Particle physics is the study of abstractions.

Particle physics is the study of abstractions. It is thus understandable why some particle physics- and accelerator laboratories turn their heavenly wings into abstract art galleries. But then there's the equally interesting realist movement and 'the Einselbst interpretation' which was founded on the premise that 'There is only Oneself and everything is an abstraction.' When it is said that Particle physics explores the universe at the smallest and largest scales, studying the fundamental particles and forces that govern our universe, it actually translates into the following. Oneself explores itself at the smallest and largest scales, in order to ultimately understand that there are no particles for the force that governs itself is itself. This approach, based on the school of ultimate reality, states that the microcosm and the macrocosm are not only One but Oneself. In other words; Oneself Turns Into Itself, i.e., Oneself Causes Itself. There is only Oneself perpetually turning into itself. Perhaps this is why Oneself has called itself the Universe?
