That the world is an insignificant dream about individualism, exile, death, separation and other assorted non-sense. It cannot change what the dreamer actually is: Christ.
Is it nihilism to "lay down your *life* that you may take it up again"? Yes, according to this definition:
6. annihilation of the self, or the individual consciousness, esp. as an aspect of mystical experience.
It is the individual consciousness that "dies", over and over again within an insignificant dream. It is the totalilty that lives. To live, you must be whole and total. So, let the pseudo-autonomous "self" go [ie. "die" from your awareness/focus/attention]
This world is totally insignificant except that it answers a question about Self...illustrating what Self is not. It has rules and institutions that teach Self is guilty, sinful and worthy of punishment and even death.
Is is nihilistic to reject all such "laws"? Perhaps, according to this definition:
1. total rejection of established laws and institutions.
But to revolt in terms of terrorism or even activism is to lend reality to what is really not real. So by this definition, I am not nihilistic:
2. anarchy, terrorism, or other revolutionary activity.
In a world where there is no basis for truth, merely to tell the truth is revolutionary.
