Assuming that the universe or universes are a result of blind physical processes following laws that came from wherever they do, then what could possibly be the first step taking non existence and nothingness into existence and somethingness? |

Obviously I can't give you the answer to what the first cause or step was. But one universal law is that nothing is permanent. So even nonexistence is impermanent.

Mind is limited to thinking about 'things.' Nothing is by definition the absence of a thing, but by definition is a 'thing.' . . . So nothing is really something.. ![]() |

The present moment is dependent on many things for its seeming existence..not least of all the mind that sees it as a moment. All things are dependent upon the mind..and the mind is just a label itself..it has no independent existence.

If nonexistence were permanent you wouldn't be here now. . because 150 yrs ago you didnt exist..

@ propidol - 9.10.14 - 10:03pm Assuming that the universe or universes are a result of blind physical processes following laws that came from wherever they do, then what could possibly be the first step taking non existence and nothingness into existence and somethingness? Pretty much unanswerable, the follow up to any answer would be the inevitable 'what was there before?' |

Perhaps nothingness comes from somethingness

I think I may have misunderstood initially, the question I would have is nothingness possible to begin with? And that in itself raises more questions. |

@ 0gypsy0 - 10.10.14 - 04:01pm Perhaps nothingness comes from somethingness Then surely it wouldn't be nothingness? |

Then nothingness is just something undefined.. Or semi-defined? ..Wave being an intermediary state between somethhingness and nothingness? (wave-particle duality in quantum physics) ![]() |

@ ogdenz - 10.10.14 - 03:33am If nonexistence were permanent you wouldn't be here now. . because 150 yrs ago you didnt exist.. I can't be aware of my own non-existence as I can't be conscious of not being conscious. Billion years or even more have passed and I didn't know it .My nonexistence could've been permanent or not... It's frustrating to find out ![]() |

Your nonexistence can't have been permanent or you wouldn't be here now.

I think our own existence is independent of our non-existence..
