is also meaningless."

"It's just like me, if the old man's braids are now, then the next moment, tomorrow, and later, I say that no matter how good trees you plant, what delicious food you make, no matter how good the things are, it has nothing to do with the old man gone."

"Outward radiation, China, the whole world, the entire earth, the entire solar system, the entire universe of heaven and earth... everything has nothing to do with the old man."

"So the world is both big and small."

"The big one belongs to them and theirs, and it belongs to everything in the world and other human beings; the small one belongs to the old man himself. Now, the old man's world is only this mountain and you two."

"Trees need roots, and people have their roots. A tree is as tall as it is, never leave its roots, and no matter how prosperous a man is, never forget his roots. No matter how flourishing the flowers are, or how the fire cooks oil, if you leave the roots, they will soon wither Death.

"Only by understanding the fundamentals can we have a stable existence and further development."

"In the mathematical system, this is a coordinate system, the establishment of the origin of the coordinates."

Xu Guangling nodded solemnly.

"It is meaningless to talk about us, human beings, and the whole world apart from me. Many people in this world don't understand the difference between 'I' and 'us', and often regard 'our' as 'mine' ’, and fall into a false contentment and flourish.”

"In the modern society, knowledge is exploding, the economy is very developed, and science is very prosperous."

"How many trillions of GDP are there?"

"A new generation of artificial satellites has ascended to the sky again."

"The detection of the telescope has already extended how many light-years beyond the earth."

"These, from the standpoint of 'I', are all flowers and embellishments. Using mathematical thinking, we can strip away the background, fly back the physical and mental consciousness from the far point of the world coordinate system, and return to the world from the far point. Back to the original point, from colorful to black and white, although you know white, but keep black, to purify your body and mind, stick to and develop the fundamental."

Xu Guangling nodded again.

This is exactly what he is doing right now.The achievement of awareness requires him to return to the basics, he needs to abandon the white and keep the black, and he needs to abandon all the worldly things, and come here to be an unknown hermit in the nameless mountain.

"It is false to talk about everything without me, and to talk about mathematics without everything."

"The fundamental meaning of mathematics is to measure and construct other systems as quantitative and variable."

"One, two, three, four is the foundation, and addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division are changes. Quantitative and variable are the two major elements of mathematics. Expressed in our culture, they are yin and yang. Yin is quantitative and constant, and yang is variable. It's always changing."

"Invariance is not really constant, but gradual change."

"Changes are not real changes, but changes according to certain quantifiable rules. On the basis of mastering the rules, they can be regarded as unchanged."

"It's like the rotation of several large quantities of the solar system."

"They are changing all the time, but from another perspective, we can regard them as constant, even if we don't need to observe them, we can quantify their position at any time."

Xu Guangling nodded.

"This orange." Mr. Chen weighed the orange in his hand, "If it is placed here, it will slowly rot."

"In this process, the change of the date is addition, one plus one plus one plus one, and it keeps adding."

"But the rotten speed of oranges is not additive. The rot is due to the growth of microorganisms, and the multiplication of microorganisms is explosive, so the rotten speed of oranges cannot be a simple addition, but other algorithms must be introduced, such as Multiplication, such as powering."

Xu Guangling nodded.

"So, mathematics is born out of necessity."

"There is a phenomenon in our world, which is extracted and mapped to mathematics. It becomes the 'addition' in mathematics. There is another phenomenon in our world. This phenomenon is extracted and mapped to mathematics. , it becomes 'multiplication' in mathematics."

"So, what is mathematics? Mathematics is the reflection of everything in this world."

"Our understanding of the world is getting deeper and deeper, and the number of algorithms we need to establish is more and more complex."

"So, mathematics is also an indicator of world civilization, just like a thermometer. If there is civilization, there must be mathematics, and the height of mathematics development usually represents the height of people's understanding and application of this world."

"If in the future, we travel the universe and encounter another civilization."

"How to understand, analyze, locate and measure this civilization?"

"The best, fastest, and simplest way is to study its mathematics. Each formula, each algorithm, corresponds to each phenomenon."

Xu Guangling nodded again, and because of what the old man said, he decided to include mathematics in his study and research projects.

In addition to medicine and food, he wants to become a master of mathematics.

"What is mathematics? Mathematics is a map of the world."

"What is math?"

"Number first, and shape second. Mathematics before the seventeenth century was simple numbers and shapes. It can be perfectly applied to the static world."

"But this world is not static, but dynamic."

"The rot of an orange is dynamic, and if I throw this orange, the whole process is dynamic from after the throw to before it hits the ground. Simple numbers and shapes cannot describe this phenomenon."

"Mathematics starts here, from constant mathematics to variable mathematics."

"Whether it is constant mathematics or variable mathematics, what they describe are inevitable and definite phenomena. But in this world, there are still some phenomena that cannot be described with certainty and definiteness."

"It's still the rot of the oranges. If a box of oranges is placed there, how many days will it rot? How many days will it take before they will all rot?"

"From a purely mathematical point of view, it is inevitable, with definite numbers."

"But in terms of actual phenomena, it is uncertain. The size and texture of this box of oranges, the location and time of storage of this box of oranges, the factors of the box of this box of oranges, etc., all form many complex problems that cannot be simplified. Quantified 'number'."

"So in this case, even variable mathematics is not enough to describe this phenomenon, and things such as probability must be introduced. From here, mathematics will step into probabilistic mathematics and fuzzy mathematics."

Xu Guangling still nodded.

"Constant mathematics, variable mathematics, probable mathematics, and fuzzy mathematics, these are also the four steps of the development of mathematics in our world, from ancient times to modern times."

"Today's first lesson, we will start with constant mathematics."
