"Into the Void" is a sister-track to "La Mer," also from The Fragile; both songs grew out of the same initial track and feature the same bass line and melody. "Into the Void" starts with a short gamelan-based intro. Lyrically, Trent basically laments over his failed attempts of self-preservation, as he is sucked into a void of depravity, illustrated by the chorus, "tried to save myself, but myself keeps slipping away." A music video was made for this song. It was directed by Walter Stern and Jeff Richter and released on 14 January 2000. "Into the Void" has been covered by Eric Gorfain ...

Chakra - Chakras: The Void

Surrounding the second and the third chakra is the Void which stands for the principle of mastery (guru principle) within us. In many spiritual traditions, this area is the "ocean of illusions" that needs to be crossed with the help of a spiritual guide. When the Kundalini is awakened and passes through the Void, this principle of mastery is established within us.

Real strength is not what the physical eyes perceive. Real strength is the inner strength, the true self of the being. And the secret to this is the inner stability or sthirta. Strength is a very deep and subtle concept and is not just about physical appearance.

It is that which is sthir, which is silent, is pure energy. Just by the strength of one's sthirta one develops the capacity to draw any kind of force inside.

We now give you an intense and very effective technique for building the real strength which is all about maintaining inner silence, the technique of "Sound of the Inner Void."

Buddhist Quotes: In the Voidness of Reality

This fundamental consciousness in itself is nothing at all. In the voidness of reality lack of realizer and realized is realized, lack of seer and seen is seen, lack of knower and known is known, lack of perceiver and perceived is perceived.

Buddhist Quotes: Afflictions are Originally Void and Null

People who do not know how to practice the way therefore want to get rid of afflictions. Afflictions are originally void and null; you are trying to use the way to seek the way beyond.

It has been theorized that the Bootes void was formed from the merger of smaller voids, much as soap bubbles coalesce to form larger bubbles. This theory would account for the small number of galaxies that exist in a rough tube shape through the middle of the void. It has also been theorized that the Bootes void isn't empty, and is instead filled with dark matter. ...

Warning: Although Touching the Void is a true story, the next section contains details as to the content of the book and film, and may be regarded as a spoiler. Although previously attempted, Yates and Simpson were the first people to ascend to the summit of Siula Grande via the almost vertical west face. Disaster struck, however, on the descent. Simpson slipped down an ice cliff and landed awkwardly, smashing his tibia into his knee joint and breaking it. The pair, whose trip had already taken longer than they in ...

The film combines documentary footage of interviews conducted with Simpson, Yates and Richard Hawking with a reenactment performed by actors Brendan Mackey, Nicholas Aaron and Ollie Ryall. As part of the making of the film, the director and producers invited Yates and Simpson to return to Siula Grande in 2002 for the first time since the events of 1985. Simpson, despite finding the return very emotionally difficult because it opened up old memories that he would have preferred to have kept locked up, eventually said that he was happy ...

Nuclear fission reactors run on nuclear chain reactions, in which each nucleus that undergoes fission releases heat and neutrons. These neutrons may impact another nucleus and cause it to undergo fission. The velocity of this neutron affects its probability of causing additional fission, as does the presence of neutron-absorbing material. In particular, slow neutrons are more easily absorbed by fissile nuclei than fast neutrons, so a neutron moderator which slows neutrons will increase the thermal output of a nuclear reactor. A neutron absorber will decrease the thermal output of a nuclear reactor. These two mechanisms are used t ...

Ordinary (light) water absorbs neutrons fairly readily, and so removing water from the core (such as happens when it boils and is replaced by steam) tends to increase the rate at which the nuclear reaction proceeds. In a water-moderated reactor, this effect is countered by the reduction in moderation, but in the RBMK the moderating effect of the water is small compared to that of the graphite, so the overall effect is positive. This is called a "positive void coefficient". The RBMK as designed also had a "positive power coefficient", meaning ...

In general, there are three classifications of contracts that are not binding: Void: If a contract is held to be void, the contract has never come into existence. For example, a contract is void if it is based on an illegal purpose or contrary to public policy; the classic example is a contract with a hit man. Such a contract will not be recognized by a court, and cannot be enforced by either party. Voidable: A contract is voidable if one of the parties has the option to terminate the contrac ...
