Comment: A “Doomsday Clock” was started in 1947 by the creators of the first atomic bomb. This clock shows how much time is left until midnight, which marks a nuclear cataclysm. This decision about the remaining time is made by a board consisting of 18 Nobel laureates.
Today, they say, there are ninety seconds left until midnight. According to their calculations they warn that we are approaching catastrophe and everyone needs to react. They assert that we are facing the most dangerous moment in modern history. They urge us to bear in mind that it could very well happen.
My Response: Yes.
Question: Why do we completely not care about these statements?
Answer: These statements are actually completely unimportant to us.
Question: So they gather there, they talk, they determine how long until midnight, and we do not care about it. Why? Why are we not afraid of this?
Answer: That is our nature.
Question: Will this always be your answer?
Answer: What else can be done? That is how I see it.
Comment: But I have children, grandchildren. I have my own life.
My Response: So what. Do you really want them to carry on this miserable life?
Comment: I do not want them to have a miserable life.
My Response: Suffering endlessly, from century to century.
Question: So will there be no Doomsday Clock ticking away in me, making me tremble and worry: “It is going to happen any moment now”?
Answer: No!
Comment: I am trying; I want to stop all of this!
My Response: If it ends, what difference does it make to them whether it happens today or in ten years?
Question: So all these calls to action mean nothing?
Answer: No.
Question: Then why do they call for action, sign treaties, gather at the UN and hold Security Council meetings? Why?
Answer: Someone has to do something and get paid for it. Nothing will change. This world will remain doomed.
Question: So what should we be doing then? If not stopping these wars, not working on peace in the world or anything else, what should we be doing?
Answer: Actually, the best thing would be if we all went to sleep. Really. If we invented a little pill: right now, at, say midnight, we all take the pill and wake up in 100 years.
What would happen during that time? The world would heal.
Comment: You saw what happened during the Covid period. Animals came into the cities, the environment improved. We were told that springs, lakes, and rivers were getting cleaner. The world would cleanse itself from our pollution.
My Response: Yes, that would be good.
Question: Not bad, of course. At least no one is killing anyone. But in reality? There will be no pill, we can’t sleep it away.
These people have found a goal for themselves—to warn the world about nuclear catastrophe. Others, on the contrary, are building nuclear bombs. Still others want to live peacefully, but are not allowed to. Ultimately, what should we all, as humans, come to?
Answer: We should come to the question: “What is the purpose of human life?” And, of course, not just to sleep through life and do nothing, but to get an answer to this question: “Why am I living?”
We all need to ask this question and receive an answer.
Question: Do you personally see your task in getting people to ask this question?
Answer: Yes.
Question: What answer will they come to if they ask the question?
Answer: Why I live.
Question: And why is that?
Answer: Why? That is for each person to understand: the purpose of their life.
Question: So this is the engine of life?
Answer: Yes, to push people toward the Creator. I believe there is no higher task than to rise to the level of the Creator.
Question: Will an ordinary person also come to this question?
Answer: Yes.
