Consider this! The surface of the planet is covered in a transparent substance, water!  Diamond! The hardest substance known to Man is also transparent! The oxygen we breathe and all the other gasses in the air, Transparent! Light is also transparent and can only be seen when it hits a solid surface and as we know nothing is really solid when we look at structures at atomic levels! Space is also Transparent and thou it is considered to be nothingness, it is in fact something! In order for an element to be considered to be something separate from another thing, it cannot be separate unless nothingness exists to give it that separation. Therefore nothing is also something, so things can exist!  We live in a transparent Universe! So space is something! And that something (Space) is displaced by matter. On planetary and galactic scales this causes gravity! This explains the apparent weakness of gravity in relation to other forces as it is not a force but a reaction and  is similar  to the effect as seen in water displacement. When space is displaced by something, the nothing (or space which is something) tries to equalise itself and matter falls in on itself where space is displaced (There is no Void) the greater the density of matter the stronger the displacement gravity. Something and nothing (matter and space)  are opposites equal in proportion to the whole, but at the same time, it is and they are, a singularity. Black holes being where they meet at the most extreme and I believe that is where more  "space" is created! causing the Universe to expand. The whole physical creation is suspended in a transparent substance that is one without detachment, the only separation is perceptual. Just like the Zen Buddhist story regarding Mans search for enlightenment being likened to the fish searching the oceans looking for water and didn’t realise he was suspended in water and the ocean was the water all along. Space is our suspension as the water is to the fish. Even thou the metaphor was meant differently the point is the same. Atomic particles show none locality, so it could be said that light is slowed down by space as light is a structure passing through a structure. Sub atomic particles display none locality because they are on the event horizon of becoming closer to the structure of space, than matter and substance, (as we perceive it) which is the same universally and is everywhere and every when, all at the same now. These statements and ideas can only be seen with the mind. Mind is created by bio chemical electrical matter, but consciousness is on a par with the sub atomic quantum realms of reality. The nature of space, matter and mind are an infinitely profound meeting place. Consciousness is an event horizon operating in Quantom electro chemical shift  and is not limited to its physical electro chemical birth. Consciousness is vast it holds your whole universe, and the universe holds your consciousness.

The human condition is caught in the duality of opposite extremes of emotion and sensation. Faith and Divine love have physical power but only the selfless can attain this power in its fullness!
