Energy of the vacuum

Human psyche is an open system. It can be influenced by unknown energy inputs, and everything changes within the psychological entity without its conscious owner be the least aware of it. Imagine millions of subconscious psychological patterns, all intertwined, mutually influenced and influencing. The human spirit is the most dynamic entity I can think of, because it can think about itself. What the universe lacks is consciousness. It is an infinite pile of small complexities all interconnected to some extent, and while we can't really grasp all the interconnectedness of it yet, we can imagine what it is like. That's this ability to hypothesize that separates us from the wonders of the universe. Intelligent life IS the greatest wonder of the universe. An intelligent form of life like us WITH imagination IS the greatest wonder of the universe. Just imagine a race of ultra-advanced aliens with no sense of humor...

Sure, our minds can create evil, can create sadness, fear and hopelessness. But our minds, being open systems, can be structurally modified through the input of an external source of energy. External to our minds, maybe even external to our dimension. But being a part of this universe, a very important part of this universe, we can use the thread of the universe to sow our wounds shut. We can extract out of the vacuum what ties us all together. A source of energy impossible to understand. One one can only imagine. But it is there. It runs through every dimension, taking something here to bring it there. It provides energy to every system, whether they are blackholes or reactions to a tear or a smile, and prevents them from collapsing under the weight of the ever increasing chaos.

It is believed that we can consciously tap into that river of energy, that not only can we use its energy, but that we can also use it to communicate with any other ion in the universe. Parallelly, it is believed that human DNA can be structurally modified by strong emotions. Just imagine killing that cancer with a smile, fighting that depression with a laugh.

In nihilism some people see the downfall of human spirituality. I see in nihilism the liberation of the mind from the patronizing of religions and politics. The universe is beyond that. I see in a new nihilism the union of history and progress. In the vacuum lies our true power. In our minds lie the key to open the door.
