Technique

Direct your attention inside your body. Feel your inner body. Is it alive? Is there life in your hands, arms, legs, and feet-in your abdomen, your chest? Can you feel the subtle energy field that prevades the entire body and gives vibrant life to every organ and every cell? Can you feel it simultaneously in all parts of the body as a single field of energy? Keep focusing on that feeling of your inner body for a few moments. Do not start to think about it. Feel it. The more attention you give it, the clearer and stronger this feeling will become. It will feel as if every cell is becoming more alive, and if you have a strong visual sense, you may get an image of your body luminous. Although such an image can help you temporarily, pay more attention to the feeling than any image that may arise. An image, no matter how beautiful or powerful, is already defined in form, so there is less scope for penetrating more deeply.
