Why is there anything at all?
Do you know this state of Wonderment about the fact of Existence and the fact of consciousness? If yes: how do you get into it and feel it?

Indeed - it is a mystery why there is anything at all.
But what is there really? Is there ever anything other that what is actually happening?

Well the question he asks is : why is there even something happening ?
I don't think we can answer this question. If there is a god, maybe god himself doesn't know why god is happening.

the existence of nothing automatically creates the existence of something because you can't have one without the other. nothing means nothing unless you have something to compare the nothing to
Its not easy. It seems that the routines and patterns of the mind are like limiting forces that "trap me" into a narrow perspective of a boiled down past and a seeming future.

In a world of polarity that "exists" yes. But there could have been also a singularity which consists of nothing.

What if there is nothing appearing - as everything?
