i get it now, mysticism. the void is not empty - merely unyielding. you keep the void in mind. much can be revealed, but some will never. so you pick the eternally unrevealable, make it your symbol. your contemplative focus point. something to struggle against, as not to struggle would be to resign to ignorance: resting in what little light you found. a mysticist must reveal. only through revealing they will struggle against the void, first to all that is, second to none.
