"do not attach" meditation

This meditation is very simple. While meditating, quiet your mind, focus on your breath, then detach. do not allow your awareness to attach itself to "you". let it float, free, unattached, egoless. don't allow the thought that "you" are meditating to enter your mind. this may seem strange, but it takes things a bit deeper than just being silent. "you" being silent is still grounded in, rooted in your notion and concept of self. allow your awareness to plunge below that, to the earliest awareness of life and being, before you knew your name. before you knew what life was, before you knew what was going on and began to integrate these ideas into what you now have created for yourself which is known as "you". This is a meditation that you can do at any time. whether walking, or eating, you can "be" without being "you" or retreating to your ideas, your concept, your construction of who or what you are. This allows your "in the present" meditation to deepen on a deeper level.
