The Universe is made of cheese.
Ok, so maybe not. But there are alot of nooks and crannies, voids and solid places, like the wedge of swiss that Jerry Mouse always dreamt of. Grew up on Ben 10? Sorry, you missed it.
Holy cheese, Batman! What if the Universe is a wedge of swiss cheese? Where are you? In the wedge or a big void? Do you have any idea how to find out? If not, don’t bother trying to get around. You think London cabbies get you where you need to go by sheer luck?
It would seem that way sometimes. But stepping out without a map can get you lost quickly. Floating around in a void, it is easy to dream that you are eating the cheese – only to wake up munching your pillow. Or worse. Have a cat? Whoops.
Ah, of course. You remember who said that the first thing that every initiate needs to construct is their own model of the cheese, a cheese-mology all their own. You were there that day, right? Shit, I marked you absent. Ok, let’s go over it again.
How does the Big Cheese work? What is its nature? Its structure? How does it form? You remember that It forms, rather than has form. Good. Maybe you were present that day. There is hope for all of Us.
How long does it take? Well, a model of the Universe is like a christmas tree. Every ornament, every present has its place, right? And you know the place because you know where things hang on the tree. Menorah? Well, you still have the Tree in your tradition, don’t you. And it ain’t a Festivus pole, that’s for sure.
When you know where things hang, and everything you receive has a place, then you have a map. But as they say, the map is not the territory. Be prepared for future software updates.
