attention on breath - we breathe the details of the experience, life touched to lips, and drawn deep to body, released again to air. Yet this alone is not the way to our enlightenment. To be mindful of any quality serves only the moment of attention, our own awakening is simply the shift beyond the moment to the quiet presence that allows this all to happen. True enlightenment is not an experience, it is not a passing state of a concentrated mind - it's only awareness, awake to itself, empty, and serving as the capacity to hold the world. No attention is needed - once seen, all we have to do is be what we are.

This is it. There are no hidden meanings. All
that mystical stuff is just what's so.
