The perplexing question is how can one who ultimately is nothingness perceive oneself as nothingness? “Nothing comes from nothing. Nothing ever could,” as a song goes. Nothingness cannot thus perceive nothingness! One may also want to ask whether the argument of nothingness which is ultimate and absolute would go against the belief that absolutely nothing is absolute. One would also be wondering whether absolutism is extremism. If that should be the case, one would be wondering further whether extremism is against the Middle Path. The Middle Path is the practice of moderation which is a modus operandi to achieve a goal. It is a process of moderation which would enable one to become more sanguine about success. But if the goal is absolute and ultimate, would it be contradictory that the Middle Path or moderation is employed to achieve absoluteness which is nothingness or anata or anatman? The Middle Path is thus a means to achieve an end of absolutism. How can one reconcile this internal contradiction will be a perplexing question. These are the issues or questions which need to be elaborated and explicated by Buddhist scholars who have a keener mind than that of the present writer who has been a Buddhist since a young age and used to ordain as a monk with son and grandson also used to ordain in the Buddhist order for a period of time. The questions raised are part of the process of trying to understand the teachings of the great Sage by following his instructions of enquiry in accordance with the eight items of Kalama Sutta.
