The duty of presence lives in the beholden,

The world I live and breathe.

Mindful gazing is a form of meditation where you focus your attention on your gaze,

Either on an object,

In nature,

Another person,

And even your own reflection.

It involves being attentive and present of your visual experience,

Including any thoughts or feelings that arise,

And with a sense of curiosity and non-judgment.

This practice can help calm the mind,

Enhance focus,

And deepen your connection with yourself and others.

It's about cultivating a mindful state where you can feel grounded and focused in your body and in the present.

It is a peaceful way to calm your being and refocus your energy.

In mindful gazing,

You can be self-reflective.

You may also choose to gaze in the absence of thinking.

You may notice and then sit with any discomfort as a way of holding greater presence.

You may willingly cultivate compassion and understanding for yourself and for others as you hold presence to what you experience.

Find a comfortable posture where you can be still for the next several minutes.

I invite you to remain alert and awake.

Notice all of what enters your experience.

This is a practice of presence,

Of deep and subtle awareness,

Of the envisioning in your mind all of what you live and breathe.

Find an object or a scene in nature where you can place your focus.

The practice is a simple easing of mindfulness.

There is no real effort,

Only the willingness to focus in the present moment.

Gaze lovingly.

Notice.

See what you have not seen before.

You are holding witness to the possibilities of what you discover.

Gazing is an act of presence.

Let your gazing absorb your full attention.

Let your gazing absorb your full attention.

Let it hold you present.

You may notice sounds.

You may notice other new sensations.

You may notice other new sensations.

You may be attuned to a thought or a feeling and then to simply return to the place in which your eyes observe.

Gazing.

Notice when you blink.

Allow yourself to focus.

Allow yourself to focus.

Focus gazing the emerging ease of presence within you.

Feel your body.

Soften into the present.

Soften into the present.

Let your breaths be easy.

Feel the witnessing of the present.

Feel the witnessing of the present.

Notice the contradiction,

The change,

The moments,

Each one deliberate.

Observe the tender gazing of what is.

Namaste.
