Zero & one What is the difference b/w zero and one?

When you begin to think about your response, most generally what fills your analysis of those two things would be called arithmetic. You would fall easily into thinking about those two things in terms of numbers. What I want you to do is set aside thinking about it in terms of numbers and arithmetic. Look at and imagine nothing. Complete emptiness. Zero. You can only imagine this because there is no way for us (using mental tools) to experience nothing. But take a moment and let your imagination completely fill you with the thought of nothing. Now make the difficult leap and stop thinking about nothing. Stop outside of the boundary of your imagination and touch the nothingness you are holding in your mind. You can't can you? But I hope you are getting a sense of what nothing could be. Now imagine just one thing. Complete and whole within itself. Not divisible into two things like atoms or subatomic particles. Just hold the idea of one thing in your mind. Let it be what ever size you want, but it is absolutely the only thing. There is absolutely nothing surrounding it. If you have your one thing surrounded by nothing, then indeed you are holding two things in your mind. Fill that nothing with just one thing. One thing with no boundaries. Just one. When I ask others to do this they become in touch with a profound sense of aloneness. A profound sadness. Now what I want you to do is leave that judgment. Don't hold any judgment about alone or sad. Just be with one object in your mind. I put forward this idea because we find the condition of not nothing. Then we move to looking at the condition of being many things or just one thing. I put forward the contemplation that space, matter and/or the subatomic realm are all just this one thing I refer to. There are no separate pieces except to the extent that we want to think we are separate, or there are other things. We (having the aspect of ego built into our nature) are plagued with building beliefs of otherness. And as we experience the oneness, we in error find ways to reinforce an otherness quality to things. We do this because our ego does not carry the insight to oneness. Only when we get away form our ego do we experience true oneness. Our minds have become so tightly bound to an ego universe that we can not believe it is not so. My efforts are not born from the desire to find connections so that I might escape aloneness. My efforts are at investigating the truth. Because I find I have this apparatus of illusion and have found suffering arises from perpetuating the illusions, I am compelled to investigate. I am compelled to examine and question. I am compelled to find ways to stop my illusions. Once I abide with the truth, I will take action with that knowledge. I abide with patience until more of I AM realized itself.
