1.2 Demonstration that this refutes things being in the process of contact

2. Confirmation by Citations from Definitive SÅ«tras

3. Summary of the Chapter and Its Name

We are still in the second part of the second major section of the text—that on the two selflessnesses—the demonstration that mere phenomena are essentially empty. We have completed the first part of that section: the refutation of the essential existence of things. [262:7] We now begin the second of those two parts: the refutation of the argument for the essential existence of things. This part has three sections: the refutation of the essential existence of contact, the refutation of the essential existence of appropriation of causes and conditions, and the refutation of the essential existence of bondage and liberation. This chapter is the first of those three parts. It has three sections: the explanation of the chapter, the confirmation by citations from definitive sūtras, and the summary of the chapter and its name.
