i like to think the abyss is humanity with each human life having its own unique darkness and ignorance tracing a path a contour of experience in time along the edge of the abyss of the unknown and the sum total of all those path lines of every human that ever lived and ever will trace the surface of an unexplored shape and within that shape is all the ways we did not choose to experience being ignorant of ourselves and that is probably not a bad definition of humanity or our particular sapience if you think about it. we are the abyss.
edit to add this is fun model because of limited perception of time the part is not the totality or is it we don't know and the existence is defined by the negation of separation. fun because this same model extends at multiple levels, first between each human as individuals hmm are we all one soul, and second if we can move beyond that a little but still in the material universe between humanity and nhi hmm are we all one sentience, perhaps galaxy to galaxy too, hierarchies of unity neverending. don't know if that makes sense but it does sound less boring that drifting through darkness alone.
