Listening, we do not hear. It is as if we were deaf. Loving, we do not feel. It is as if we were dead. Preoccupied, we do not notice the reality around us.
Life swiftly passes by.
Before we know it, it is gone. The breath is in the moment. Feel the tactile sensation of breathing, not the thought of breathing. But it is important not to attach again to the new things that continually arise. No matter what you attach to, it is a delusion, because it involves duality, separation.
