Self Attention Meditation

[Guest guest]

..

After sitting (down) for

(practising) 'self-attention',

turning the 'attentive power'

on our

'existence-consciousenss', it

is enough to make it stay

there only for 1-2 minutes.

..

Then, when it (the attentive

power), slips away from

'self-attention', after

staying for a while, after

relaxing the 'effort' we can

just be (without doing

anything), (either with or

without closing the eyes).

Once again, after 1 minute,

again we can give a 'turn' to

the attentive power on

'self-attention'.

..

Now, the mind will engage

itself for 1-2 minutes in

'self-attention', with a bit

of enthusiasm.

..

Then, stopping the 'effort'

for 1 minute and relaxing,

again focus on

'self-attention'.

By the self-attention that is

thus attempted after

intervals, it becomes

conducive for each effort to

get freshness and a new

strength.
