Guided Meditation - Life and Death

Death contemplation triggered the Buddha's search for the deathless. It is a recommended regular recollection that helps sieve the relative from the more profound. Guidance is given to contemplate various aspects of living and dying with questions for deeper reflection.

Where the Mind has Nowhere to Rest

Stephen Batchelor

Hui-neng's definition of sitting meditation; the middle way as the avoiding of the 'deadends' of existence and non-existence; the Greek philosopher Pyrrho as an example of a similar attitude; Hui-ko asks Bodhidharma to 'set his mind at rest'; the infinity of things; emptiness as the unfindability of things; to question 'what is this' is the practice of such emptiness that neither affirms nor denies anything.
