Form and Emptiness

The Heart Sutra explains this, as far as I am concerned. "Form is
emptiness and emptiness is form" means to me that without the space
(s) in everything, there could be no form. Lucretius stated this
very well in "On the Nature of Things." Lucretius is well worth our
study, and one of his purposes was to prove that gods, as we
understand them in an anthropomorphic sense, are unnecessary. Often
I meditate upon the mantra "All dharmas are empty" and feel good that
this is really so. SPACE is truly our highest conception of
divinity, as HPB indicated in the SD.
