WHAT TO DO WHEN THE MIND BECOMES CALM
Yogi: When the mind turns calm, nothing happens. I just check my breathing and the body.
Sayadaw: When the mind becomes quiet, check which is the object and which is the awareness. Can you see?
They are different – when you watch the breath, you know the breath as the object, but do you know the awareness? When you watch the other sensations, you know the sensations are the objects, do you know the awareness? So, check all these.
And also when there are thoughts, do you know the thoughts and do you know the awareness?
