HOW SAYADAW DISCOVERED SEEING AND LOOKING
Nobody taught me about seeing and looking meditation. Because I was always aware of the mind, suddenly, I recognized this process. Looking and seeing are obvious because the mind is seeing and looking all the time.
If you know the mind, you can know whenever the 6 sense doors are working. I tried to practice seeing and looking myself.
When I told my teacher about seeing and looking meditation, he said that many people forgot to practice this.
Whenever yogis practice, they close their eyes; so, they can never practice seeing and looking. I asked seasoned yogis who have practiced more than 20 years if they knew how to practice seeing and looking, they would say ‘No’.
