The concept
Spinoza argued that God and Nature are one substance expressed through infinite attributes — of which humans perceive only two: thought and extension. The Vedantic tradition arrived at the same conclusion from the opposite direction: Brahman manifests as the apparent multiplicity of the world. This design maps the two frameworks onto each other, finding the same geometry in European rationalism and South Asian non-dualism. The central void is the same void in both traditions.
