Why we are there and then?

Clogged with information, the civilized world disables our consciousness, we nakatyvaya waves of advertising, noise, and immersing in the social.network. On “work” it only remains unconscious and automatic programs (instincts, habits, skills), so that we act like robots, for us lives in our bodies, skillfully programmed by nature to it.

We are easily able to fall out of conscious States, because we every day live in a familiar place, wear the same clothes, visited familiar places committed rehearsed operation, communicate with the same people. Our nervous system is the result of an iterative (repeated) repetition of memorized even looks like the sidewalk on the way home, and when You sleep in the bus, and then you Wake up and look out the window, we can on it (the sidewalk) to determine how many stops You have to go to your destination.

“Why, they asked, would You brain I strain, if I know everything? Everything is under control, go back to sleep”. And we sleep. We sleep, when our body is awake. Sleep while doing usual work, when you communicate with a loved one. We sleep because it's easier, without tension: not to think is not particularly necessary, nor to do something new or change something in yourself or your life (and it would mean – neural connections to reshape, breaking the previously formed(!) imagine how difficult(!), so the reaction is – is not, do not rush to strain, let's think and act as before, everything was fine, why are you begin…).

Brain took over the functions of the master, slaves who we become. Robin Sharma through his literary hero said, ‘the Mind – a wonderful servant but a terrible master".

• my name?
• How old am I?
• Where do I live?
• What am I doing here?
• what purpose I'm doing that now?

Please see your breath. Finding his rhythm, depth of inhalation and number of seconds of exhalation. Feel the rise and fall of the chest. Just breathe and allow yourself in this moment, in the place where You do this technique to stay in your breathing.
