Nothingness is the perception of the still undeveloped but maturing psychic consciousness of the separation that occurs between the original coherent experience of belonging and wholeness from which it arises, and reality as it is. This causes the early approach of the immature consciousness to assume that the content it expresses in itself is always that which it promotes in others. That is, if theirs is equally undeveloped and they succumb to it, constantly becoming what others are by identifying with it and not perceiving mental events as independent of them. Our consciousness have a naive understanding of what the mental consequence of this means, and that all our experiences are the same. Not that it is their psychic origins that we share, while the experiences that we have of the conditions that surround them are what are our own in a personal sense. The confusion that arises from our mental immaturity when our meditative self-observation is undeveloped is particularly evident in politics. The boundary between ourselves and others is non-existent. No one knows where they themselves end and others begin. Our self-observation is still childishly united with that of everyone else in our environment. We are not yet an individual in relation to ourselves, but mentally dependent on our environment for a content of something we can call a personality. We have not yet developed any truly inner experiential connection to our own person or to the fundamental psychic belonging it creates in a unique way in all of us. This consciousness then tries in various ways to induce the consciousness of all others to imitate the content that appears in its own consciousness, or to reject its content out of fear of losing contact with the original wholeness and the threatening psychic nothingness it appears as in itself, when a new perspective emerges at the same time as it then rejects the social reality that exists outside of what this means to us. It is in the contradictions that arise through this that we learn to distinguish between reality as it is, and the experience of psychic life in itself, regardless of our mental reflections or the ideas we may have about it. This is also where the function of our mental balance come in to play in the absolute foundation of our nature, and the self observation of our being and the absolute perspective it is to our mental actions that follows from it, as the fundamental states of existence and the meditative negotiation that their union creates within us. The world becomes exactly what it is, without our notions, ideas and conditioned opinions about it, as nothingness develops into a perspective that makes us, in silence and solitude, meditatively or in mental self-reflection, begin to observe what it is that arises within us. Which has the same original psychic sources as anyone else’s but whose mental states is something we experience in our own unique way. Nothingness is what gives us the first real inner perspective on what it is that is our part of the collective content that constitutes the psychic whole we once left behind and then spend our lifetimes seeking to return to as adults. Which is something we are called to do from time to time in the gaps that our distractions create and that arise in our daily lives throughout our lives as it seemingly out of nowhere breaks in to our consciousness and demands our attention. If we constantly reject what our psyche, the figures and mental phenomena we use to describe our interaction with it with, and wants to show us, the functions it wants us to be aware of, wither away. They atrophy biochemically due to inactivity and we eventually disappear into the emptiness they leave behind and we have had a fear of, and shyed away from all along.
