Lately...

Settling,  noting the breath, just sitting in a body-grounded presence, and observing the arising and dissolution of consciousness (of sensing... of thinking... of feeling... of response patterns...)Through jolts of ecstasy; between tremors of bliss; despite the attraction of painfully sensitive joy...Sit with what is.See the suffering in a "good sit". Relish in the torment of a "bad sit". Watch with simple and impartial observation the psycho-physical system along with which consciousness lunges up out of and crashes back down (again and again) into the "one necessary thing": the "Way, Truth, and Life"; the Tao; the Law; Stillness; Being; the Ultimate Will; Silent Awareness; God. I can think of less interesting things to watch...
