Chapter 21. Spirit Left
Conversation with the Mystic-Old-Man
Alexandr: Hello. I have a question: in ancient Greek mythology, there is a garden, the Garden of the Hesperides, and in this garden, apples grow. But are there eight, nine, or ten of these apples?
Mystic-Old-Man: Interestingly, logically, there should be eleven, but the eleventh is missing. That’s how it is.
Alexandr: Could it be that it simply forms as the eleventh from all the others?
Mystic-Old-Man: It’s possible if that link is missing.
Alexandr: Then another question. Are all these apples the same size or different?
Mystic-Old-Man: Different.
Alexandr: Am I correct in understanding that only two types of apples are visible, while the third one, which differs from these two, is missing? So, in essence, there are three different apples?
Mystic-Old-Man: That’s correct, yes. Yes, of course, yes.
Alexandr: And do they differ in size?
Mystic-Old-Man: In the properties of size. That’s probably the right way to put it. Because size carries properties. Well, yes, properties, essentially.
Alexandr: Okay. Another question. These apples that are inside the big apple – if we imagine them – are they all in the same plane? Or are some inside and some outside?
Mystic-Old-Man: That’s fascinating. Fascinating.
Alexandr: Alright. Then another question. How far have I progressed in this, in percentage terms, and how much is left for me to find these apples?
Mystic-Old-Man: 68%. And what’s amazing is that this results in an expression in a plane, and it turns out to be both horizontal and vertical. And this percentage, it...
Alexandr: What turns out to be horizontal and vertical?
Mystic-Old-Man: This is about direction. The difference between these apples manifests in the horizontal and vertical focus.
Alexandr: Okay. Another question. Am I correct in understanding that these apples are geometric shapes?
