Lama Zopa Rinpoche Essential Extracts

Any Activity Can Be a Mindfulness Meditation on Emptiness


Listen Later

Whatever we are doing, even while at the beach or the supermarket, we can engage in one of three mindfulness meditations on emptiness, Rinpoche suggests. For example, we can be mindful that everything we are experiencing is a total hallucination, like a dream in which things appear but are not there. Or we can be mindful that everything that appears to us as real is totally empty of existing from its own side. Or we can be mindful that everything exists in mere name and is merely labeled by the mind. In this way, there is nothing to cling to or get angry at. We suffer so much and so many delusions arise on the basis of believing that the hallucination we experience is real. By realizing that everything is empty, we destroy our delusions. The teaching for this episode was recorded on August 12, 2017, at Thubten Norbu Ling Center, United States.
