Princess Atex and her mysterious mirrors

Abstract: The main purpose of the article to interpret some texts of «Khazar dictionary» by Milorad Pavich. The uniqueness and attractiveness of these texts is that the events described in them already contain certain interpretations, which gives, though, the possibility of further interpretation. Accordingly, alternative story-and-event structures were applied, containing the same extent of their own interpretation. As a result of reading the khazar text along with other event descriptions of the same structure, simultaneously applying elements of existential analytics, the text itself provides apparently its own interpretation. The main line of research, in one way or another, touches the problems of time and through it investigates questions of the meaning of life, the inevitability of death. The horizon of consideration is already specified by the analysed text, which points to three forms of time. However, these forms are not habitual for us: past, present and future, but I. Time fast, swift, lightning-fast; II. Time is slow, stretched, III. The time of everyday life. The third form of time as a result of a complex relationship between the first and the second, counts the days of human life, invariably bringing the second blink of an eye – the death. But in the control of man to delay the onset of this moment by mastering certain consciousness energies associated with creativity and creativeness. Depending on the degree of the given mastery the first and second form of time or creativity transition of the person in the new dimension of a life (variety and uniqueness, superfluity and unity of all), or call the second blink of an eye (death) and as consequence not returning the debt of one mirror to another.
