Review of Volume One

Question: You wrote that you realized that if you define yourself in any way, label who you are, then you close yourself off. That it’s better not to call yourself anything at all — only then do you become that zero, multifaceted. How do you feel about this today? Are you still just as undefined and still avoid labeling who you are?

Such an interesting intersection of time will happen again — the future, the past, and the present — at the moment when I answer all these questions. Because back then I thought completely differently. A year ago — completely differently. This summer — completely differently. And today — again differently. As of today, at this moment, right now... I would say this is probably the only common ground I share with all my readers. The only general characteristic of my readers, those who read my books, and of myself — is that we are undefined. That is, as grand as it may sound, it’s as if once someone defines themselves — they fade or disappear somewhere. But it’s like there are different worlds: the undefined and the defined. But under no circumstances should we confuse someone undefined with someone who is lost. Lost people belong to one sphere, one simulation of the system in which they live. Then there are people who are defined — that’s another system in which people live. And then there are people who are undefined — that’s a third category, and they are not “lost”; they are something else. Lost people are those who haven’t defined themselves, but at the same time it’s as if they are in hell, while there are those who haven’t defined themselves but are in heaven. That’s a very big difference. So it turns out that a “lost soul” is a person who lives... It’s really a frequency, a world where a huge number of people live, especially now, in the 21st century. These are people who neither hear God, nor nature, nor the system, but at the same time haven’t defined themselves in the socio-material world either — like some doctor or engineer, family-children, and everything seems scripted. It’s as if they don’t have even that, and this person ends up in such an environment, and there is this world of “lost souls,” and these are people who go to extremes — in the bad sense. It’s a world “without mind,” but a dark one.
