 7th state: “The mind of one who realizes non-origination” (kakushin fushō-shin): The state of Madhyamaka with its śūnyavāda (Jpn: kūgan) standpoint that everything is empty. Here reifying and substantializing conceptions – including both objects and mind – that act as fetters are eliminated through Nāgārjuna’s eight-fold negations which via their dependent origination show their emptiness.
