Here is a comment from another user, on another thread, that you actually agreed with. Way back from last december. "CHIM is, basicly, understanding that the Aurbis is a dream that an unconscious entity called the "Godhead" dreams. The person who attempts CHIM must understand this but also needs to maintain somekind of "individuality", because understand that the Aurbis is a dream also means that everything is the Godhead and that individuality doesn't exist. If the person fails in maintaining this individuality, they zero sum. Zero Sum is total 'deletion' from the Godheads dream; a person who zero sums completely disappears and won't appear again in any kalpa which comes. It's actually much more complex then what I described.

CHIM makes the person who achieves it one of the most powerful entitys in the Godheads dream, because they basicly begin to "lucid dream". They can change the dream as they want. For example, Tiber Septim was also a person who achieved CHIM and he 'CHIM'd' Cyrodiils jungle away and made it look like it does in Oblivion. Changing the Godhead's dream also bears a risk to it: If you change too much, the Godhead will wake up and the Kalpa resets."

It perfectly sums up EVERYTHING.
