Good video. I can't get over how still the environment was around him. Seems like the video was frozen in spots but it was so seamless elsewhere and plants would move near his hand. Either good video editing or he's got a strong effect on his environment. I will try his approach this next session. Thanks Owl.

ah, it seems to put together something I've been noticing. When I am trying to focus on a single point I always go fuzzy on the central point and flow out into the periphery as he's describing. Now that I"m thinking about it that is what a relaxed gaze is isn't it? I've noticed that I do fine "concentrating" when something is interesting and I get absorbed into it. I think I've been doing fine with concentration this entire time. It also seems this would be key as well to seeing without eyes in that you'd want to relax away from your physical eyes and flow into the peripheral.

Gene Roddenberry? Is this a relative of the same Gene that did all the science fiction shows? lol

I'm going to go slightly further than the yogi in the video, & say that the relaxed gaze is just one of many similar gateways to opening. Your entire body is a gateway to all information. So, the relaxed gaze & peripheral awareness, are both literal unto themselves, & also metaphors for what the whole body can do. Part of what is meant by the body not being solid, is that your real body is not the sold viscera. Your real body is awareness itself, before your ego constrains it with concepts. 

Also, it's important to remember that concentration is something you do until you slip & fall into meditation. However, you can learn to recognize body memory patters like the one in the video to shorten the trip:)

I spent the rest of the afternoon practicing the relaxed gaze and bringing my awareness to it constantly. At first I was actually feeling happy and more distant from "me" and it was like I could get angry but I wasn't fully immersed in the experience. As the afternoon progressed it seemed I started getting overwhelmed by the activity and anxiety and frustration really started taking a seat in my focus. I had a lot of dreams last night about awareness. I had a false awakening where I was super angry about everything. It does seem that each time I separate in some form from my daily stresses they come back harder than before. It is interesting though what I was experiencing before it soured.

Hello @owltwelve,

I have a question regarding concentration - I found I need the concentration on the PK. I have practiced of breath concentration for several months (just entering 1st jhana one time). However, like I am praciticing the visualization from your exercises or concentration on an empty mind or concentration of looking at an object, I find myself sometimes pay attention to the concentration object/action, however, after a while, I pay attention to the breath and then switch back to the concentration object/action.

Do you have any suggestion for this?

Thank you!

6879, you should pick a concentration object/subject & stick to it for the duration of the practice session. If your object is a cup; then attention moving to your breath is your mind wandering. In such a case, the breath should be regarded as any other phenomena which is not the cup...irrelevant. The same is true in the reverse. If your object is the breath for that session; the cup is the distraction. In either case, noticing that you are distracted & remembering your original object is mindfulness. Gently bringing attention back to the object is concentration.

The practice with the cup is a bit different than kasina practice & development of jhana factors though. The goal with the cup practice is familiarity with sense memory & conscious access to hypnagogic states of mind. You want to reach the point where at the early stages; you can clear imagery in the minds eye. At the more advanced stages, you want to develop access to controlled hallucinations which are indistiguishable from physical matter reality. It's on the same scale as access concentration & Jhana factors, in that we're talking about absorption, but the goals are different. You don't need to give up your breath concentration. Just focus on it during a different practice session.

I hope you find this helpful:)

Thank you owltwelve,

I have one more question regarding the kasina meditation. When I look at the object for a while, the object starts getting blur. Let's say we have a colored circle object hanging on a wall, I have several questions:

1/ Should I maintain to see the object as clear as from the beginning?


2/ Where should I look at it? At the center of the object? Or the whole object based on its side?


3/ Do you have any other advice regarding this?

Thank you once again!

6879, If I'm using a circle; I try to make it a size which I can see the whole diameter of without strain. What works for me is a relaxed gaze at the whole image. In some sense I am looking at the center in order to see the whole thing evenly but I'm not locked on any one part of it. That being said; not all kasinas conform to a circle shape.

It helps to relax your body & remain still throughout the process. Also, it also helps to rest your attention on the object; observing every detail without pushing & pulling with your own ideas(you don't need to make anything happen). When my eyes get tired; I close them & look at the after image of the object for as long as I can hold details in my sense memory. When I only see blackness, or my attention wanders; I open my eyes again & refocus on the physical image until either my eyes are tired again or I have a clear image in my mind's eye:)

Concentration is a form of electromagnetic resonance too (: If you become aware of your nuclei especially the ones in your brain cells, as you focus/concentrate longer and longer the spin increases, therefore also increasing your electromagnetic density and field of influence. Anything youre doing this with too youre linking with. Ive said electromagnetic linking a few times basically what I mean is like oneness.. it feels as an extension of you, and you of it. You experience with, through and as whatever youre linking/syncing to. Hence the empathy part of psychokinesis.. thats the linking/syncing part. The nucleic part, the electromagnetic field/ aura part
