The Essentials of Buddhist Philosophy, p45-46To see the true nature or the true state of all things is not to find one in many or one before many, nor is it to distinguish unity from diversity or the static from the dynamic. The true state is the state without any special condition. It is, in fact, ‘the true reality without a reality,’ i.e., without any specific character or nature. It is very difficult for the human mind to understand this idea of a reality in which there is no ‘sub-stance’ at all.
