III. Deepening Exercise-Body Sensations The body sensations exercise is so

simple, in fact, as to prove disillusioning. To advance in it, you have to

preserve in simplicity. Resist temptation to seek novelty, but try to seek

DEPTH. You have to practise second exercise over a long period of time. You may

ask for benefits. Don't ask. Do what you are asked to and you will discover

yourself. TRUTH is found less in words and explanations than in action and

experience. So get to work, with faith and perseverance. Close your eyes. Repeat

previous exercise of body sensations for five to ten minutes.

 

NOW CHOOSE JUST ONE SMALL AREA OF YOUR FACE, PICK UP EVERY SENSATION. At the

beginning you may not feel. Continue previous exercise, then enter in this area.

Be aware of the type of sensations that emerge; itching, pricking, burning,

pulling, vibrating, throbbing, numbness....... If your mind wanders, bring it

patiently back to exercise.
