Sow some wisdom seeds - meditate on emptiness

The classes will start with a breathing meditation to relax the mind and are followed by a short talk on emptiness or ultimate truth. Emptiness is a profound subject and we will look at analogies to illustrate it.

Buddha said that all phenomena are like illusions. Buddha likened all phenomena to illusions because, through the force of the imprints of self-grasping ignorance accumulated since beginningless time, whatever appears to our mind naturally appears to be truly existent and we instictively assent to this appearance, but in reality everything is totally empty of true existence.

Course fee: 5 €/ class
