It was first in the fifth century that an Indian mathematician named Aryabhatta introduced zero to the world, followed by another Indian mathematician in 628 AD called Brahmagupta who popularized it.
Aryabhatta also presented a heliocentric model of our solar system in which the Earth and other planets orbit the sun. The necessity for the existence of zero was evident in his proofs, and he became immortal for showing to the world "that subtracting a number from itself results in zeroโ.
If the fundamental profundity of the above does not immediately strike you, do not worry, it is not so different from the unseen obviousness of the universe, something so obvious that no one can articulate it.
Indeed, zero is the same as the nothingness of which we speak, everything starts from zero, the seed of what everything is.
And now, we carry another message to the world:
By showing not telling of the existence of, not zero this time, but of infinity itself.
Everyone today can see that zero exists because the concept is so very clear from so many millennia of usage and experience - in other words, the concept of zero is now well known and articulable because people can experience zero - for example, the experience of fruit becoming nothing after eating it - people can put a name to the actuality of zero, and match it to the reality of their experience of nothing, as compared to the experience of something.
Now, we show this other mathematical concept is actually real and can be experienced - infinity - from which everything flows, first as nothing then as something - and one can illumine the path to eternal and universal abundance - another word that people know only conceptually.
We show that the experience of infinity is available to anyone, not just in material terms which is visible and tangible โ but more importantly in that realm thatโs entirely invisible and entirely intangible.
The actuality of infinity is felt as the true reality and the true self of all beings and of all things, which is to say that the experience of infinity is felt as real and sure as one experiences oneself and others, and indeed to the same degree that one thinks of oneself as real, and their experience as real.
It is here that it is discovered that to realize infinity is to discover oneโs own true nature as abundance itself and to spread as far and wide as infinity can spread, which is to say there is nowhere that it is not, it is always and everywhere and everpresent and everlasting.
And not to just revere it, yes revere it for what it is, but also to share it, or indeed to help everyone rediscover it and to realize it for themselves, to realize that while the earth revolves around the sun, all of manifestation revolves around the infinity from which it arose.
It is in realizing infinity that one sees the real zero, the real nothingness, for infinity is never itself anything, just the obviousness of it is recognized and realized by itself.
It is upon this universal truth that we can rest, eternally Awake.
