The monk, who is asking the Master, "What is reality, what is reality," and the Master said go pick a fig. And he picked a fig off a tree and the Master said, "open the fig" and the monk did. And the Master said, "Cut open the seed" and he cut open the seed and he said, "what do you see?" And the monk said, "Emptiness," and the Master said, "that's true, everything comes from emptiness," because in the fig seed there is a hollow, there is nothing. So out of the nothingness came the fig tree and so has everything else.
