"Because the absolute in the true mode of reality is not empty of itself and is the ground empty of all relative phenomena, it is a profound emptiness of other, the mode of emptiness of the true nature. It is an emptiness that is not a nonimplicative negation, an emptiness that is not empty, a birthless emptiness, and an emptiness that is the very essence of the lack of an entity, far removed from the emptiness of the aggregates through analysis, which is a nihilistic emptiness. Because the relative in the true mode of reality is empty of own-essence, it is like the horn of a rabbit, the child of a barren woman, a skyflower, and so forth, totally unestablished and completely nonexistent, a nonimplicative negation, an empty emptiness, a born emptiness, an emptiness of nonentity, and the emptiness of the aggregates through analysis, which is a nihilistic emptiness."
