  1. nothingness, the void, empty space is all we are when you look at atoms and quantum physics. perhaps she’s accessing an alternate path at “nirvana” or “enlightenment” to be source, recognising that the physicality, the interaction you have with the world is nothing but a movement of energy, your brain a simple impulse of electricity eliciting feelings, emotions, thoughts. that the “life” we live as humans is all but a hologram. but to be still, to be nothing, is to be one with all. i absolutely adore your videos and your perspective and resonate with the pursuit at individualism, and yet this void feeling never really goes away for it truely is who we are. definitely one of my favourite explorations you have created, thankyou.

  2. it’s kinda crazy how all philosophy and religious text eventually come down to letting go of who you are/ your ego to be fully, truly free,,, it makes sense but it’s so hard to achieve that i don’t think anyone can fully grasp tel he concept until they reach it

  4. I think the same of Plath, but in the sense that Poe is a sorcerer, while Lispector and Baudelaire are practitioners of the craft of sorcery. Big difference, the former have it inborn while the latter cultivated their MAJIK.

  5. i would love a video dedicated to loneliness, i think you've touched on it before but it seems like intrinsic to the process of treating yourself as art and i'm wondering how to deal with it and treat it

  6. I too am currently reading A Breath of Life! I personally find it exhausting to read, I can only finish around 5ish pages at any given time before putting it down. She wrote something along the lines of "I write naked, that's why it wounds," and that perfectly sums it up for me. She writes so potently, it's both beautiful and horrifying.

  7. Dear Celinko, I have been a follower for a while now, and I wanted to express my fascination and gratitude for your videos! When I discovered your channel I was completely shocked because you explore so beautifully the topics I was always interested in but never met or heard anyone talking about it this way. Many times your vision reinstated my willingness to live for beauty and provided me with so many insights, ideas, so much inspiration. I am especially grateful for all your words and advice on bridging the gaps between the dream/ abstract/ mind world and our physical world via items , lifestyle, habits… I was wondering whether you have any insight on how to select and organise personal researches and studies? I am passionate about studying art theory and philosophy, but I get so lost sometimes, on what is really worth pursuing, and find it frustrating to forget some of the knowledge or get lost in my notes, or how much time it takes… Thank you again,- all your art, advice and vision are deeply appreciated! 🪄🌟

  8. I believe Clarice was an enlightened being. You touched on some truth when you said it was "something we all already have". The concept of Non-Duality speaks on this. The state of Nothingness is ever present, but in the realm of the material, or the mind, there exists separation. This is where our sense of meaning, permanence, and self-identity emerge from. This sense of separation lies in our identification with thought, or the sense of "I". To transcend this would be to experience the state where one is completely absent of identification with all things– a permanent detachment. This is when the Nothing is not only accessed, but realized . Once this breakthrough occurs, one can never go back. It's the infinite consciousness that will permeate your entire being, and thus all things in the universe. Reality is touched, and you are one with it, one with all.

  9. Well I find this fascinating but also being someone who comes from an extremely neglectful family, for the longest time I have suffered from a sense of complete disconnect from others or the purpose of life, I still do. And I eventually learned that past traumas of not being able to confide in one’s close to you from your childhoods results in an emptiness in you that makes you disconnect from feeling the desire or craving of connecting with others. Well this is just one aspect but this is what I would imagine “nothingness” must feel like? To completely detach from all things human- which for me is my detachment from others.

    So it just makes me wonder- isn’t this what complete depression is?

    To feel like nothing? To be nothing? Just complete darkness.. in the comfort of complete numbness. To be something that’s better off being hidden or erased?
    Or is it different?

  10. It's a nothing that is full. If you fully got to enlightenment you wouldn't have lips or eyes or a body to convey any of this information. Enlightenment for a human though is a full experience. It doesn't feel like a void robotic nothing. It is extremely scary to the ego, but your ego isn't the only thing that is you. The ego is afraid of divine love because it stops being the conventional limited human version of ego when divine love is integrated. Or your soul is integrated. Basically the ego dies and it's a slow uncomfortable process that everybody is going to deal with but it doesn't have to be slow all the time and it doesn't have to be painful for everyone all the time. We in general are more afraid of the pleasure that comes from that than the pain and when instinctively know this is something everyone's going to have to deal with. I am really excited to get into this author. Thank you for what you do. More Harmony is achieved by going in the souls direction, but everything in the physical realm tells us to be afraid of that direction which really is upside down. And inconvenient. I wrote that part about being full before I knew that she knew that the emptiness is fullness as well. I've never heard of this author before this channel

  11. paradox! both / and. yes to relinquishing the self and surrendering to the mystery. and also yes to being embodied and being defined and having edges. to be nothing and everything at the same time. we are spirits having a mundane experience and to try to escape from our materiality is hubris. but i see it more like a cycle, we empty ourself to then be full again. we exist in this liminal space.
