Description
Jim Scott begins this teaching on Progressive Stages of Meditation on Emptiness by explaining what this title means. Progressive Stages means a step-wise development of this subject. We need all five stages to get the overview. Meditation in this context means analytical meditation followed by resting in certainty arising from analysis. Emptiness from the perspective of practice is the foundation of all of our practices. Emptiness is how things are in their basic nature which we know from clear, rigorous thinking, not blind faith. This is an important subject beause it is a description of the nature of mind, the ultimate nature of phenomena, the ultimate nature or our experience, the nature of mind (thinking, feelings and perceptions). The problem we encounter is figuring out what emptiness means at different levels of our path. This is what these talks are about. Jim Scott teaches based on teachings Khenpo Tsultrim Gyamtso Rinpoche gave in Taiwan. Jim Scott translated this material into verse form and meter. He teaches the five stages of meditation on emptiness by explaining these verses line by line and teaching the associated practices. Jim's three talks are detailed and very clear. They are delightful to listen to and are a succinct and definitive presentation of Progressive Stages of Meditation on Emptiness.
