What Empty means for Buddhists: Emptiness is form, Form is emptiness

In Mahāyāna Buddhism, "emptiness" śūnyatā refers to the concept that everything is “empty” of independent substance - - in other words, things (including events and people) are interdependent.


This approach invites us to go beyond the illusions of our perceptions.We now see the world as a web of relationships, instead of objects and beings that exist independently of anything else. We see processes, instead of things that don’t change.

I'm glad this sub is way more positive and pro-Bernie (and less bash-Hillary).

That sub is toxic with their hate for Bernie!

I have that group in my trash can, but got curious when I read your post. Holy crap! That's some serious lunacy going on over there. It's one post away from creating a new truther movement.

I simply wish when a ridiculous label like this is floated there would at least be some rhetorical substance, even if it is wrong, behind it. Then, at least, there can be discourse instead of name calling and eye-rolling.
