Lian Dao, I think one difference between you and me might be that you (and your tradition) might claim to know that this "what" does not "really" exist.

I don't know in what manner this "what" might be said to exist or not.

I know that some say if a "what" claims it does not exist, that "what" is in denial.

I would not dare to say that I think that statement is true, or to say that is false.

If I did, I might, as ZZ says, "double injure" myself.

love,rat
