In this short video, Tibetan meditation teacher Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche explains how the nature of awareness is like wide open space. By exploring awareness itself, he explains, we come to see that all the fleeting thoughts and emotions that move through awareness do not alter the fundamental purity and goodness of our true nature. Meditation, then, is simply the process of getting to know awareness. To take a free, self-guided intro to meditation course, visit http://learning.tergar.org.
