3 1/2 hours reading Damasio

favorite quote —>  “We all have free access to consciousness, bubbling so easily and abundantly in our minds that without hesitation or apprehension we let it be
turned off every night when we go to sleep and allow it to return every
morning when the alarm clock rings, at least 365 times a year, not
counting naps. And yet few things about our beings are as remarkable,
foundational, and seemingly mysterious as consciousness. Without
consciousness-that is, a mind endowed with subjectivity-you would
have no way of knowing that you exist, let alone know who you are and
what you think.” – Damasio

May 5th

1 hour: researching different methods of meditation

             during this hour i have begun research on finding the best form of meditation for me. i have decided throughout this week i will devote myself to the meditation aspect of this project.

2 1/2 hours: exploring mindfulness meditation

             researching the form of “mindfulness meditation.” it is described as the child to Zen meditation. Mindfulness meditation is described to be used as a tool to “give us exactly this opportunity to become more present with ourselves just as we are”

2 hours: trying to actually “mindfully meditate” (based off of previous research and guidance videos watched)

2 hours: researching chan meditation

Chan mediation is described as being the filter in which to gain a clear “attainment of an absorbed, concentrated state of mind”

“The principle of Chan is taking body and mind from a state of confusion and disparity through a condition of one-mind to the experience of no-mind (or no-thought). This is the result of letting go of one’s clinging attachment to the sense of “I,” and to the illusion of the permanence of the self and phenomena…”
