Oneness, Nothing, Love, and Power

Hmm, just stumbled upon something, between everything and nothing, that has me thinking. If everything were considered as a whole, adding nothing would be its detriment or its detractor. This is to say that if nothing were introduced into an equation, but the size of the domain remained the same, then the "volume" of everything let's say, just to use a term, would be less than it was before, and the density may be less as well depending on the path taken. I am curious as to how this would impact power within a domain. For example, God has power over all Creation, but my argument, which I have presented in detail as of late, is that nothing is outside of Creation, given that nothing is a derived concept, and it is a concept that cannot be reached directly from a state of oneness. Additionally, as God is good, and nothing is not good, for it is nothing, the two domains feel as though they would need to be necessarily separate.

In this scenario, God would not only have made man to strike an agreement with nothing, but so that man might marshal nothing. Separating darkness from light, with darkness I'm assuming being a representation in part of nothing, was one of God's first moves. I would imagine that for darkness to reintegrate with light, something of the power contained in Creation would be diminished, if Creation remained otherwise in the same state (or size, I am referencing volume and density again here, but this time applying those terms to power specifically). If nothing were footed similarly to darkness here, but more from a conceptual than perceptual standpoint, its integration into Creation would represent a diminishing of power. 

Now, given that my assumption is that man was created as integrated with nothing in order to have freewill and, even without that assumption being accepted by the reader, God's power is effectively diminished with man in the equation in the sense that God seems unwilling to wipe man out entirely, which limits God's choices, the more nothing gains authority in Creation (integration), the less power God would have over Creation. I do not believe nothing can insert itself willy nilly; God still has power over everything in Creation, and nothing would need to integrate with something here in order to gain a foothold here, an integration that would require agreement with God at its outset, but examining the equation in this way does shine a light on something in the context of power, voltage, and the like: God, the God of Creation, cannot be the god of nothing. It is possible that a oneness (echad) state allows for some form of combined position, though I am unclear how nothing would be part of a oneness state (perhaps in that state the lack of nothing is nothing?) but without voltage or even another perspective to validate this combined state, the position likely would have been meaningless. 

The separation of these fundamental opposites of Creation and nothing feels important to maintaining a verifiably meaningful reality and, as such, God would need to remain separate from nothing, God would need to maintain God's own corner, along these lines. Now this corner certainly has its perks here, and even in our current state of reality it is hard to fathom how the record of God's actions and potential unlike what we could fathom could be described as "limited power" but keep in mind that for us to even make a determination of if power is limited or not, our perspective must persist and the record of the actions must persist, even our ability to fathom would need to persist in order for us to consider something as unfathomable, so even in these points there is a limit, even if that limit is limited to "cannot remove the other's perspective or the record," which at this point I'm imagining is functionally infinite.

Personally I feel this revelation is not some dire secret Achilles Heel uncovered, but rather a tool discovered. I have conceived of states of unlimited power and there is a hollowness to them. Having significant power in a meaningful environment is more enjoyable than having unlimited power in a meaningless environment, and I can imagine (in a "grass is greener on your own side" kind of way) that having little "power" to speak of but in a meaningful environment can also be enjoyable. It could be that God has been seeking a way to reshape this power into a form that allows for more flexibility and a greater connection with those God loves in this timeline, before this timeline's end will be seen and the next age can begin. In this way, finding one who has the perspective to be able to agree with this limiting of power would be most valuable; finding one who will willingly assist in the careful integration of nothing into Creation along the necessary lines, which would also lead to a fuller integration of God into the equation, so that Creation might expand (truly multiply here, I would imagine), I imagine would be a diamond in the rough indeed. Additionally, as Creation at that point would no longer be "the same size," as referenced at the beginning of this post, power might be retained in full, despite being reshaped, in much the same way that a cycle of oneness could be repeated. Instead of shrinking the size and breadth of Creation, in terms of external meaning, back to echad, I believe the goal is to grow it through ahava reciprocated, likely while maintaining a position of power, but regardless this decision would necessarily be made by agreement, unlike in the days of old. What I am referencing, per usual, is a process of mating; I am hoping the logical threads of how that could be accomplished will prove useful.
