Significance of Substantiality
Substantiality, in Tibetan Buddhism, signifies the quality of possessing a real and tangible existence. However, it emphasizes that names and words lack this quality. In contrast, the Purana illustrates Substantiality as the characteristic of being substantial or real, focusing on humans' perception of their surroundings. Both perspectives highlight the intricate nature of existence and our understanding of reality, emphasizing a distinction between the material world and the linguistic representations of that world.
