What does "emptiness is form, form is emptiness" mean? What is the allusion?
Form is emptiness, emptiness is form - these are the two most widely publicized slogans in Buddhism. Everyone knows it, but not everyone can understand it. Now let's illustrate this theory using atomic nuclei. The study of atomic nuclei has made significant progress in the past decade or so, leading to the invention of atomic energy and the atomic bomb. The mass of an atom is concentrated in the nucleus. The mass of an electron is only one thousand eight hundred and forty times that of the nucleus. It was only with the invention of the atomic bomb that matter could be transformed into abilities. According to the old theory of physics, there are two important laws: one is the law of immortality of matter, and the other is the law of immortality of ability. Matter and energy are two families, eternal and immortal. This concept is contrary to Buddhism. Because Buddhism says that all things are impermanent, now this law that violates Buddhist law has been denied, and matter and ability have become one family. Matter is what the Buddhist scriptures call color, and it has the ability to change from matter to non-matter. If it is not the essence of matter, is it empty? Let’s look at what happens after it becomes an ability. After the atomic bomb exploded over Hiroshima, this small amount of uranium became the ability to work, turning the creatures in Hiroshima into dead objects and turning a building into countless dust particles. Move a large boulder from the east to the west. Simply put, life becomes death, one becomes many, east becomes west. To put it simply, it is a changed concept. Looking up the definition of ability in physics, it turns out that it is the product of force and distance. Force is the manifestation of the action of an object. Movement is a concept that combines space and time. Time is a concept that arises from the actions of objects. The so-called time, motivation, etc. mentioned above are all dependent on each other. None of them is independent and real and can be shown to others. But why is space the color? The ability of matter to become non-material is color or emptiness, then the ability of non-material to become material is emptiness or color. Now the British scientific community has conclusive proof that ability can be turned into matter, but from which ability to which kind of matter and which method and steps are used, it is still unknown. It may be possible in the future to create from sunlight (light is one form of power) food, clothing, and gold that is the joy of everyone. Or using the hydraulic power of the Yangtze River, or even the ability of the earth to rotate, or the potential energy of the earth relative to the sun, there is no reason why it is impossible. I have said this and cannot go any further, for fear that others will suspect me of talking nonsense. But these are all theories derived from scientific experiments. That is to say, if you don’t believe in Buddhism, don’t you think even science can be trusted? If science is credible, then there is no reason why it is not credible that the Lotus Sutra says that a pagoda of many treasures emerged from the earth with a height of five hundred leagues (one league is equal to forty miles), and hundreds of thousands of billions of bodhisattvas emerged from it. Because emptiness is color, all matter can appear from nothingness according to circumstances. The color I used as an example of the ability of matter to become immaterial is the meaning of emptiness. I am afraid that some people may misunderstand the change and cessation of phenomena as the cessation of noumenon. We must realize that the destruction of matter is only the cessation of phenomena, and noumenon is immortal, because At the same time as matter is destroyed, ability is created. Once it is destroyed, it is only transformed. Therefore, death is not true death, and birth is not true birth. Because matter can be transformed into non-matter, it must not have a fixed entity, nor can it be said that it has no entity. Therefore, the Buddha said that the essence of matter is empty. That emptiness does not mean nothing, but means that the essence cannot be described by words and words. It can cope with all changes freely and flexibly, without any restriction, damage or pollution, but it cannot be affected by the sixth consciousness (that is, people's ideology) What is known can only be observed with wisdom. Therefore, this ontology is not "unknowable" as the philosopher Kant said. But knowable. This slogan that form is emptiness has always been considered unscientific and therefore not easy to be accepted by people. This is the reason why I want to use the example of material destruction to illustrate that it is consistent with modern science.
