If you are engaging in this new cycle, you might be noticing a few things in your sitting:

• when outer movement quietens or organizes toward being centered and grounded, the dynamism of inner experience is there to notice freshly. Dynamism is movement without necessary motion.
• when one settles, energy settles. It also organizes to center or has the feeling of being grounded.
• As these settle and organize, mind does. That’s not new; we have called that experience Presence, for example. But, with this new cycle we can notice it all from a new angle.
• And, because of everything stated, awareness becomes forefront. One can settle in awareness. As one does, one’s shamatha with have new or fresh qualities.

Ah. And, we’re only beginning!
