Nothing seems to happen in the emptiness, which is one of the six stages of spiritual awakening. You don't notice any outcomes. You don't get many chances. Wishes and desires go unfulfilled, and God appears to be too far away to notice your anguish. It feels like you're on your own.

What is the Void stage?
So, what exactly is this void? The phrase “the emptiness” may sound dramatic, but it's a regular step in the awakening process that occurs after the dark night of the soul. Because it frequently happens after we've recovered and gone through a lot of upheavals and changes, I like to call it The Great Rest.
What is the void in the mind?
In mysticism and religion, emptiness, also known as Nothingness or Void, is a state of “pure consciousness” in which the mind has been cleansed of all particular objects and images; it is also the undifferentiated reality (a world without distinctions or multiplicity) or quality of reality that the emptied mind reflects or manifests. The concept has appeared prominently in mystical thought in many historical periods and places of the world, with a subjective or objective reference (sometimes the two are identified). From the Upaniads (old Indian meditation treatises) to medieval and modern Western mystical works, the emptying of the mind and the realization of an undifferentiated unity is a topic that runs through mystical literature. The Taoist notions of hsü (q.v.) and Mahyna's sunyata (q.v.)
What is the void in shamanism?
The Voids we encounter occur in stages. As we negotiate spiritual awakening and the healing process that comes with it, they appear in our realities on a regular basis. When you find yourself in yet another period of darkness, it can feel as if all of your efforts on your journey have been for naught. To put it another way, a Void occurs when your vibration or frequency becomes locked in a ring or cycle of downward or horizontal movement.
Because the energy rotates so fast, you frequently experience density, despair, numbness, pain, fear, uncertainty, negativity, detachment, or hopelessness on an emotional, mental, physical, or energetic level.
Does everyone feel the void?
A sensation of loneliness, confusion about your life and ambitions, or a lack of motivation to pursue anything in life can all be symptoms of feeling empty.
Changing hormonal levels, losing a job, or the essential physical separation that comes with a pandemic could all be contributing factors.
Any life stage or event that requires you to think on yourself and your life may cause you to feel empty for a short time.
Feeling empty might indicate a variety of mental health disorders, including depression, bipolar disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Only a mental health specialist can accurately identify your illness.
What does the void feel like?
It's not actually emptiness when it comes to nothingness. It still takes up a lot of room. Emptiness' luggage is cumbersome.
Have you ever been in a scenario where you have everything yet feel like something is missing? Even after you've accomplished everything you desired, there's a blank, a gap that needs to be filled, and it feels like a black hole the size of a cliff. Within, it appears to be a forlorn environment. Simply put, you have a hollow feeling.
You're trying to make sense of it all, but you don't seem to be able to because it's all piled up on one big plate. If you're trying to organize your belongings, this mound will crush you. In the midst of such pandemonium, you'll always sink. As a result, you keep things as they are in the hopes that they would miraculously change. However, this is a rare occurrence. So the pile, with all the things you're trying to undo, just explodes like gas particles, and you're left scratching your head, wondering where you went dreadfully wrong.
You come across so many ‘ifs,”maybes,' and ‘loopholes,' that your head starts to spin and the route ahead starts to fade away, and you lose focus. You see nothing but vacuum in a future that should have been as vivid as the sun. On a path you've worked so hard to walk, you've reached a point of saturation. There are times when you get even more perplexed by the events unfolding, leading to impulsive decisions that exacerbate the issue. You begin to drown even more.
The sensation drags out all of your inner might. It makes you feel like a useless tank that has been depleted. It doesn't feel like there's something missing in life, it just feels wrong, it feels uncertain about where life is headed, it's the state you're not ready to be in, and you're not likely to lay aside your intellect.
We frequently feel a sense of loss on the inside. Looking inside, there appears to be nothing, so we surround ourselves with whatever we can find outside, such as food or amusement. Even these external distractions only momentarily fill the void; they merely divert our attention away from the emptiness. When the distraction is past, the emptiness returns. Emptiness is an emotional state that everyone experiences at some point in their lives, and it is impossible to escape it.
In your thoughts, you can sense the heaviness in your heart and the waves of confusion. If you're feeling empty on the outside but heavy on the inside, get rid of everything that's bothering you – your worries, concerns, expectations, and everything else that's causing you problems. Relax and take a deep breath to clear your mind of the heaviness in your heart.
Instead of straining to link and sound properly all the dispersed feelings, take it easy in your thoughts and focus simply on what you're doing and what you want and need. You recall emotions, but they were overpowered by quiet. It's as though someone omitted a piece and then discarded it. You're still looking, but you haven't come up with a solution. That happens to you from time to time.
There may be moments when we feel empty for an extended period of time. Self-love, on the other hand, leads to happiness rather than despair by working toward healing and giving life meaning and purpose.
First and foremost, in order to truly comprehend this sense of loss, you must seek out the source. Examine and articulate exactly what makes you feel the way you do. Is it as a result of the death of a loved one? Is it a heartbreak? Is there a tragic experience from your childhood? Or perhaps some traumatic memories. Make a list of precise reasons why you're feeling hollow and start writing them down. So, in a sense, you'll be spending time with your inner self.
You must name all of your bad feelings in order to alleviate yourself and face your suffering rather than trying to avoid it. Trying to push it away will simply make you feel empty and will lead to severe consequences over time. It can be quite difficult, but as you become more aware of your emotions and allow yourself to feel them, you will find it much easier to deal with them. Take the time you need to heal from your pain by feeling it rather than judging yourself. Compassion, love, and concern for yourself and others will fill the emptiness.
You may feel a hole as you grow older because you haven't received the love you deserve, prompting you to seek it from someone else. When you lack self-love, others will feel empty and disconnected from your soul.
Fill in the gaps by striving unconditionally to love yourself rather than relying on others to do it. You won't be able to rely on it once you start finding love in yourself.
To stop feeling empty, start analyzing why you're feeling that way and give yourself permission to feel those feelings. From there, you'll begin to recover. Self-healing is the source of all healing. You can't make up for the emptiness with other people or material goods. However, while healing may appear to be slow, it will improve over time! Untangling and healing our emotional baggage and scars from the past takes time.
However, while ‘having a void' has a bad connotation, it also has a beneficial aspect in that it can assist you in drilling down into your inner consciousness, purpose, and anything else that may be weighing you down. Though learning to manage with emotional suffering can be difficult, once you can, it will free you from feeling empty and connect you to much greater and valuable experiences.
What happens at the end of the void?
Daniel and the villainous Dr. Powell are both thrown into the nothingness. Kim and the Son are the only ones who survive. Inside the void, Daniel is reunited with his wife, Allison.
The film begins with a man named James fleeing into the woods from a house with a triangle emblem on the door. He is followed by his mature, silent Son and his Father (Daniel Fathers) (Mik Byskov). James manages to flee and collapses in front of a police cruiser operated by Daniel, a local officer (Aaron Poole). Daniel transports James, who is unconscious, to a hospital that is about to close. As a result, Dr. Powell (Kenneth Welsh), Daniel's wife Allison (Kathleen Munroe), an intern called Kim (Ellen Wong), and another nurse are the only people working at the hospital. In the hospital, there is just one bedridden patient and a grandfather with his pregnant granddaughter, Maggie. Later, they are joined by a state trooper on the lookout for James.
Daniel and Allison recently lost their kid, and he is having marital problems. Daniel hears a noise in the bed-ridden patient's room and enters to find the nurse slashing the patient to death and removing her skin while avoiding his wife. Before attacking Daniel, she cries that something is wrong with her (who shoots her dead). When Daniel steps outside to radio a report to dispatch, he is confronted by a group of robed and hooded people who have encircled the hospital. Things start to become strange when they hear horns in the distance and all communication gadgets are turned off.
What are the stages of spiritual awakening?
The hero's journey, an evolutionary process of growth and transformation woven into all great myths and stories, was outlined by renowned mythologist Joseph Campbell: “A genuinely heroic shift of awareness occurs when we stop worrying about ourselves and our own self-preservation.”
The primary pushing off point for any hero's quest is known as the call to adventure. The call to adventure is a break from regular life, a signal that comes from deep inside, grabs your attention, and drives you in a new direction. The spark that sets off a spiritual awakening is a call to adventure. Every life has a moment that, if grasped, will change it forever. The call to adventure is a reawakening experience, a shift in perspective that forces you to reconsider your perspective on life. A travel to a strange location, the loss of innocence, an illness, a challenge, the death of a close friend, a near-death experience, or the loss of a job are all examples of spiritual experiences. Regardless of the specifics, the experience alters your perspective and causes you to see the world through fresh eyes. You've been given the task of living an ordinary life in an extraordinary way.
At this critical juncture, Joseph Campbell advises that you must choose whether or not to accept the call to adventure. In truth, though, ignoring the call isn't an option because your soul is inviting you to change on a deeper level. If you ignore the call, the opportunity will recycle itself like a skip on a record, patiently waiting for you to embrace the call to a new existence, thanks to your unique karmic influences. Furthermore, there is no going back once a transforming and deeply waking incident has occurred. Your eyes have been opened, and no matter how much you try to reject it, you can't turn away from the image of a greater reality calling to you.
You enter a broader universe once you've answered the call to adventure. You take an active role in your spiritual development and advancement. As you begin to manage your life toward chances that enhance your knowledge, responsibility becomes the operative word. Everything feels the same and weirdly different at the same time, thanks to a tiny alteration in perspective.
What is the hermit phase of awakening?
According to Kundalini Diaries, the hermit phase is a period of life during which we may feel as if everything in our lives is falling apart; we may lose relationships, jobs, and what appears to be the majority of the things we formerly loved and knew so well. It's a period that can be frightful, intimidating, and completely perplexing.
Why is there a void in my life?
People are all creative and full of potential, but not everyone takes advantage of it, making them feel as if they are squandering their time and energy. The majority of them express a sense of emptiness. We try to fill the emptiness with food, relationships, job, and other activities that are designed to keep our attention diverted.
An unfulfilling career, a lack of close friendships, a destructive relationship, or a simple lack of self-love and compassion can all contribute to feelings of emptiness. Regardless of the cause, emptiness can be overcome if you're ready to make some significant modifications to your daily routine and cognitive processes.
