Meditation practices to awaken the body and create a mind like a mirror, to literally see things as they are • Draws on the story of the monk Shenxiu to create a meditation practice for profound relaxation, inclusion, and connection to the world around us, and realization of our essential nature.
This book explains how our attitudes, beliefs, and bodily tensions distort our perceptions and lead to our sense of separation from the world outside our bodies. Details techniques of vision, such as sky gazing, eye gazing, and mirror gazing, that lead to ecstatic mindfulness. Right behind your eyes, you are there. You can feel yourself there, looking. So intimate is your connection with your looking that when you say, “I’m looking,” you’re implying that how you look and what you see are a direct reflection of who you are at this moment. Your attitudes and beliefs reflect what you see, and the way you live in your body can color your perceptions as well.
