Question: In the Book of the Circle, there is mention of Emptiness. A physics teacher is interested in the concept of Emptiness from a physical perspective, considering it as a vacuum, which is not a destructive component for the material cosmos. On the contrary, it plays the role of superconductivity for signals. Does this mean that the Emptiness described in the Book of the Circle is purely a human concept?
On the contrary, in the Book of the Circle, absolute emptiness, non-being, is described. It is the absence of any existence.
The physical vacuum is not emptiness; it is a physical medium, filled with fields and virtual particles, which has been confirmed both theoretically and practically, as seen in the Casimir effect and the discovery of the Higgs boson.
From a certain perspective, even space cannot be considered absolute emptiness, since it has dimensions and, accordingly, contains itself.
Vacuum and space are "something."
However, the book describes absolute emptiness, "nothing," which, by its nature, cannot exist as an entity or independently, because it is the opposite of existence: non-existence. It only manifests in the world relatively.
To describe it, one could use examples such as the missing link in a well chain, the vacuum in an electrical circuit, a missing fragment of text, or life disappearing from a living form. Since the whole world is represented by forms, the non-existence of a part, or a contradiction that leads to the non-existence of part of a specific form, is its emptiness.
Accordingly, the emptiness described in the book is absolute, and its manifestations encompass the entire world of forms, both human, chemical, informational, physical, and others.
Question: The Book of the Circle can undoubtedly be a New Guideline for the further development of humanity on Earth.
It can be a new (well-analyzed "old") moral code, by following which we, humans, endowed with self-developing and curious consciousness, can, so to speak, as a whole world, reach a new level of existence on this planet, and possibly even beyond it. Perhaps not only as fragments of the creative Circle, sparks inhabiting biological shells, but in some other way.
The question is, how should we begin this Path? What are our first steps after receiving such multifaceted and all-encompassing information about the Circle?
We believe this to be true. The Circle is one for all.
The first action is to observe the continuation and cessation, and to reflect upon it.
This is the first step.
Your task is truly to make sure that everything is as it is written.
Begin to see the Circle.
Question: Are heroic efforts needed to completely fill oneself with the Circle, or can we expect that this will happen on its own, spontaneously, as long as we follow the main course of my Path and the general flow within the Circle?
No heroic efforts are needed, *step-by-step*, and uncover the emptiness only when you feel you've encountered its accumulation. Essentially, imagine life as a dialogue with the Circle. Imagine a person who, throughout their life, has a dialogue with the spirit of their religion. For this religious person, the spirit answers in some places, and doesn't in others, for some reasons. But the Circle answers for everything. If your milk has boiled over – that's the Circle, it's your dialogue with the Circle. What matters more is consistency than heroism.
Question: When a person learns about the world, their curiosity leads them to the emptiness, as it exists within them. Thus, they gain experience interacting with the emptiness. But if they are always focused on the Circle, and remain with the Circle, how will they gain this experience? What will happen to the process of gaining this experience?
There will be the experience of passing through the emptiness. The more aligned you are with the Circle, the less painful it will be. The less aligned you are, the more Emptiness and connections with it exist within you, the more painful it will be. It's like being completely attached, with all your soul, to the leaves on trees that will fall in the autumn.
