I will give you the exact same thing that I read, like that I'm sure to not do any mistake.
Fixity
The technique is simple:
- Can you sit?
- Can you look?
- Can you breathe?
Ok then, if you think you can sit, look and breathe, then do just that! Nothing else.
Sit on a chair or cross-legged on the floor, look at the floor by fixing a point, and pay attention to your breathing. Easy enough? Try 20 minutes in a row, and you’ll discover yourself a bit. Most people to who we suggested doing fixity could not bare more than 5 minutes at first. In time, you get the hang of it and you can stare in fixity for an hour.
During the practice of fixity, don’t use any mantra or visualization. Don’t have background music. Don’t stimulate your mind in any way. The goal is to bring the mind to a rest. Simply pay attention to a point on the floor, and to your natural breath.
When you first train at fixity, your mind throws out the trash. Your mind will be pulling out any kind of stuff to try to get you out of fixity. Your eyes will start to move around uncontrollably, and your breathing might become harder. This is normal. Your mind is used to continuous stimulation, so it simply obeys the law of inertia, trying to perpetuate its movement. Whenever this happens, simply keep fixing a point on the floor, and relax your breathing.
When you notice your mind starts to follow a single thought, nourishing a mental fantasy, come back to your non-thinking attitude, and keep being aware of the stuff that your mind is pulling out. Simply come back to the simple thought of contemplating your natural breath moving up and down, in and out. While you are aware that your mind is throwing thoughts like
crazy, remain calm and at peace. The goal is eventually not to think anymore, but you have to accept that this is not the case at first. Try not to think, but don’t judge the thinking.
Before your mind stops, you will eventually go thru other stages of purification. Actually these are fun, and produce nice feelings inside your body. While doing simple fixity, contemplating your breathe naturally going up and down, your entire energy system is revitalizing. You might feel tingling sensations here and there. These are precursor to more impressive power surges from your nervous system, celebrating its new freedom.
Going further in any other explanation is useless, since it requires
the experience of it to understand it.
