Seeking God
This is extremely difficult for me to explain, but after studying Zen Buddhism for some time and experiencing various little kenshos I've come to the conclusion that one and zero are the same number. The entirety of the presence of value and the entirety of the absence of value are theoretically the same thing. It's kind of like having a sheet of white paper. If that sheet of plain white paper was the only thing in existence (as in the presence of value being the only thing in existence, for we take value to be isolated in their existence) than there would be no black to define its "whiteness". The same thing applies to the void.
For me, this makes sense, but it is very hard for me to explain. So I'm interested as to whether or not any of you have a similar understanding of this.
