About
All things are empty — but empty does not mean non-existent. It means nothing exists with svabhāva, with independent self-nature. What appears as substantial and independent is in fact dependently arisen. Including emptiness itself. If emptiness were not empty, it would be a new absolute — which is precisely what I am arguing against. What thing are you treating as if it had inherent existence?
