Cloud-Hidden, Whereabouts Unknown

Through this intense exploration of sensory experience he discovers two things. First, that existence or energy is at root a simple alterna- tion or vibration of on and off, yes and no, now you see it/now you don't, which is capable of infinite complication, as all numbers can be represented with the symbols 0 and 1. He learns that the "yes" or "on" element of energy cannot be experienced without contrast with the "no" or "off," and therefore that darkness and death are by no means the mere absence of light and life, but rather their origin. In this way the fear of death and nothingness is entirely
overcome.
