To Infinity And Beyond

Aishvarya Venkatasubramaniam

To everyone who believes that infinity is just a limit, hug

yourself now. Because, infinity is countable. Would you

believe that? Let me the clear the air first. You must

believe because, in the phrase “ To infinity And Beyond”, if

there is something really beyond infinity, then infinity is not

at all a limit. On the other hand, it is so depressing when

we come to know that we learned math theories and

formulae with infinity being uncountable, and the fact that

it goes on and on. With this perspective, we had solved

sums and memorized proofs and theorems in our school

days. But logically, how could infinity become a limit? Like,

we really can find the answer if we have patience to solve

anything. Basically everything.


I don’t intend to tell anything that is exaggerating the

circumstances here and there is no hype. And adding to it,

as I said, if there is something beyond infinity, then infinity

is surely not a limit. Now this is a burning question. We

have been tuned to accept so. Mathematically, infinity is

reachable, the only thing is, we have to keep solving more

and more steps to reach the point infinity. And we know, it

is tedious to do, the process is so hard, hence we


standardize infinity to be an infinity which really is not so.

Wait. Have we ever reached infinity? Then how and why

do we judge and make assumptions?


Apart maths, this applies to our lives as well. Because, it

might feel nothing is impossible at times, and that’s a

general psychology. The truth is nothing seems impossible

until we complete it which means anything is possible in

this universe if we have the fire within to finish and

accomplish it. In fact, I would say infinity is a zero. What if

infinity is not an end but only a start that would lead us to

another point? By that, we would come up with a lot more

theories which would beautifully stumble the universe.

Dimensionally, it is like cutting and analyzing the faces of

a cube. Imagine infinity as parts and not as a whole. As

we segregate them into parts, we tend to join them

whereas when we consider it to be a whole, we assume

that something already is done, something already is in its

position, so we might think that there is no need to alter

and modify it.


“Perspective” is important and it triggers deep thinking and

ultimately, creativity is the output. Now imagine, in fact, the

symbol of infinity itself says that, it is a zero when we cut

them into pieces (imagine its symbol) implying to tell us


that its only a zero and there is a great and long way to go

beyond. So prove them wrong. Prove that all the infinite

theories are infinitely wrong. Show them that real infinity is

beyond the existing so called infinity. Let it pave ways for

new theories to come.


“ To infinity and Beyond” – In the pursuit of

reaching the sky because we all are badly grounded on

earth.
