故事 The Story
2011 CE can be fondly called the beginning of 杨丕源 Yang Piyuan's spiritual journey. Even though he had always been fascinated with the history of China since he read the novel ROOTS, he began to put his findings in a more systematic manner. He started spending his time on developing his 五千年的历史在线 5000 Years of History Online, in particular, and his website, in general. This year saw the Large Hadron Collider in CERN (Switzerland) was run with with the goal of significantly increasing data collection.
Being interested in KNOWLEDGE as a whole, he let his mind wander in the 粒子加速器 particle accelerators and in 中国神话 Chinese Mythology. He imagined that a global large particle accelerator had malfunctioned and he was caught in the warp of time and ended up at the beginning of time, a time when Heaven and Earth were one. It was a time of 混沌 CHAOS and of 黑漆漆的 DARKNESS. He let his mind run wild between the 漆黑的宇宙 DARK UNIVERSE and the 量子宇宙 QUANTUM UNIVERSE.
He visualised the awakening of 盘古 Pangu, a giant who was sound asleep in the 黑漆漆的 DARKNESS.
