Doe Quote by Eckhart Tolle
“Space has no "existence." "To exist" literally means "to stand out." You cannot understand space because it doesn't stand out. Although in itself it has no existence, it enables everything else to exist. Silence has no existence either, nor does the unmanifested.”
About This Quote
Source Book: A New Earth, Eckhart Tolle, 2005
Space is a backdrop that lacks distinct form, yet it makes all other things possible; existence is defined by standing out, not by emptiness.
In simple terms: Space is empty but enables everything.
