During a deep meditation this morning I entered a deep meditative state.
I was in total awareness of my bodily functions and mind.
I did not judge any thoughts or feelings I had. I just let them be.
I simply sat there in acceptance and observed the “goings on” of my body and mind.
I observed my left leg under my right calf muscle.
I observed my stomach growl due to the acidity and grelin, perhaps some hunger.
I observed my legs begin to strain a bit and so I stretched them out.
I observed my mind wander, entertaining different thoughts.
I observed and felt a deep, blissful relaxation come over me. It was as if I was floating. Total silence. Total peace. Nothing in the world mattered but this moment. Anything seemed possible.
How did I enter this state?
A deep intention of letting go and just “be-ing”.
No water, no food, no caffeine, nothing.
7 hours of restful sleep.
Listening to my body. I had woken up at 3:15 am, but I asked my body and mind, “are you ready to wake up?” it said, “no, not yet”, and so I went back to sleep. At 7:13 am it said “yes” and so I awoke.
I also took myself to my village in Nepal, on the grass facing Mount Everest, meditating.
Coming out of the meditation I felt at peace.
My whole day was given the feeling of intention.
