Note 48

Dharma as general equilibrium over states of the world. Dharma can punish, and it can bring abundance. But it is essentially pragmatic, not ideal in character. There is no absolute dharma.

Does form imply essence?

The objects of a frame are given within a frame, but are not implied within it. Frame is form, so the constellation of frames, or a particular arrangement of the relationships between frames, defines the context. The object itself, and the verbs, adjectives etc. are then use: the particularities to cohere and orientate the relations within a context.

A universal description of anything is by definition self-referential and paradoxical. Hence it is not representation, or cannot be said.
