It is also a distinct entity like earth, water, etc. If Akasa be a non-entity, then the entire world would become destitute of space. Hence Akasa is a real thing. If everything is momentary the experiencer of something must also be momentary. But the experiencer is not momentary because people have the memory of past experiences.
Memory can take place in a man who has previously experienced it.
He is connected with at least two moments. This certainly refutes the theory of momentariness. A non-entity has not been observed to produce entity. Therefore it does not stand to reason to suppose non-entity to be the cause. The world which is a reality is stated by the Buddhists to have arisen out of non-entity.
