Rooms and Boundaries

The concept

• How does it fit in with the goals of enlightenment?
  • TODO
• How do Systems exercises help with this goal?
  • TODO
  • TODO - more
• How to approach each of these exercises
  • Sense how your perception of "here" can rely heavily on what Room you are in. There is a clear sense that other Rooms are not this Room. Feel that difference, and move your perception between
    • This Room
    • That Room
    • What contains both rooms
    • Are there other rooms related? What about windows, mirrors, etc?

Rooms

• Every time you cross through a doorway, encourage an immediate awareness of the boundaries of the new room you are in. Feel the space to the furthest corner, stopping that awareness at the ceiling, walls, and floors. Notice the difference in quality between rooms of different sizes and shapes.

Doors and windows

• Notice the difference in perception between open doors (including doorways without doors), closed doors, and windows (including any transparent door)

Mirrors

• Very close to rooms, but has other types of things you can do

Television

• Another type of room
