Nothing being Everything is not a contradiction. There are NO contradictions in nature.

Reality is a verb. There is no such thing as a contradictory reality.

Both Nothing and Everything exist as a stateless state in constant ''Superposition'' seemingly as polar opposites, but are one and the same SEAMLESS REALITY.

Despite these apparently conflicting realities, both are PRESENT and correct. Always here NOW.

What or Who is being Nothing and Everything is CONSCIOUSNESS.

What is consciousness? No one really knows. Everyone just wants to say they know, but they don't really know. The mystery will be infinite. God or consciousness will forever be exploring itself infinitely. Because God is absolute infinity. There is no end or begining and nothing will ever be fully known.

IS CONSCIOUSNESS the SELF?

Not really, there is no self, except in this conception, appearing as the dream. The Self doesn't actually exist, it is hallucinated by the absolute. It is void.

That's what no-self means. It's not about the character, it's about the actor of all characters: Atman, the "I Am".

Atman IS the dream. Is "God". Is maya...

Life is a dream, dreamt by not - a - thing yet arises as all things.

Nothing is different from everything. Everything, however, sums up to nothing.

Reality is a noun.

Nothing is not the opposite of everything. Everything is composed of things. Things have opposite properties in which these properties cancel each other out.

Nothing is gone. It is not present anymore.

No. Consciousness is the ability of mind, ability to experience.

I defined consciousness.

No. Self is mind. Consciousness is the ability of mind.

How void could possibly decide?

What we experience daily is not very different from the dream.
