The Power of the Dragon - Step Six

As a human, you are a bridge. You have to understand that.
Once you do, then you have to see it.
In order to do that, you ought to focus your attention on it.
And then, as you're seeing the bridge,
You can cross it.
But keep in mind there is no other side,
The point is only to enjoy the crossing...


The process of focusing your attention requires that you find first: the Focus of your Attention. This is absolutely necessary if you want to do two things: moving it and maintaining it on something.

Then you have to accomplish one of the highest feats a Warrior can perform. You have to move and maintain the Focus of your Attention on the bridge, and in the same time, moving it and maintaining it on the Unknown, if you want the walk to be an enjoyable stroll.

All of this is quite easy to say (and yet...), but in any case, doing all this is much more difficult. It implies unflagging practice and creative variations in order to be mastered. Both things you'll never reach without Intent.

Well! Here you are my young apprentice, at the bottom of everything; and those are your tasks:

The Mastery of Intent.
The Mastery of Attention.

Then you'll be able to master Awareness, and ultimately become a Seer...

So, what do you think?


- I'm lost!

Fine! Thus it begins...
