Imagine that you are watching a chameleon change colors. At first glance, you might see the chameleon as a solid, permanent object with a clear form and identity. However, if you were to closely observe the chameleon, you would realize that it is not a static, permanent object. The chameleon is constantly changing its colors to blend in with its environment or to express certain emotions. It is dependent on various factors such as light, temperature, and mood to change its colors.

If you were to examine the chameleon more closely, you would find that there is no inherent self-nature or essence to the chameleon. It is only a collection of parts that are dependent on various conditions for its existence. Moreover, the chameleons changes are not random or arbitrary; they are conditioned by its environment and various other factors.

This recognition of emptiness can help us to understand that everything is dependent on conditions and is therefore impermanent and devoid of inherent existence. By recognizing the interdependence and impermanence of all phenomena, including ourselves, we can let go of our attachment to fixed ideas and identities. This can lead to greater wisdom, compassion, and freedom in our lives.
