I mean what is the nature of existence. Is it made of quarks that make up atoms and so quarks are the defining substance of existence?
Independent existence is what exists by virtue of itself having that characteristic of being able to exist independently without anything causing it.
Do you believe quarks are such things? Or not?
What is your opinion on what is the true nature of existence and what has independent existence.
I'm not asking you to make a claim of knowledge. I'm asking what you think it is and why?
My next question is towards your " I don't know what the true nature of existence is".
How did you come to that conclusion? What makes you think you don't know this?
