Tillnow, the second week, it seems to me helpfull to reduce the amount of reading. The left volume focused the themes for last and this week – for me.
And the second change, the style of investigation and doing exercises is also refreshing: now, I work more during the whole day with TSK.
In the last days I worked with the objects of Ex. 7 and specially with the transitions betw. body-mind, body-thoughts etc. David´s notice(Oct. 15th) “….,awareness feels like a liquid medium…”unfolded my own awareness with this processes. What´s coming up first? Body reactions, ideas, understanding, feeling? As if “understanding” is on the end of this chain of occurencies. No, I also can start with thinking and observe after that what happens on body-“level”.
One example: I listened again to our last phone-call. Of course, one explanation is my inadequate knowledge of English. But listening again, I understood much more than first time! This is a case of repeating and speed of speaking. In my own language, most people are speaking too fast, brain capacity, my brain process is very slowly – if I try to being aware of this “liquid medium”. This flow into my mind causes an ongoing effect. My experience was a repeatingly opening, during the whole day. And particularly occurs my perception of the high speed of speaking, thinking, answering. My body reactions were much more slowly. On the one hand, on the other hand often I thought about your used term “multidimensionality”. How is the functioning of this – sometimes simultaneous?
