Emptiness and Fullness

In this video John talks about the Buddhist concept of emptiness as an antidote to the habitual clinging and grasping we tend to unconsciously engage in.
The state of emptiness has often been depicted using various metaphors, one common one is the dream. That is to say, our experience is not simply an illusion, yet it is also true that our experience cannot be grasped. And because it cannot be grasped, it can be fully lived.
