Breath is a Transparent Object

A man asks about focusing on the breath in meditation. Rupert suggests using the breath as a subtle, transparent object to help transition from the mind’s restlessness to pure awareness. He shares the Shankaracharya’s story of a servant who, needing constant tasks, is given a bamboo pole to climb, eventually resting at its base when exhausted. This illustrates the mind’s need for focus before settling into being.
