relatively speaking

 





.


 
Relatively speaking, everything in our world and experience appears and exists. Absolutely speaking, those same entities are not what they seem to be.

The solidity of these objects begins to fall apart when we examine them more closely, whether we use the logical reasoning of analytical meditation or the empirical methods of science as the basis of our investigation. That is, our perception of them is transformed through a stage-by-stage process that breaks down the object into different, smaller and smaller parts, and then into nothing at all.
