Greetings Eja
Give thanks for the reasoning.
Zero has no meaning because there is no such thing as "nothing" in the manifested world. Modern physics have proven beyond a doubt that there is no such thing as a vacuum or a void... the absence of everything, or zero...anywhere in the universe. No matter how empty a space may appear, there is always something in it, even in the deepest, darkest regions of space.
There is no archetypal form of zero, either. It is impossible to say that there is a process of nothingness which effects all things, because even if there were such a process, that process would still be a process, and thus it would be something.
For example, let Ini take a look at the process known as decay (I mentioned this in my previous post about breaking things down to infintesmal form). Decay could be said to be a process of nothingness...the negation of something, and thus a process of nothingness. But decay actually is a process of breaking one thing down into another thing. The things involved never cease to exist completely, but instead simply change from one form to another. Thus, there is no nothingness which is ever achieved...only change.
Peace
