The Nature-of-Time Series
Shall We Ever Know the Ultimate Truth About the Mystery of the Human Existence? (You Tube)

Einstein had expressed the ultimate doubt. Einstein: “The real nature of things… we shall never know, never.”

Marx had chosen poorly. Marx: “Religion is the opium of the masses.”

Nietzsche had failed miserably: Nietzsche: “God is dead.”

Stefan Radosavov Popovich, (1885—1967), a Montenegrin-Serb tribal historian in, The Spirit of Montenegro , Yugoslavia , 1962, unpublished.  Popovich had expressed his optimistic thought, ŕ la Job (Bible)-Leibniz (Best of All Possible Worlds)-Voltaire (Candide), on the Eve of the year, 1905, during his stay
in Buenos Aires, Argentina, (1904--1910).

 

 

The year, 1905, is Albert Einstein’s Miracle Year, when he had published 4-(5?) physics paper that triggered the ever growing revolution in physics research.

In the bush of the large, lion dwells with ease,
In the nations of the large, the nest of genius there is:
There is all there it’s needed to come true for his deed-of-glory dream
And the wreath of triumph is there for his head to immortalize him.

In Serbo-Croatian:

Iz grmena velikoga lafu izać trudno nije,
u velikim narodima geniju se gnj'jezdo vije:
ovde mu je pogotovu materijal k slavnom djelu
i trijumfa dični v'jenac, da mu krasi glavu smjelu.

The Mountain Wreath, 
(Originally published in Vienna, Austro-Hungarian Empire, 1847)

Petar II Petrovich Njegosh (1813—1851), the Prince-Bishop of Montenegro.

Translated, Edited, and Commented by V. Alexander Stefan ( Stefan University Press, La Jolla , California , 2008)

Here, Njegosh emphasizes the role of big (ethnicities) nations, wherein a number of geniuses, (lions), are regularly birthed, (the law of probability), whereas in the small nations, [such as the Serb (ethnicity) nation, Croat (ethnicity) nation, etc.], this is a less frequent occurrence.

Vladislav Alexander Stefan:
"When I was establishing Stefan University (1989), I had in mind the world-class university. If not the world-class university, I would have never embarked on the project. This is entirely in the hands of the future leaders of the Stefan University."
