The Empty Room Contemplation on Death and Impermanence


This is a very powerful practice. It begins with mindfulness of the breath, body & mind and leads into a contemplation on the nature of impermanence and the certainty of death arriving at any "ordinary moment." Using visualization of all that you know and love disappearing through an empty room, this contemplation brings an experiential awareness of the concept of emptiness. It then returns full circle to reinforce a renewed sense of appreciation for being alive with everything just as it is, as each moment you are alive is in fact an "extraordinary moment."
