Each individual's and living being's DNA is different, unique and exclusive. How could it be the essence of human being? It would be registering in on...

Again the uniqueness and self contained exclusion of each DNA can be problem for being universal essence. The name "being-one-self-ness" seems totally...

How can one reach to essence, when the essence is not define-able?
September 23, 2021 at 10:55
If you could, then the rest course of the investigation and conclusion would be more straight forward.
September 23, 2021 at 10:22
What is your definition of "essence" and essence of something? For instance, if I ask you, what is the essence of human being, then what would it be?

All beings is contingent. They may exist now, but they might not exist tomorrow, or any moment. That is what existence means.
