Formlessness as Change

Post by Eodnhoj7 »

Void is synonymous to the formlessness of a phenomenon. This formlessness is the means of change from one phenomenon into another.

An example of this can be seen in the observation of a bird in a tree. The bird exists as distinctly within the tree as a contrast to the tree. In observing the bird one is observing the tree it is in by default. The bird, through its distinction, acts as a means of change from one set of relations which form the bird (wings, beaks, etc.) into the set of relations which form the tree (branches, leaves, etc.)

This inversion from one form to another is in itself an absence of form given the form of the bird loses itself into that of the tree and the tree loses itself into that of the bird.

One form Inverts into another form through a formlessness, thus the formlessness of one phenomenon acts as the means of change into another through an emergence. This emergence is the appearance of one phenomenon amidst many.

With the progressive change of one phenomenon to another comes a resulting absence of form in the previous phenomenon. A change occurs where the once distinct phenomena dissolved into another distinct phenomena, thus with the clarity of one phenomenon comes the ambiguity of another. Applying this to abstract shapes results in the same dualism of clarity and ambiguity. In observing a square as a whole each line morphs into a singular shape while looking at each line individually results in the square morphing into that of a line.

Formlessness thus acts as a means of change from one phenomenon into another. It can be observed both empirically and abstractly, this is considering one form progresses to another form. Change is the common medium amidst phenomena.

This is obviously a well thought out analysis, and I can't help being struck by the way you have made it more thought provoking by presenting it in a form that makes it appear to be complete nonsense. Top marks for originality.

I'll take it as a compliment.
