Talk: 19840429-Larry_Rosenberg-UNK-learning_how_to_live_part_ii-1512 Leandra Tejedor Start_time: 00:28:24 Display_question: How can I do my job with more concentration, while at the same time, remaining efficient? Keyword_search: pay attention, autonomic process, efficient, work, concentration, IMS, daily life, awareness, walking, sitting, mediation, training ground Question_content: Questioner: I’m a word processor by profession, and I find if I pay attention to what I'm doing, I am not efficient as I should be. It's better if I let it become an autonomic process, and my mind takes off someplace seven miles away. How can I bring this process to that? Larry: Yes, but you see, everyone is a robot. You're doing it with your word processing, and the person next to you is doing it with the dishes, and a third person is vacuuming, totally in a stupor. See, I don't know the details of that work well enough, but it's possible to make that into a concentration device. In other words, to make it part of your meditation practice, by really doing it. See now, why… do you drift off? And in other words, you've learned it so well, that the body knows what to do. Isn't that also driving a car for many people? Not quite as extreme, perhaps. Questioner: But when I do bring my attention back to what I'm doing, I automatically slow down. I… Larry: Okay, let's not stereotype awareness. See… okay, I've said different things, in different groups. I don't remember where I said what, but okay, I didn't say it. Perhaps you didn't...one thing that could be very, very helpful for us, in daily life, is from time to time, asking yourself, what is my correct situation? If you're playing tennis, it's one thing. If you're walking, doing slow walking at IMS, it's another thing, if you're at a party, and there's a lot of alive dancing. The awareness will be somewhat different, in all of them. See I mean, you can't possibly have the same specific, minute, detailed attention, let's say having lunch with five friends, in a noisy restaurant. But what you can do is quiet down inside, and you're listening to people, and looking at them, and also eating, and tasting the food. It probably isn't as precise, and as one pointed, and as in touch, as when you're at IMS, when you have nothing else to do. See, this is like a training ground. Break_line: But you do what's appropriate there, so that you need a quality of awareness. That where things are just happening on it very, very quickly. It's not that you have to go running after them like that. You see what I'm getting at? Now, you will have to learn how to do it. But as you go deeper, and deeper into this, you'll see that awareness is there. And it can be. Anything can… everything comes into the awareness, in a sense. Everything is registering, that happens to us. All that we're doing, is helping that to become conscious. And it could be a wonderful approach for you… to use that. It can really steady your mind, and then you'll find that your sitting is stronger. Break_line: By the way, that's another point to be made. That is… the degree to which you start paying attention, in daily life, to let's say, washing the dishes, taking out the garbage, talking and listening. When you come back to the cushion, you'll see that you go deeper in the cushion. Not into the cushion, but into sitting. Unless you're an interior decorator, or an upholsterer, I don't know. And it goes the other way. As your sitting gets deeper, you'll see that it becomes a little easier, to pay attention, in daily life, unless you lock into the sitting, and make it an exclusive. This is sacred, and that's nonsense. Then you'll be incapacitated when you leave your little cushion. End_time: 00:32:05
