There is no self-sufficiency in the Universe of Meaning and there never has been. Meaning was born from the Meaninglessness and needs the meaningless to define its meaning. The Universe itself needs the Void for us to be able to understand it through the capacity to situate it in a particular place (i.e., within the Void).
This lack of self-sufficiency has existed since the primordial beginnings of everything. The inanimate universe needed consciousness to make it known and, through being known, to exist. Consciousness needs the space and time, provided by the Universe to exist in. Everything is embedded with necessity.
