VRMMO: Am I The Strongest Yet?

Chapter 252 Concepts

Imagine sitting with a wise sage in a serene temple courtyard.

"A concept is like the seed of a thought, the b?ja of one's original understanding. This is the mental form or idea that shapes our perception of reality."

Words of the wise and those who possessed an abundant streamer of knowledge… there were six sitting around them on this giant round table at the moment, and hearing even a simple word from their mouth was the same as hearing a Truth that was spoken through the words of a Divine Voice.

"Just like how a sculptor first envisions an image before carving it into stone, our minds first grasp a concept before understanding anything more deeply." One by one, all of them were observing the bronze coin that had brought chaos to this world countless times.

"According to the ancient runes inscribed here, particularly according to the teachings of Arumbika Shun or Balla, the world was perceived through the veil of Maya—illusion."

Concepts are born in our minds as we try to understand this illusion or the world, and as we peel each layer covering this primordial secret, we step closer to a realm yet unforeseen by any Limited mind.

"A concept is only a reflection of the truth, much like the moon's reflection on water. It helps us navigate the world of form, but beyond the concept is the pure essence, or Satya the true reality, which concepts can only point toward but never fully grasp."

The white sage was the second eldest among the people gathered here, with the proxy of Divinity of Eternal Damnation being the oldest living being present among them.

"Think of the mind as Akasha—space. Within it, concepts are like stars, guiding us through the vastness, helping us find a direction. Yet, as profound as these stars may be, they are just pointers to the infinite."

Truths were paths that one chooses on their own. Even in the unique cases where the Maintainers of these unique truths (Gaze) upon someone, they aren't looking at a random individual that they simply found unique, however at an individual that was coming very close to the Path that they maintain itself…

"A concept helps shape our understanding but is not the final truth. It's a tool to navigate both the mystical and the mundane realms, much like the teachings of the ancient Origins who believed that wisdom lies not only in knowledge but in transcending concepts to experience the ultimate reality."

When the bronze coin was passed through each hands present on this grand table, it was finally placed in the center of the giant table in the middle of a unique magic circle that was being created by the collective power of all the sages.

"Truth…"

In the ancient world forgotten under the perpetual flow of time, the very fabric of existence used to be woven from twelve primordial truths known as the [Pillars of Reality].

These truths shaped and governd all aspects of life, matter, and magic, forming the foundation upon which the world was standing to this day.

Prakriti, the force of cosmic order, ensured that all things follow their destined path, always making sure the freedom of any and all possibilities existed for each and every Element of this world.

Purusha, the essence of Individuality and consciousness, filled the world with purpose and meaning. Without it, the 'I' would not exist, and if the 'I' would not exist, the very 'World' that exists because of the wish and presence of 'I' would also cease to exist.

"This coin is something more unique from what we had expected…"

Asuddha, the principle of abundance granted a prolonged life even to the beings that never desired it, and Shuddha, the purity existing beyond physical and spiritual perfection, keeps the soul untarnished by corruption… guiding it towards a Certain end that all living beings are subjected to.

"Miss Olivia."

The laws of Nyaya dictate justice, restoring balance when the world falls into chaos, while Pralaya governs destruction and renewal, maintaining harmony through cycles of creation.

"We believe you have been subjected to something… very cruel."

Anaranbhah preserves equilibrium, stabilizing the forces of nature and spirit, giving the possibility of a 'beginningless' world that has existed without a beginning… something very abstract since as a world 'created' by someone else, this whole concept should have been faulty.

"Olive…" just like everyone else, Alex also looked at her friend with a complicated expression.

"That coin is a trigger." Elio shook his head as he, too, understood the underlying message behind this coin's presence in this place, at this time, with this particular person.

"Hmmm?"

She did not understand what they meant, but, as she could see, even her regular customer, the Queen, the person who enjoyed her goods dearly, had a complicated expression at this moment.

"Miss Olive, Vedas are the timeless notes that guide all beings towards wisdom. Smriti, the power of remembrance, keeps the past alive through the memories, allowing tradition and knowledge to be stored in the Akashic records.

And this coin, as even you could see right now, is connected to those Original records of all the happenings which have occurred since the furthest noticeable point in time."

Akasha, on the other hand, is the cosmic void which preserves the essence of all things.

Kaal of time, and Finally, Shunyata, the noble emptiness, holds infinite potential, representing the void from which creation arises and to which all must return to. Together, these concepts form the pillars that shape the land, the magic, and the destiny of all beings and all things.

[{( However, just like Olive, We know not many of you would understand all these complicated things. )}]

"I don't expect you to understand all of this on your own, Olive. But, just understand one thing…" Alex took away the coin from the center and threw it back towards Olive.

"You must keep it safe."

It wasn't simply a 'Coin'.

Soon… this item was going to be the trigger that decides that True fate of this world.

[Ding!]

However…

[Ding!]

[Ding!]

[Ding!]

[Ding!]

[Ding!]

None of them had thought the time for her to make the decision would come so, So soon.
