Nothing is a concept that describes the absence of anything. Colloquially, it is used to indicate the lack of anything relevant or significant, or to describe a particularly unimportant thing, event, or object.
Sometimes I find myself in this state of 'nothingness'.It just happens on its own.Seems like I am elevated to some other level. Where time seems to pass and activities seem to happen around me,but I am not having anything particular to do, to say. Seems like nothing affects me.
My readings in a few spiritual books define this state of nothingness as the ultimate achievement. A state where you are unified with your surroundings. a state of being oneself, being aware and being satisfied.The teachings gave a lot of importance to the techniques required to attain these sense of nothingness, it also preached, that if you look too much for it, you wont find it-for its not there outside,but within oneself.
Its s state of ultimate calmness, with our own self, others.Acceptance of things as they are, free from any sort of questions, free from any kind of burden- just blissful solitude and peace.
Sometimes in my hyper active life, I mentally yearn for this kind of nothingness, and I feel blessed to achieve the same without much effort...or maybe there is effort...the effort of doing too many things,thinking too much...after which the mind gives way to this blissful state...
