Two Meditations on Emptiness with Dr. Jan Willis #181
Esteemed Buddhist teacher and scholar Dr. Jan Willis leads two meditations on emptiness in this episode. One focuses on the emptiness of the I, this pronoun, this belief that we have that we exist, that there is an I who is Jan Willis. And the other meditation is about the nature of the mind itself.
She shares the analogy that the mind and the nature of the mind is like the sky. And this "I" is an adventitious, delusional, negative and harmful cloud in that sky. But we need to be able to notice it and notice where it exists and whether or not it exists in a solid way that we think it does.
