Experience is empty of whatever isn&#8217;t right here in experience now. This seems obvious, but we delude ourselves into thinking that although\u00a0something isn&#8217;t &#8216;here&#8217;, it&#8217;s still &#8216;there&#8217; in some way, even when we don&#8217;t experience it.<\/p>\n<p>Say you&#8217;ve been somewhere away from home (even just out shopping) &#8211; where is that place\u00a0in experience\u00a0now? Quite simply, it&#8217;s nowhere, other than in our imagination. This is not suggesting that the place &#8216;doesn&#8217;t exist&#8217;, it&#8217;s about directly\u00a0knowing the distinction between what is experienced and what is imagined or mentally constructed.

Tejananda introduces the sutta and clarifies its teachings, emphasizing the experiential nature of emptiness beyond conceptual frameworks. Through guided meditation and reflections, participants explore the distinction between direct bodily experience and mental constructions, uncovering how views of the body can give rise to dukkha.<\/p>\n<p>Key practices include grounding into the somatic body, contemplating the earth element, and recognizing the body\u2019s emptiness of conceptual overlays. The session also offers space for Q&amp;A, fostering deeper engagement with the sutta\u2019s insights and practical applications in everyday life. A closing meditation ties the experience together, leaving participants with a grounded sense of embodied presence.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_video src=&#8221;https:\/\/vimeo.com\/1034802843?share=copy&#8221; disabled_on=&#8221;off|off|off&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_video][et_pb_text disabled_on=&#8221;off|off|off&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Caption&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;18px&#8221; link_font=&#8221;|700|||||||&#8221; link_text_color=&#8221;#8E1849&#8243; link_font_size=&#8221;20px&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;-20px||||false|false&#8221; text_font_size_tablet=&#8221;18px&#8221; text_font_size_phone=&#8221;16px&#8221; text_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; link_text_color_tablet=&#8221;#84B29D&#8221; link_text_color_phone=&#8221;#84B29D&#8221; link_text_color_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; link_font_size_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; link_font_size_phone=&#8221;16px&#8221; link_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|tablet&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{%22gcid-6e11b5e3-f634-40b8-8318-80dc6999eedb%22:%91%22link_text_color%22%93}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>In this session, we continue our exploration of emptiness, focusing on the sense of space as described in the Shorter Sutta on Emptiness. Building on previous practices of grounding and awareness of the body, we open to the spaciousness within and around our direct experience. Participants engage in guided meditations that distinguish between the sensate body, mental overlays, and the space in which all experiences arise.<\/p>\n<p>The session includes reflections on the interconnectedness of sensory fields, the absence of boundaries, and the dissolution of the dualistic sense of \u201cme\u201d and \u201cother.\u201d Through inquiry and meditation, participants explore how perceptions of form, space, and mental activity intersect in an undivided experiential field. Concluding with opportunities for shared reflections and questions, this session deepens our understanding of embodied emptiness as both a practice and a lived experience.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_video src=&#8221;https:\/\/vimeo.com\/1034826199?share=copy&#8221; disabled_on=&#8221;off|off|off&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_video][et_pb_text disabled_on=&#8221;off|off|off&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Caption&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;18px&#8221; link_font=&#8221;|700|||||||&#8221; link_text_color=&#8221;#8E1849&#8243; link_font_size=&#8221;20px&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;-20px||||false|false&#8221; text_font_size_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; text_font_size_phone=&#8221;16px&#8221; text_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|tablet&#8221; link_text_color_tablet=&#8221;#84B29D&#8221; link_text_color_phone=&#8221;#84B29D&#8221; link_text_color_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; link_font_size_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; link_font_size_phone=&#8221;16px&#8221; link_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>This session deepens our exploration of space and consciousness as framed by the Shorter Sutta on Emptiness. Participants begin with a period of just sitting, cultivating open awareness without judgment or direction. Through guided meditations, we investigate the sense of space in which bodily sensations, sounds, and mental activity arise.<\/p>\n<p>The practice progresses to recognizing the boundless nature of space and its inseparability from consciousness. Participants are invited to notice that consciousness itself extends as far as the perceived space, dissolving boundaries between inner and outer experience. The session concludes with a reflection on forms re-arising within consciousness, grounding the exploration in the immediate experience of the six senses.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row disabled_on=&#8221;on|on|on&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Internal Section Rule&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.23&#8243; max_width=&#8221;305px&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; disabled=&#8221;on&#8221; collapsed=&#8221;on&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_divider color=&#8221;#39362A&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.23&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_divider][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row disabled_on=&#8221;on|on|on&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Retreat Resources&#8221; module_id=&#8221;video1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.23&#8243; disabled=&#8221;on&#8221; collapsed=&#8221;on&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;DAY 2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.23&#8243; text_text_color=&#8221;#39362A&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"text-transform: uppercase;font-weight: 300;font-size: 16px;letter-spacing: 3px;line-height: 1em;vertical-align: text-top\"><strong>retreat resources<\/strong><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_2,1_2&#8243; use_custom_gutter=&#8221;on&#8221; gutter_width=&#8221;2&#8243; disabled_on=&#8221;on|on|on&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Day 2 Media&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.23&#8243; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;-50px||||false|false&#8221; custom_margin_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; custom_margin_phone=&#8221;-25px||||false|false&#8221; custom_margin_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; custom_width_px=&#8221;1000px&#8221; disabled=&#8221;on&#8221; collapsed=&#8221;on&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_code admin_label=&#8221;&#8216;Blue Poem&#8217;, by D H Lawrence (Day 2)&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.21.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;center&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_code][et_pb_button button_url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.freebuddhistaudio.com\/audio\/details?num=LOC5784&#038;v=e167f0899f35503387d28f63%20&#8243; url_new_window=&#8221;on&#8221; button_text=&#8221;Download &#8216;Blue Poem&#8217; by D H Lawrence&#8221; button_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; button_alignment_phone=&#8221;center&#8221; button_alignment_last_edited=&#8221;off|desktop&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Download audio&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.23&#8243; custom_button=&#8221;on&#8221; button_text_size=&#8221;20px&#8221; button_text_color=&#8221;#39362A&#8221; button_border_color=&#8221;#39362A&#8221; button_font=&#8221;|700|||||||&#8221; button_use_icon=&#8221;off&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;50px||||false|false&#8221; custom_margin_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; custom_margin_phone=&#8221;0px||||false|false&#8221; custom_margin_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; button_text_size_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; button_text_size_phone=&#8221;16px&#8221; button_text_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_code admin_label=&#8221;&#8216;Final Ballad of the Interior Paramour&#8217;, by Wallace Stevens.
