Sorry for interrupting you, but as I know, the term “Oedipus complex” was firstly introduced by Sigmund Freud. What’s it relation to “Danaë’s” matrix algorithm activation?

And do you remember the myth about Oedipus?

Only generally.

Nevertheless, it’s very important what precisely do you know of it.

So, Delphi’s Oracle has predicted to Oedipus that he would kill his father and marry his own mother. And their children would be cursed by the gods and hated by the mankind. However hard Oedipus tried to avoid his destiny the prediction completely realized and Oedipus had a tragic end: as I can remember he blinded himself and his wife made a suicide.

There is more than one version of this myth, but all of them finish tragically. Why? – Because the main characters having proper names absorb all the attention in the myth, but the Oracle is unnamed – it’s just some Delphi’s Oracle that predicts futures events. Mr. Holmes, and are you able to distinguish the prediction and the programming of future?

I’ll try to answer with old Chinese aphorism, that sounds nearly so: “If we wouldn’t change our current direction we have a risk to reach the place of destination”.

Yes, this has some sense, – told Pfanfaltz after a pause, – but I have no answer for this question yet, and to find it let’s try to look through Oedipus’s story after the Oracle’s prediction of killing his father. To overcome the cruel fate Oedipus left Corinth and went to far lands, but he didn’t know that he had run from the stepparents and that the road that he had chosen led to Thebes where his real father Lai ruled. And to this Lai, as well as to Acrisius some time, the Oracle had predicted to be killed by, not a grandson, but by his son. And that’s why Lai had told to leave his little son in a wood to be eaten by wild animals.

It seems to be another variant, where a child had been thrown to the sea, but waters brought him on the shore where king of Sickon adopted him.

You are quite right and this variant shows the relation to Danaë’s myth very well, Mr. Holmes. Anyway Oedipus was miraculously saved and adopted, in the first variant, by childless king of Corinth – Polybus. On his way to Thebes after leaving his stepfather Oedipus killed a noble man in casual fight. It had been his real father Lai, so the first part of the Oracle’s prediction came to be.

Or the first part of program algorithm purposefully made by Oracle of Delphi.

May be, – answered the count and continued. – Having solved Sphinx’s riddle, Oedipus freed Thebes. Grateful people made him their king. The widow-queen Jocasta whom he had married to was his mother. His children were the same time his brothers and sisters. After twenty safe years of Oedipus’s rule it was a plague and a savage famine. The same Delphi’s Oracle had earlier predicted that the dearth would finish after Lai’s murderer would have been expatriated. Wishing to stop it Oedipus vigorously started to look for a criminal and having find the only survived Lai’s companions and got know that he himself was the murderer. Moreover, this eyewitness of the killing was at the same time that slave who had been told to leave Oedipus in the wood, but had felt sorry to baby and had given him to Corinthian herdsman, after what king Polybus adopted Oedipus. So Oedipus got know that Lai was his father, and that the prediction had come to life. Being mad of his deeds he blinded himself and Jocasta made a suicide.

As you can see, Mr. Holmes, the role of Oracle in this story is really mean, and it seems to be not a predictor, but a programmer.

Yes, count; the relationship between these two myths is quite obvious, and the connecting-link is certainly the activity of the Delphi’s Oracle. The only thing that we need to understand is what did it – programming or predicting of futures events.

To answer this question one should learn to distinguish a prognosis from a programming. It seems that this would be a keystone for solving the Russian riddles. And as to “Oedipus complex” (yearning to kill father and to come into sexual relations with mother), which if to believe Freud the majority of men unknowingly have a tendency to, just from our rude analysis it’s seen well, what the exaggeration made by one the first-rate authoritative psychologists is based on. From that point of view Freud looks like a pitiful adept of the unknown Oracle of Delphi. But now it is much more important not by whom, but how are catastrophic matrixes algorithms realized. If the world is unified and complete and everything in it is in cause-and-effect relationship, then analysing the consequences one can understand the causes. To rise on such a level of understanding we should get out the borders of the system forming its behaviour stereotypes. It’s impossible to understand the behaviour of “maniac” in the borders of culture we live in. Rembrandt’s “Danaë” is one of the best embodiments of the Danaë’s myth, and since “the matrix is everywhere” and its destructive algorithm is activated, “maniac” looks for and finds material components of the matrix in Rembrandt’s masterpiece. You, Mr. Holmes, know the following.

And you, count, want to say that maniac has blocked the execution of that matrix algorithm?

I guess, Mr. Holmes, that the matter was like this; and there are two proves. The first is that several restaurateurs and their families strangely died in car accidents. It can be interpreted as a showing of the alternative matrix-scenario algorithm realization. Unfortunately I can’t prove it by press essays. And though the Hermitage direction knows everything, they speak very unwillingly of anything of the kind. The second prove of blocking of the destructive algorithm is the appearance of the main symbol of the myth in “Arguments and facts” after eleven years; they said that it was a “casual” mistake of holiday picture montage. Something went wrong in matrix-scenario of destroying the country, proclaimed by West as “the Evil Empire”. And following my hypothesis the second attempt of activation the destructive algorithm after the eleven-year solar activity cycle took place. It seems to me that doings of that “madman” unconsciously resisted to the destructive Gorbachev’s activity, though many people consider both of them to be modern herostratuses. I understand that such a conclusion may seem crazy for the majority of those who had grown up in biblical culture, because the culture itself places bans on appreciating the stereotypes made by it. It means that one grown by such culture isn’t able to ask: is everything nice in his culture? Why there are so many people who behave as potential criminals? And how is the crime-committing algorithm realised in the frames of this culture? May be it is specially putted into unconscious psychical levels in such a way, that he trying to avoid the “predicted” evil would do an evil even worse? But so, making an analogy with myth of Oedipus, one can find the main author or “customer” of many crimes.

I agree, count, your conclusions are so new and unusual that I need a time to find a place for them in my world understanding. And I think that there is a sense in analysing the events of “black Tuesday” from these positions. May be we can find a treacherous “nobody”.

Do you mean the myth about Odysseus and Polyphemus?

Quite right, count. The United States look like that Cyclops with both two eyes been burned out, who in rage is looking for the treacherous “Nobody”1, touching modern “sheep”. Just today “the treacherous Nobody” is called Bin-Laden. And what does mean the appearance of that article of “Danaë’s” restoration in “Chas Pick” #151(880) by October 14, 1997 in the context of your theory?

It would be better if I translate some paragraphs of this article for you:

“Today’s world is full of cruelty and violence. In the end of 20th century more and more works of art become the victims of maniacs. Rembrandt is the leader in a field of such crimes. His paintings attract madmen with a peculiar force”.
