Vijnana Bhairava Tantra · Dharana 39 · Verse 62
Between one thing and the next
When attention lets go of one thing—a thought, a mood, an object—do not let it jump at once to the next. Hold it gently in the space between. In that middle ground, with nothing yet taken up, a deeper awareness begins to open.
Older line
When the mind has let go of one thing and is held back from moving to another, it comes to rest in the middle. Through that middle state, a deeper awareness blossoms.
