Question
I would like to know what happens during certain periods of zazen. During zazen, all at once I regain awareness… So what was happening before that return to awareness? Because obviously we are not aware of it ;-) On standby? If so, I would like more details. I cannot be asleep, since the zazen posture is dynamic, and besides, when we start falling asleep, we quickly notice because we tend to slump forward. Thank you for enlightening me. Wishing you well.
