In life we are part of many events till we dont exist to be a part of any. So, we try to think
on the lines like, how significant are these events?.... Yes some events have some substantial
effect in our life span, some not much. But, when we try to define the significance of that event
we have to consider a pool of events to compare its importance with the rest. To frame it in
better words, the proportionality of this event with respect to other events.i.e, the significance
of an event is defined by valuating its proportinality with the rest of events in the pool.
Let, p be an event, Xp be the value of this event and S(Xp) be the significance of this event.
therefore,
S(Xp) = Xp/(X1+X2+X3+.......+Xn)
to find the absolute value of S(x), we have to consider all the events that has happened and may
be those will happen too. So, n -> infinity.
Hence S(Xp) = 0.
Hence, any event has no significance. So, any event can be called as "NOTHING".
This can be seen as some form of Total Perspective Vortex phenomenon, as thought by Douglas Adams
World is made of these events, we can say that EVERYTHING in the world has no value. As
EVERYTHING comprises of all these ZERO valued events.
So,
EVERYTHING = NOTHING !!!!
=> NOTHING = EVERYTHING !!!!
EVERTHING IS NOTHING, NOTHING IS EVERYTHING!!!!!
But, obviously the above system is flawed.
One of my friends, reminded me of the mathematical equation
Lt
X -> 0 sum (nX) != 0
n -> infinite
The summation of all these insignificant events has some value,
which can be considered as the value of all the events in this world.
Hence, however insignificant the event may be, but it is necessary that you do your bit. As the world is made of these insignificant events.
I think:
ReplyDelete1. Define the object. One who is at the receiving end. An individual, a community, a nation, a planet and so on. It must be made clear on whom are you checking the impact of an event.
2. Eqn. S(Xp) need not tend to zero. If for some p, Xp blows out of proportion, S(Xp) tends to 1 ==> p to be the most significant event. What inherent assumption you have is that Xp is always finite and Sigma_Xp is not equal to 0. What about happy and sad events and their signs?
3. The limit you mention is not necessarily zero. In fact, I think it is not zero.
4. Also, reactions of individuals to events are not only a function of significance S of the event. Value has a significant role to play. Shock events, like heart attacks for example.
