Emptiness Panacea

ByWim van den Dungen

Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
This book is about emptiness, the core of the Buddhayana, the ‘vehicle’ of the Buddha. Shunyata is the noun form of the adjective 'shunya,' meaning ‘void, zero, nothing and empty,’ from the root 'shvi,' or ‘hollow.’ But 'emptiness' does not mean ‘nothing,’ and instead refers to the absence of something, to the fact an object has been negated. What is found wanting ? A certain common way of existence entertained by most of us ... This book gives body to my intent to help understand emptiness clearly and distinctly, so its salvic power may benefit as many as possible. This is directly related to the fact that common Emptiness Meditation clears emotional and mental afflictions, whereas ‘seeing’ emptiness is a nondual state of mind, fostering nondual perception, thought and action. These aspects of the awake mind lack substance-obsession, heal the obscurations and end the conflicts resulting from a lack of actions uprooting suffering.
