In the Diamond Sutra Buddha said, "When I attained complete perfect and unexcelled awakening, I attained nothing at all." And you see that nothing at all is the same nothing into which all trees and plants and bodies and butterflies and birds are disappearing in the course of endless transformations. Everything disappears into nothing at all, but out of that same nothing at all come all the new things, forever and ever.
— Alan Watts, Zen and the Beat Way
