Arupa

From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki

Arūpa (Devanagari: अरूप) means formless.[1][2] It is the antonym for rūpa, and refers to immaterial (non-matter) existence/objects. In Hinduism it describes Atman/Brahman, etc., and is used in mind-only school & dualist but not necessarily materialist Buddhism.

Comparisons[edit]

Ether (akasha in Sanskrit) is somewhat arūpa, while classical elements are more rupa.[3]
