"It's just a question of semantics, isn't it?
Well, if I define "true darkness" to be the total absence of
light, then maybe what you're asking is: Is there such a
thing as true darkness?

The answer is: no, not in this universe. Our universe is flooded
with radiation (light) and matter (particles) of all descriptions
and energies, pretty much anywhere you go. But even if you could
imagine constructing a chamber which was shielded from all
radiation and energetic particles, and somehow shielded out all
neutrinos, and was cooled down to "absolute zero" so that the
walls of the chamber didn't emit thermal radiation -- even then,
if you looked around, you would see a tiny bit of light, which
comes from the production of "virtual pairs" of particles.
This is due to the nonzero "vacuum energy" -- the cold vacuum
of space is constantly seething with virtual particles which are
created in pairs, and annihilate each other again.

The resulting bit of light is extremely far below the limit of
the human eye's sensitivity, or of the sensitivity of any
known instrument. In fact, if you were trying to look with
your human eye, you would guarantee that it wasn't dark
because your body is very hot, and emits plenty of its own radiation
(mostly infrared -- which can be picked up with high-tech
surveillance systems). You can't have an observer who is non-missive.

What if you had an observer inside a black hole inside the chamber,
so that she could see out, but none of her own thermal radiation could
escape the black hole into the room. Even then, the black hole would
emit radiation that it picked up from the vacuum (this is called
"Hawking radiation" and exists because even the black hole has a
temperature of sorts).

Anyway, who'd want to live in a totally dark universe?

"True darkness is only theoretically possible in conditions of absolute zero."


All of this is well and good. But, I really think it exists in the corners of our mind!

Good luck! Let me know how it goes!

Answer 3

True darkness is The Abyss of the Infinite Night. It is anterior to any distinction of Light and Dark , of Day and Night and makes those possible. True Darkness is the Primordial Freedom from which Light as God emerges into being. True darkness is such that our most pitch black night is a blinding brilliance of countless suns in comparison...

Answer 4

Being inside a barrel, encased in cement, laying on the ocean bottom in the deepest trench in the ocean at midnight on a cloudy night with no moon. Well, anyway, that's about as true a place to find darkness as anywhere.

Answer 5

true darkness is when people walk around always wanting to hurt others, fight, kill, without reason or purpose. The are said to be lost in the darkness.

Answer 6

True darkness is more than not having eyesight.

It has little to do with eyesight, it's about what we are able to understand. A blind person is still able to "see" the answer and understand things.

There is a saying: "There is none so blind as he who will not see."

That means, for example:
Not seeing the solution;
Not seeing the way out;
Not seeing the obvious;
etc.

Answer 7

It's oceans of night ~ have experienced true darkness in Colossal Cave near Tucson..

Answer 8

well my friend i think,
the total ignorance is that what is known as True Darkness.

Answer 9

I believe it is Birth. Is not total ignorance darkness?

Answer 10

The absence of light covers the answer
