Here is a brief 5 minute talk with Lawrence Krauss about the physical possibility of something coming from nothing.

Of course it's difficult to cover the subject in such a short time, but note that matter and anti matter 'particles' appear from nothing. 1:08.

What happens to "nothing" if it is discovered how this happens?

Isn't nothing always relative to something?

Can nothing be defined by physical properties or even mathematics which may include an absurdity?

This sounds like something Alan Watts would say. Something and nothing are distinct but of the same essence.... or something like that.

Taking the eastern approach?
