#227 — Knowing the Mind
Making Sense with Sam Harris
Mindfulness and Meditation
Nondual practices differ from the usual practice of mindfulness. People tend to close their eyes and try to pay attention to your breath. Most people will feel that their consciousness is a kind of locus attention in the head. They 're paying attention from some place, and it's very likely in their head,. And they can aim their attention at the object of meditation. If you're practising dualistically, it more or less always feels like there's a meditator, there is an subject who is paying attention. There's the subject, which is te e of awareness itself, and is the object of awareness - whether it's the breath or sound or whatever.
