Appearance and essence.
Superficial phenomena are appearances, things that can be seen, heard, understood, and felt. There is often a saying that we can see the essence through the phenomenon, and it is more appropriate to say that we can see the essence through the phenomenon, and the essence is invisible and untouchable.
The essence of the operation and development of things does not change with time, environment, consciousness, etc., and the essence is always there. The essence is to answer why, why is this happening? Why is that? Essence is also universal and long-lasting, "essence" is above the law of things, and all "essence" belongs to philosophical theories.
Philosophy is a process of continuous deepening, layer by layer of analysis, layer by layer of exploration, the deeper you go, the more you go to the bottom, you reach the level of the law of everything, that is, the most basic level. Appearance is equivalent to the top-level level, and the approximate level is: appearance-substance--- principle--essence-law.
Everything in the universe operates within the laws, the earth and the earth's creatures also operate within the laws, the inorganic universe has a set of laws of the inorganic universe, all organic life in the universe has its own set of laws, and the laws of organic life are also applicable to intelligent human beings and human society, but the laws applicable to intelligent human beings and human society will be more detailed.
