Life is Real, Don’t Make it Complex: A

Life is real, don’t make it complex: A Mathematical Approachtc "Life is real, don’t make it complex\:                               A Mathematical Approach"

Abstract:  In this article, we explain why life is considered as complex by comparing with the complex number a+ib.

The present day life is considered as complex, not because Nature gives complex life as but because we (i) make the real life as complex. For example, we can compare this with complex number a+ib, where  a and b are real numbers.  Further, a is called the real part, b is called the imaginary part and i = Ö-1. This number a+ib is complex because of ‘i’ present in it, otherwise it is sum of two real numbers, a and b, which is a real number.

Now let us discuss how to make this complex number (Complex life) as real number (real life). This can be explained in the following easy ways:

1. If we remove i (I ness from us, that is the ego from us) then the number (or life) becomes real.
2. Instead of living in the present, that is in reality, we think most of the time about either the past or the future, that is, we are always in the imaginary world. This makes our life complex.  Now by allowing that the imaginary part tends to zero (b ® 0) we can make the complex life (complex number ) as real.

3. We think all the time about ourselves forgetting the absolute (God) that is why life is complex.  If we are in the remembrance of God then life is real.  It is like taking absolute value of a complex number is real, that is |a+ib| = Ö a2 + b2, which is a real number.

4. Finally, if we find the root (origin) of positive things then we get real.  But if we try to find the root of negative things we get complex (Ö-x=ix).  So in our life if we have any negative things (characters) then there is no need to find the root of it, just remove it so that life becomes real.
