moment now the Mind became very alert Sharp very attentive when there is fear when there is tension right now now when there is a danger you have nothing to think about past or future you are totally in the present moment correct when you are afraid you are in the present moment when you are angry you are in the present moment but these presence of mind is much different from the presence of mind you have it in meditation what is the difference in meditation there is Serenity and deep relaxation and this presence of mind this is a different huh you are here now and here but not with sharp awareness or focused attention are you getting what I'm saying whenever you are reading a book or doing some work with total focus and total attention in it your presence of mind is there [Music] but that presence of mind is limited or narrowed and it has tension in it on the other hand when you are relaxed you are completely in deep Slumber say or Tundra no um foreign [Music] foreign [Music] foreign now we will meditate in this meditation what we are going to do we are going to align our mind with the breath and the body okay these three things are aligned that is when the presence is felt present moment you are in correct so we are going to do that this is neither uh Slumber deep sleep nor it is a sharp alertness or awakefulness it's in between it's a restful wakefulness or wakeful deep rest yeah so let us sit comfortably easily first as usual we will chant three times ohm as we chant home we feel the sound from our whole body see sound is Just Energy and our body has billions of cells trillions of cells and these cells reverberates or absorbs energy okay let us make a whole body absorb The Sound Energy of ohm which is total sound which is called the total sound

or straighter and as you breathe out notice your body is getting relaxed incoming breath is tensing and outgoing breath is relaxing sounds the flow of your breath is like that of a fountain the nozzle of a fountain throws the water up and then the water comes down flowing similarly your breath is going in forcibly and coming out relaxing so imagine your breath is moving or your attention is going
