Re: word/power/truth
In Response To: Re: word/power/truth ()

Honour

"Anything is better than nothing.
Nothing is better than Jah.
Therefore, anything is better than Jah"

The above is a product of linear thinking. Linear thinking is not all bad, but it cannot be applied to all things.

I would never say that any thing is better than no thing. Because, any thing includes the knife in the gut. Any thing could also be a cancer cell.

The line of reasoning that I am following is very simple. 0 is the source of all. Jah is the source of all.

So, I would never say that no thing is better than Jah since the existence of no things - according to the classification I gave in the previous post - does not preclude the existence of the POTENTIAL for any/all things.

The void, as I have said before on another thread, is full to the brim. I have never bought into the perception of the void as being 'empty'. That specification of it's nature came from the wastern mind. The void is full to the brim, so full that it overflows. In fact, it is this overflow, that leads to the existence of things.

I am not presenting here the product of my own 'egotistic' ponderings on the nature of things. The line of reasoning that I have followed up to this point was brought foward long before I was born.

In Yoruba, the word for zero is also the word for a spring. A spring is the SOURCE of fresh water and water is the source of life (on Earth). The ancestors who constructed the lesson in those words, in my opinion, have not being bettered by anything presented by 'modern' physics. And they imparted thier lesson with a lot more economy.

When you speak of a vacuums and of the certainty that vacuums contain objects, you are not speaking (mathematically) about 0. You are speaking about 0.000000001 (perhaps to the power of -100). Just as some would be stuck at 0.999recurring while in pursuit of 1, so others can become stuck at 0.000001 to the power of -100 when seeking to percieve the icept represented by 0. But it is very simple.

Finally, can you tell me if in your opinion, there is such a thing as infinity. If you answer "yes", then I would ask how infinity can exist if there is no 0. If "no", then what is the largest number you know of?
