You have the illusion of choice. The choice you're going to make is already determined, because you already made it. To explain this one has to erase the linear concept of time from their mind. Everyone’s life is a bizarre tree, with each branch a "choice." But if you look at that tree, you will realize that when there is a fork in the road, only one branch exists. The other is blank. The could-have-been we invent in our minds. It couldn't have been because it wasn't.
There really is no free will. The degree of our success in life depends solely on circumstance. It is all circumstance. And though chance seems something unpredictable, something chaotic, something random, it has all been written in stone from the beginning. We are unwilling puppets in this theatrical performance and each event, each action has already been woven into the fabric of space and time. Indeed, where is the time? Time is nothing more than the fourth dimension, and as much as the third dimension and the second dimension are motionless and constant so is time. Everything we do, is constant—our lives are but geometric figures in the fourth dimension. They stretch to certain places and we merely trace them to the end.
Other people are merely connectors. The webs of our relationships expand outward, in a way forming bizarre lines that connect us all together in the fourth dimensions. In essence, humanity is but one geometrical object in four-space, connected spindles. Yet the connectors are always alone—there is always some gap between the two connectors and there is no way to close that gap.
We are lonesome cogs in a machine. It is because we exist in four dimensions, we are limited. It is the sheer environment that has predestined every thought of creative we ever had.
So what is in the fifth dimension then?
The answer is dreadfully simple, a greater freedom. In the fifth dimension we cease to be part of the geometric figure of humanity and become something more. And if a lone 4D segment dares escape into the fifth dimension he’d have a freedom unparalleled in the fourth dimension. But to do that, he’d need to expand beyond humanity and grow a fifth dimension property. It is a lofty goal to transcend into the fifth dimension, to escape.
What if that is what we have been doing in past lives… What if we started with the first dimension, without length without girth—simple theoretical points. Then our next life, we may have drifted into the second dimension and then the third. In the third we were nonsentient objects, trapped as rocks in time. And now we are in the fourth dimension. Now we’re at the tricky part. The fourth dimension is defined by time, and we have only a limited time before our lives our extinguished and we meet an unknown fate.
The connections between the dimensions aren’t necessarily that arbitrary, to escape a dimension, one merely needs to rotate one’s perspective. As one would rotate a point to reveal it is in face a two dimensional line… as one can rotate a square to reveal it is a cube. And the connections we could never imagine will be revealed, much like the connection between the square and the circle. In two dimensions there is no comprehensible abstract connection between a square and a circle, but if we move to the third dimension, we merely need imagine a cylinder. Look at it from the side and it is a square, turn it vertically and we see the circle. In the fifth dimension we will draw forth connections between that which we cannot yet comprehend.
But here we must toil until we reach the freedom of the fifth dimension. Here we must look onto our fixed fates and examine our imperfections, and struggle at our shells, try and pull the strings that manipulate us. Perhaps we’ll be able to break the strings and become something completely different.
Sure, we’ll meet the challenge of the fifth dimension and the sixth… but String Theory has shown us that the universe exists in only 11 dimensions. That means our transcendence will eventually allow us ultimate freedom. We shall become the universe; we shall become perfection.
No longer will there be anything in a higher dimension manipulating us. For whenever we move a box, we shift a life. Anytime a being in the fifth dimension moves us, our lives change drastically. But can we observe the affect we have on our stapler when we use it? Does the Fate of the fifth dimension know the effects on all of our lives every time we are manipulated?
No matter. The better question is how we can transcend. Though it is impossible to know, without actually transcending, the answer lies within our minds—within thought. Because it is thought that can pierce through the fabric of time and space. In thought we may sometimes lose track of time and where we are. In dreams we leave the limits of the fourth dimension behind. But our thought reflects our environment--unique thought doesn't come out of nowhere, it comes from the culmination of the experiences of your life. We must experience the world to gain more insight—to gain ideas. As we interact with others, with objects, with our environment we gain insight to another perspective… another side of the geometric figure we are part. And once we gather enough of this insight we can finally see it as a whole and in essence become something more. Our actions are limited by circumstance, but our thoughts are our own.
Yep thats the meaning of life.
