To focus on focusing on the Breath

Not just focusing on the breath, but consciously focusing on focusing on the breath. That way, the focus is on the Self, the power of the Self, the will power that will direct the mind to the essence of breathing.

The focus is on consciously breathing. To experience breath and knowing that I am experiencing it. It is the I am that experiences everything. There are things to be experienced and there is the experiencer. Objects and the subject. The inert objects – however alive they may seem – and the conscious subject – fully alive in the present.

The intention directs the will towards the object of observation, which becomes the focus. The first and foremost focus always needs to be the conscious Self. This is not an egoistic self, an egocentric self, a self that feels better or superior to other selves. It is the conscious Self in its vibrating crystal-clear scintillating revelation.

This crystal-clear conscious Self is one half of the experience of focusing on the breath. The other is the experience of the breath in the body itself. This is a powerful meditation. Clarity of mind and body energies are the results.
