. Reality is the most inclusive domain. By definition, there is nothing outside reality. This means that reality is self-contained.

. Everything real enough to affect reality is already inside it.

. "Nothingness" [the Ain] is the ground-state of existence arrived at by stripping away the constraints of reality.

. "nothingness" is informationally defined as zero constraint or pure freedom, and the apparent construction of the universe is explained as a self-restriction [tzimtzum] of this potential.

. Since reality has a self-defined informational boundary distinguishing it from its complement (unactualized potential or unreality), it has recognizable content and structure.

. Since there are no distributed constraints to limit its content, "nothingness" is all-inclusive, infinite potential, and the source of all freedom.

. Reality is created by filtratively emerging from this potential by the process of telic recursion.

. UBT is "a realm of zero constraint and infinite possibility where neither boundary nor content exists."[1]

makes me think of what thomas hobbes says in leviathan ...

Likewise when we attribute to him [God] Sight, and other acts of Sense; as also Knowledge, and Understanding; which in us is nothing else, but a tumult of the mind, raised by externall things that presse the organicall parts of mans body: For there is no such thing in God; and being things that depend on naturall causes, cannot be attributed to him.

Hee that will attribute to God, nothing but what is warranted by naturall Reason, must either use such Negative Attributes, as Infinite, Eternall, Incomprehensible; or Superlatives, as Most High, Most Great, and the like; or Indefinite, as Good, Just, Holy, Creator; and in such sense, as if he meant not to declare what he is, (for that were to circumscribe him within the limits of our Fancy,) but how much wee admire him, and how ready we would be to obey him; which is a signe of Humility, and of a Will to honour him as much as we can: For there is but one Name to signifie our Conception of his Nature, and that is, I AM: and but one Name of his Relation to us, and that is God; in which is contained Father, King, and Lord.
