It is hard to explain so kindly forgive the butchering. But there was a point in my meditation where everything was perfectly still and calm, and suddenly, I don't quite know how to explain it, a thought formed in my mind. It is not a thought in the tautological sense, where one idea flowed to the next, but it arose from a state of nothingness.

At the same time it couldn't be nothing, because how can something (a thought) come from nothing. It wasn't quite gross enough to be perceivable hence I termed it subtle nothingness..
