為什麼《心經》說「色『即是』空」？「即是」在這裡，是什麼意思？

（安：暫時也不是很明白。除了說「即是」之外，《心經》還說「不異」：「色不異空，空不異色」。

首先要問，「色」和「空」是不是，同一個意思？

如果不是同一個意思，它們有什麼分別？（「色即是空」這句話是錯誤的。）

如果是同一個意思，《心經》為什麼要，講多一次？（「色即是空」這句話是多餘的。））

.

《心經》說「色『即是』空」，意思是：

我們如何可以，觀察到「本體」呢？

唯有透過「現象」。

「本體」是不能直接，被觀察到的，因為我們不能，『直接看到』「本體」。我們只能透過「現象」，去觀察「本體」。「透過『現象』去觀察『本體』」是「觀察『本體』」的唯一方法。

正如，一隻杯的「本身」是不能直接，被觀察到的，因為我並不能一次過，觀察到那隻杯的「整體」。我每次所看到的，只是那隻杯的某個角度，投射在我視網膜上的，平面影像。在任何一個角度，觀察到的「影像」，都只是其中一個「投影」。任何一個「投影」，都不是那隻杯「本身」。但是，我們除了靠，那隻杯的「影像」外，並沒有任何方法可以，觀察到杯的「本身」。所以，「透過『投影』去觀察『杯本身』」，是「觀察『杯本身』」的唯一方法。

.

「色即是空，空即是色」的意思是，雖然「現象」和「本體」是不同的東西，但是，要觀察「本體」，我們只能透過「現象」。正如，雖然「杯的影像」和「杯本身」是不同的東西，但是，要觀察「杯本身」，我們只能透過「杯的影像」。

「色即是空，空即是色」中的「即是」，是指當我們說

「我的眼睛接收到，一隻『杯』的『影像』。」時，意思即是

「我看到一隻『杯』。」；

而當我們說

「我看到一隻『杯』。」時，意思又即是

「我的眼睛接收到，一隻『杯』的『影像』。」

Mainland China and Taiwan

The People’s Republic of China (PRC) and the Republic of China (ROC) do not recognise each other as sovereign states. They both claim themselves as the only legal government representing the whole China.

Consistent with the 1992 Consensus, the PRC and ROC legally consider both citizens in mainland China and Taiwan as their own citizens, but residing in different areas of the same nation. Neither the PRC nor the ROC accepts passports issued by the other as entry documents.

Citizens in Taiwan use identity documents issued by PRC public-security authorities to enter mainland China. Citizens in mainland China entering Taiwan must also use identity documents issued by the ROC authority, and have their mainland documents surrendered. The identity documents cannot be used for international travel, and an endorsement must be obtained separately to enable travel.

The ROC used to require its citizens who intended travel to mainland China to obtain official approval for the travel, and prescribed an administrative fine of NT$20,000 to NT$100,000 for those who did not. However, the fine was often unenforceable because such travel was untraceable by examination of travel documents, except if an ROC citizen lost his ROC passport while on the mainland, and, so, had to report the loss. The official-approval requirement was abolished, except in relation to ROC officials, of whom applications are required.
