immortal gene

 immortal gene


​


The most common form of natural selection implies the differential survival of each entity. Some survive and some die. Another condition must be met for this selective death to have a powerful impact on the world. The condition is that each entity must exist in the form of numerous copies and that at least some of that entity must be able to survive a significant period of evolutionary time. Small genetic units satisfy this condition, but individuals, populations and species do not.


​


Genes are no longer indivisible, but they are rarely split. Genes are either definitely present in an individual's body or not present at all. Also, genes do not mix with other genes and travel through intermediate generations as they are.


If genes were constantly intermingled, natural selection would not have happened.


​

Another aspect of genetic particle nature is that it does not age. Just because a gene lives a million years doesn't mean it dies as easily as a gene that's lived a hundred years or so. Genes manipulate the body at will and are passed from body to body through generations as the body is destined to die senescence or abandon it before it dies.



Genes are immortal. It is defined as a genetic unit that fits the term immortal. As individual survival machines in this world, humans can live for decades. However, the life expectancy of genes in the world must be measured in units of 1 million years, not 10 years.


In a species that reproduces sexually, an individual is a genetic unit that is too large and short-lived to be an important unit of natural selection. Furthermore, a group of individuals is a much larger unit. Genetically speaking, individuals and groups are like clouds in the sky or sandstorms in the desert. They are a temporary assembly or association. From an evolutionary point of view, it is utterly unstable. Populations can persist for a long time, but as they constantly mix with other populations, they lose their identity. Populations also undergo evolution internally. A population is not independent enough to be a unit of natural selection. It is not stable enough to be selected for preference over other populations, nor is it difficult to see as a unit.


An individual's body appears to be sufficiently independent as long as it is maintained. However, when there is only one copy of an entity, evolution cannot occur through selection between entities. Sexual reproduction is not self-replication.


The object is not stable. Jeongcheop is a floating existence. Chromosomes also shuffle and disappear like a hand of cards. However, the shuffled card itself survives. This card is the gene. The gene is not destroyed by crossing over, just changing partners and continuing the march. That is the job of genes.


Genes are self-replicators and humans are their survival machines. When we fulfil our mission as survival machines, we are discarded. However, genes live in geological time and are eternal.


Genes are like diamonds, but they are different from diamonds. Diamond crystals continue to exist in a certain arrangement pattern of atoms. DNA molecules do not have such permanence. Any physical DNA molecule has a very short life. Obviously shorter than one lifetime. But theoretically, a DNA molecule could survive 100 million years in its copy form. Also, copies of certain genes, such as self-replicators, can spread throughout the world.


Characteristics of units that succeed in natural selection: longevity, fertility, and cloning.


Instead of using the word 'gene', it seems to make sense even if you read it with the word 'writing'.


The resonant writings of great writers, transcending time and space and awakening the human spirit, become immortal souls.

Being able to do anything, or quitting, is freedom.

 Being able to do anything, or quitting, is freedom. ​ Get your hands off the hanging cliff. Enlightened people say I had to get my hands off the hanging cliff. I can't believe it's a story from Buddhism, which emphasizes mercy and love. Doubts can be easily dispelled. A 'hanging cliff' is actually just an object of obsession, believing that it will die if it is released even though there is no problem. The 'hanging cliff' is different for each person. It could be youth, health, family, money, home, or children. Or it could be love, it could be friendship, it could be the approval of others.   It is clear that the person who cannot lift his hand from the cliff is not free, he is not the master of his own life. Whatever it is, if it is impossible to live without it, and if it is likely that he will die, he is already a slave to the cliff on which he hangs. If you let go, you will die, but why should you let go? For the freedom to pursue new possibilities in life....

alchemist. The alchemy of life, fulfilling the myth of the self.

 alchemist. The alchemy of life, fulfilling the myth of the self. There are three classes of alchemists. A person who only imitates the language of alchemy without understanding it, Someone who understands but is finally frustrated to know that the language of alchemy is to be followed with the heart and not the head, A person who has never heard of alchemy, but has already become an alchemist by living the life of obtaining the secret of alchemy and discovering the 'philosopher's stone' in his life... ​ Failed alchemists just want to turn lead into gold. He was obsessed with the myth of the self and its treasure, but did not try to live the myth himself. ​ There is only one way to learn, to learn through action. God created this world so that the teachings and wonderful wisdom of the soul can be realized through the visible, and he calls it 'action'. Everything behind the earth gives enlightenment. If you look into even a single grain of sand with love, you can dis...

君子上達 小人下達

Learning flows from the bottom up to the high. ​ A gentleman faces upwards and a small man faces downwards. (君子上達 小人下達) .. - Analects ​ It means that a gentleman goes through high-level studies and disciplines to rectify himself and create a better world, but a small man concentrates on fulfilling his own interests and greed. In addition, <Heonmun> contains words that tell how to do it. That's 'Hahak Sangdal'. It means that no matter how high ideals and dignified life are pursued, daily learning must be a prerequisite. ​ ​ Education must first teach the near and small, and then the far and great. If you do not go through the process of solidifying the basics properly in order to achieve quick results and teach high-level things first, you will collapse at some point, like building a castle on sand. However, if you stop at something close and small, you will not be able to make progress in your studies. The beginning of learning is small and close, but the end of learn...
