Quote by Dejan Stojanovic

“Nothingness would cease to be nothing and become the opposite if nothingness were full. That is impossible (although nothing and something, on the metaphysical or symbolic level, can be the same if something is asleep).”

“The only way for interaction and mutual influence between nothing and something is through the activity of the One we have chosen to call Something. This Something “colors” nothingness with its own colors. This Something envelopes Nothingness. Regardless of how strange it sounds, Nothingness is never full, not even a bit. The Immaterial Being envelops the Nothingness in the form of a “material” Being, the Universe, yet all the happenings of the Something (the Being, Universe) are immaterial “forces” transformed from its primordial stage based on the principles of interaction between the primary, secondary and tertiary qualities.”

“The underlying reality is the illusion of space, energy, and matter. All we see is nothingness, untouched by the happening of the Being. Since nothingness cannot be curved, what we experience as the curvature of space is the curvature of the Being presented to us as energy and matter, yet immaterial. But, “immaterial substance” (Universal Mind), although immaterial, is still something. This something has the potential to appear as material in the modalities of transformation of the Universal Mind. That is the creative potential of the Universal Mind to secure its creation and, more importantly, the meaning stemming from the creative power of the Ultimate Source.”

“What we experience as Space is the most beautiful “illusion” filled with Nothingness. When we say Nothingness cannot be partially or fully full, we mean the opposite: only the Being may be full, not only partially but wholly full. The wholeness, fullness of the Being, comes from Nothingness. Without Nothing, Something is without the volume. Without volume, there is no “space.”

“Dimension, or something that has an extent, cannot be infinite like previously described nothingness. If this were possible, there would be two “infinities”—the infinity of the “Absolute” (God) and the Infinity of Nothingness. These two principles would not function in correlation and influence one another (servitude and dominance) as active and passive principles. As two absolute infinities, these principles would function as the active (or passive, with no difference) principle in both cases. Such a relationship would only lead to mutual annihilation, not coexistence and influence. These worlds would become so different that this absolute difference would merge and convert them into the same principle, regardless of how paradoxical this may sound. But this would be the death of both, and death is not possible in either case.”

“Since it is possible to imagine either one or the other concept theoretically, it is impossible to defend this “concept” even theoretically or as a hypothesis. Infinity is only a potential, not an actuality. The Being and Nothingness are “finite” as actualities and infinite as potential. Nothingness cannot have any potential per se, yet the Being cannot exercise its potential without the Nothingness with no potential. The lack of any potential of the One feeds the potential of the Other. The power of Nothingness is equally “forceful” as the power of the Being. Without Nothingness's “forceless” force, there would be no force of the Being or the possibility to exercise its power in creating the World (the Universe). Absolute passivity of Nonbeing is equally vital as the activity or dominance of the Being.”
