27. Distinguishing the Form and the Nothingness  

In the universe, all things are manifest in form, yet within this form lies the nothingness, transforming subtly.

Each form is itself a structure composed of cells. These cells coalesce through the forces of the Five Elements, which themselves transform under Yin and Yang and this Yin-Yang motion is governed by the currents of Emptiness. Thus, in every body — be it material, plant, beast, or human — existence is shaped by the transformations of the Emptiness currents.

Hence, each tangible form owes its existence to the boundless power of the Subpreme Ultimate energy that shapes it. The cells themselves are luminous seeds of Yin-Yang energy.

Within each cell, the Yin seed and the Yang seed circulate in constant motion. Depending on the proportion of Yin seeds, the clarity of the luminous mass is revealed to varying degrees. Where Yin predominates, the mass becomes heavy and dense.

On the other hand, the formless aspect is merely the transformation of the Dual Principles; therefore, it cannot be considered a tangible form within the universe.

Thus, the nothingness is the principle of transformation, while the form is the process of change. The two aspects are form and shadow; once the form disappears, the cells dissolve, and the Dual-Principle energy returns to Emptiness — ascending to the Higher Realm.

Those who are guilty, suffering in endless cycles, or must reincarnate, are so because when their cells dissolve, Yin and Yang seeds intermingle inseparably, preventing the Dual-Principle energy in the body from uniting with the Dual-Principle energy of the Emptiness currents. Hence, they must continue to reincarnate until the cells are fully separated into Yin and Yang.

Thus, within the form lies the movement of nothingness; while the formless consists solely of electric-luminous energy.
