Emptiness is the mere lack of everything we have ever thought existed.
You know that thing you are worried about? It’s not there. That person you are so hung up on? They are not there. That body which feels sick, not there. The politics you are so mad at, not there. They only appear to be really there because of our ignorance. Everything exists in a state of freedom, infinite potential, even our selves... especially our selves.
In this retreat, get a sense of the fluidity of reality and the experience of stepping out of our mental prison of painful emotions, instinctual reactions, and oppressive situations. Emptiness allows us to live lightly and respond to every situation in the most constructive way. These meditations open the doorway to real freedom and creativity.
