A change can't be form?
SR: Change, yeah. Changing—moment after moment it changes. But even for a while you can see some form—you can observe things in its particular form. That is form. But it exists in the smallest particle of time. Next particle of time it will be some other thing. But in each moment it exists. That is also true. So form is emptiness, emptiness is form.
