I already have expressed how I felt personnally in a previous post, and I have nothing to add to it. I was here not trying to judge subjectively, or to reflect on my own experience, but on the contrary, this was more of a philosophical exercise, a reflexion on the meaning of quantum void and perfection, or on the relation between zero and the infinite.

I don't mean to constantly come on this board and complain, rather I wanted to share something.

There are plain FACTS : "evolution" (material, spiritual, biological) require growth. Growth is painful. I'm not the one saying it, major religious and spiritual currents are.

And existence as we understand it requires motion, evolution, instability, dissymmetry. Again, I'm not the one saying it.

This void HAS been related to by the people concerned as "perfection". It is a transition state because people DESIRE that "something" be. In the same way, if you cease to "desire", you can stay in this perfection. That isthe very concept of Nirvana (which means nothingness), and which requires the surrender of every desire, but most importanly the denial of "love", an energy that surely sounds nice, but that in turns forces us into painful existences.

So I'll go against the wave here and venture to say what nobody, be they Christians, Muslims, Jews or New-Agers of all kinds, want to hear: the feeling of "love" IS really what works AGAINST us, for it forces us to be, it strands us appart from the perfect symmetry of nothingness, the only configuration that allows untroubled peace to exist.

People should seek to be rewarded by LESS love, not more. Love is really the "devil" everybody talks about: once you gave your spirit to love, it owns you for all eternity. Same goes for desire.
