                          In the Heart Sutra, Avalokiteshvara says to Sariputra

> this Body itself is Emptiness and Emptiness itself is this Body. This
> Body is not other than Emptiness and Emptiness is not other than this
> Body. (translation by Thich Nhat Hanh)

What does it mean to say that Body itself is Emptiness and Emptiness itself is this Body?
