"[The term] 'avastuni' [means] when there is no real entity serving as a substratum; since cognition without an object is impossible, there can be no cognition that could produce impressions - hence how could there be any impression? And when there is no impression, how could the diversity or positive nature of Apohas arise from impressions?"
