How can one attain this freshness?
It is the shortest meditation in the world. But you have to do it suddenly.
Walking on the street, suddenly you remember. Stop yourself. Stop yourself completely. Be still. Be present for half a minute. Whatsoever the situation, stop and just be. Then start moving again. Six times a day. At least.
Look at everything you pass as it for the first time. Make it a continuous attitude. Be it your wife or the husband, the burger or the movie, or even the emotions or the meditations. Touch everything as if for the first time. If you can do this, you will be freed of your past. The burden, depth, dirtiness, accumulated experiences – you will be frees of them. Every moment, every move from the past.
By constantly being in the present, you will slowly develop an affinity for it. Then everything will be new. Then you will be able to understand. All meditations try to get you to live in the present. This technique is one of the most beautiful and easiest.
