Breathing, Thought and the Mind


Breathing Thought and the mind

"breathing was the gateway to the mind. … 
Chinese had a saying that 

breathing is the reflection of one’s heart / mind.”

“Thought was like the inner breath of the mind whereas 
breath was the outer representation of the mind”

“The objective was to use the breath as the gateway (or “bridge”) to penetrate the mind.”
