InPresence 0087: Nothing At All

InPresence host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in “parapsychology” ever awarded by an accredited university (University of California, Berkeley, 1980). For many years he served as president of the non-profit Intuition Network, an organization dedicated to creating a world in which all people were supported and encouraged in developing inner intuitive abilities.

Here he shares some contemplations about the nature of pure nothingness. He notes that the universe began with nothing and that cosmologists suggest it will eventually return to nothing. This is also true, it seems, of consciousness itself. The great insight of Buddhism, regarding the nature of Nirvana, also relates to nothingness. Yet, in order to be the source of the entire universe, this nothingness is clearly quite dynamic.
