One hour of concentration

in concentration •  3 years ago 

It is very interesting to see a writer write about the one-hour life without light (one hour without light) that he experienced.

In fact, I also have a lot of one-hour experience project ideas. Maybe an offline experience will be provided soon.

For example, in the wild, you find a flower, sit in front of it, and stare at the flower intently. With unprecedented attention, observe every detail of the flower, petals, stamens, and tiny creatures that live on the flower, treat the flower as a friend, talk to the flower, imagine it burrowed out of the soil and grow to what it is now The whole process.

In this process, be mindful. There are only flowers in your eyes, and your heart should focus on the flowers as much as possible. Don't be distracted. Or pull yourself back as soon as you lose your mind.

After sitting for an hour in front of the flower and spending an hour with this friend carefully, see how you feel.

For another example, sit down with an acquaintance or friend next to you, facing each other, with a distance of about 1 meter between them. For an hour, the two looked at each other, they couldn't turn their heads to look at it, and they couldn't lower their heads in thought. For an hour, they stared at each other all the way.

How will both parties feel during this hour? What do you think?

I once threw this idea to a beautiful post-90s MM. She said she was incredible about this idea. She said that she would definitely laugh and think wildly in her mind. I asked her what would she think? She said shyly, perhaps thinking of sex. She asked me again what would I think of? I said, if there is such an opportunity, I will stare at her deeply, I might not think of sex, because that is not what I want to imagine in this hour. I will observe her carefully, and I will think about her past and present life. I will think of her when she was born, I will think of her growing up, and of her old age. In short, in the eyes of each other, feel the gaze, and let this hour of time when the eyes are facing each other infinitely lengthen, let the imagination lengthen infinitely, and become a parade of Sansheng III. She listened to her eyes light up: "Wow, it's so romantic. 』

Of course I haven't tried it yet. If I have a personal experience after trying it in the future, I will write an article to share my actual feelings.

Maybe you think: "How boring you should be all day, thinking about games that are so useless and even seemingly stupid. 』

But I think these ideas are not boring at all, they are very interesting. Since we grew up, there are fewer and fewer opportunities to relax and pay attention to one thing. Maybe we are focused when playing games and when we chase the drama, but these are not counted, because there is an external attraction pulling our attention, just like the owner of the dog is pulling the dog. We must choose the objects of attention independently, and practice concentration within the prescribed time, and get an experience from the concentration, to see if this experience is different from what we imagined. If there is some kind of feeling that one did not expect, or some kind of enlightenment, then that is the meaning of this game.

Lao Lin, who is engaged in art teaching, said a lot of deafening things. Among them is a sentence that I said a few years ago, and I still remember it. He said: "Many of us live worse than a dog. Look at that dog. When you are happy, you should lie down on the grass, roll around for a while, and focus on playing with yourself. Many of us adults may not even have an hour of truly focusing on something in our lives. 』

Our usual attention is always distracted, or focused on some "useful" or addictive things. We have never spared our time and attention on things that seem useless. In fact, if you spend an hour practicing concentration, looking at a flower intently, and facing another person intently, the hidden psychological meaning of it may have never been explored.

In my imagination, such an hour-long game with four eyes together might make some people cry. Because there is no doubt that for many people, this is an experience they have never had in their lives. We have never spent more than an hour staring at a person intently, nor have we been stared intently for such a long time.

"One hour of concentration" can develop many experience projects. For example, I also thought of such a project: Put a completely strange man and woman in a completely dark room for an hour. During this hour, let them interact with each other only by touch, smell and sound. Perceive each other. What will be the result?

I threw this idea to the group of "pirate ships", and the pirate who had experienced life without light for an hour said that maybe during this hour, there were only a few awkward conversations between the two sides, and then spent this time in torment. .

Of course it is possible. But there are other possibilities.

Thinking of all these possibilities, I couldn't help laughing evilly.

No matter what, we may be able to deliberately try, one hour of concentration.
