This is also the place where certain traditions that have, you know, worked as if around the body, oftentimes they miss the point.

They become distorted.

If it's something to get rid of.

Certain meditators, you see that their body, how it looks.

It's all neglected and broken.

Like the mind or consciousness.

It's like, why consciousness came into this body?

It's a disrespectful thing.

And I believe it is not the real deal.

Of course...

I don't want to get caught into the identification with the body.

That's the other side.

I also like body scans in the form of the Vipassana tradition have been a big practice of mine and bringing awareness to increasingly more and more subtle levels of dimensions of the body and the mind.

And I think upon the examination and just even breathing and sitting with and scanning for as little as five to 10 minutes, you start to become aware of the different places your body is holding tension that you previously weren't aware of.

Sensing is already getting rid of tension.

And tension and sensing cannot coexist.

Of course, it's a scale.

It's a teeter-totter.

But there are two phases of the same thing.

Release and sensing.
