  • Gravity is neither a force nor a consequence of any space-time curvature. It is simply an orderly spatial illusion to non-spatial observer/s.

  • It is human to search for the theory of everything and it is superhuman to find it.

  • The existence of God is not logically necessary, and yet, on the basis of some profound peculiar empirical order in the universe, it seems that He exists as the ultimate uncreated Being, implying a paradox, as no logically unnecessary entity can be uncreated. This paradox is the ultimate question asked by God, who is nothing but the ultimate questioner.

  • Every noble action is selfish. Some selfish actions are nobler than others. But they are all selfish. And as such there can be no action purely noble anyway. Even the nobility in God's great philosophical intentions is bounded by his vanity.

  • Christianity would be helpless without the idea of freewill and the idea of freewill would be helpless without incongruity.

  • True love is like religion. It is full of devotion and free of doubt.

  • The world is a contradiction; the universe a paradox.

  • A fundamental condition of Being is slavery. Man is the slave of God, and God that of His vanity.

  • An idealistic lover is a blind lover, and therefore a true lover; a pragmatic lover is a sighted lover, and therefore a false lover.

  • Any systematic body of knowledge is science. The more systematic the body of knowledge is the more scientific it is.

Such innovation can only be a work of a non-spatial mind, like a human being, and only such innovation, it should be acknowledged, can pave the way for further scientific achievements.

  • I am philosophical Christ; crucified on the cross of ignorance for the sake of divine vanity.

  • I have far more reasons to rather disbelieve that a man besides me suffers when he cries, yet I have far more sentiments, than those great reasons, to instead weep for his, far less likely, sufferings.

  • I have no proof for any proof.

  • I know what the world exists for, but I know not how it came into existence. I see the design, but not the designer. I understand the question, but not the questioner.

  • I wish I can enjoy no food but food for thought.

  • If God were to exist for the entire humanity, he would be profoundly vile, as he allows the existence of unfathomable sin, stupidity, madness, and misery for no reason than his own despicable enjoyment. God exists though, not for all humanity, but for a one chosen man - a philosopher - who is bound to answer the greatest philosophical question, the question about the nature of the questioner's existence, which progressively quenches the divine vanity.

  • If knowledge is my God, doubt would be my religion.

  • If Krishna is good, Christ is good, Allah is good, then Hitler cannot be bad.

  • If the universe is a non-spatial computer, a 'time machine' is a program that allows a user to have the same (ontologically non-spatial) feelings or experiences that occurred or s/he merely feels to have occurred in the past, with an in-built function to have different feelings or experiences than those of the past, and thus creating a possibility to change the past or to rewrite history in a pseudo sense.

  • Laugh and a moment will soon arrive when you cry.

  • Life is painful to be meaningful.

  • Life is too meaningful to die.

  • Life, by which I mean my life, is a great, or probably the greatest, design, from its very beginning to its end, the end that, I think, is unlikely to exist. Each and every bit of life is a part of the design. Design exists as the consequence of the ultimate questioner's vanity. And my mission is to find the most fundamental truth, which probably and exclusively involves the nature of the existence of the ultimate questioner.

  • My existence is such that "I" do not really exist. At the end of understanding so much I understand that I know nothing. I suffer for being surrounded by intense suffering and yet I'm deeply suspicious if first of all there is indeed any consciousness except me. I strive to find the artist who might have fathered this great universal art but feel myself to be too feeble to accomplish this seemingly unattainable mission. Yet I have every respect for life, and it is this sheer respect that makes me live.

  • Necessity is the ethnicity of truth.

  • Noble spirits are heterodox.

  • One of the great intellectual mistakes Einstein made is that he thought that space and time are physically or ontologically entangled. In the present non-spatial universal computational program, space and time happen to be entangled to the extent that, under certain unique circumstances, changes in spatial measurements indicate changes in temporal ones. However, a change in the program itself may cause space and time to disentangle.

  • Optimism is the staunchest worshipper of life.

  • Pain is a poison; pleasure an intoxicant.

  • Philosophy is the only excuse God has for his cruelty and vanity.

  • Religions, themselves, are (intellectual) blasphemies.

  • The angel within me thrives on the devil within me.

  • The best of humanity is philosophy.

  • The final discovery is the discovery of knowledge.

  • The goal of science is to understand the fundamental reality and the goal of technology is to change that reality.

  • The greatest art is philosophy.

  • The language of God is Mystery.

  • The meaning of life is 'the ultimate questioner's vanity.'

  • The more I find life to be a great design, the more I suspect it to be singular in existence; the more I suspect it to be singular, the more I feel it to be specific and personal; the more I feel it to be personal, the more I think of it to be a mere question; And the more I think of it to be a question, the less I understand the questioner.

  • The most fundamental law of tragedy is that the moments of greatest happiness are the hardest to attain.

  • The mother of creation is vanity.

  • The non-spatial nature of consciousness makes it possible for any apparently unconscious entity to be conscious, and vice versa.

  • The only absurdity in which I find equally immense compassion and morality is Christianity - though the compassion is outlandish and the morality is blemished.

  • The pearl whose possession separates man from beast, the pearl which is the rarest find - the best among virtues - is forgiveness.
