The general approach over sunyata is mistaken; the people use to believe amongst else that sunyata is “illusion/ nothingness” -but in fact this is false.

These potentialities are activated the way we perceive them in this world of ours by means of the function of cognizance, and this is the mechanism that turns them into reality.
