0=2

nothing not as in the absence of everything but as an absolution

From Liber L vel Legis
Sub figura XXXI:


"None, breathed the light, faint & faery, of
the stars, and two. For I am divided
for love's sake, for the chance of union."
"The Perfect and the Perfect are one
Perfect and not two; nay, are none!
Nothing is a secret key of this law"


Mathematical Formula
The formula 0=2 represents a cycle frequently used to describe the mystical result of yoga or sex magick. It may properly be linked to the concept of yin and yang.

The first half of the cycle deals with ascent from the normal to the supernal: the normal result of forcing two equal and opposite things to combine is annihilation of both values. This results in a zero sum.

The other half of the cycle is less readily understood as it deals with the descent from the supernal to the normal: the supernal result of a true union (through love) restores the values to the annihilated opposites, but in doing so sums the absolute values. This results in a sum of two.

A means of expressing this is as a pair of equations, which may demonstrate the change of perspective expressed in Liber Legis.

0 = (+1) + (-1) (combination of the original values of polar opposites resulting in annihilation of its members)

|+1| + |-1| = 2 (union of the absolute values of polar opposites resulting in the restoration of the members)
Thus yielding:


0 = (+1) + (-1) «=» |+1| + |-1| = 2

You can't even spell separate.... And "nothing" is a term that defines a boundless territory that intails all things.... Can't nothing..... And Paul goes on to explain many of the things that he means when he says "nothing".... neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come,nor height, nor depth,nor any other living creature, shall separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus. Nothing shall separate us from God's love. Things are an entirety and so Nothing covers all things as in No there is No thing that can separate us from the love of God. Get it? Good!!!!!~

Nothing is a figment of the imagination, a word that was made up to ease the minds of those who can't grasp reality.

Nothing has no value, use, or importance. You might say it is zero degrees. It does not exist and to exist you must have the state of being, life, duration, or occurance.

It's the opposite of anything.
