| 摘要 | Emptiness is a fundamental Buddhist principle that refers to the fact that phenomena are devoid of intrinsic existence. This absence of intrinsic existence refers as much to the true and absolute nature of the individual that practices mindfulness, as it does to the present moment they are supposed to be observing. Therefore, if an individual is to become accomplished at the practice of mindfulness, they must familiarize themselves with the absolute mode in which the present moment abides. Following an explication of the emptiness principle, this chapter elucidates the practice of mindfulness of emptiness and includes a discussion of (i) its theoretical and scriptural provenance, (ii) how to practice mindfulness of emptiness, and (iii) its role in the wider context of the Buddhist path to spiritual awakening. The final part of the chapter addresses the fact that mindfulness itself is also empty of intrinsic existence and discusses the risks associated with developing attachments to Buddhist concepts and practices. |
