Both some-thing and no-thing can be illustrated mathematically as below: - Some-thing = 1, 2, 3, 1+2, 2+3, 3x2, 3/4, 5/7, 2/2, 0-1, 1-0, 5-5, 0-0, etc. No-thing = -1+1, 2-2, +3-3, etc...the ultimate result is always 0 (zero). The principle in effect: - 1. In no-thing, there is some-thing; in some-thing, there is no-thing. 2. Yin and yang are merely two sides of the same coin, just like crest and trough in a wavelength. 3. Energy and matter are merely two aspects of the same thing. 4. As such, no-thing and some-thing are merely two aspects of the same thing. 5. Zero is absence and absence is no-thing. Absence means a perfect state of balance in something a.k.a. the no-thing in the some-thing. -

Everything has its own vibrational frequency – our thoughts, our feelings, the rock, the table, the car, the animal, the plant, the tree, etc. Even colours are merely expressions of certain vibrational frequencies. This means both the perceiver and the perceived must fall within the ambit of vibrational frequency. In the realm of duality or multiplicity, the mind consciousness is known as the perceiver, whereas, the object or matter is known as the perceived. It is the perceiver’s mind as a non-physical faculty integrating with the five physical faculties namely, eyes, ears, nose, tongue and body that provides the observation and the interpretation, thus the arising of the conditional phenomena. Phenomenon is thing that appears to or is perceived by senses. In other words, phenomenon is thing that appears to or is perceived by the mind senses. When there is a mind arising, the phenomenon would arise. In other words, everything that exists is empty because there is no essence to anything and nothing has ever existed in its own quality – nothing is permanent and unchanging. All objects exist conditionally without an eternal essence. They only exist in relation to each other as appearances that in turn vary as per the perceptions of the beholders. The saying goes, when this arising, that arises; when this ceasing, that ceases. -

For a person who believes in the existence of God as creator and ruler of the world or universe, every existence in the cosmos would rise and fall within the kingdom of God per se. This means all beings or things are the essential constituents of God and therefore, as humans, we can also be known as namesake gods. Likewise.. If you were born in the kingdom of Britain, you'd be named as a British. If you were born in the kingdom of Spain, you'd be named as a Spanish. If you were born in the kingdom of France, you'd be named as a French. -

An i-phone is.... ...a smartphone for communication, as per the mind of 21st century man. ...a useless hard object, as per the mind of stone-age cave man. ...a gigantic solid object, as per the mind of an ant. At the end of the day, mind is the forerunner of all states. Can one be absolutely sure that an i-phone is only about a smart device per se? An i-phone is a created truth by the mind. It's the same for all things within the realms of existence. Form and formlessness are created truths; it is merely a distinction being performed by the mind - the end result is dependent on the respective perspectives of perceiver. Absolute truth is not a created truth. It is referred as the deepest fact about things. It doesn't fall within the realms of existence. -

@Ingit Don't worry much. You are what you are. You'll not disappear into thin air all in a sudden. You'd still have a future in waiting. Enlightenment is all about a paradigm shift on one's conventional perception. Literally, it doesn't disrupt the equation of Mother Nature at all. You exist merely because of the elements of consciousness, so for all other matters or objects. Our mind consciousness has a tendency for outward looking. If you do care to reverse it, then you'd be able to glimpse into the other side of innate perspectives. What you perceive at ground zero would yield a different result all together if compared with placing yourself at the top of a high mountain. At the end of the day, you just need a paradigm shift of thoughts from identification to observation. But be careful that our mind consciousness has a fetish for putting labels on all things....segregate and discriminate continuously. -

Emptiness is a necessary prerequisite for any objects to exist; without it, the object would be impossible. Basically, emptiness corresponds to two distinct scenarios: 1. It corresponds to the inherent existence (due to unchanging nature) that all conventional phenomena lack. 2. It corresponds to the dependent arising (a conditional phenomenon) i.e. subject to the same lack of inherent existence as every other object or phenomenon. This is referred to as the emptiness of emptiness. In Buddhism, there are two types of meditation - one is samatha and the other is vipassanā meditation. Samatha meditation is to calm or tranquil the mind by means of concentration. Whereas, vipassanā meditation is to mould the mind into seeing all things as they really are – an insight into the true nature of reality. The main focus of vipassanā meditation is to attain pure awareness via mindfulness. Vipassanā is often preceded by samatha but nonetheless, both types are inter-dependable throughout the practices in order to achieve favourable results in meditation. Microscopic analysis of things (Samatha) If one were to zoom in the analysis of a solid ball by gazing into its core contents i.e. atoms, one could realise that the ultimate result would yield to the absence of things (no unchanging elements). At the end of the day, one could declare that form is empty in a real sense because there is no core essence within it except for the elements of energy that evolve constantly under the influence of the external conditions. In other words, one could mention that the form entity has a delusive nature i.e. it is an appearance, though not illusive, but devoid of inherent existence and constantly varies under the influence of conditional phenomena. Macroscopic analysis of things (Vipassanā) If one were to zoom out the analysis of a solid ball by receding into a long shot distance indefinitely, the solid ball would appear to be shrinking into a tiniest size and one could realise that the ultimate result would yield to the absence of things (no things). In other words, the broader the perspective that one engages in, the lesser the multiplicity of things would appear to be. For example, the viewing of the earth from far and near would yield a different result to the observer’s perception altogether. Emptiness <-- Micro-perspective (multiplicity & definite) <-- MIND --> Macro-perspective (uniformity & infinite) --> Emptiness As a conclusion, the emptiness of phenomena is both the cause and consequence of the dependent nature of phenomena. It is the inherent quality of existence and is considered the ultimate truth because it inherently exists exactly as it is perceived when it is perceived directly by an enlightened mind. However, we shall not confuse emptiness with nothingness. Emptiness cannot be meant as nothingness. While we say that form is emptiness, there are still basic elements enfolding it. Just like when we do declare a vessel as empty, it does not literally mean nothing inside the vessel – there could still be air, radiation, dust, viruses, etc. that cannot be discerned by our naked eyes. At the end of the day, we could declare that form is empty in a real sense because there is no core essence within it except for the basic elements that orientate and evolve constantly under the influence of the external conditions. What our naked eyes view as form is actually the matter that is also known as concerted, aggregated or concentrated or wrapped energy. Since we can’t see energy with our naked eyes, we would say that the innermost of form is empty rather than nothing. -

Form is emptiness, emptiness is form. The cause of form is emptiness, the end result of form is also emptiness. Form will rise from emptiness, form will fall into emptiness. -

There are two facets of Mother Nature - the dependent and the inherent aspects. These two aspects would exist concurrently and can be illustrated in a mathematical equation as below: - [FACET 1] … (-2+2) + (-16+16) + (-22+22) + (-133+133) + (0) + (-54+54) …, etc = 0 [FACET 2] Key: - FACET 1 = dependent arising. = the existence of mind - that conjures up perceptions, conceptions, labels, names, descriptions, shapes, values, languages, etc. = the existence of rising and falling phenomena. = the existence of beginning and ending processes. = all subjects and objects are created i.e. inherent existence is devoid. = the emptiness could be realised in various stages. FACET 2 = inherent existence. = the absence of mind to conjure up perceptions, conceptions, labels, names, descriptions, shapes, values, languages, etc. = the absence of beginning and ending processes. = the absence of conditional phenomena. = nothing has ever been created or changed. = the Buddha nature. Zero (0) = intermediation = absence = emptiness but not nothingness, = a mathematical value intermediate between positive and negative values. = the absence of any or all units under consideration. ...(-2+2) + ... + (-133+133) ... = values of fluxes that are dependent arising. ... + (-2+2) + (-54+54) + ... = this arising, that arises. ... + (0) + ... = this ceasing, that ceases = a stage of enlightenment. = all dependent arising are completely blown-off or extinguished. = a stage of perfect intermediation = a stage of absence = a complete realisation of emptiness. ( .... ) = the law of kamma = the universal law of balancing. -2+2 or -133+133 = the law of attraction. From the above mathematical equation, one could summarise the conclusions as below: - 1. Mother Nature is a system of constant with a factor of intermediation or absence. It means that nature would orientate toward a state of balance, intermediation or absence at all times. 2. When things run off-balance or when one stirs up in the nature - be it in volitional or non-volitional sense, the natural law that maintains equilibrium would take its course to balance it in one way or another across time and the planes of existence. 3. Anything that inherently exists would not involve change and created objects cannot inherently exist since that would involve change. 4. The dependent nature is similar to the inherent nature. An absence of any or all units under consideration is not equivalent to nothingness of any or all units under consideration. A perfect intermediation would mean a comprehensive absence of any or all units under consideration. It is also known as a complete neutralisation of conditional phenomena. The two facets of Mother Nature would always exist because it is universal and does not take sides; it merely maintains the equilibrium in accordance with a system that runs on perpetuity. And every existence (sentient, non-sentient, or any material things) consists of energy and matter that would orientate toward a harmoniously balanced condition that is in accordance with the universal laws of nature. In other words, all things or matters would only exist in perpetual conditions when there is a balanced circumstance. This is because when there is a balanced circumstance, there is a chance for aggregation i.e. under a balanced phenomenon, one could witness shapes or forms arising; under an imbalanced phenomenon, one could witness no shapes or forms arising and the cycle of conditional phenomena continues repeatedly. In other words, balance does not mean a devoid of duality or multiplicity, just like emptiness does not amount to nothingness. One clear example that can exemplify the dependent nature would be the orientation of a compass – an instrument used to indicate directions. The needle of a compass is magnetised and would always point toward magnetic north under any varying circumstances. Moreover, the dependent nature of phenomena is a necessary prerequisite for energy or matter to exist; without it, the energy or matter would be impossible. In the material Universe, the elements of energy become the main source for the something that arises as in object; rather than the general perception of nothingness. Everything in the material Universe is made up of energy. Atoms and molecules are made up of energy. Our bodies, our clothes, our cars, our houses are all made up of energy but what makes them different is their vibration. Energy is always vibrating at a different frequency under the influence of conditional phenomena. Everything has its own vibrational frequency – our thoughts, our feelings, the rock, the table, the car, the animal, the plant, the tree, etc. Even colours are merely expressions of certain vibrational frequencies. These scenarios are guided by a system of universal law known as the law of vibration. In fact, the law of vibration serves as a foundation for the law of attraction. The law of attraction states that we attract what we are sending out i.e. like attracts like, unlike repels unlike. Hence, favourable energies attract favourable energies and unfavourable energies attract unfavourable energies. Human thoughts are cosmic waves of energy that penetrate all time and space and it is the most potent vibration that can attracts what is desired or wished for. In other words, all sentient beings are electro-magnetic beings with the subtle mind consciousness that acts as an antenna or a radar detector constantly attracting and magnetising vibrational frequencies. Human thoughts are frequencies to which other similar frequencies are constantly resonating. This resonance is the basis for a universal law – the law of attraction. At the end of the day, the material Universe is merely a momentary appearance conjured up from a continuum of orientating energy and matter in space under the influence of conditional phenomena. Just like ice, water and steam are different appearances deriving from the orientation of H2O properties under the influence of the external conditions. In other words, it is the orientation of H2O properties that has taken place to conjure up the momentary outcome of it. The dependent nature is also an inherent existence whereby it is unchanging when viewed externally, uncaused, indestructible and eternal. This can be depicted in the repeating cycle of birth, life, death and re-birth in Mother Nature. -

Everything does exist concurrently under now spacetime only. ‘Now you see it, now you don’t’ – that is an observation by mind consciousness for the so-called becoming process in the dependent nature. The projectile movement of time as often experienced by our mind consciousness is purely due to relativity that is arising out of the varying vibrational frequencies. As a result, we tend to perceive things a little bit linearly, thus creating the delusion of past, present and future movement of time. The conventional time that we involve ourselves with every day is a subjective-cum-relative time. This means the time orientation is dependent on the observer i.e. the subject’s mind consciousness to provide the valuation on the other side of the object or matter. As a consequence, the time conclusion varies among different observers or minds. Just like the gravity effects on earth for all different masses are the same (acceleration value, g = 9.80 m/s2) even though the rock strikes the ground before the feather per se. However, the common pace of now spacetime is unconjecturable and it is mainly due to emptiness i.e. its inherent nature of beginning-less and end-less. For example, despite the vast differences in the cultural development, the time zone and the locality, a Bushman in Africa and a modern businessman in America are both living concurrently in the 21st century under a common pace of now spacetime. Literally, we could not discriminate or differentiate them by saying that the Bushman is from the past time and the modern businessman is a person living in the future time. The distinguishing factor among them and their respective surroundings is merely their variable vibrational frequencies. In the dependent nature, the mind consciousness is known as the perceiver, whereas, the object or matter is known as the perceived. It is the perceiver’s mind as a non-physical faculty integrating with the five physical faculties namely, eyes, ears, nose, tongue and body that provides the observation and the interpretation, thus the arising of the conditional phenomena. If the vibrational frequencies of the perceiver are lower than the perceived, the cascading events are deemed impossible. In other words, the object’s frequency span must transpire within the purview of the subject’s frequency horizon; without it, the observation would be impossible. Moreover, the fluctuating vibrational frequencies of all things are just in every corner of now spacetime. Therefore, one does not need to look up or look down or anywhere in searching for the past memories, the different planes of existence, etc. because it could appear right next to a tweak of frequencies, just like how one tweaks on the radio or television channels. And a wormhole as the linkage between different paradigms is embedded just within the innate mind consciousness per se. Once again, time would always arise at the present state of condition and the navigation of the future into any intended directions should begin right here, right now. Future reality is nothing but a victorious expression of vibrational frequency competitions in Mother Nature. Frequency is described as the rate at which something occurs or is repeated over a particular period of time. This means the onus of sustaining the future reality lies on the party who asserts it i.e. the respective traits of consciousness. Just like a competition of seed sowing and growing whereby any gardener that becomes the first person to turn the seed from dormancy into a living thing would win the race. In other words, future reality is all about endless possibilities and it is dependent on the present state of condition all the time. In short, the past condition is nothing but memories or bygones and the future condition is nothing but chances-cum-endless possibilities. The remaining present condition is something that one could do just right by steering the future destiny into the anticipated courses. -

The mind-stream is referring to the stream of consciousness. So to understand our mind, we need to understand our consciousness. Basically, there are three terms of consciousness: - 1. Prevailing Consciousness (conscious mind) 2. Subtle Consciousness (subconscious mind) 3. Stilled Consciousness (enlightened mind) Prevailing Consciousness It is regarded as a working consciousness or a mind-in-command i.e. the kind of mind that can lead, take charge, concentrate, make decision and convey action. In other words, it is a prevailing conscious mind that makes judgments and plans. Basically, the prevailing mind consciousness is closely related to the physical body or more specifically, the brain. This means there would be a biological clock being attached within it i.e. there would be duration for staying awake and for resting. Without the brain, there would be no prevailing mind consciousness in existence. Therefore, brain is a necessary prerequisite for any prevailing mind consciousness to exist; without it, the prevailing mind consciousness would be impossible. Subtle consciousness As a human, the traits of consciousness are not within the physical body per se. Instead, it is the physical body that is within the traits of consciousness with the mind functioning as the forerunner of all things. Subtle mind consciousness is somehow independent from the physical body. This is because when the physical body is being switch-off temporarily the subtle mind consciousness would continue to work unpretentiously as in the experience of lucid dreaming. And all objects or matters as observed by the mind consciousness must transpire within the purview of the group traits of consciousness. This includes all the projections and reflections of reality or fallacy being identified and experienced by the respective mind consciousnesses. In fact, the group traits of consciousness would perform like a powerful microscope and telescope whereby nothing can be discerned outside its horizon. Moreover, the human physical body is merely an interim containment of certain blueprint of vibrational frequencies. Basically, humans are the end result of a certain unique frequential pattern of consciousness – a wave of collated high and low vibrations that subsequently bring forth a conflation of mind and body. The synergy of subtle mind consciousness could pervade and transpire into infinite spacetime and across different planes of existence. In fact, both our mind and body are varying vibrational frequencies that turn up as decoders for the projected traits of consciousness. The fluctuating vibrational frequencies of all things are just in every corner of spacetime. Stilled Consciousness A stilled mind is a balanced consciousness that is in a state of equanimity. It is luminous and highly commanding and even sharper than a sword that can pierce through the time stream, space and planes of existence. It is also known as a higher mind with the prevailing mind consciousness liberating from the thoughts churned out by the subtle mind consciousness. This liberation from thought identification to thought observation is called the experience of so-called enlightenment. It is crucial for one to develop the innate mind consciousness via expanding the frequency span to an uppermost level all the time while sustaining in the human realm. This is because the stilled mind consciousness has higher vibrational frequencies than the conventional mind consciousness and it has a vast potentiality or capability of projecting the future destiny of individuals. -

Albert Einstein has given out an interpretation of spacetime that is actually the endless evolving frequency- cum-becoming process in Mother Nature. We could liken the frequency to space and the becoming process to time because time is actually a dimension (indicator) for the becoming process and space is merely an expression for energy in play as per frequency (i.e. the number of occurrences or observations within a given time period or statistical category). Present-dynamism = frequency x becoming (space x time) And a wormhole is literally a cross path for different planes of existence. There is a possibility for beings to perform a time travel from one plane of existence to another via a wormhole. The described wormhole here is basically referring to a tweak of frequencies by beings with higher vibrational frequencies to discern the beings in lower vibrational frequencies. The general prescription is that any realms of higher vibrational frequency would be able to discern the realms of lower vibrational frequency. However, the realms of lower vibrational frequency would not be able to discern any realms of higher vibrational frequency. If the vibrational frequencies of the perceiver are lower than the perceived, the cascading events are deemed impossible. In other words, the object or matter must keep on within the purview of the subject’s frequency horizon; without it, the observation would be impossible. It is akin to any beings of higher vibrational frequencies having an aerial perspective on the affairs of beings with lower vibrational frequencies rather than the other way round. Therefore, beings of grander vibrational frequency span are able to discern at-will basis on all other beings with common vibrational frequency span via a tweak of frequencies. In fact, one of the instances on time travel that occurred many times in the human plane of existence is the trance mediumship or channeling. Basically, there have been some elements of compatibility that in turn conjure up a synergic cohesion of mental and physical energies and consciousness between the medium and the spirit that manifested through the body. Beings of higher vibrational frequencies from another plane of existence would have the ability to encroach upon the human innate mind consciousness that is basically lower vibrational frequencies. A gateway or so-called a wormhole is deemed necessary to initiate the spirit communication and it is embedded within the human innate mind consciousness per se. In present society, the trance mediumship or channeling has a number of purposes but mostly, it is pertaining to foretelling the well-being of the interested party, especially in Asia. Basically, the spirit with higher vibrational frequencies has the ability to grasp the future possibilities related to beings with lower vibrational frequencies because of variances in the relative timeline. Comparatively, the clock would appear to be ticking faster in the human plane than the celestial plane because a higher vibrational frequency would yield a slower becoming process. Therefore, it is not a case whereby the spirit has a classic talent to foresee things ahead of time in the human plane because everything would exist at the same time under a common pace of spacetime or present-dynamism only. -

Where is the truth and how could one look for the ultimate truth? Simply, the truth is not out there. The truth arises in you. You are the truth. You create truths and not someone else out there. Literally, it is difficult for one to see the truth because one’s eyes couldn’t see one’s own eyes. For instance, both the duck and the cow are created truths. Precisely, this kind of truth is also known as conventional truth i.e. a subjective-cum-relative truth. This means the truth orientation is dependent on the observer (i.e. the subject’s mind) to provide the description, definition, recognition, valuation, etc. on the other side of the object or matter. And the truth conclusion varies among different observers or minds. In another instance, if you were to show an I-phone to a caveman, he would describe it as merely a useless hard object. And if you were to show it to let’s say, an ant, it becomes a gigantic heavy object. Likewise, you can be named as a human, a son, a father, a preacher, a student, a Caucasian, an American, a thin man, an old man, a buyer, a supplier, a stranger, etc. concurrently. At the end of the day, the observer (be it your own self or another third party) would provide the definition or recognition based on their respective perception on the same referred object or matter. Once again, one does not need to be served with the truth because it is not out there. For a person who believes in the existence of God as creator and ruler of the world or universe, every existence in the cosmos would rise and fall within the kingdom of God. This means all beings or things are the essential constituents of God and therefore, as humans, we can also be known as namesake gods. In order to seek for the ultimate truth, it is imperative for one to abandon the stereotyping mindset that is associated with the ‘-ism’ or ‘-ology’ for it is a system of pre-conditioning or pre-disposition (a.k.a. a ‘locked-in’ mentality). Generally, liberation is the only right potion to the ultimate truth discovery and with the inculcation of right determination, the ultimate truth can be discovered by anyone right here, right now. This would mean observations on all the phenomena would need to be based on unbiased grounds i.e. on neutral and upright positions. Enlightenment is about seeing and knowing it all by our mind consciousness i.e. seeing and knowing into the true nature and its orientation all the time. As a start, one would realise that Mother Nature is the pinnacle of all the dependent and non-dependent circumstances in the cosmos. It is considered as the supreme state of all things with the attributes of emptiness. Emptiness of phenomena exists in the way it appears in direct perception and without the need to reference of any other entity. It is completely defined by its own nature. In other words, emptiness of phenomena is an inherent existence that is uncaused. It is indestructible and eternal. It is unchanging when viewed externally and cannot undergo any internal changes of state. It has no constituent parts and nothing can be thrown out or removed from it. Nothing can be added to it and no change in the external conditions can affect it. For a theist, this phenomenon is also known as One Supreme Being or God. In other words, all things or matters would rise and fall within the Mother Nature or so-called the One Supreme Being or God. This is the deepest fact about things and nothing can be recognised beyond its boundary. Without Mother Nature, nothing would ever exist - no things or happenings would arise. However, on another perspective, emptiness is the key attribute of all things or matters that ain’t stop for nothing and always in motion, just like the saying goes, ‘There is another mountain higher than this one, always!’ In other words, because of emptiness, all things or matters would rise and fall in the continuum of eternity. Therefore, we could classify that emptiness is a universal quality that is inherent existing and dependent arising concurrently. As a conclusion, seeing the truth can be direct and simple. Ultimately, one just needs a right determination to be enlightened on all the surrounding phenomena. For a reference, every phenomenal existence is the product of the proper combination of causes and conditions. Each of the causes would need other causes to be present together with their respective conditions. As humans, we are also subject to cause and condition all the time. In fact, we are basically the end result of a certain unique frequency pattern of consciousness – a wave of collated high and low vibrations that subsequently bring forth a conflation of mind and body. Our mind and physical body are merely an interim containment of certain blueprint of vibrational frequencies that fluctuates according to the influence of multiple causes and conditions. And it is imperative for one to initiate with wise approach to comprehend this truth via enlightenment. -

Awareness is a ground condition that supports consciousness. Consciousness is appearance of objects in the mind. When awareness touches on objects, consciousness would arise simultaneously. Mind is a pattern of consciousness that is born from awareness. Mind is also known as consciousness-in-individuality. The origin of individuality is the same as the origin of the mind. Mind is something more objective and involves clear discrimination – differentiates and understands the characteristics of objects. One utilises mind to understand things because mind understands the manipulation of consciousness. In general, consciousness is synergy and synergy is energy - it can neither be created nor destroyed but could only take on various forms or categories. On this pretext, one could witness the geometric expansion of it such as the prevailing mind consciousness and the subtle mind consciousness. In other words, consciousness that arises prior to the mind formation would not be able to differentiate and understand the characteristics of objects despite its omnipresence in the cosmos. In addition, consciousness has the ability to expand and pervade through any corresponding planes of existence simultaneously and indefinitely. This development becomes a foundation for the parallel existences in Mother Nature. -

Analyse this…. All things in the cosmos are made up of energy vibrating at different frequencies. When there are opposing forces, there would be vibration. The alternate movement of the opposing forces would generate a continuum of wavy pattern oscillating up and down. This is the main reason for all the repeating cycle of rising and falling activities that one could witness in the cosmos. In a way, energy is a fundamental element in the cosmos and space is merely an expression for energy as per frequency i.e. space is energy in play and energy is space in tango. There is always a parallel reality at the other dimension of cosmos and all different dimensions or realities would vibrate in varying frequencies (in a faster or a slower speed than one another). In the realms of parallel reality, there are two types of becoming process i.e. consciousness-bound and bare-consciousness-bound. Consciousness-bound becoming process is subject to the manipulation of minds and conditions under myriad of vibrational frequencies. These chaotic frequencies would permeate and transpire across numerous planes of existence i.e. to the next corresponding frequencies indefinitely. On the other hand, bare-consciousness-bound becoming process is a simple becoming process under uniformed frequencies. These regulated frequencies would permeate and transpire across resonated frequencies on a more confined basis. Just like most of the trained Buddhist monks in Tibet could foresee their next rebirth horizon and its timeline, as we may have heard of it before. Basically, consciousness is synergy that has the ability to expand and pervade through any corresponding planes of existence simultaneously and indefinitely. This development becomes a foundation for the parallel existences in Mother Nature. In fact, the commonly known stories of human beings running into ghosts or spirits as well as the extraterrestrials are among the few instances of parallel reality being discerned by the human mind frequencies and it can be shown in the attached photo images. A wormhole is literally a cross path for different planes of existence. There is a possibility for beings to perform a time travel from one plane of existence to another via a wormhole.

Generally speaking, all different planes of existence are the end result of polarity in the traits of consciousness with the mind functioning as a forerunner in determining the frequency of the traits. In fact, it is the elements of memory within the mind that become the basis for the heritability of consciousness bearing traits; without it, whatever evolution of consciousness in spacetime would be impossible. Besides, there are variations and conditioned relationships in consciousness between beings; it is not identical but neither is it completely distinct. The new arising consciousness is neither identical to, nor entirely different from, the old consciousness, but forms part of a causal continuum or stream with it. On another aspect, the varying vibrational frequencies in the respective planes of existence would conjure up unique forces of energy that are interweaving and interfering amongst other corresponding or resonating frequencies elsewhere. As such, it is not surprising for one to observe a growth or a demise of certain species in a population as there are always natural forces interacting and complementing to bring forth a harmonious dynamic system across all planes of existence in Mother Nature. -

The absolute truth is that all things would either fall into the category of something or the category of no-thing ad infinitum. There’s no two ways about it. No-thing means absence. But an absence of any or all units under consideration is not equivalent to nothingness of any or all units under consideration. Therefore, absence is not about nothingness but instead it is about no-thing-ness. No thing means no becoming or no changing. No changing means no suffering. No suffering means no mind. Mind is the forerunner of all states. No mind means a completely neutralised state of affairs - that is nibbāna as per Buddhism. -
Firstly, you need to understand yourself before understanding others. You are what you are. The truth arises in you. You are the truth; you create truths and not someone else out there. Enlightenment would prompt you to understand that there is so-called self in all things but the lacking is merely the ownership of it. What we used to claim such as the ‘I’ or ‘you’ or ‘we’ is merely an expression for our minds to comprehend on the day-to-day communication with another individual. However, this expression does not grant us with an ownership of our soul or body. And all created things are not permanent and subject to change all the time under the influence of conditional phenomena i.e. the emptiness in every existence. In a way, every existence would not be totally the same or different from each other. We are all closely inter-depending, inter-waving and inter-relating with one another since the dawn of time in a very comprehensive and complicated network of existence.

Imagine that you're nothing but wave-energy fluxes. You're in nowhere else. Slowly but surely, you’d begin to divert into a realm of low frequency. All things would rise and fall slowly and discretely – your imagination, breathing, thinking, etc. As again, imagine you’re nothing but low-level of energy waves and then your mind would begin to channel into:- Maintain…maintain, sustain…sustain, easy… easy, let go…let go, peace…peace, silence…silence, ….cool…cool… (repeat) Overtime, your ego would water down and evaporate into emptiness. At the end of the day, transcending the mind via meditation would allow the dilution of one’s personal ego under the light of pure awareness and subsequently, it would give rise to the original source connection – the emptiness of all things. -

It's called delusion....
