要想明白世界末日的东西,就要从数学开始。中国人的数学都很好。但是对于这一门本质上是哲学的起源科学,我们对他的认识早就已经被其精确的数术表象引入歧途了。数学的本质是什么呢?


人类一开始认识数学,是从数字开始的。先是地上摆几个石子,后来绳子上打几个结,来记录我们打了几只山羊,偷了几只野鸡。从认识以1为代表的自然数其实不算什么。但当认识到零,就是突破了。西方人认为零的概念比小数概念还晚。因为印度人在已经有了小数之后,突然一天醒来,觉得小数前面老空着不好,于是在那个位置上加了个小点。这就发明了零。所以,零是被人类发明的,不是被人类发现的。这个认识的突破,开启了人们对于自然认识的主动性的第一步。那个意义,起码比牛顿发现万有引力或者爱因斯坦发现相对论要大的多。


其实,象零这么个完全不可能被观测证实,只能凭空想像的概念,他存在的功能是帮助人们思维的方便,但是形式上却只能是一个空空的符号。印度人醒来的那一天,是公元前200多年的时候。这比中国人发现对于零的认识其实晚了200多年。只不过那位最早有零的概念的中国人不是数学工作者。而是哲学家。


“道生一,一生二,二生三,三生万物”。说这话的是时任东周史官的老子。老子所言的道,就是零的概念。但是他说的零,不是什么都没有的零,而是貌似什么都没有但却什么都可能有的零。老子是哲学上把零的概念定义为万物之本的。这就是简单的理解万物可以从无中生有的世界观。后世的哲学家们对老子有各种理解。我来说一个数学的解释。大家都知道倒数的规则,就是用1除以某个数,就得到其倒数。按照倒数的规则,我们必有一个做分子的1,这个1同时还表示一切1以内的正数,是个从零到1 的区间。这就可以通过求倒,得到任一个比1大的数字。把1以内的任何数字重复这个算法,就可以得到所有的正数。

老子并没有怎么花功夫解释从零到无穷大的宇宙世界观。他老人家忙着为大家说明白的道理都是无中生有的一个特例,物极必反。象曲则全,枉则直,洼则盈,敝则新,少则得,多则惑这些例子都好理解。然后忙着教给世人一些处世之法。至于“人法地,地法天,天法道,道法自然”的这一高度浓缩的方法论核心,老子最多就一句万物负阴而抱阳/冲气以为和带过而已。然后忙着去举例世事以为证征了。


道德经是一篇7000字的小文,能够概括的话只有上面引号的两句,其他的6900多字,要么是为了导出归纳的列举,要么是为了说明演绎的列举。想都读完也不费事。关于老子如何在道德经里纳道绎德的细节,我们可以不多说。但是一个有趣的现象,后世所有站在注释理解老子思想的立场上的哲学人都没有注意过。什么事情呢?


道生一,一生二,二生三,三生万物,这是个世界观。但是这个世界观的结语,只被老子用在了他演绎方法论的德经里面,具体是在德经第42章,仅此一处。而另一句高度总结的话,人法地,地法天,天法道,道法自然,本来是方法论,却只被用在讲世界观的道经第25章了。老子是思维糊涂了吗?肯定不是。那么为什么老子不要在世界观的道经里说出道生一,一生二,二生三,三生万物,也不要在讲方法论的德经中说出人法地,地法天,天法道,道法自然?要想清楚这个问题,我们还得说说苹果教主牛顿,科学阿甘爱因斯坦,虐猫爱好者薛定谔。
