THE BUAUAA.
We can only approach the concept of BUAUAA under assumptions that require a semantic instrumentation, and a logical basis, different from those typical of the thought of the various philosophical schools of EARTH. In a first linguistic interpretation, the phoneme BUAUAA, and the entity or ontological factor it tries to represent or encode, could be translated into a language of EARTH as: SOUL; SPIRIT; PSYCHE or VITAL ENGINE.
In reality the concept that in UMMO we label with that word has much more complex characteristics. It would not be simple to identify our idea of the BUAUAA with the ideal image of the SPIRIT that the theodicist thinkers of your Humanity, the Christian theologians and the scholastic psychologists have formed for themselves.
Doubtless many of the characters we assign to the BUAUAA coincide with the qualities that certain thinkers among you attribute to the Soul. In general terms we know that the “soul”, which we call BUAUAA, is adimensional, and therefore the factor or dimension TIME has no meaning for it. It is also indestructible and possesses the note of being GENERATED by WOA (GENERATOR OR GOD).
A conflict will surely arise with the ontologists of EARTH when we state that it cannot be ETERNAL, inasmuch as this concept automatically implies the temporal dimension; and the confusion will become even more evident for you if we assure you that, using our logic, which regards as NON-EXISTENT that in whose ontic framework the IBOZOO UU is not manifested (the essence of what is real, of what is dimensional and therefore verifiable by physical means), if we assure you, we repeat, that the BUAUAA DOES NOT EXIST.
For the animists of EARTH, the SOUL is created at the instant of the conception of a new human being. The Soul goes on shaping, with free will, the whole conduct of the man until his death. After that demise the soul goes on existing and is “remodelled” by the Creator, who judges it by virtue of the line of conduct freely chosen by it... (Forgive us for summarizing so narrowly a psycho-theological Doctrine that we know to be much more complex; but we are not trying to make any criticism of it, and besides, we assume you are well informed about your own philosophical conceptions in this regard.)
We shall therefore try to outline our own concepts for you.
In the first place, we distinguish between two classes of beings EXISTING in the UAANM (COSMOS), as opposed to two other great genera of “NON-EXISTENT BEINGS”. The latter are AIOYAA AMMEIEE UAA, such as WOAA (GENERATOR), BUAUAA (HUMAN SPIRIT), BUAWEE BEIAEII (COLLECTIVE SPIRIT) or BUAUAA BAAIOO (SPIRIT OF THE LIVING BEING), and AIOYAA AMEIEE OUEE (such as the content of a piece of information, the sensation of pleasure, or a popular tradition).
“EXISTING” BEINGS. Those entities whose essence is defined by IBOZOO UU, such as a rock, a virus, a star, or the flow of time, and which therefore allow an empirical path of analysis, we define as Existing. For us, the distance between two points or an interval of time has the same ontological nature as a crystal of antimony sulphide or a neuron. Moreover, we do not see in what way the concepts just listed could differ from one another, except as regards their complexity as a framework of IBOZOO UU, and the information content that such structures possess. Undoubtedly the distance between two solid stars is materialized by a NETWORK of IBOZOO UU. We do not conceive of the straight line as a purely mathematical abstraction without an IBOZOO UU substratum, for such an entelechy has no place in an UMMO gnoseology.
But an interval between two “instants” (we use the concept of instant here to make our exposition easier, for it has no reality among us) also possesses a structure of IBOZOO UU. We can even assure you that the distance between Stars already mentioned would be interpreted by beings of another dimensional frame as a mere passing of UIW (unit of time) measured on their chronoscope.
Distance and interval of time are examples of NETWORKS with the minimum possible state of information.
On the contrary: for an equal Number of IBOZOO UU involved, a volume of antimony sulphide possesses a complex structure that will imply a greater degree of information. You must already be aware that the distinction the mathematicians of Earth draw between CONTINUOUS MAGNITUDES AND CONCRETE OR DISCRETE MAGNITUDES is fallacious, since it is meaningless to attribute the character of continuous magnitude to distance, velocity, time...; the “quanta” of velocity, acceleration, length and so on possess their own personality in the universe of AIOYAA (EXISTING) beings.
The degree of informative complexity defines these beings. As your own biologist brothers of EARTH have rightly intuited, it is the VIRUSES (also known on Ummo), AIOYAA whose degree of complexity (defined by the quantity of INFORMATION contained per unit of volume and mass), that mark a threshold between living and non-living beings. We prefer to call the first (1) NEGATIVE ENTROPIC OR NEGENTROPIC and the second (2) POSIENTROPIC (AAIODII EXUEE and AAIODII YOOWAA respectively). For us a LIVING BEING is the SOCIO-IBOZOO NETWORK capable of enriching its INFORMATION content “relative to its mass”, structuring itself over the course of time with greater complexity. And why is this so? Simply because the IBOZOO UU that form the framework of TIME become positively incorporated into its previous structure, changing their axes and permuting themselves into discrete amounts of volume and mass.
(1) To living beings
(2) The non-living
For living beings, the passing of TIME means nothing other than a “conversion” of a NETWORK of IBOZOO UU potentially linked to them as the MAGNITUDE TIME, into MAGNITUDES such as GRAVITATIONAL FIELD, MAGNETIC FIELD, ELECTROSTATIC FIELD, LENGTH and MASS. Using a rough but didactic simile, you could translate this as saying that LIVING BEINGS “feed” on elapsed TIME, “digesting” it and transforming, by means of a curious metabolic mechanism, TIME into MASS and other “by-products”. We observe here a process of ADDITION. On the contrary, AAIODII IOWAA beings (inert beings, as you would say), such as some Argon molecules, an aerolite, or a beam of microwaves, are characterized by degrading their own complexity. This, which the Physicists of EARTH have already observed when they define the laws of Thermodynamics and formulate concepts such as ENTROPY (A) and THERMAL DEGRADATION of the UNIVERSE, has a somewhat different meaning for us. Non-living beings are characterized by the fact that their own NETWORK of IBOZOO UU undergoes a slow process of “rotation” of its “AXES”. Frameworks of IBOZOO UU that previously had the characteristics of mass degrade first into energy of increasing wavelength, and finally into TIME. According to this concept, the end of the UAAMM (COSMOS) would not be, as some human cosmologists of the Star EARTH presume, an “awe-inspiring ocean of thermal radiations”, but a disconcerting Universe where only TIME as a dimension would have its dwelling, without any living or inert being able to experience its flow, its “arrow”.
(A) Variation of heat with respect to temperature.
But this is not precisely the end that awaits our WAAAM, as we shall clarify for you on another occasion.
Before continuing: allow us, Mr. Juan, to propose to you a pedagogical model that will make the concepts set out so far more comprehensible. Naturally this example should not be taken too much as an image of reality, although it may help your brothers to retain such ideas in their memory.
Imagine an immense plain, or perhaps a gigantic table, over which millions of playing cards have been spread uniformly and symmetrically, face down. Deliberately, a player has laid out a long row of identical cards, perhaps the ACE of CLUBS, one of which has been placed face up. An observer flying a few decimetres above the immense gaming table in an imaginary helicopter would see nothing but a great surface covered with the colour of the backs of the cards, and, as the dominant note of colour, the ACE of CLUBS turned face up.
The cards represent the IBOZOO UU.
A hidden player under the table can make the pilot of the vehicle believe that the card “advances”, “runs” across the table. With a rod, and through holes in the table, he successively turns over all the ACES OF CLUBS that were on the board, laid out in a row, taking care to turn the previous ones face down.
If he is skilful and does it at dizzying speed, the observer will suffer the optical illusion that our reference card skates, slides, when in reality not a single one of the multicoloured cards has moved from its original position.
But he can carry his joke further still. Each time he turns up an ACE OF CLUBS he also turns over one adjacent card, two in the second operation, three in the next... so that the observing pilot sees the ACE OF CLUBS not only “slide”, but a whole polychromy of cards appear magically around it.
Perhaps the example would have been more fortunate had we replaced the cards by many-faced polyhedra, which would better represent some IBOZOO UU, but this model would then have lost expository simplicity.
Why do some beings, VIRUSES, PROTOZOA, PLANTS, MEN..., enrich their informative complexity at the expense of TIME itself, while inanimate beings, such as a steel bar, a cloud of ammonia vapour or a Galaxy, reduce their informative content (although at a much slower rate)? The explanation is none other than BUAUAA, as we shall inform you in another letter, Mr. Juan Domínguez Montes.
