Hay-Ku of the Day (Self-Recognition Re-Minders)

Relaxing focus
Widens breadth of vision and
Extends focal length.

Opening focus
Expands breadth of vision and
Extends focal length.

Mental focal length
And breadth of vision are
The Saving Grace of All.

[Rich Note: This is a collection of self-recognition reminders was inspired by Bentinho Massaro's simple methodology of:  "For 2 to 5 seconds, 12 times a day relax your focus on thought and notice, tune in to, open to or focus on what remains" (your sense of "Presence, Being, Existence or I Amness").

The genius of this approach is that in shifting focus from thinking to one's sense of being, presence or existence, there is an implicit opening of the focus of awareness and extension of mental focal length; which, in turn, broadening mental perspective and increases objectivity.]

Practice:

Part 1:

Relaxing (or Opening) focus
And resting as this felt sense
Of Presence (or Being) I Am.

Relaxing (or Opening) focus
And merging with this felt sense
Of Presence (or Being) I Am.

Part 2

Shifting focus from
Thought to the Aware Presence
Of Being I Am.

Shifting focus from
Words (Self) to the Open Focus (Hearted)
Awareness I Am.

Shifting focus from

Shifting focus from
Being to the Transparent
Awareness I Am.
