'N-Series' is a space for discussing ideas and thoughts which may/may not have a profound impact on shaping the way human beings think and live. The impact is secondary; what is primary is the need to talk and shape individual understanding by thinking over the ideas shared in a collective dialog. After all, a dialog is something different from two monologues. This is not religion, except in the sense of writing and understanding and the truth as being worthy of reverence. This is not spirituality; the exercise is not a key to living one's life, it is rather about understanding the essence of living. This is not philosophy (except probably in the root - Gr. phil - love, sophia- wisdom); this writer is sure she cannot talk ontology and epistemology and quote Hume and Plato and Russell. This is not science per se; no rigorous scientific method is adopted in the discussions. This is, however, almost science, for if there is a 'purpose' behind the creation of this blog, it is nothing less and nothing more than the need to understand which forms the backbone of science.

Then what is this? I believe that this is nothing but madness, and it is nothing but the method perceived in the madness that actually ends up making sense to us.

It is a journey, a random, but purposeful walk into the high mountains of abstractions and ideas; an alternate reality that not many conceptualize and still fewer realize. Not sure what lies at the end of the journey, not sure if the journey has an end, but if you feel a resonance with what I've been rambling so far, please feel free to join us.

One word of caution: you are alone. Journeymen on this perilous path should not seek companionship; real understanding cannot be spoon fed. Don't ask to be fed, if you do, you have no business being here. Don't try spoon feeding, nobody's interested in your version of the facts.
