The World Doesn’t WANT Anything
The world doesn’t WANT anything. The world doesn’t NEED anything. The world is just as “happy” being polluted with whatever physical or mental flotsam we humans want to throw at it.
The world doesn’t WANT anything. The world doesn’t NEED anything. The world is just as “happy” being polluted with whatever physical or mental flotsam we humans want to throw at it.
You see, happiness is a manmade concept. As is good. As is evil. Beyond this imaginary idea of humanity, nothing need be distinguished or extinguished. It all just is. And isn’t. It matters not either way. We keep making such a big deal out of this thing called “life” because that’s our little game — making something out of nothing.
Beyond this game, and all our other games, we are all just ONE INFINITE NOTHING. Call it love. Call it imagination. Call it grace. We just are. And aren’t. We seem to separate everything into opposites, but opposites, too, are imaginary.
We are ONE. We are that which is, that which is not, and that which is incomprehensible from within the human game. It matters not how the game is going, or whether we win or lose. It matters not whether this is or isn’t, whether we are or we aren’t.
You seem to have a “problem” with this idea of “not mattering,” like your life is some kind of joke without meaning or purpose. Again, you cannot fully fathom meaning from within the depths of your game. There is more to “meaning” than the human meaning.
Just trust and allow that you are your own god, and for you to occur, god imagined some pretty neat tricks. You may call them miracles. It matters not. You are divine. This is all you need know — the rest is yours to experience.
1/2
We explore the philosophical perspective that the world, as an entity, is indifferent to human concepts and actions, delving into the idea of the inherent neutrality of existence and the human propensity to assign meaning and value.
The Indifference of the World
The repeated statement that the world doesn’t want or need anything conveys the notion of the world’s inherent indifference. It suggests that the world, in its natural state, is unaffected by human judgments or actions, whether they are constructive or destructive.
Human Constructs of Happiness and Morality
The assertion that happiness, good, and evil are manmade concepts challenges the often-accepted idea that these values have universal significance. It implies that beyond human perception, these concepts lose their meaning, and everything simply exists as it is, without inherent distinction or value.
The Game of Life and Human Significance
Describing life as a “little game” of making something out of nothing reflects a perspective that views human endeavors and concerns as ultimately inconsequential in the grand scheme of existence. It suggests that our efforts to find meaning and purpose are self-imposed constructs within the framework of our own understanding.
Oneness and the Illusion of Opposites
The poem touches on the concept of oneness, stating that we are part of an infinite nothingness that encompasses all dualities and opposites. It challenges the tendency to categorize and separate experiences into binaries, proposing that these distinctions are also part of the human game.
The Struggle with Insignificance
The mention of a problem with the idea of “not mattering” addresses a common human concern about the significance of our lives and actions. It suggests that our search for meaning and purpose might be limited by the confines of human understanding.
Beyond Human Meaning
The concept of there being more to meaning than human understanding can grasp invites us to consider broader, possibly incomprehensible, dimensions of existence. It implies that our limited perspective might prevent us from fully understanding the true nature of reality.
Self-Divinity and the Experience of Existence
The encouragement to trust and allow oneself to be one’s own god, and the idea that to exist, god imagined “neat tricks” or miracles, suggests a perspective where each individual is seen as an integral and divine aspect of the universe. It emphasizes the importance of personal experience in understanding our place in the world.

Summary
We examine the perspective that the world is indifferent to human concepts and actions, suggesting that values like happiness, good, and evil are human constructs. The discussion explores the idea of life as a human game with self-imposed meanings and the concept of oneness beyond the illusion of opposites. It challenges our understanding of significance and purpose, suggesting a broader perspective beyond human meaning, and encourages recognizing our own divinity and the value of personal experience.

“We are not human beings having a spiritual experience; we are spiritual beings having a human experience.” – Pierre Teilhard de Chardin
In the vast expanse of time and space,
Where human constructs interlace,
We find ourselves in a cosmic dance,
In the play of chance and circumstance.
Beyond the game, beyond the strife,
Lies the essence of our life,
In the realm of the infinite, we are free,
Part of the universe’s endless sea.
We invite reflections on the perspective of the inherent neutrality of existence, the human creation of meaning and values, and the concept of oneness and divinity within each individual.
