There is a cup in front of you. When drinking water, it is a water cup; when holding ash, it becomes an ashtray; when arranging flowers, it turns into a vase. The cup itself is nothing — this is emptiness. Whatever you use it for, it becomes that, and this is called wonderful utility.
But if you insist that "it must be a cup," this is called attachment to form. To defend this view, you start arguing and debating with others, which is called clinging to ego. During the argument, emotions and insults arise, which is called affliction. Ultimately, you develop dislike for that person, which is called prejudice.
The same logic applies to investing. Many people in trading are doing the act of "insisting that a cup is a cup." When Bitcoin rises, they stubbornly look for declines; when Ethereum falls, they insist on chasing lows, trying to prove their judgment is correct. And what’s the result? Going against the market, against their own accounts, against their investment goals.
Think again — in fact, there are no others in this world, only yourself. As long as you are here, the world exists; when you leave, the world disappears. Those entanglements, attachments, and desires to control are nothing but your inner dialogue with yourself.
So that saying makes sense: Originally, there is nothing at all; where can dust settle? Let go of the obsession with "being right," and the market becomes clear.
