Where Is Concentration In Your Teachings? - Yogi Explains

Summary

, 12 min

Why concentration is approached indirectly: forceful focus awakens the predatory left brain and fails. Like the Karate Kid's wax on, wax off, HRV resonance, sitting very still, the Four Proofs and the Five Breath States build it without naming it. Also names whole mind concentration, balancing the conscious mind with slower brainwaves, as Hakalau does.
