Emptiness
The universe is empty because the space is empty. Our galaxy is empty. Anything that pertains to the space including stars, planets and other matters are empty. Therefore, we living beings are empty. Anything created by us or by anything is empty. The five elements of nature are empty. The sun is empty and is nothing but a ball of fire. The time which we created is empty. Everything is empty. Hemingway and Dalai Lama both say that there is nothing. Our lives are empty. If there is nothing and everything is empty, then what about us, earth creatures? We attach our lives to the earth which means we do not exist or even if we do, we mean nothing. Our soul or spirits mean nothing. Our birth, our death does not mean anything. So what about our history and the things we are doing right now? If there is no time, then why do we count days in our lives? Why live in a family, why work, why do everything that we are doing right now? If our life is an illusion, what is the purport of this life? Dalai Lama might say we are here to achieve enlightment but what difference does it make to know the truth because the truth is nothing and is empty in it. I believe that we are a game played by our self for no apparent reason. So why love your life, your property, your land, your family. If these attachments mean nothing, then why coagulate in this life blindly and try to escape from the truth? Why do we compete against each other for better life, land, education, job, dignity, etc. if they mean nothing? I believe we all should live with a common understanding that there is nothing and our lives here are momentary. If we all acknowledge the truth which is nothing then we could live together with no zeal, no wars, and no problems at all. Or, the other way which is that all the planets and stars reside in the space, we living beings live on the earth, depend on earth for everything. The sun does not exist but it does help us survive. The time does not exist but we depend on time to perform every action in our lives. The five elements do not exist but without those elements we can not live. Our souls do not exist but we live our lives believing in our souls. Family is needed to exist. Everyone is dependant one another. Wars either physical or mental both are worthless as humans also depend on each other to survive. All living beings and even non-living beings depend on each other for their existence even though they do not exist. Knowing the truth does not mean we have to ignore everything instead have to accept and move on as there is nothing to interrupt us. Finally, just like Hemingway did, I believe nothing is equal to nothing and we are compelled to deal with the world and can do nothing. Therefore, I conclude that my belief that there is nothing because my mind that controls my perceptions is empty.
