Description:
Nagarjuna's philosophy deconstructs the idea of fixed essences and inherent identities, arguing that all phenomena are "empty" (sunyata) and exist only through dependent origination. His works—primarily the Mulamadhyamakakarika—challenge metaphysical dogmas and explore how this lack of absolute reality enables change and interconnectedness.
