Sometimes the preparation to the meditation - that is, reminding of the four guidelines, going through the six points, and easing attention from the periphery, sounds, body sensations, breath sensations in totality, and the sensations at the tip of the nose - feels slippery.

I can’t hold onto the preparation and I find myself already with the breath at the tip of the nose when going through the six points, like the breath is already at the background, or maybe even the preparation is at the background, not sure.

    I have the book in epub format and searching for strings is very easy, but thank you anyways!

      you can also search in pdf format, which, btw, is superior.

          Each has different pros and cons, so each shines in different circumstances… but epub is superior. ;p

            obviously someone here hasn’t reached awakening, since he can’t see even the simplest truths. not even talking about universal ones.

              Before Enlightenment - argue about stupid stuff, after enlightenment - argue about stupid stuff.

              (I don’t know who said it first but there’s this line: “Before Enlightenment - do the laundry, after Enlightenment - do the laundry.” or maybe it was the dishes? I don’t know, man!)
