Our scientists tell us that atoms are 99.999999 percent emptiness. Now, in order to get a closer understanding of how empty this actually is, we will discuss this as follows...
This 99.999999% emptiness means that only one item out of 100,000,000 items is visible! Let's say, we have One Hundred Million tiny balls and we put them in a special glass container that is one meter long by one meter wide and 10 centimeters high. Now, from these One Hundred Million tiny balls "Only One" would be visible...
Let's use the tiny ball that sits on the end of your ball-point pen. That tiny ball is, let's say, 1 millimeter (1 mm). We are going to put 100 Million of them in this special glass container. This container is 1 meter x 1 meter x 0.1 meter high. In millimeters this is 1000 x 1000 x 100. This makes up 100 million cubic millimeters. How nice...
Are you ready? We are going to put these tiny balls in rows of 1000 on the bottom of this glass container. This adds up to One Million of them on the bottom. We need 100 Million tiny balls, so we fit 100 more layers on top of each other in order to get all these 100 Millions tiny balls in this container...
Now, out of these 100,000,000 tiny balls - ONLY ONE - is visible (Let's hope that that is the one on the end of your pen). So, one tiny ball equals the 'space' occupied by one atom since all the rest of the atom is emptiness. The big question is - how could anything that is so empty - be that solid when we look at it? Conclusion: the matter world is a perfect illusion and whatever we see out there - is emptiness dancing...

Another way to understand how little 'ONE' out of One Hundred Million is - could be explained as follows. We take a piece of paper and we put 10,000 dots on it. In order to make up 100,000,000 dots we need Ten Thousand pieces of paper. So, all Ten Thousand pieces of paper have Ten Thousand dots on them... Wow!
One of these pieces of paper is shown below! Naturally, to show Ten Thousand pieces of paper with Ten Thousands dots on them would become too much to show. So, I did not show all Ten Thousand piece of paper. ( 10,000 x 10,000 = 100,000,000 )
Are you ready for this? Out of these One Hundred Millions dots only ONE is visible. That's the atom of which the rest is emptiness. The one dot that we are able to see is on the end of line 58. All this indicates how empty an atom actually is. Material substances therefore and/or the entire matter universe is an hallucination of the first order...
