Breathing gets conditioned by how we live our lives – energy can be mottled and unbalanced. It is a signifier of the heart. We can take time during retreat to take samādhi as a way of life, unifying body, heart and mind to bring into fruition the factors of awakening.

To meditate refers to placing the mind on a conducive object. There are functions that support meditation: vitakka –applied thoughtfulness/consideration; and, vicara – reflective evaluating, taking in the effects of what we apply ourselves to. Various applications of vitakka-vicara are reviewed, from the 5 indriya to mindfulness of body and breathing.

Keep in mind, attention is on breathing rather than a breath – a process, not a specific thing. Making use of vitakka-vicara, linger and pick up the quality of breath-energy as it moves through. Hold the form, keep the inquiry, remain in the present moment. What is the breathing now?
