Void Two: The Man and His Search

There are two kinds of people alive defined by their concept of Time. There are those who have their world revolve around them and there are others who revolve around their world. The third type are dead, whether in the grave or are still breathing. These are the people that are at a standstill with their world. To be alive, we have to continue molding our concept of time by interacting the man with the inner world. The outcome is usually the arrangement of occurences in our lives.

Some say it is good to strongly desire for things and exert universal forces to actualise their reality. That paradigm is a truth because man has the capability to influence his environment to acquire the things he has desired. He can bend substance to his will signifying that he would be firm and rather have the world revolve around him. The falsehood in this paradigm is that its successes always incite pleasant responses from his inner world. It will say to him, “Now that we are here why am I not fulfilled?”. Sometimes in the confusion of mixed feelings he will hear it say, ” Is this all there is to it.” Unequivocally, our inner world points to a hole could become clear in this inner voice, “Why do I feel empty?” This is the Void, the time in space where the man’s soul, body and mind begs for a deeper reason.

Some say it is good to understand the cosmic habit forces of the universe and tune our conceptualization of Time to it. These forces are unbending principles or laws of nature embedded in all forms whether living or not. Going against such principles will break the individual and have disastrous consequences. For example, if you go against the law of gravity you risk a fall. If you go against the law of giving you risk lack. If you go against the law of growth you risk death. There are endless others too that defines a man by his environment, character, business, relationships and so on. One living by this paradigm is clearly one taking the effort to revolve around the world. It is true this is a sure way to achieve and duplicate successes in every field but it leaves a hope that is insatiated; the understanding of self. Understanding all around begs for a greater need to understand self with this nagging questions emanating somewhere from the Void like “Who am I?”, “What am I designed for?” “How do I master self?” Unequivocally, our inner world points to that hole that becomes clear in this inner voice, “Why do I feel empty?”
