Have you learned how to Rest?

Now you know how to relax and focus as discussed in the previous posts. Now, we are ready to unite both mind and body in a state of zen alignment and enjoy resting. This is a reward you can get, and it is time to rejoice. 

you become everything

As you practice Zen alignment more and more, your body becomes entirely relaxed and light, like a feather, in the end. You may not even feel your body when you add energy practice. Your mind is clear and sharp, undisturbed by both negative and positive thoughts. Your mind is like the flat surface of the water, which is a mirror. Rest in this mind state makes you feel you are everything. You are switching to your identity to everything. This is important.

5 senses sleep, new perception arises

This is the state where you should take a rest during sleep, or even a tea break. If you experience this state during meditation practice, you may begin to experience resting in your pure consciousness, definitely not in a stormy ocean of thoughts.  In this mind state, it does not bother you even if you have a physical disorder or disease because you are distant from the sense of I. Fear and anxiety cannot enter this sacred state of the mind. We are very fortunate to get the key to enter this place. We just need to open the door and rest when we need to. Where is the key? Let’s go find in practice.
