Written in the morning after the session.

There are two whole exercises in this session that I have missed conducting. And I didn’t realise that I missed them in totality until the morning after the session! If this is how thick the intuition is going to be, then I better have a plan in place before I sit for my next session.

Maybe I could add bells at different time intervals on the app where I log my meditations. The first bell to begin opening prayer. The second bell after 5 minutes, as a reminder to begin count breathing. A third bell to begin tensing-relaxing exercises. Maybe add a fourth bell to commence the blessed Hong Sau.

I have thought about it. The quiet within is beautiful, no doubt. And the bodily shakings can have a disturbing effect on the ongoing meditation. From what I understand of Paramahansa Yogananda’s teachings, it is important to pay attention to where one’s life energies are. If they are making one’s body shake involuntarily, then this is where one’s attention should be. If one experiences a little quiet, one mustn’t begin thinking that one has arrived. So, to be focused on increasing one’s freed up energy, is more important than experiencing a certain degree of peace.
