Mori Dan's Nonexistent Physiology

Maybe we will start this thread with an explanation of some of the dualities that exist in GoH verse, one of the dualities that exist in GoH verse is taichi-wuchi Which makes GoH's World.

"wuchi" aka "wuji" in Chinese philosophy describes the nothingness that existed before yin-yang. so i think wuji is like a primordial void that existed before concept.

then there are mori who reach the state of a god who has forcibly severed all ties with reality, and has become free from the law of nature. means that all ties to duality will also be severed including wuchi which is nothingness or nonexistent, also all existence in reality.

so mori here is nondual to nonexistence and existence (0 and 1) meaning that mori is not between 0 and 1 and qualifies to idealistic nonexistence or nonexistent physiology (Nature Type 2).

for the aspect maybe 1,2,3,4 because mori is lack of core element (mori was severed his ties with reality thats why he is lack of core element) which include metaphysical and fundamental aspects

Agree:

There was a thread about NEP before. Are these arguments different than before?

Also you didn't include any tags. Most importantly "The God Of High School" tag. So GoH supporters will struggle to find this.

its different, and okay i will include the tags hehe
 
I can't accept this, because there are still a few things I have to question.

First, you brought up Wuji which is nothingness that exists before the world, and the world is duality/Yin yang, which means yin yang itself is the first duality to create the world and which will branch into other dualities.

However, in the previous paragraph in feats where Mujin mentioned duality things such as yin yang, etc., he also mentioned Wuji and taiji, which implies that taiji Wuji here is a duality, then in State is also about Empitess and Annilation, so how can there be two nothingnesses? (empitess is almost the same as nothingness, because they both describe things that don't exist)

So how can we use the Wuji scaling which is the nothingness before the world/Duality (yin yang), while the Wuji taiji becomes duality too.

Especially in the feats which are about the dualities that create the world of TGOH, it's not just yin yang, which means yin yang is not the basis of the duality that creates the world, and branches out into many dualities, but there are other dualities along with yin yang that create the world, so it would be a contradiction to the philosophy that you brought up the yin yang world.

Can you help provide input or response to this thread? @Antvasima @Maitreya12
 
You are confusing emptiness with something that is not at all how it is known to be.

Emptiness means that an object or person has no self-arising, permanent quality. It arises in dependence on other factors and, ultimately, it cannot completely be defined or found at its deepest level, for ultimately, all matter is potential, the very definition of buddha-nature.

The common example is to look at the self. What is self? Is your body you? How much of your body can be removed before you are not you? Your hand? Your heart? Your brain? There is no exact thing that can be said is you. Your brain interprets and triggers thoughts and actions, but it is a lump of neurons. How many of these neurons can be removed before you are not you?

The self is an excellent example of emptiness. It is conceptual and dependent on someone to be perceived and someone to perceive it. This is the basis of relative truths in samsara.

But, ultimately, through experience in meditation, we can experience phenomena without something other. What do we call that? No thing and yet it exists. That’s emptiness. It is not nihilistic. No one denies you are you, just what makes you you.

Emptiness is the basis of everything (like zero for mathematics) because all concepts and phenomena are devoid of reality as they are the products of changeable conditions and perceptions.

Everything we can see can be broken down into smaller and smaller parts, until we get to subatomic particles whose existence is based on potential probability. Yet it is exactly that nature of reality that allows for everything, every kind of object and experience.

It is the belief that our limited perception is an accurate representation of the world that is the root of suffering, but these perceptions are just mental constructs empty of intrinsic value.

In samsara, no two people experience any phenomena exactly the same. It is exactly this limited perception that Buddhists try to broaden, to deepen one’s awareness of perception in order to “see” things as they truly are.

We are fixated on our “own” emotions and physical changes, all the while insisting on our own essential “me-ness”. “What a paradox!” Until we understand that Form is Emptiness and Emptiness is form, it will be difficult to let go of this permanent concept of “Self and Other”. When we see the true nature of reality, devoid of self and other, we experience the non-dualistic emptiness of buddha-nature.

Emptiness is not nothing, it is everything.

I brought philosophy because you brought one of your own. Sorry.
