This meditation is my interpretation of the Buddha's wonderful teaching known as The "Cula-Suññata" (The Shorter Discourse on Emptiness). It describes how, though a series of patient observations, we can gradually shift our attention from the busy world around us to the formless realms of boundless serenity and emptiness. I find it a profound practice, and have lead many practitioners through it on retreats. To make this powerful meditation available to as many people as possible, I've experimented, over the last few years, to make it as streamlined and concrete as possible (the original teaching is quite abstract and vague. This was recorded live at a dharma punx NYC class in Brooklyn NYC.
