Discovering Buddhism: The Wisdom of Emptiness
- All Buddhist schools of thought agree that the wisdom understanding
selflessness or emptiness is the only method for completely freeing
oneself (and others) from the cycle of suffering. Suffering and its
causes exist in the mind, so only wisdom realizing the ultimate nature
of reality can uproot those causes, thereby bringing liberation.
Essential to gaining such wisdom is understanding correctly how we
ordinarily misperceive the nature of ourselves and the people and things
around us. We then learn to use reasoning in the process of meditation
for the purpose of undermining those misperceptions. In this course
we will explore a number of Buddhist schools of thought and methods of
meditation for understanding emptiness.
