love this

from Pure Land

I was waking down the sidewalk doing this combined with expanding awareness using Alexander technique and accidentally made eye contact with someone that was jogging by that was certainly the most intense eye contact I’ve made with a stranger. She almost fell to her side

so from about 120 seconds of trying it out, highly recommend

Note with just about every type of meditation thing I’ve ever tried beginners luck is a thing, for a reason that the Alexander technique goes into. Namely, you’re not “trying to do it” yet. You’re just doing it

also, from what I know of tanra, spacious expanded awareness seems to be central. “Spacious passion in passionate spaces” and all that. So it wouldn’t be surprising if they mix well

Yeah, really into this. I want passion to overflow every frame of experience and this seems like a good vehicle (yana) to do that

This happened again accidentally with someone in the backseat of a car who was driving by what is going on

Walking around beaming some man stopped their car, smiled and waved at me, kept driving on. This stuff is demon magic
