Śūnyatā: Nothing Empty About Emptiness
<p>One of the central notions in Buddhism is <em>śūnyatā, </em>which is often translated as<em> emptiness </em>or <em>void(ness). </em>It, like all other religious concepts, has many meanings and definitions depending on the doctrine in which it is included and the way it is interpreted. But the most central essence of this notion is that fundamentally, existence is empty, and all forms arise from it as illusions with no inherent, substantial reality of their own.</p>
<p>This may sound very pessimistic, nihilistic or reductionistic to the unfamiliar ear, but it is actually far from such notions.</p>
