No I don't have evidence, for you, but I have proven it for myself. There is no way for me to prove it to you, this is a tricky thing about Buddhism. but I also always keep in mind that I may be wrong, that my ignorance may be blinding me to the real truth of all of existence. The fact that I don't have to believe everything in Buddhism is something I really like about it. Evidence and proof are scientific attributes, the religion of science demands this absolute. Everyone including you are fighting to define their existence, and maybe just maybe, their existence is what they want it to be? Your reality is you and you alone, your perception counts really for you only! So many people want to feel like they have the answer, not for others but for themselves. A never ending drive to prove they are in control of there existence, for when they don't they feel lost. I am wrong and I am right every day, even at the same time. Again I am not saying you are wrong an anyway, but you very well could be even with the religion of science. Its your truth, your reality, your perception, and even with all the evidence that you have, it is still only your interpretation of that evidence. Just like the interpretation of a religious book. I know for myself that there are things out in this reality, way more complicated then our small interaction on earth. We as ignorant beings have such a little window to see the bigger picture. Look at what an ant comprehends compared to what we comprehend, do really think the buck stops at us. That even our notion of time itself is an anyway really what is going on. It quite frankly is beyond our comprehension just like the ant.
I mean no disrespect, I really enjoy talking about things like this. I am sorry if I come off angry, I promise i'm not just passionate about the topic. You have given me a gift, and thank you for that. I enjoy the going back and forth with peoples point of view.
