The nature of the world we see around us can be explained by the commingling of the consciousness with the objects that appear in it.
In consciousness appear all objects, hence it is the ground of being. It is known as the Brahman in Vedanta, the basis space of all there is.
In Buddhism it is also known as void or emptiness. Much like the concept of space in physics, the emptiness or vacuum is the very ground of things it is in which other objects appear.
Much like the vacuum of physics however the vacuum hardly remains pure i.e. completely empty.
Indeed in physics in a vacuum matter and energy is spontaneously created all the time.
Pure consciousness does not remain pure and gets commingled with the thought forms that arise in it.
This is similar to how elements behave in nature, most elements in nature cannot remain in pure form but get attached to something or the other as soon as they are allowed in contact with them.
