Attention is the key- Third day of my five minutes of silence.
01/13/2005 12:25 a.m.


The session commenced almost in the BRAMHA-MUHURAT (the auspicious time, when it’s easy to establish link with the WHAT IS.), a time when each of us is in the deepest of sleep, though It used to be my routine time to get up, once upon a time and I do believe that its easy to establish link between all our centers, namely, intellectual, mechanical, emotional and intuitive early in the morning. All creative artists and writer must wake up at 3AM, their normal time for retiring to bed. (Hahahah)
Yes, its 3.30AM now and I had woken up to wake up my nephew to go to station to receive and bring home my sister. Well, I decided to use this opportunity and commence my session.
Despite the BRAHMA MUHURAT my mind continued drifting from one thought to the other. From one thought associations to the other. And its here I realized once again, a realization I must have realized so many times.
We are not capable of DOING unless we succeed in UNDOING. As a matter of fact UNDOING is what is DOING in real sense. I cannot harness my ATTENTION unless I UNDO the happenings in the form of all those external and internal associations which tends to carry my attention away.
Oh! I am back to square one. I must remain alert and actively watchful to not let this happen. I must negate the what is negating ME.
I remember having written a poem almost on this central idea long ago which I need to read as a reminder.


ATTENTION is the KEY




ATTENTION is the KEY
And the doors of perception
Have no locks.

I spent a lifetime
Seeking a suitable key
Prying into every hole
In my endeavor to unlock the door.

There I found a split
While walking
UNWALKED into the space of time in NOTIME
The split was the DOOR
The keyhole.

I entered the DOOR
The other day
My attention INTACT

The NAGUAL spoke to me
Within
In silence.



By NAGUAL I mean, here, the guide within.
