One Trommer I talk with says to put it all around yourself, generally meaning the body and space around it. I put up a lemon in front of me or some theme of a lemon or lemons and enlarge it and put it all around me 360. I stick with what Dennis says about not worrying if one cannot see it very well. I do feel a change of mass or energies when I put it around me 360 even though I do not totally see it and I'm a bit sloppy about making sure it is all around my body. I just sort of do a swirl around me as best I can. Just postulate it all around me.
To feel the peacefulness of quiet mind took about 8 hours over two days. Today when I woke up I started touching things until I felt I could do RI proper. The peacefulness of mind is not yet stable. Doing RI the way I did puts "thinking" in a whole new perspective. :-)
Thanks that was good. Sometimes it takes a lot just for a few minutes. Ri sort of reminds me of those nights i cant sleep when im imagining something ill be getting the next day or a project I want to do. It really wakes me up. I guess ri is different though putting it 360 around your body.
