What does the saying ‘the world is empty’ refer to?” “Ānanda, they say that ‘the world is empty’ because it’s empty of self or what belongs to self. Suññataloka Sutta SN 35.85.

In this short course, we will use the power of good friends practicing Insight Dialogue together to investigate the Buddha’s teachings on suññatā and to experience what lies beyond the label. We will focus on developing practical ways to use this understanding to bring clear seeing and the fruits of the practice into daily life.
