佛说：一切皆为虚幻
Buddha says: Everything is void.
Void is just one aspect of the nature. As an individual thing in the world, one can assign a meaning to his existence. Then a meaningful world is created, for one.
It does not matter whether the assigned meaning is "absolutely" (nothing in Existence is absolute indeed) significant or relevant to others. You believe it is, then it is, to you. If you question its meaning, your world would collapse unless you make another. All these are made possible because the source is the Void, which makes everything possible, assigned meaning meaningful, and different assignments all meaningful.
Make a choice by selecting a meaning for your world that pleases your heat. Stick to it until your game is over or it would please you to change it. However, in the game, keep your mind open, so you won't be devoured by the world, the meaning of the world that you created.
What if one does not want to assign a meaning to his world and continue the game, but want to see through it. He is denying or rejecting his existence. If one accepts your existence, his world is not void. Death might be the state directly connected to the Void. However, one's death is the birth of another. Therefore, there might never been any state which the Void is accessible, for us. On the other hand, Void is behind Existence at any time.
