Sohrab Sepehri an Iranian poet says that "We are not here to find the secret of the rose، Maybe we are here to be fascinated by the magic of the rose". Also one of the things I should learn is to be fascinated by the magic of beautiful world but the thing that fills my mind is to find the secret of the world. Books that I’ve read recently tempt me again to begin my way to know the universe better.
"The Holographic Universe" is name of a book by Michael Talbot I’m reading now. This book discusses a theory about the universe and says that the universe is a hologram and so thinks of it (including us) as a whole. This book based on the theories of a quantum physicist David Bohm and a psychologist Karl Pribram. Also I think it's just a theory now but as the first connection between physics and metaphysics it could be a good start.
"Emotional intelligence" by Daniel Goleman is another interesting book for me. It contains new discoveries about brains emotional structure, our main type of emotions, and IQ vs. EQ and... . This book is totally scientific.
Information security and quantum computing is the field that I study as a part of my job network administration. as a consequence again I engaged with mathematics and physics concepts like linear algebra, probabilities and quantum physics after I graduated from university(I have MS in physics).
Another part of my daily reading consists of books in totally different area. Books from authors like Paulo Coelho who live in a totally different world than scientists, World of sophism and magic. Also I do not believe in these things yet but a different point of view always could open our eyes to reality. Another thing that I could learn from these people is "to be fascinated by the magic of the rose". Learn to live and feel the life.
This mess of information seems useless and non-related but my scientific sensation tells me that they become more and more integrated. For example when you compare descriptions of unconscious mind in these totally different points of views you could find many interesting facts about it.
Now after all in 30th year of life I think that I find my way in life. I want to "Decode the Mathematic Rules of the Universe".
I want to continue study information security and quantum security and use it to earn money and also use it to train my mathematic part of my mind.
Solving puzzles, playing puzzling games and trying to find general ways of solving well known puzzles like Sudoku is another way that I'm using to train my mind.
By the things I have learned from books and the experience gained from solving puzzles I continue my way step by step to solve the puzzle of the universe.

Live an everyday life
Today my friend spoke of some conceptual movies. I taught that I have not seen this kind of movies for a year despite that I like them so much. I have not read books that I like for 1 or 2 months. I don't have time for my harmonica class too. this is exactly an every day life isn't it? :) Me and my sweet Sheri :* is engaged in changing our house and this consume our time. we hope that after moving to new house we could do the things we like.
This is real life. we have a physical body and should provide food for it and protect it against hot and cold weather and diseases. And this needs most of our daily life. but it is good that nowadays you could choose one 'should do daily thing' (job I mean) instead of all of the thing surviving needs like making shelters, farming, hunting, gathering wood for fire and ... . It is good that people pay for science related researches and teaching philosophy, physics and literature.
"Feed my mind" is somehow meaning of life for me. I think that to enjoy the real life I should add "feed my body" to the meaning of life and enjoy both of them.
I should be careful in decisions of my life (where to live, next job i select and ...) to make balance and feed both my body and my mind.
I should sometimes have time to be in nature and listen to ambient music and free my mind to dream.

Charity
In my country Iran people believe that charity could protect them from bad incidents. You can see people that pay a little charity in the beginning of the day even if they were not so religious.
I’m not believed in charity in that way and I have my reasons. In science in scrutiny of phenomena that have many parameters, using statistics could be the best way.
Let’s take a look at the car accident phenomenon. Many people in Iran pay charity and sometimes say a prayer before they start a trip to protect themselves. In developed countries people believes that protecting against bad evidences acquired by standardize cars and roads and not breaking traffic rules. Both of them may believe in terrestrial and supernatural reasons but the main reason they believe is what I said.
Comparing number of people who killed in car accidents in developed non-religious countries with non-developed religious countries shows that supernatural reasons have no effect or minimal effect compare to the terrestrial reasons.
Germany: 80 million cars and 4500 killed in a year (and in other same countries like France)
Iran: 20 million cars and 23000 killed in a year (and in other same countries like India)
I believe that helping people that have financial problem could protect us from social problem that caused by poverty but not protect us from accident or diseases. It would be better to do this in a formal and organized way and by the goal of helping them to be independent after a while, but in every way it’s ok.
And after all my heart says that a delicious food is not delicious at all when you know someone in your vicinity is hungry.

Happiness instead of Death and Sorrow
Thursday night I was watching the FIFA world cup Kick-off celebration. In the beginning of celebration, one of the governments of South Africa had a speech and said that instead of the some news that says South Africa could not held the world cup properly, all projects finished and schedules were met in time. He said that the FIFA world cup event has long time advantages for South Africa.
In the while Camera was on the happy faces of South Africa people. They're eyes looking toward a bright future and they were happy and dancing with music.
But I was sad (although I was happy for them) Cause I was thinking of the Documentary that was about killing people in last year Iranian protest that I saw one hour earlier. I was thinking of last 30 years of my life full of Death and sorrow, killing of politician, the war against Iraq and the young Iranian people that were killed in war. No music, no beauty, no liberty. All I heard in TV was about Death, Killing, and bad NEWS around the world.
I'm looking toward the dark future with fear. I see our descent and the things we lost every day But happy people of South Africa reminds me that I should not lose hope.
