There is such a genius in the world

I watched the movie "The One Who Knows No Limits" at night. I woke up in the middle of the night and couldn't fall asleep. The story of this 100-year-old Indian mathematics genius touched my feelings in some places. There are too many graduates from prestigious schools around me, and I often hear people discussing who is smart and talented. What kind of person can be called a genius, after reading this person’s story, everyone who thinks of a genius will shut up; Eastern and Western thinking, the opposition between the “inductive method” and the “deductive method” mentioned by Yang Zhenning, uses Indians and The British approach to mathematics logic is the best example. Fa Cai and I had a discussion about why mathematics cannot rely on "inspiration". In fact, it is discussing various ways of thinking and values ​​that cannot be said. He represents the atheistic British mathematician. Everything has to be demonstrated before it can be established. Anyone who has never seen it before or perceives it does not believe in its existence. I deeply understand the Indian Ramanujan, the truth of the world is often first perceived in an intuitive way, and then slowly demonstrated and understood. Intuition and inspiration come from faith. He said in the movie, "You don't believe in God, but you don't believe that God likes you." Ha, it makes sense. I don't have any attachments to when people should die, and I'm usually quite indifferent. A genius who died of illness at the age of 32 made me truly regretful for a long time. Most people, such as me, don't understand their mission in life for the rest of their lives, and they are still here to find themselves. Like him, he was born to understand math problems, but he also had ill-fated fate and ended up to no avail. Alas, as a hordes of sentient beings, sad for a genius in the middle of the night?
