Meditation on emptiness/nothingness means to meditate ‘without content’. To our mind, emptiness appears like death. The mind fears death, and so it will fill up with thoughts, images, dreams, illusions – anything at all. In your centre, you are no-thingness. You are an infinitely blissful and joyful space of silence. You are neither the body nor the mind. You are Infinite Consciousness. Meditation is the process of taking away all objects which are ‘objecting’ you. It is emptying the content which you hold inside.
When you meditate on emptiness/nothingness, you will live a true life; you will enjoy it, love it, and be it. You will be able to carry that emptiness with you, everywhere. There will no longer be thoughts about the self and others; no contemplation around situations; no concentration on specific objects – only awareness. If you are walking, there is only walking. If you are sitting, there is only sitting. If you are talking, there is only talking. If you are looking, there is only looking.
At first, it might seem difficult. However, the more you are aware of your chattering mind, and the emptiness beyond, the more effect this meditation will have. Beyond every noise there is only silence. Beyond every object there is only emptiness. You need to see, experience, and sense everything as emptiness – your body, thoughts, people, objects, sensations – everything as being empty. You are always surrounded by emptiness, both on the inside and the outside. Everything is empty; your witnessing creates the fullness. When all attachments disappear, and all your desires are gone – when there is no longer anything to witness – then the witness will become the witness. When there is nothing left to see, the witness will effortlessly begin to witness itself. When there is nothing left to meditate upon, you are in pure meditation. You are the Infinite Consciousness.
You Cannot Do Meditation; It Is Something You Have To Be.
First, sit down. Eliminate any discomfort, anything which might make the body feel uncomfortable. Remain immobile. If the body is not moving, the mind is not moving. The body and mind are linked together. Notice any stress in your body, particularly in the muscles. They are the body’s shield and usually carry the most tension. Tension in the body comes from tension in the mind. When you relax the body, the mind will relax.
Second, breathe naturally. Then take a really deep breath from the bottom of your lungs, slowly and effortlessly – don’t gasp. Hold it for a couple of seconds, and exhale very, very slowly. Exhale any tension. Breathe this way as many times as you want.
Third, just look. You can open or close your eyes. If you decide to keep your eyes open, then you might look at an empty horizon, or tree, or a wall. If your eyes are closed, then look at the blackness of your interior. Do not direct your attention to anything. Remain receptive, open and aware. If you do this meditate daily, the moment will come when you will witness the one who is witnessing. You will witness the witness and dive into nothingness.
At the beginning, there will be many things to distract you. You will feel sleepy, or you will dream, or think, or feel … Things will happen and the mind will start doubting. It will say, “This is silly. I have so many unfinished things to do. I am just wasting my time. I have to get up and ‘do’ something.” Remember, this meditation is about doing nothing. Don’t be bothered by the mind. Just listen and do nothing.
With Nothing To Do, And Nowhere To Go, You Will Arrive Home.
Meditate, but don’t hold it to yourself. Meditate. Discover the delight in connecting with your inner self and share this light with others. Don’t hoard this delight. Give it away. Release it. The more you give, the more you will receive. Holding the delight to yourself is selfishness. Delight does not belong to you. You are experiencing it, but it is not yours. It is the energy of the Whole and needs to be released back to the Whole. Everyone and everything is part of this Wholeness. They now need this delight more than you. Express it by giving it compassionately away.
Meditate daily, hourly, infinitely. Take a quiet moment and sit or lie down, or assume any position that will give you comfort and allow you to relax. If you are hyperactive and can’t stand being passive, you can actively bring an internal listening, observing and witnessing awareness to everything you are doing. Do not act unconsciously, in a machine-like manner. Always maintain awareness of yourself. This will still give you the same glimpse of being in the moment as a quiet, “formal” meditation.
Remember, although it is easy to become discouraged, do not give up. Be patient and vigilant at all times.
