The space within the pot

 

The space within the pot, is known by its shape & volume and appears to have a separate identity. When the pot breaks, the space within, merges with the space outside, losing its identity.

- The space within, was never spearate from the space outside.
- The identity was apparent, and the it was a superimposed concept, existing only in the minds of the perceived.
- Once the pot breaks, the so-called identity is lost for ever, never to return.
- The separate space within, such an entity was never born, cannot be reborn, and never existed even.
- Even if a similar pot is reconstructed with all the features, the space within can never claim to have the identity of the old pot.
- This is the case of our identity too.
- The entity, the so-called “you” cannot be born, and never be reborn.
- All fanciful concepts of spirituality, progress, rebirth and karma for such an entity have sprouted from ignorance and propagated by religion.
