But that makes no sense. Human translations of perceptions mean don't mean anything in reality. They are just ways to communicate. The difference is, we can never fully explain any 1 thing in the world. So our babel is really just a feeble attempt to explain what we cannot.
You can say nothing has infinite definitions. But that is the tricky part. You can't define what doesn't exist. You can try to define the idea that something doesn't exist, but that's as close as you will ever come.
Human translation of human realities is a product of conditioning. Not truth.

Well, I'm sure technically, and I guess obviously, nothing really doesn't exist.
But a definition is not a fully explanation, I've found myself confused still and wondering about things after looking up a word or whatever.
noth·ing –noun
1. no thing; not anything; naught: to say nothing.
2. no part, share, or trace (usually fol. by of): The house showed nothing of its former magnificence.
3. something that is nonexistent.
4. nonexistence; nothingness:

I guess what I'm trying to say is, how are you so sure our own human communication did not make up the literal thought and creation of "nothing". Or even if nothing exists.
"In the beginning, there was nothing."
^I guess that just makes things harder to understand for me.
