The Mystery of Hatred
Why?
In my deepest and most intense ruminations of the mystery of hatred, I have felt a great sadness. I realize this is only at one step of our journey, but it is not the end-all-and-be-all (I admit this only in name, not in my truth). If anyone begins to believe the truth that everything is derived from perfect good, then there can be no hatred at all. In other words, it is a pretext of some kind that even our most sophisticated senses cannot truly fathom. How can this be? If someone curses me, hits me, kills me, or spits on me, how can we not call this hate?
I was trained to study arguably the most fundamental and most important particle in the universe: the photon. In my studies, I learned the meaning of the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle in which the momentum or position of any elementary particle (e.g., a photon) cannot be determined with any more certainty than at minimum h/4π. So many physical experiments have been done to corroborate this relationship that has lead to mysterious concepts such as quantum entanglement, wave-particle duality, and quantum probability. In other words, reality has a glitch in its fundamental meaningfulness by this Uncertainty Principle. Albeit this uncertainly is at the quantum level, its truth is absolute and therefore applies to all aspects of reality.
In fact, I was taught no electrons could ever “touch” one other. Think about that for a moment. Electrons are the outer sphere of all atoms and molecules. They could never enter into one another. Therefore, there is a kind of independence of all material particles in nature. The notion that such a truth is in place at our level is therefore worth a few moments of thought. If we accept Uncertainty and the lack of particle interpenetration, perhaps the notions of hatred at its most basic level is moot? In other words, like most of the universe (dark matter and dark energy), our understandings of the phenomena we think we know are illusory and without truth.
Yet, we feel and experience hatred, don’t we? How can this be in a world of perfect good? It is said in the most ancient wisdom of the mystery of everything that the “arm of the Lord is not short.” In other words, we cannot impugn the perfection we are taught if we believe in an essential goodness that seeded the entirety of the Universe. If the arm of the Lord is not short, than the feelings and experience of hatred point to something else. Whatever that is, is the greatest journey we can experience. Let’s believe in one another because what I know without equivocation is there is only the goodness. I write with conviction because I cannot fathom any sense otherwise. If, for example, we choose to believe in religions, the only alternative is “hell,” or punishment. Yet, if such a construct is real, how can we justify the perfection? Are there two standards?
Science teaches the unity of everything as articulated in a Higgs-Boson particle and a Big Bang singularity. In such a material world, we would logically deduce in a unity pointing to a primordial perfection rooted in goodness. How can we think otherwise if we wish to find rationality?
