The story of our time and the universe of truth

Time is a fourth dimension in addition to the length, width, and height of our world’s usual spatial perceptions, although most people may not realize its ubiquity. It makes our square existence transcend the monotonous two-dimensional plane, and even transcend the three-dimensional sense of the cube, and achieve the refractive multi-facetedness of the hypercube and the hypercube. Understanding the tesseract, then, is key to understanding our story and deciding the way forward.Today, when information is plentiful but insight is not, the truth is often obscured. Only a detailed chronology of time—our era—can reveal the complex contours of the hypercube, the geometry of truth beyond what has been readily accepted throughout the ages, or even as the only reality. Time provides the critical context that tracks and marks every change and therefore determines different perceptions of truth.Even before the concept of time existed, humans have been pursuing truth. However, in addition to past, present and even future, there is a fourth axis of “possibility”. It has always been there but was not perceived until people were awakened by its prescient power. Going beyond the three axes and entering the fourth axis of reflection, the Cosmic Cube, has become an imperative in our age of conflicting and dizzying truths that defy reason and bewilder the mind.The tesseract is complicated, but not complicated. As a metaphor for our space-time continuum, it’s clear and profound, liberating and illuminating, and yes, utterly mind-bending and exciting in its vividness. Today, as “Cube: The Geometry of Truth” opens at the National Center for the Performing Arts (NCPA) in Mumbai, please embark on a journey through the stories of our time and listen to the clarion call “Let Truth Conquer”.
