    About this ebook

    It is easy to distinguish what it is from what it is not, just by telling them apart. Since this is the simplistic, empirical approach while studying existence. Yet what exactly is existence itself? How or where does existence exist? Is existence limited to the human existence, human cognition, or the humankind? Yes, because all living beings are defined by existence, just because the term ‘being’ implies to be, to exist. However, the term ‘real’ implies the same. Because the concept ‘existence’ has a multitude of terms defining it, and now we have to consider them while studying existence in all details. And as you notice, we are not looking for a superficial, empirical study, because we already have one, since we already know that everything that exists exists and everything that does not exist does not exist. We want more, we want a comprehensive study of existence, from all perspectives: existential, rational, living, interconnected, social, objective, analytical, created, consensual, cognitive, natural, mathematical, consensual, developmental, scientific, fiat, empirical, subjective, philosophical, ideological, highjective, accurate, algorithmic, legal, and correspondent. Only that, from all these distinct perspectives of existence, we end up with a distinct type of existence, as we have to consider these.
    But what exactly is there escaping the senses of perception of all living beings in this world? The nonexistent, certainly. And what exactly exists and takes place beyond existence itself? Again, it is the nonexistent. Yet this is the case only for us and from our perspective, since existence is relative to any observer. You have one existence defining you, and it is your own existence. And in this manner, you may exist even on your own, and you still exist, for yourself. Yet for others, if they never encounter and never interact with you directly and implicitly, then you do not exist for them, you are simply part of the inexistent according to them, and so are they for you, from your own perspective. Because there might be zillions of worlds and realities similar to ours, but if they never interact with us, then they never exist for us, while we never exist for them. And this is the case for all realities, because nothing exists objectively at the exterior of any reality, not even the concept of ‘exterior’ itself.
    We already notice how existence is capable to define everything as existing or not, in this simple Boolean manner. And this is the case because existence stands towards the base of our world, defining everything within to exist, to be real, or simply to be, since it is the same concept. However, when you try to define existence itself, you cannot, since there is not much below it to form a meaningful base of knowledge defining it, but only the absent, the missing, the unreal, or the nonexistent, distinguishing existence trivially, by contrast. This is your only mean to define accurately existence now, as being different from the nonexistent, and this is why you end up with a Boolean depiction for existence. To be or not to be. But never to be and not to be. While existence defines everything else in a similar Boolean manner: you either exist or you do not. You either interconnect with others being part of their existence, or not. You are either alive, or not. You are either fulfilling throughout life, or not.
    Throughout this book, we study existence entirely, through accurate facts, from all perspectives and in all circumstances, in order to understand it accurately. Furthermore, we use existence to define, understand, and explain everything related to humans and human life. And since existence stands at the base of everything that exists, this accounts for everything.

      About the Author

      1 Everything That Exists

      It is easy to distinguish what it is from what it is not, just by telling them apart. Since this is the simplistic, empirical approach while studying existence. Yet what exactly is existence itself? How or where does existence exist? Is existence limited to the human existence, human cognition, or the humankind? Yes, because all living beings are defined by existence, just because the term ‘being’ implies to be, to exist. However, the term ‘real’ implies the same. Because the concept ‘existence’ has a multitude of terms defining it, and now we have to consider them while studying existence in all details. And as you notice, we are not looking for a superficial, empirical study, because we already have one, since we already know that everything that exists exists and everything that does not exist does not exist. We want more, we want a comprehensive study of existence, from all perspectives: existential, rational, living, interconnected, social, objective, analytical, created, consensual, cognitive, natural, mathematical, consensual, developmental, scientific, fiat, empirical, subjective, philosophical, ideological, highjective, accurate, algorithmic, legal, and correspondent. Only that, from all these distinct perspectives of existence, we end up with a distinct type of existence, as we have to consider these.

      But what exactly is there escaping the senses of perception of all living beings in this world? The nonexistent, certainly. And what exactly exists and takes place beyond existence itself? Again, it is the nonexistent. Yet this is the case only for us and from our perspective, since existence is relative to any observer. You have one existence defining you, and it is your own existence. And in this manner, you may exist even on your own, and you still exist, for yourself. Yet for others, if they never encounter and never interact with you directly and implicitly, then you do not exist for them, you are simply part of the inexistent according to them, and so are they for you, from your own perspective. Because there might be zillions of worlds and realities similar to ours, but if they never interact with us, then they never exist for us, while we never exist for them. And this is the case for all realities, because nothing exists objectively at the exterior of any reality, not even the concept of ‘exterior’ itself.

      We already notice how existence is capable to define everything as existing or not, in this simple Boolean manner. And this is the case because existence stands towards the base of our world, defining everything within to exist, to be real, or simply to be, since it is the same concept. However, when you try to define existence itself, you cannot, since there is not much below it to form a meaningful base of knowledge defining it, but only the absent, the missing, the unreal, or the nonexistent, distinguishing existence trivially, by contrast. This is your only mean to define accurately existence now, as being different from the nonexistent, and this is why you end up with a Boolean depiction for existence. To be or not to be. But never to be and not to be. While existence defines everything else in a similar Boolean manner: you either exist or you do not. You either interconnect with others being part of their existence, or not. You are either alive, or not. You are either fulfilling throughout life, or not.

      Throughout this book, we study existence entirely, through accurate facts, from all perspectives and in all circumstances, in order to understand it accurately. Furthermore, we use existence to define, understand, and explain everything related to humans and human life. And since existence stands at the base of everything that exists, this accounts for everything.

      Yet let us see what this world knows about existence. Because now, after ages of human civilization, human development, and therefore human knowledge, this is what it is known about existence, that what exists exists and what does not exist does not exist. Or ‘I think, therefore I am.’ Or ‘to be or not to be,’ defining existence and everything else as already seen, in this specific Boolean manner.

      Yet there is more to consider, since we have two choices now at the beginning of our model of existence. One is Boolean as already seen, having only the existent and the nonexistent in this world and nothing else in between, as in to be or not to be but nothing else, and the other one considering everything else in between, an entire range of probability and agreement defining consensually and even statistically an entire assumed or speculative existence, bypassing the accurate one. With the entire consensual existence part of the entire current human society, with quantum mechanics included. Yet quantum mechanics is based on advanced mathematics and many times on enforced assumptions and observations, which are consensual. And in this manner, quantum mechanics contorts the accurate existence into the probabilistic existence blended with the consensual existence, while accurate existence itself is Boolean, having only two states, the existent and the nonexistent, with nothing else. To be or not to be, and this is accuracy.

      And it is meaningful to know the actual case defining existence, since we cannot have both the accurate and the consensually accurate, being mutually disjunctive. You cannot decide now consensually among your ideology or jurisdiction that the sky is blue, since this is already the case. However, you can always decide consensually within your ideology or jurisdiction that the sky is yellow, and this becomes the consensual, ideological, juridical truth, that the sky is yellow. The blue color of the sky exists accurately, while the yellow color of the sky exists only consensually, ideologically, scientifically, or judicially, however you have managed to instate it, because this is how it exists now.

      The sky is blue, and you do not have to agree upon it since the color blue of the sky exists accurately. But does the sky itself exists? Yes, since you can see it in the sky, it is there. Yet when you study the existence of the sky closely, you find it of an apparent type of existence, or empirical one, since you cannot go there to see it closely, objectively yourself. However, if you want a tangible existence, or an objective one, then you have to study it in all details. To notice how the optical light is dispersed in the blue color by the ozone molecules of the atmosphere. This is the accurate existence of the color blue of the sky, but not of the sky itself. Because the sky that you see is actually the entire space or universe out there beyond the orbit of Earth.

      And now, does the universe that you see in the sky exist? Yes, since this is what the current science states. But does it exist accurately in this manner, or consensually, or only apparently? You cannot tell from the surface of Earth. Even more, the current science is consensual in nature, and you have to consider this, since in this manner, it confuses the consensual existence with the accurate existence, confusing you. And the more confused you are, the more controllable you become.

      Yes, you may see the universe in the sky at night and during the day, with the sun, the moon, all stars, and all galaxies included, since you can see everything very clearly even by using very powerful telescopes. Yet this is only an empiric or apparent type of existence, but not necessarily the accurate existence. Because as long as you are not capable to perceive or distinguish the accurate existence firsthand, intelligently, and objectively, what is left is not the nonexistent, but it might be the consensual existent, or the apparent, empiric existent, the fiat existent, the algorithmic existent, or the ideological existent.

      The current science and the entire current society trick you in every manner to confuse all types of existence in order to control you better, and this is why you always have to reason on your own. Or not, since many people love it under control, most of the humankind. But now, through their own composite consensual existence, they force you into anything they agree. And this is the first consensual developmental level.

      While the current science is consensual entirely, based on agreements, which may be accurate or not, since science is based on an entire scientific consensus but not directly on the accurate existence. Because if science falsifies space records, then this is only the trickery or the fiat existence, but not the accurate existence. And now, if you do not have a firsthand, tangible, objective perception and therefore comprehension of the universe beyond the lower orbit of Earth, you cannot be certain if anything beyond the lower orbit of Earth exists. Space records always help, but if even these space records are inconclusive, you still cannot tell if the universe exists accurately beyond the orbit of Earth.

      Did the big bang actually exists? How can you ever tell accurately, if you could not be there to witness it firsthand? Yes, there is a theory in this world associated to the big bang itself, the big bang theory, currently promoted by science consensually, yet the word theory means speculation and therefore not accuracy. Which means that the current science states clearly that the big bang took place in theory at the origin of the universe, and therefore not accurately. The big bang did not exist accurately but only theoretically or speculatively, theory that is accepted currently in a consensual manner by the entire scientific consensus of the current science.

      As you notice, it is very important to know everything about existence, since existence stands at the base of this world, while standing at the base of your cognition, defining truth and accuracy entirely. More precisely, you place existence at the base of this world, in a conceptual manner. Because existence itself is a concept of another concept, and it is important to know. It is similar with the spacetime continuum, since the spacetime continuum, along with all systems of coordinate, do not exist accurately or objectively in this world or in
