In this article I will try to treat the concept of Justice with the help of mathematics, geometry, physics and quantum physics. Maybe at the first glance this endeavor would seem irrelevant but not for me at least because this is my point of view over the whole universe and the existence, visible or invisible.
Pythagoreans considered the mathematics principles and proportions the basis of the regular motion of celestial bodies, living creatures and music rhythms which altogether make up the harmony of the universe having in their core, the number on what the order of everything depends, because numbers are immutable and eternal. Plato forbade anyone not familiar with geometry to enter into Academia.
In the world, the appearance of things is mostly heterogeneous and disparately beside each others which surprises us and we ask ourselves what is the relation between them. Sometimes the same incongruous things close together could lead us to deduce false conclusions and this is the ‘trick’ of the appearance which cheat us to judge according to it, a simple way to satisfy our ‘logical expectation’. Usually we neglect and ignore the true reason of this closeness of things which have a mathematics explanation, having their roots in universal geometry, trigonometry, algebraic equations and in quantum physics.
To understand the parallelism of various things in the world, we should consider their ‘raison d’être’ in Time. Things in space are necessarily related to ‘time’. Everything in the world and in universe is in motion and transformation during a time. The living bodies undergo transformations during their specific lifetime, depending on the species. In some insects the lifetime vary from 8, 10 to 12 hours, in some plants it reaches 300 years or more and in other animal species it can be 70 to 120 years. They all undergo transformations till the moment of putrefaction after death. The particles of the dead living bodies join the soil, the air or the water. Even then the particles are quantifiable on the atomic and subatomic levels
Given everything which exists is entrapped into ‘time-space’ dimension, even though in the sight of some philosophers, time and space are just an illusion, I put aside this philosophical point of view and continue the subject of this article which is related to exact sciences and the measurement of the ‘quantity’.
Most elements undergo transformation or mutation through time, for example in radium, carbon, uranium and lot of other elements and some of them become totally another element and so on. Now what is the relevancy of these statements to the mathematics? The only common thing between all of them is the ‘number’. Number is the essence of all elements and everything which exists in visible world or in subatomic and quantum world. These factors in universe are active and their activity follow a pattern and this pattern is a mathematical one.
For example the cup of coffee beside me on the table, can be in a virtual geometrical world, the angle of an astronomical triangle or a cube whose other angles reach the constellation of Andromeda or some unknown stars. So when we consider things and living bodies around us, we have better to suppose their geometrical ‘raison d’être’ in an astronomical level. Now consider that while I intend to take the cup of coffee, suddenly it fell down and broke. Was this a banal accident? Even accidents have their own reasons in cosmogony field. Because everything in the universe is in motion and activity, even though they appear in a state of inertia, it is possible that at the moment I wanted to take the cup, a sort of extensive activity or electromagnetic fields were working and released intensive energy from the virtual geometrical shape to what the cup pertained and caused the fall down and the break of the cup, or it was caused by the algebraic equations my thoughts of that moment pertained to, then even accidents happen following a mathematical pattern.
In biology we all know that the genetic codes determine the properties and qualifications of all living bodies, and they are in themselves some mathematical equations having their roots in very far past of the universe and the existence. In our daily life we are surrounded by family members, neighbors, friends, strangers in the streets and also the plants, the birds and domesticated animals. Suddenly at an unexpected moment we witness a car crash, in another corner someone fall down because a heart attack, at the same moment the dog of our neighbor dies and some of our family members and friends fall ill. Apparently all these events are not in correlation and in fact there is no logical link between them. Simply we can find their explanation in the mathematics, physics, cosmogony, astronomical geometry and so. They all have been located or took place in a single scenery but belonging to different logical fields.
At the first impression we call these simultaneous accidents and events ‘unjust’, because we loved our family members and friends and the dog of our neighbor. We consider the car crash and the dead strangers in the street ‘a disaster’ because we feel compassion toward them and this seems to us an ‘injustice’. As much as we gain a rational and scientific understanding of things, we can’t avoid the emotions we feel, we mourn for our losses and we become sad for the damages our loved ones suffer or the failures we experience. But if we take into consideration all the universal equations, the genetic codes, the astronomical geometry, the cosmological energies which were at work to establish an ‘order’, e.g. to complete the equations, to provide the solution of some equations started some millions years ago, and they appear today, now and at this very moment, then we will have another kind of insight of things and we will understand the perfect justice, because mathematics can’t lie.
Before the ‘birth’ of our modern sciences, the first civilizations or some lost civilizations used astronomy to explain everything, the numbers and the constellations were their sciences which could lead them in the navigation on seas and oceans or to help them for the orientation, so celestial bodies were of an absolute importance. It is said that mankind is a talker animal, I would prefer to say that mankind is superstitious animal. This statement is applicable even today not only to the lucid and logical persons but also to scientists of all sort and in all fields. Maybe superstitions are so necessary that we can’t live without them because it is a human characteristic and we need them consciously or unconsciously. So we shouldn’t be surprised if in the ancient civilizations, the use of astronomy and numbers was so common in all occasions. In the past in some cultures and civilizations they used astrolabe to consult the stars and celestial bodies for their ritual of all sort and in all fields, for the good or bad omen of this or that thing or of this or that living creature.
When we think, talk, decide and act, at the very moment of the speculation, we inject into the universe an equation with one or more unknowns. The equation I produce today may be solved 200 years later or just tomorrow and this is called Justice, because universe is a system on which an absolute immutable justice is reigning.
In some east Asian cultures and philosophies, specially among the meditative groups, the guru says that it is better for ourselves and the others to sit in a corner and to remain inactive, this may sound strange but it has a scientific explanation. When we talk or do this or that thing we send into the universe lot of chaotic thoughts which may disturb the order and the justice already established, this chaotic thoughts should find their equations and the result could be fatal for us or for the others. Not only in Asian philosophy but also among European philosophers we can find similar statements. For example in 16th century in France, Blaise Pascal, himself a mathematician, said in his ‘Pensees’ that all the evil produced by people is the result that they can’t remain alone, silent and inactive in a corner or in a room. Montaigne in his ‘Essais’ said that sometimes not doing something is as good as doing that. But a rational person could find these tips a sort of paradox because both men said and did things instead of the contrary and also one might ask why I am writing all of this if I know that keeping silence is better than talking. As for me I talk and do things to spend time, but as for those philosophers, that was their duty to transfer the knowledge to the posterity.
The ‘disasters’ I witness today is the completion of the equations started maybe thousands years ago. So if I consider all the mathematical, geometrical, astronomical, cosmological and quantum physics reasons of this or that event or of this and that disaster, I have reached a complete understanding of everything in the world and I would never be surprised by this or that thing which appears ‘unjust’ because the scientific explanations showed me that the universe is ruled by a Perfect Justice.
