i disagree.
imagine there was nothing. nothing at all. is the opposite of nothing something? once you have something, there is no longer nothing.
alasdair
but you use your mind for imaginating the nothing
if you believe the universe can exist outside of your mind its a belief
so i would turn around the "is the opposite of nothing something?"
to is the opposite of something nothing ?
cuz nothing is always a concept we entertain in our mind, it cant exist outside of it
and yes nothing is what we define as the opposite of something
duality : you cant have something without its opposite
its like writing reality with a black pen on white paper, you can conscientize something that way
but not if you use black on black or white on white
there is no longer nothing.
nothing is a concept, it cant exist otherwise, nothing cant exist in itself, cuz the way for nothing to exist it by non existence
so all it is is a concept we entertain as being the opposite of something
something is that felt presence of the now
but due to memory we can compare the quantity\quality of said presence and say there was more of something here and less of something there...
we scale it but zero is a concept
time stop at zero
its the absence of the concept so it aint the nothing
the nothing is the concept we entertain in our something mind
"the tao that can be told is not the eternal tao"
if you could have the ability to conscientize the nothing perfectly you would loose yourself in it, youd be gone
is the opposite of nothing something?
thats how we define it yeah
just like the opposite of darkness is light
(did i repeated the same thing too much)
