We have ample time, You are doing What (?)

0:00I see all good people. That's all of us. I think most of mankind can be easily included in this thought, in this feeling. Good morning. And yet, there is so much miscommunication going on that we have the environment we're in today. Crazy with wars and stupidity, lacking common sense. But it's okay. It's the way it is. It's been going on for thousands of years. Same old, same old. Yet there is room for improvement and number one. And number two, we have the capacity, the capabilities and the tools to foster this. It's not beyond our reach. What we're practicing in the sense of mindful meditation, of self-awareness, is indicative of the capacity we have to create new habits, rituals, ways of interacting with ourselves with each other.

1:10Be mindful also of this concept of talking to oneself. There is nothing wrong in talking with oneself. I remember as a little boy being told one should never talk to himself. And yet we are always talking to ourselves. Constantly, we are making decisions. We are creating inklings and asking questions or giving answers. We are creating how we are going to proceed in this next moment of time. And those thereafter, how we are going to flow. Consciously, unconsciously. This is going on all the time. There is what I mean by the misconceptions of our society. Just another story. Of course, if you are doing this with a lack of abandon and creating all kinds of fantasies and visualizations,

2:12I think there is some moderation that we need to consider. Yet, I think the way most of us have a conversation is healthy. Looking to be helpful, instructive, to making better decisions. We are considering our different opportunities or potentials, our perspective. It is why, in mindful meditation, we want to be as wide and broad and our perspectives as possible. Breathing, sitting comfortably, pulsing, being in an environment where one can focus easily. Feeling one's warmth, one's body's posture, where are you, what are you doing? And feeling the texture of one's skin, and feeling the warmth.

3:17Imminating from one's skin. Breathing, we breathe 15 to 20,000 times a day. You all know that, I know. So, around every four, five, six seconds, something like that. Breathing longer and more slowly, comfortably, peacefully, with a sense of calm being created. One's blood pressure, one's heartbeat slowing down. One's thoughts. Sometimes our thoughts are still racing, or they are still involved with other conversations and things of one's day. That's okay, as we continue, we'll help allow these different things to feed away. Because we're going to be concentrating on different things, that's all.

4:17It's simple. Thinking about one's breath, as we said, doing this, please. Long and slow, and purposefully. And when one is inhaled enough through preferably one's nostrils, then one pauses, allowing this oxygenated air in one's lungs to transform. It's carrying capacity of O2 to receiving CO2 carbon dioxide to breathe out. And when we feel like breathing out again, having an exhalation, then doing so. And I know you're having mini by the time I finish my conversation. So, you have ample time to practice. Slow and long. And in consideration of our journey and practice and curiosity together today,

5:21on the bottom half of one's exhale, create the sensation of the sound of O, or O, or whatever sound you like to utter beneath one's breath, or just above the threshold, or louder, whatever. The purpose being to feel the vibration being created in one's lungs and one's chest, one's torso, and they're after spreading everywhere, feeling this energization, this reflection of what and whom you are. Almost sapien, DNA, over three billion years old, the DNA that we have. Please, doing this. This is our joy, our curiosity to do this.

6:21To smile, to create, to behold whom we are, bundles of miracles, humble by our recognition of whom we are. And thankful for being able to recognize, simple, keeping it simple. We are all on the same roller coaster of life, finding opportunities to excel, to help ourselves grow, self-improvement, or wonderful ways of passing on our traditions, our generational, contribution, evolution. We're part of doing the best we can, is what we're seeing. And as one finishes, the exhale pausing again, and being mindful of this clean air we've just been breathing,

7:26and where did it come from before it entered our nose. As we watch this air pass through our nostrils and into our nasal passages being warmed and moisturized, homogenized, to make its way down the back of our throats into our windpipe, into our upper and then lower lobes. Nestling our heart, between our right and left and lungs, was our diaphragm just beneath our lungs, to push in in a sense pull, as our heart squeezes and relaxes. It is, we're such a beauty, our rhythm, our lives, flowing, rhythm of life. Thinking of life this way is helpful, changing, always moving about, oscillating, also a way to help oneself,

8:36because with this degree of flexibility we are more adaptable, can entertain the suggestion to our greater being, to our egos, to our greater minds, that we can move, we can change, we can adapt, we can be flexible. Helping us to accomplish these tasks, and wanting to acquire a sense of versatility. So even when one finishes, one's exhale, one could also self-affirm. I am strength, I am focus, I am kind, I am understanding, considerate, organized, disciplined. I am these virtues and more. What a great way to say hello, bundles of miracles.

9:42How old did I say? Over three billion years? Well, your DNA. You and I know that this conglomeration of energy, flesh and bones, nerves and sinews and muscles are that old actually, but in the composition of what we identify as ourselves, short time, right? Not that long. So it's a reason to be humble, just in this realization. One's life of 20 or 40 or 60 or 80 or 10 years or 100 years is not even a drop in the bucket, it's just a whisk passing by. We've been breathing with a sense of articulation, yes, and the other thoughts that one harbored are now dissipated and faded away. Good, and if not, then even more begin to follow one's own pulsing.

10:44We spoke briefly about our heart, pulsing, with a sense of awareness again, patience, a sense of purpose. And as one practices and becomes more adept at this process, feeling in different locations or feeling one's whole body, pulse or underlate with this heart giving energy, the heart squazing and pressing the blood through your vascular system. This is everywhere, so it's being felt everywhere, you can feel the undulation as it flows. If one practices being sensitive to this, what do you know? You learn by practicing, you become more sensitive and capable by practicing, by repeating something, it becomes easier.

11:51And as you like, we can add in again something we spoke about a little while ago, the warmth emanating from our body, clasping one's fingers to fingers, digits to digits, thumbs to thumbs, palms to palms gently, and feeling the energy going back and forth, the heat, and feeling now beneath the heat, feeling what? Feeling this energy emanating from your cells, everything is vibrating, each cell is vibrating. Why? Because they're alive, feeling the tingling, the shimmering, and one side. Your majesty, please. Being here now, a bundle of miracles, thankful for life, a wake up call, and doing this all day as we need.

12:57When one begins to feel dis-ease, D-I-S-I-F-N-E-A-S-E, dis-ease, then we know what we need to accomplish. We need to return to a state of awareness of remembering our state of minds, of whom and what, why, where, how, and when we are. The five W's in one H of Thomas Wilson, the letter of fiction, from 1560 who enumerated these six questions for any subject. Why am I dis-ease in this moment? Pause, breathe, pulse, shimmer, remember. This is a wake. The music lingers for another minute. Please think about what we're talking about.

14:16The music lingers for another minute. The music lingers for another minute. Namaste.
