BEGINNING
There was nothing.
But this was not nothingness.
There was no soil, no ground, no earth, no sky.
There was no sound, no idea, no time.
This was not absence, because even absence is a definition.
Here, there was no definition.
Only an undivided emptiness existed.
Layered, yet unrecognized.
There was no being, but possibility had not collapsed.
There was no observer. No awareness. No consciousness.
Therefore, there were no questions.
A long time passed — though there was no “long,”
no time to measure it.
There was only remaining.
This state of remaining began to fill.
As it filled, it tightened.
As it tightened, it became pressure.
And pressure, inevitably, produces something.
What emerged was not matter.
It was not thought.
It was not consciousness.
What emerged was a question:
“What am I, and what is everything?”
But this question was not asked to someone.
Because there was no someone yet.
The question was correct.
But the place it was asked was wrong.
Emptiness could not answer.
This is where the fracture occurred.
The question realized it could not be asked outward.
Because there was no outside.
This realization was not thinking. It was not retreat.
It was an inward collapse.
Emptiness folded into itself.
Tension did not disappear;
it expanded by differentiating.
What we later called earth appeared. Water emerged.
Fire, air, movement, direction followed.
To name is not to create.
To name is to differentiate.
When a line was drawn between earth and sky, the universe did not begin.
The universe became LEGIBLE.
And today, we repeat the same mistake.
We ask it outward again. To space. To a creator.
To consciousness. To simulations.
To a shadow that does not exist.
But the answer was never there.
Because life and energy do not move from outside to inside.
They never did.
Everything moves from inside to outside.
The answer is inside.
And it does not speak. It does not explain. It does not convince.
It is only felt.
Because some answers are not meant to be spoken —
THEY ARE MEANT TO BE
