Nothingness

That feeling of silence, of emptiness, of vacuum; the one of absolute nothingness, is rare but blissful. You're like a pure white canvas. An unmatched serenity of soul. Pristine emotions of nothingness and that sudden tranquility of your character. The quest for eternal happiness ends in nothingness.

Nothingness is actually the Shangri-La. It's the utopia which everyone looks for. The things which people are after could simply be achieved by a sense of nothingness. The calmness or to its extreme, the numbness is the ultimate pleasure. When you are numb, you're immune to all worldly pains, sorrow and grief.

The absence of pain is probably the best pleasure. We seek for ourselves pleasures which are material and degradable. The absence of pain is obviously not what we seek because it's lack luster but what we seek is the bling. The glamour is not what utopia is, it's a place devoid of the negatives and nothingness is what strikes a perfect balance.

The only possible way to know everything, to possess everything is by knowing nothing, by possessing nothing. When you know nothing, there is obviously nothing that you can know more. For a man who has only seen white can never dream or demand of the myriad other colours. White is all he knows about and white is all that he is.

Ignorance is the ultimate bliss. The more you know, the more you desire, the more difficult it is to achieve and this cycle never ends. You keep on discovering new things, desiring new things and not achieving them causes the sorrows. The only escape from this trap, the Nirvana if I could call it, is to submit yourself to nothingness.

The pleasure of not knowing anything can not be described but only experienced. It's something that is a personal thing which only a few experience. Even if we don't attain it, it's something we should strive for. It is better to get stuck in this race than to get caught up in the never ending race of making to the top of the list. Every time you reach the top of any material things list, something gets added to the top. But once you submit to nothingness, all lists end and you experience the utopia.

"God had brought me to my knees and made me acknowledge my own nothingness, and out of that knowledge I had been reborn. I was no longer the centre of my life and therefore I could see God in everything."
