Talk titled: "Guided Meditation: Three Characteristics", given during the event "Meditation on Emptiness". Held at Gaia House, Devon on 2010-01-23.

Topics covered: three characteristics, guided meditation on three characteristics, impermanence (anicca), not-self (anatta), dukkha (suffering)

Teacher's note on suitability: please note that these talks are from a 4 week retreat for experienced meditators. the talks and meditations can be listened to in any order or individually, but as they progressively unfold different levels of understanding of emptiness, they will probably be more fully understood and the practices more easily developed if taken in series.
