Playing in immediacy, as one thing that stuck with me after reading yesterday's posts.
This morning my practice spilled over into the day, with the result that I marveled about every face, every transition, all that was given in time and space around me, me included. edited 22:40, 4 Feb 2012

Prostrations just before going to bed. The "allowing" version needs more relaxation to start than the "doing" version - there is a short period of just sinking and relaxing before the movement starts.

Had nice all day meditation session (though it actually works out at only around two or three hours meditation in total.) Some readings and discussions are interspersed with the meditation. Not Zen, more like PAB, but with more meditation.Walking meditation outside is so nice and even better in the summertime when we can walk around the grounds and woodland paths at this place (Drumalis.)

Walking the wiki exploring sessions as shops, wandered into a few around the time of my original entrance to PlayasBeing, wondering if I might meet myself among others.

Exploring through various pivotal points such as first retreat and particular conversations which for whatever reason are touchstones and strong memories... came across a then seeming throw-away line ... a lifetime snapshot framed crookedly on the wall ...

Asked how I came to meditation said that I prayed and prayed until that ran out... which is and isn't what it sounds like... dream quality lingers... edited 00:14, 5 Feb 2012

Lying on my back, my head in the cup of my hands, I quiet my central nervous system, listening to the gentle music being played in the loudspeakers. The intensive self-healing workshop is nearing its end. We are about 200 in an empty college examen room with high windows through which the sun has been pouring all day. As I drift away with my thoughts, I remember something the teacher of the course just said: the importance of breathing, the importance of the "prana", which is much more abundant in the mountains or in the countryside than in a city. He also added we could as well imagine a natural landscape and breath its "prana". I felt the sensation I experienced when Moon would come to sessions and start rezzing trees and flowers and grass. I always felt exhilarated, refreshed and happy, just being in an imaginary prairie. I'm very tempted to show up in Pema's session tonite and play as Moon... #timestamp

And I am very tempted to hope that you will join us, Eden! (^_^)

Hope that was a nice session :-)
