“To put it simply, awakening is the realization that the content of both subject and object is empty and one, and that this empty-oneness is none other than the constantly changing phenomenal world of form. That is to say, actual existence is in one aspect totally empty, and in another is the phenomenal world of form that ceaselessly appears and disappears in accordance with the law of causation.”
