[GBF] New talk: Realizing Buddhist 'Emptiness' - Zerdan Phunrab

Do we really understand the world around us that we encounter and the true nature of reality?

In this talk, Zerdan explains that the highest wisdom teachings in Buddhism center on Emptiness – realizing the nature of reality that we experience.

To understand the place of Emptiness in Buddhist teachings, Zerdan examines the Three Poisons, or obstacles to enlightenment, along with their associated ‘ANTIDOTES’:

  1. Greed (Attachment) – LOVE
  2. Hatred (Anger) – PATIENCE
  3. Delusion (Ignorance) – REALIZING OF EMPTINESS

He goes on to explore the various ways we can explore emptiness to realize it as the foundation for all that we experience.
