i think emptiness means: things exist but Things don’t exist. like: good and evil exist but Good and Evil don’t. god exists but God doesn’t. problems exist but Problems don’t. selves exist but Selves don’t. meditation is about seeing through Things to investigate things

there are path dependencies here. it matters what order you see through the emptiness of various Things and at what times. the wrong order and times might cause you to blow up your life. someThing you need to see through may be extremely load-bearing for someone else
