    About this ebook

    Generating Effluence is the passport to an incomparable journey of self-discovery. This book explores the meaning of Everything, Nothing, and our relation to both. In it, Dr. Popache charts a course of knowledge that encompasses the quantum quirks of subatomic particles and the very nature of God.
    The totally illogical concept of a Field of All Possibilities is scorched by the good doctor’s reason and bulldozed by his application of real science. Popache’s arguments interspersed and supported by the wisdom of Bleen, pave over that burnt and decrepit field with the smooth and level Playground of Ordered Possibilities (PoOP). The action of every particle and wave in the Universe is directed and disciplined by the PoOP’s strict rules. And so are we.
    When we accept that the concept of free will is a sham, that we cannot buck the Universe’s design for our lives, that we cannot become something other than what we already are, we are truly freed.
    Using the alphabet as a mnemonic and guide, the most sublime intellect of our age lays out the method for us all to participate in the bounty of Everything by the simple act of becoming Nothing. The transcendent but easily accessible advice within these pages is the key to joy, personal satisfaction, and immeasurable prosperity. Unbridled Affluence will follow after we remove Everything that blocks our Effluence. Then, like this book, our lives will overflow with pure Effluent.
    Our eminent guide challenges us to stand up, shake off the negative energy of our egos, and accept a Universe that, on a good day, is pathologically chaotic.
    Hark! The whistle blows!
    We embark now.
    Hop aboard. Purchase this book and the future is yours. Place this book back on the shelf and you may regret it tomorrow when the Universe sneaks up and smacks you upside the head.

    As a professional scientist, I have my name assigned to thirteen patents and over fifty published scientific papers but have never been published in any popular medium including the "Letters to the Editor" section of a local newspaper. Welcome to the Galaxy is my first foray into science fiction. Originally from Wisconsin, I spent thirteen years in southern California. I now live in New Hampshire with my wife, son, dog (not named Quane) and four vintage Honda motorcycles.

      Generating Effluence - M. D. Tabat

      To all who have given up on Everything,

      embrace Nothing,

      and have become One with the Universe.

      Infancy, our natural state, was overflowing with Effluent and bounded by limitedness and want. We need simply to divest ourselves of Everything to once again reclaim our birthright to Nothing.

      FOREWORD

      The history of religion is replete with charlatans, messiahs, false prophets, and snake oil peddlers who dazzle the naïve masses by spouting nonsense with authority. The more ridiculous their phony claims, the louder and more exaggerated they become. Their pontifications fall like manna from heaven over enthusiastic mobs clamoring for spiritual sustenance in their dismal lives.

      These metaphysical swindlers, despite the many academic abbreviations before or after their names, do not preach selflessly, but selfishly. Their intent is never to enlighten and release the disciple from the nest of a narrow, parochial worldview—as a parent bird drives its fledglings out to test their intellectual wings in a forest of manmade dangers and distractions—but to expand the nest to encompass ever more wing-clipped acolytes chirping for another wormy piece of nonnutritive, semi-intellectual gruel.

      The answers to life’s Questions are never presented with finality. The finish line is always moving and out of reach, just one more pronouncement away. Enlightenment is a process, a path one must continuously follow. And, of course, the deceitful guru is the only one who can illuminate the dark and mysterious path…as long as the student buys the next book or attends the next seminar—you don’t want to trip over a missed step.

      It is rare, indeed, that the infinitesimal tick of one’s short life should coincide with the tock of a true sensei. My life, and this book, is the proof of that providential coincidence. I have had the incomparable honor and distinction to accompany the preeminent Dr. Popache on his travels for six glorious months. I was blessed with the singular assignment to faithfully record and publish the great man’s teachings. What follows is the only authorized document recounting his speeches to the masses and his personal musings during our one-on-one conversations.

      Dr. Popache is not one of the rabble of false teachers elbowing to be first among the lot. In fact, he prefers to be the lesser of all and lead from behind. He refuses accolades, abhors the spotlight of publicity, and rejects becoming another social-media sensation. He prefers that his words are shared personally—eye to eye instead of electronically, i.e., pixel to pixel.

      His confidence in his message—rather than the number of his social media followers or the size of his bank accounts—has endeared all, including myself, to his company. I never once heard him raise his voice in all our time together.

      While I recorded for posterity the genius’s teachings in the pages to come, I feel it my responsibility to relate my personal impressions and illuminations from my time bathing in the warm glow of The One Who Will Never Be Equaled in Spirit or Intellect.

      At first, I was one of the skeptical: Popache is just another fraud, I thought. A deceiver disguised in holy cloth, a fiendish wolf hiding fangs behind a delicate turn of phrase. But slowly, by his gentle touch (which I shamefully admit I first recoiled from) and from his nonjudgmental gaze, the once sturdy, protective walls I had built around my heart and mind—my bulwark against the modern world, constructed from the clay of suspicion, cynicism, and bigotry—slowly began to melt and dissolve under the warm, forgiving rain of his philosophy.

      The doctor is a simple, nondescript man of average height
