Sit back and watch
Slow your breath However you know how Breathe in or breathe out It doesn’t really matter how Slow your thinking By not thinking at all If you’re a master but truly you’re not So just be amused by the thoughts Running through or slowing down Slow your walk Take a step back in every step forward Without moving backward Let there be a lag in your move So that you move while standing still Sit back and watch The movie has just started Popcorn at hand And you are nowhere to be seen Except on the big screen With popcorn in hand Sit back and watch
Until the next ❤️ beat ~.~.~
Carlo, in this single poem you have listed four time-tested centuries old tools to reconnect recognise with one's basic changeless nature aka Bodh / Awareness :
Noticing our breath by slowing it
Feeling our walking by walking slowly
Witnessing our thoughts as passing clouds
Seeing our actions as those in a movie
If one can live your this poem, s/he need not read more 🙏🏼
Used to imagine a “one who watches,” perched in front of a screen playing all the data from each sense door. And then one day, I noticed something else and giggled.
