If there is only one thing, and this thing is without comparison other wise it would be more then one thing, then this thing is nothing.

Is it true that there has to be Nothing for Everything to exist, and there has to be Everything for Nothing to exist?

The totality is without compare for if it had comparison it would not be the totality, i.e. something would be beyond it. Thingness requires comparison otherwise it is not a thing as there is no distinction which allows the thing to be. The totality is without compare thus it is nothing. Nothing is without comparison, as there is nothing to compare, thus nothingness is the totality as there is no distinction within nothing that separates it from the totality, distinction requires separation and there is no distinction within nothing.
