We Deceive Ourselves

"In all chaos there is a cosmos, in all disorder a secret order".
Carl Jung
So true; I call it anomaly of matter. Thus Laws of Nature in our cosmos allow light as a wave and as particle. In Newtonian model while studying dynamics of a ball we have precise equation to study its velocity and position at any given time. But in quantum mechanics it is not possible. The more accurate velocity is, its position can only be guessed. Vice versa. There is an uncertainty. All these contradictions or anomalies are smoothened out while we think of cosmos as a whole.

In Alice in Wonderland there is the Cheshire cat disappearing except for its grin. The grin must explain anomaly of matter. Its body must be elsewhere thereby validating its being. It is not dead because it can grin. Merely because Alice can’t see its body doesn’t mean it is non-existent. It is Alice’s problem.
Fortean anomalies as a whole, is strictly our problem since we cannot get our mind off from reason for a moment. So we build theories that get curioser and curioser. UFO ? Alien abduction? There is no end to the way we indulge in our fantasies.(Fantasies are alright as long as they serve to sharpen our focus on realities)

A star dies in a blaze of light and dies. We see it still millions of light years later. Do we speak of it as paranormal? Do we identify it as UFO? No. There is something queer in the way we swallow what is truly marvelous ( as tsunami of starlight breaking on our time and place) as we accept Lewis Carrol’s story as a delightful story for children.
These anomalies are integrated in truth of nature.( cf:anomaly of matter)
