As I Focus My Attention the World Around Me Comes Alive

I disrobe and close my eyes. I simply notice my body, with that intention, the awareness is allowed to travel, making its own itinerary. Soon enough, it glances about to its surroundings and back. The naked body remains the basis of awareness of existence.

I focus on the sensations and the details. Similarly, the world becomes more vivid when I focus on its many details. As I concentrate, my senses come alive.

Then with eyes open, colors are brighter, sounds sharper, and everything that touches my skin –a loving touch, the warmth of a fire, a gentle breeze, heightens my perception and anchors my awareness in the present moment.

My focus enlivens my inner world as well. Time spent in mindful contemplation floods my awareness with the grandeur of so many small things. I notice the feelings, the inner transformations, the raw physical sensations of emotions alone without mind. Now I open my eyes and turn my ears to the divine, as it is expressing all around me, as magnificent beauty and wondrous diversity. All of it, simply right here, right now.

The more I focus my attention fully without the dialog, the more easily I discern the divine expressing all around me. I know that I am of that.

Now, as I walk on in primal nudity in naked nature, it is as I began this experience, anchored with the natural sensations of body.

Just give this a try.

Next week, a story about hiking to the ancient House on Fire.

I am on the forum of FreeRangeNaturism.com often, if you would like to converse.
