Famous Dejan Stojanovic Quotes

“God of itself is nothing, and the Nothing of itself is nothing. In the absolute, without the world's existence as a plurality, God equals nothingness, and therefore the whole Absolute is nothing. The world is the Exit of the Absolute through God into nothingness and, in that way, into existence. The primordial essence in this manner becomes existence. Once the Being (God) and the Nonbeing (nothing) are united, neither one is nothing anymore. In this way, not only does the Absolute save itself, but it also saves the Being and the Nonbeing. This Nonbeing (nothing) is not nothing anymore but becomes something equally crucial as the Being itself.”

“Oneness: Unity between the Universal Mind and the World The divided One is still the One. The undivided One is the One that sleeps. The modus operandi of the One is union in division and division in the union. There is no escape from the One. No division can damage the oneness or wholeness of the One. There is only one Organism. Although the Source is in the sphere of meta or transcendence, it is still the One with the World. Creation is not separate from the Creator. It is the Creator itself. Not only can the World be separated from the Creator and stay One simultaneously, but the World creates and powers the Creator in the opposite direction. The Source of Everything powers Everything, and Everything powers the Source. Without the Source, there is no World; without the World, there is no Source. The Purpose is the Source of the Source. The purpose is in the division and creation. The life of the Source is the World.”

“The Original Universal Force, the Creator of Everything, unites the whole Universe in a single organism (the same in every direction and at any time). On the immaterial level of Reality, Einstein’s “Cosmological Constant” [Λ] may function as Absolute Oneness. The underlying Reality encompassing Everything is an invisible singularity (oneness).”

“The world is determined by its essence (the Universal Mind's “immaterial substance”) and by its universal laws, which are the same everywhere and are determined. If they are determined, that implies no uncertainty, but this conclusion is incorrect. Regardless of the essence from which everything comes to be (or is transformed), its manifestation, or its material substance, the world (Universe) will constantly evolve differently in any particular manifestation. The starting point, if nothing else, will always be different and form different universes in every specific manifestation. Both the Being and Nonbeing are limitless, which makes them “infinite,” and infinity is zero. Their frame is the Absolute itself, simultaneously providing the absolute limit and potential (infinity). The purpose of the world and the Absolute is not one particular existence and one particular world (Universe) or one life but a continuation of existence (universes) ad infinitum. Without infinity, there would be no real life because, at one point, existence would cease to exist forever, and it would be as if it had never existed. But infinity (although never reachable) secures continuation. Any manifestation of the Absolute, in the form of the World, follows the uncertainty principle, preserving the youth of the Absolute and originality (uniqueness) of any or all universes existing simultaneously or at any past or future time. The “Dimensions” we can never explore are not some exotic dimensions of the string theory but rather the “dimensions” of the micro-micro and macro-macro-level that humans will probably never reach. We can bypass the laws of physics only if we bypass the consequences of physical transformation. If we could operate on the level of pure information and return to the material form, not only would time travel be possible, but more valuable and fundamental endeavors would also be possible. When we say time travel, we do not mean traveling to the past or future using a time machine. That would be something similar to alchemy. Perhaps humankind, or any other species, can never achieve this level of science and technology except God. But we can imagine Beings transcending their physical existence and becoming immaterial. We can also imagine such beings on other levels beyond the “physical” world and existence known to us. The Ultimate Source, the Universal Mind, is the Ultimate Alchemist of Reality and the Universe.”

“If we state that there is something, this statement confirms and proves the existence of something (even if it is not a confirmation or proof of any particular something). Otherwise, there would be no way to state anything if there was not something in the first place. Even if there is nothing but an illusion in our head, it is still the existence of an illusion in our head, which is something.”

“If we think in this way, then we indirectly state that non-existence is impossible because the very existence of its non-existence denies its non-existence. If we continue following this thought, we may conclude that it sounds so paradoxical that our knowledge, comprehension, the world itself, or, perhaps, our language by which we try to explain and understand it is insufficient.”

“By their nature, abstract theoretical questions lead to tremendous philosophic or scientific discoveries. In that sense, they are essential and should be highly encouraged, regardless of how abstract, impractical, or inconceivable they may seem. On the other hand, if such questions only satisfy the fancies of those pursuing an argument for the sake of an argument, they are mainly worthless.”

“If our mind, regardless of being limited, is viewed in the context of reality or existence, then we can assume one existence consisting of all other existences and consider it as one reality of which, most likely, as our experience shows, most parts will not have the complete grasp of its totality. Nevertheless, they will still be able to participate in it, with a larger or smaller amount of knowledge coming from experience (with or without the help of language).”

“Even if we assume all Reality, all existence, in its totality, as an illusion, we still affirm and confirm the existence of reality—the existence of existence itself. What matters is existence itself and not the attributes we apply to our idea of reality. If there is existence, then there is a reality. Existence itself is a reality. Our characterization of reality as an “illusion” doesn’t change the fact that there is reality (even if it is a reality of an illusion). If there is a reality, then there can be no illusion about the existence of existence. The only illusion may come from our understanding (or misunderstanding) of reality and its various manifestations and expressions.”

“If we imagined “space” before any universe came into Being, there would be only an absolute vacuum. Absolute vacuum is not “contaminated” by anything; no matter, no energy, everything is pure because only nothing can be completely pure. Primordial vacuum, as we know, is not space because where every imaginary point is the same, there is no point and no distance from anything to anything; this means there is only a zero.”

“If this something is only the Universe we are able and capable of experiencing, or if we imagine the Universe, which is, most likely, the real, much bigger one, the space would still bear the characteristics and “colors” of the one we can experience. Beyond this realm, there would be no other point of reference (Universe), and this Universe would be only a speck in the realm of nothingness. Even if this Universe emanates some of its fundamental forces into the realm of nothingness, this would still be of minimal reach regarding the potential “vastness” of “space” (vacuum) outside that universe. With one Universe like this, there would still be no distance between it and anything else and outside of it (or, precisely, after some point outside of it); time and space, as we understand them, would not exist.”

“Regardless of how far or how close any hypothetical point in space and time would be, it would still be the same point because nothingness is the same everywhere. The only point of nothingness is nothingness itself. There is no real space beyond nothingness and no real-time. The only way for nothingness to “survive” or “outlive” its nothingness is to live with the Being and move into the Being. The symbiosis of the Being with the Nonbeing is the source of life and space and time (space-time continuum).”

“If there is only one small Universe, as ours is, in comparison to the vast potential of the Being and the Nonbeing, then this Universe would be smaller, in comparison to this potential, than quark is in comparison to our Universe. At this point, we will bring in Einstein’s Cosmological Constant (“biggest blunder”) to clarify and present this idea within the context of dark energy and the Macro-Universe.”

“Suppose we use cosmological constant interchangeably with dark energy. That leads us to conclude that this kind of a universe, like our own if limited to our perception of it, would not be a sound basis for explaining dark energy or cosmological constant within the realm of the Absolute or its potential. The real meaning of the Absolute is not the Absolute itself but its potential. Its potential is both in the Being and in the Nonbeing.”

“Not only the “infinitesimal” Universe like ours (from the point of the Absolute) would not meet the standard of the cosmological constant, it would not explain the dark energy, but it also would not meet the standard of nothingness or the absolute vacuum concerning their potential respectively. Our Universe does not even remotely reach the unlimited potential as one manifestation of the Absolute.”

“There are two absolute potentials of the Absolute: Absolute potential for particular manifestations and absolute potential for infinity. No specific thing can be infinite, and no particular thing can be absolute. Nevertheless, any thing can possess absolute value within and serve the system. The absolute potential is not in its infinity but in its potential for infinity. Within the realm of the Absolute, if we exclude the material universe, there is no space and time, and our concepts of infinity or finitude are mostly related to our view of space-time relations.”

“If there is only one Universe, like ours, it is too small and does not allow for exercising the highest possible, absolute potential at a given moment. For the highest possible absolute potential, viewed through infinity, to be exercised, there must be not only an infinity of possible worlds (universes) at different points (times) but the highest possible number (in this case, quantity is the main quality) of worlds at the same time at any time. Suppose there is no highest possible number of worlds (not only in variations but structurally). Under such conditions, the highest possible potential at any given time would be impossible because the chance, the main source of a potential infinity, would be unable to function and exercise itself to the highest possible potential.”

“Chance is the source of potential infinity and the primary source of real meaning in the manifestation (Universe) of the Absolute. Regardless of the unlimited potential for variations in quantity and quality within one universe as we understand it, such a world would still be limited in its manifestation and meaning if it were not a part of the Omniverse.”

“If we calculated the possibility of a googolplex possible accidental universes (created somehow just of themselves) as ours is and divided it by the needed level of fine-tuning, we would find out that any imaginable number would not be enough to organize and sustain itself to the level of fine-tuning required for the Universe as ours is or any similar universe. In other words, its complexity, fine-tuning, or structure almost borders infinity. Any imaginable number of universes would not be enough to account for all possible variations needed for only one finely-tuned Universe.”

“How is this universe possible if infinite variations are needed? The whole meaning and beauty lie in the fact that it is possible and finely tuned. However, it can only be new in a new birth or rebirth to secure an infinite development and meaning of existence and life through chance—the source of infinity or endless potential. Otherwise, it would always be the same or a wholly programmed different universe without free will, but our Universe has free will. Chance itself is the source of infinity and the potential for variations.”

“• The absolute “number” of possibilities is the Absolute itself because it contains this potential. • The absolute “number” of possibilities is infinity itself. • The absolute “number” of possibilities is needed not for infinity but for any particular manifestation of the Absolute in the form such as the Universe. • Any such universe, or the manifestation of the Absolute, requires the absolute number of possibilities to exist meaningfully as a high complexity. • The absolute number of possibilities is absolute potential. • The potential of the Absolute is both infinite and eternal. • The absolute “number” is infinity. • Absolute “number” is numberless. • Infinity is nonexistent. It is zero. • Zero is a gateway. • Zero is the Wormhole from the Universal Mind to the “Material” World-Universe. • Possibilities are possible only when they are not zero. • Passage through the Zero is the birth of possibilities. • The present is an eternity. • The victory of the finite possibility over infinity is the birth of life and existence. • Victory over eternity (absolute time or space) is time's birth. • Victory over the infinite space of zero is the birth of space. • The Finitude of the Being makes infinity. • Infinity in itself is nothing. • Infinity of the Being is a never-ending process, never-ending life or existence.”

“The pursuit of truth (which must imply God, among other things) must lead to God if it exists. Nothing can be beyond the truth. If God is the ultimate principle, then this principle is the truth itself. The truth is independent and indifferent to the name or word we use to describe it, whether it be the Ultimate Source of Everything or God. If we look at God in this way, God equals the truth. But what spoils or may spoil our inquiry about God or truth, regardless of our sincerity, is not God or the truth itself but our distorted knowledge of both. (Also, the problem of language.)”

“The statement that either God is the ultimate cause of the Universe or that the Universe appeared from nothing contains falsity because there is a third modality, which is that the Universe may have created itself. But, if the Universe has created itself, it had existed before its creation. If it existed before, what would be the difference between this Being and God, or would it mean that this Being is something we traditionally have chosen to call God? If there was Something, the Being, before the world's creation, the Being was uncreated. This uncreated Being is traditionally called God. The uncreated Being is the source of all creation, with the help of emptiness or absolute void. In that case, the Universe itself would be the Self-Creator, its own God.”

“Nobody measured, and nobody will ever be able to precisely measure the “spot” from which the Big Bang started because it is a “spotless spot.” Everyone knows that this spot is infinitesimally tiny. We claim that this spot is the zero spot (immeasurable) of the ultimate essence on its way into existence. This spot is immeasurable because it is zero. This “spot” is the spotless spot of absolute density and zero size.”

“We consider only the Universal Mind as the one possessing the primary quality, the essence of Being, which quality is not detectable by senses or indirectly by any means except by imagination and metaphysical speculation or thoughts. This immaterial Being, or “mind” (Universal Source), possesses the power to create through recreation and emanation of itself into existence. The requirement and essential elements of reality (as we see and perceive it) in the Universe are matter or energy.”

“If we try to answer the questions relating to God, we will again be faced more with our inherited ideas about the Universe and God than with the reality and essence these terms should represent. Therefore, we should try to enrich and redefine these and many other terms we use. We, human beings, decided that the word (term, idea) God means, and should mean, something inherently different from the Universe. We also decided that the Universe means and should mean something different from God. But, if we, somewhat arbitrarily, determined not only the destiny of these terms and ideas but, based on them, our very conception and perception of what these ideas and terms are supposed to represent, one may ask how much closer these ideas and reasoning have brought us to the truth.”

“The statement that either God is the ultimate cause of the Universe or that the Universe appeared from nothing contains falsity because there is a third modality, which is that the Universe may have created itself. But, if the Universe has created itself, it had existed before its creation. If it existed before, what would be the difference between this Being and God, or would it mean that this Being is something we traditionally have chosen to call God?”

“If we would, hypothetically, explore the idea of the universe's contraction, the result would be similar to the black hole. Regardless of a much bigger mass of the whole Universe, as ours is, the absolute contraction would lead to the same point at which the black hole reaches maximum density. The point of maximum density is Zero, at which point the Big Bang happens (or the Universe disappears, which is less likely). In this sense, from the point of the result, expansion or contraction of the Universe would lead to almost the same result.”
