Chapter11The Use of What Has No Substantive Existence

The thirty spokes unite in the one nave; but it is on the empty space for the axle, that the use of the wheel depends. 2Clay is fashioned into vessels; but it is on their empty hollowness, that their use depends. 3The door and windows are cut out from the walls to form an apartment; but it is on the empty space, that its use depends.
