      I mean the fundamental basis of reality, everything that is real and does exist and is true, but looking at the root of everything, which is energy. What I mean by “nothing” is a state of dimensionless energy. If we ourselves are each and all forces of dimensionless energy that can will things then we can develop free will through consciousness to be our own causes of action.

      • Let’s assume that this is true. My point is that there is no explanation (at least not one which we are capable of understanding) for how this “dimensionless energy” can exist in the first place. I would also argue that aside from that absolute origin (whatever it is), everything will eventually be comprehensible by humans through materialism (although not necessarily using our current definition of “particles”).

          It’s possible because all “positive” energy can be balanced by “negative” energy, so thins can exist without dimensions even though it would seem like there’s nothing there materially. A materialist perspective can help explain dimensional things, but we need to understand the source through reasoning because we cannot through a material analysis.
