The practice of no focus

"focus on not focusing but realising that even not focusing is still an attempt at focusing .. leaving you with no awareness" 

 

by confirmation, i mean ... 

a) have you tried the practice 

b) did you get the results from the practice

To focus on not focusing is to relax.
That is what 'surrender' means.


Bearing with the conditioned in gentleness, fording the river with resolution, not neglecting what is distant, not regarding one's companions; thus one may manage to walk in the middle. H11L2

@Aakash sounds like a Zen koan in practice. Would definitely lead you in the right direction :)

@tsuki I agree, with the word play but i don't want to confuse language for what i'm talking about 

to focus, is an action an action aware of 

to not focus, is an action aware of 

to relax , is an action aware of 

to surrender , is an action aware of 

do you intuit how this is wrong for the practice?

One tip. You can't outsmart yourself. Every intention you make it is your mind. Even to be aware of the mind is an intention created by your mind. You can't escape this. It's the limitation of the mind.

@TheAvatarState what does that mean ? 

It's a practice designed to arrive you at "mu." Like a Zen koan. With one change, it leaves you with pure awareness. I haven't done the practice, fyi

@Salvijus there you go, now your starting to catch on. 

See the problem now ? , the limitation is made up 

the mind is made up 

now see the possibility ? Of what buddha meant by nirvana and why he did what he did ?

@AakashOmg how You wraped up your mind in a loop.

Here follow this. Bookmark it. 

Meditation every Day for the rest of your life. 

It Will build up slowly. One day You Will realize directly answers to all your questions. 

You Will not need Leo, Nahm, Winter soldier (? Omg It's funny), me or whoever. We were You the whole time.

Your very own Source lightens path Before You. So take it and Yes You Will Meditate and meditate until it finally comes.

@TheAvatarState

Yes I sorta get what your trying to say. Except you never arrive at mu, the practice is itself unattainable. 

To arrive is to go from this is why it’s not mu or pure awareness.

As in every action to awaken and every action with a controller of the action.

Hmmm...

But if every action is pointless and there's no controller, why does it seem quite the opposite?
