"The idea here is to immerse yourself in the feeling-tone of you and consciously access thought-free wakefulness in order to experience yourself with clarity. The practice is to be so unthinkingly in the now, so present, so involved with feeling what's actually happening now, that you override your conditioning about who you are--giving rise to a new experience of you.
Breath awareness during motionless sitting is one of the very best techniques for this..."
[from Eric Schiffmann, "Yoga: The Spirit and Practice of Moving Into Stillness"]
