It is easy for the incarnate being, bound by proportions, measures, and equations, even to strictly physical and material definitions, to understand the stars, to understand the physical body it uses, to understand even a minuscule part of the mechanistic nature of the Infinite.
However, it is extremely difficult for them to grasp the unusual.
Thus, the difficulty of the nothing.
Modern scientists, groping in the dark—and this is more than a figure of speech—today understand the greater significance of dark matter; they understand this dark matter teeming throughout the Universe, but it escapes their capacity for comprehension and measurement. It is unusual!
They attempt, in every way, to decode it through extremely peculiar astrophysical equations, which are difficult for the layperson to interact with. However, they are indeed understanding its effects; its existence, yet it remains something intangible. The same occurs with the void within, this void outside.
The so-called black matter they speak of seems dense, and since it is matter, it would be "subject to laboratory verification"; however, it is nothing more than the thought of the Divine.
We gravitate in this nothing.
It gives us form, allows us interactions, cohabits with us pari passu on our infinite journey. And, most likely, we will never truly know it because the nothing of God belongs to God.
The Creator keeps this mental emanation within Himself. But, marvel: as co-creators, through processes—still rudimentary, such as meditation, insulation within oneself. And I say rudimentary because there are others that humanity itself will come to know, but today we have these tools. We are able, not to create a nothing within us, but to immerse ourselves in the Divine nothing.
The greatest difference of this nothing, being everything, is this deep immersion. And we can do this for a singular reason: we are His creatures.
Thus, we carry within us the germ of manipulating this nothing. Today, much more than yesterday, individuals encounter barriers and difficulties in entering this Divine void because the natural concreteness of incarnate thought throws them, unquestioningly, into the dictatorships made by flesh, by matter, by space, and by time.
For those who do not understand, the nothing is merely a void.
However, in this nothing, all these questions and barriers disappear, relationships vanish—although they exist; the importance disappears and loses context—although it remains there.
The incarnate individual, in an unmeasured effort, reaching this nothing, can, indeed, for a brief moment, bring that sensation within themselves.
And then, the world is no longer the world. Time disappears, circumstances vanish.
But, see the unusual: all these still cohabit. Who changed? What is, truly, the great alteration of this relationship? The alteration in the individual! Intransferable, impossible to apply to another as a learning experience, and even if we tried to describe it, we would inevitably bump into the nothing.
What am I? In the current view, I am Spirit. But, in truth, I am the nothing.
I am this nothing that contains everything.
And thus, notice the difficulty of the individual, still incarnate, fully, if they have not seized the concept "I am Spirit."
This one still says "my Spirit," and although this is not just a way of speaking, it is a way of believing that he possesses a Spirit, when in reality, he is a Spirit.
If this step, measurable, possible for immediate interaction between Spirits and souls, is so difficult, the next step is equally so: I am the nothing.
And even being the nothing, now, communicating through a restricted physical body, I can see what is happening on the Sun, for example; I perfectly understand the interactions of asteroids, I see them, and I walk alongside them in the cosmos because I am the nothing, and the nothing, in our context, is the nothing of Creation: the Everything.
When we reach this level of consciousness and want to know something, for example, if there is life in Andromeda? Okay, let's go! Simple, direct, and easy because we gravitate in this matter, called dark, the nothing.
And in it, time and space do not exist. Just think and I am already experiencing; including, strange circumstances, as they still allow us interactions with planet Earth. We have had the opportunity to witness an individual who, as a scientist of the stars, aimed his telescope at space and, in an extremely simplistic manner, found a new star, a new planet, or a new constellation.
He is not seeing what he perceives—it is important to understand this to start dismantling the concepts of matter; this individual is perceiving a photonic pulse thrown into space; the very light is seen by him in the reflection of those bodies.
If they are three, four, or five thousand light-years away, that has already happened, it no longer exists, and he still believes it to be there, makes calculations, understanding their orbits, their interactions, and sometimes he stumbles—like many have stumbled—into doubts such as: "How can a comet pass by there without changing its orbit and not change it?"
It does not change because there is no longer the gravity of that body; after all, it has already vanished.
I know, through experimentation, the trajectory of that comet, through the vision of many, many years; therefore, it is important to know: that body seen in the telescope no longer exists. And, for this reason, it has nothing to collide with, there is no gravity to change its course, and the end of the equation is a question mark, an unknown.
Thus, when we reach the nothing, we will be in everything.
And more than that: in the cry of a child in Africa, in the despair of an elderly person in Europe, in the immigrant being cast out and mistreated in North America, living concurrently with me and in me because the nothing encompasses all of this.
If it encompasses Andromeda, why not the beings here?
Our walk towards this unusual is precisely to deconstruct, through phrases, through chapters, through a simple book, the secular construction of the human mind taking root in physical matter.
We will find purpose in those who already feel free to think. For the others, we will be a fanciful book, but even so, we will be there waiting for their moment.
