Frequently Asked Questions
Will I be "empty" forever if I don't ask it to change?
No. This is "Recognizing Emptiness Without the Change-Demand." Paradoxically, "Asking it to change" is what keeps the emptiness "locked" in place because it keeps the Conflict System active. By Recognizing it and letting it be, you allow it to complete its cycle. Emptiness is a Passage, not a Destination. It will change on its own biological clock once its work (rest and clearing) is done.
How do I know when the "emptiness" has done its work?
You’ll know when a Genuine Spark of interest or desire arises—not because you "forced" it, but because it "occurred" to you. This is the Done Signal of the Hollowness Arc. Until then, stay in the "Neutral Space." You are a "Human Integrator" in a state of high-density rest. Everything is exactly as it should be.
