Appearance and Emptiness in Our Daily Life
Out of confusion and ignorance we misapprehend reality and perceive ourselves in a state of painful isolation from others and our world. We view our limitations as real and we feel stuck. But our limitations are not real. The actual nature of things is emptiness, which means things do not exist outside or separate from our mind, but as mere appearances arising from our mind. Understanding this naturally frees our mind from our sense of limitation and insecurity and fills our mind with happiness. In this workshop we will explore the practical implications of how an understanding of emptiness can empower us to view ourselves, others, and the world in the most beneficial way possible making our lives deeply meaningful.
