The opposite of 3 is not zero; it is 1/3.
My thought would be -3 with the sum being 0. I am curious, how do you justify 1/3?
I justify it by using "1," instead of "0," as the fulcrum of existence.
Why "1"? It is the interaction-point of the dimention of an individual intellect ("person") and the other dimentions (3 of space, one of time, one of scale). An integer "x" would therein have an opposite, 1/x.
This is connected to the notion that "existence" cannot have any other form except the following:
Anything that can exist, does.
Time, as a dimention, simply distinguishes the potention from the actual; but as observations have demonstrated, they are the same thing. Existence is therefore singular (i.e. "1")

Understanding exists (and so, in what dimention?) In other words, your understanding of the universe is an inverse (yet valid and useful) function of reality.

There is another similar image inside of me.

What do you mean by this?
By this I mean that our personal measures of intelligence are a reflection of the intelligence of the operations of the universe. But, instead of expanding in total material effect as distance, time, and scale, increases (x/1) as the intelligence of the universe does, your personal intellect will reduce effect in an inverse way (1/x). Correspondingly, your visual reference reduces size of objects inversely according to distance.
But in the dimention of "person," only pure units exist, and these pure units are never diminished in size or observed effects with distance, time, or scale. These units are the carriers of meaning (ie. whiteness, roundness, tableness, all components of the universe that can be named). These units cannot exist in partial form, they either exist in their fullness, or they dissapear. Since they are necessarily connected to the same universe, of which each individual intellect is a reflection, they will be the same in you as in me.
