I Am a Dreamer and a Thinker
With the sensation of touch we feel that everything is whole. But that isn't what science tells us. Science in this instance agrees with ancient philosophy. Which so often is the case.
Science tells us that an atom is mostly empty space. There are protons and neutrons in the center and electrons whizzing around them. But there is just empty space between the electron and the nucleus of the atom.
They have also noticed that between these atoms is more empty space. So they calculated that the human body is 99.9999% empty space.
So why do we feel solid?
The universe is merely the afterimage of moving atoms. Of course their bonds to one another.
Also they say that the Universe's mathematical value is zero. Zero is a paradoxical number. In one sense it is void because it means the absence of everything. But the zero is also a whole. containing all within itself.
The void is not the void that people think it is. It may contain no physical matter, but it contains the image of everything in it's complete form. It and it's opposite have become one and whole, and perfect. And perfection cannot be put into form, perfection can only be formless.
The formless thing that most obviously affects us, is of course the wind. Cannot be seen, but it can be felt.
Things that are whole become paradoxical. The wind is whole because it is formless. the whole being the perfected form, but perfection is stillness. Maybe the wind is still within itself as it blows around.
Thinking these thoughts is what helps my mind break free of the chains of everyday society. Keep thinking outside the box and don't let anyone or anything trap you in that box. Don't be afraid to think something even if it means your wrong. This isn't about being right, it's about inner peace.
