Laying waste to ones presuppositions, the previously significant notions of reality fall short, with good and bad fading into void, discord and harmony representing two aspects of the same whole, defilement and purity defining each other, long and short establishing a mere reference point, birth and death melding together into a single continuation, being and non-being founding the characteristics upon which existence stands, until all that remains is the permeating understanding of emptiness, for all other concepts are manifestations of a false comprehension of a misinformed actuality, while the indubitably consistent aspects of interconnectivity seem to encapsulate the entirety of the cosmos.
