* Enter a mindful state, and acknowledge that the television is a source of light, motion and sound in the room you are in. Mindfully notice the shape of your own room, what objects are in the room giving off sound and light or moving. For example, an overhead fan is providing a breeze, a gentle sound, and constant motion. Notice that the television is merely another object in the room, with no more significance than things like a fan or a lamp. | * Enter a mindful state, and acknowledge that the television is a source of light, motion and sound in the room you are in.

The Landmark of Experiment with Mindfulness and Television invites you to experience Mindfulness in another way to discover that Experience the Now is more complicated than just recognizing sights and sounds, it also means paying attention to your own mind, and in this case particularly how your own mind is perceiving and reacting to The Now. This Landmark is within the Realm of Engagement, and is part of the Beacon of Attention, more specifically the Lens of Mindfulness. <ul><li>Property "Beacons" (as page type) with input value "{{{Beacons}}}" contains invalid characters or is incomplete and therefore can cause unexpected results during a query or annotation process.</li> <!--br--><li>Property "Lenses" (as page type) with input value "{{{Lenses}}}" contains invalid characters or is incomplete and therefore can cause unexpected results during a query or annotation process.</li> <!--br--><li>Property "Realms" (as page type) with input value "{{{Realms}}}" contains invalid characters or is incomplete and therefore can cause unexpected results during a query or annotation process.</li></ul>
