토론:호흡
고요 연습에서 호흡을 사용하기 위한 서머스의 가르침
"You can’t really think and deep breathe at the same time; it doesn’t really work mechanically. So to do simple deep breathing while you’re focusing on that sound or that object helps to bring your mind into a center line, helps to center you."[1]
"Choose a single syllable meaningless word, like the word 'one' or 'um' or 'om'—just a meaningless word—and to just repeat this in your mind to yourself. You can even follow your breath. Your breath could be, so to speak, what you focus on. And just as your mind tends to wander away from that, begins to think again, just come back. Just come back. It’s almost like this meaningless word, this sound, this sensation of breathing is like a little pebble, a little pebble that you’re thinking mind can attach to. And it and of itself will begin to sink deeper and deeper through the quieter levels of the mind.
Initially, you’ll find yourself bouncing right back to the surface. You’ll sit down for 20 minutes and you will feel like you were just…you were still thinking. That’s okay because you just repeat your meaningless word; you just breathe and you follow your breath. And over time, you’ll begin to create tracks, little pathways through the mind."[2]
"Practicing slow, fairly shallow nasal breathing will help you move into a deeper state of stillness."[3]
