Hacker News is not the correct venue to discuss mysticism, occultism, and esotericism more generally.
What I'll say on the matter is that both religious and esoteric texts place high importance on groupings like this. Certain texts may provide explanation for the generations of particles.
They are worth investigating with an independent mind, while assuming that what you're reading is incorrect.
- SketchySeaBeast 7y agoWhat is an "independent mind"?
- waterheater 7y agoSome people view those texts as infallible sources of information. Other people view those texts not as sources of information at all but as lunacy. The reality is somewhere in the middle, but it's also a spectrum. Science verifies information. The issue with these texts is that it's very, very hard to verify anything being said. It's much easier to provide counterexamples to disprove it. By using the phrase "independent mind," I mean: it's worthwhile investigating these texts, but go in with a truth-seeking mentality, not a disproving mentality.
