Even in the spaces between the smallest particles of matter- inside atoms - and in the distant reaches of the Universe - what we call 'empty' space - there yet exists something. There is no such thing as empty, or a vacuum.

If silence is just our inability to perceive sound, if darkness is our inability to perceive light? Both sound and light are wavelengths of the energy that everything is, and it's that which gives rise to the creation of form. There is nothing that is not. Something does not come from nothing because nothing doesn't exist, creation isn't creation it's a reshaping of what already is.

Like your consciousness.
TED talks are amazing.

I've been existing on a diet of them for the past two weeks as basically everything is 'spiritual' depending upon which viewpoint you view things from.

The one that resonated with me most was 'How To Stop Screwing Yourself Over' by Mel Robbins.

Mel Robbins has sorta become my 'coach' as a result of that.

From there, I went on to the Unsettled Science program, viewing lectures given by Maria Syldona on the Quantum Mechanics of Kashmir Shaivism.

Not a TED talk...but informative nonetheless.
