Depth:

I hadn’t begun practicing the Hong Sau technique when the end bells rang at 60 and 61 minutes. I did practice it thereafter, for as long as I could. It was for just a few minutes.

I noticed my attention making that smooth move that it is capable of. It is recent in my practice that I have observed my attention cutting smoothly through depths of mind. It feels like a sharp knife tearing a super fine yet super strong material. With every incisive cut, a bit of a space-less (therefore time-less) part of one’s mind is revealed.

Undoing by cutting is immediately replaced by the same fine and strong layer that can hold imagery once again. Having experienced such smooth cutting by the attention in the intuitive sphere, it isn’t a change of experience for me. Last night wasn’t the night I had a change of depth.

My spine felt straighter and stronger than other sessions. There may not be any real tangible change in my spinal column. However, it surely felt like my spine from tail to neck was extra straight last night. Again, it is a feeling I have experienced before. I have also mentioned this straightness in one of my blog pieces before. A familiar feeling is evidence of me not touching a greater new depth of mind last night.

There was a certain lack of distraction yesterday. I was gently focused on my forehead and my attention wasn’t moving from its spot. At one point I even took a chance and a moment to observe. While I observed, I knew that the attention was acting outside of habit by not slipping away. It is most unusual for my attention to behave this way. To be poised in a depth of mind where it couldn’t even reach a few weeks back, is most unusual. To be still in an intuitive sub layer of mind is new to my decades old practice.

Sometimes a small set of requirements contribute to preparedness to take on a new depth of mind. Other times, the requirements fall in place without the meditator noticing it. Some meditational changes are super subtle.

For my body to stop shaking involuntarily through sessions, I have a sensing that loose energies in the spine have to begin pooling in my head. I shook all though the session last night.

It’s possible that a smooth cutting of dense intuitive layers by my attention is where I need to be, in terms of acquiring meditation proficiency. Before I can handle energies pooling in the head, I probably need a bunch of abilities in place.

In fact, nearly all of my spine was dissipating life giving energies by making my entire body move last night. A spine that feels stretched into a straighter, broader, and stronger than before manner may be an absolute must feeling before the Intelligence in the energies feel comfortable about visiting the head.

As far as attention goes, it is like a blade that has to be sharpened continually from the day one begins one’s meditation practice. Attention can take you from conscious to subconscious to intuition.
