TESTIMONY

<< I felt heavy when I start heard the mantra. I think my body has been relaxed. It became natural to the seat of seize. It became a feeling that returned to mother’s womb. It was very comfortable and safe. I felt the sound and the sign around the mantra. When the mantra became intense, I was invited to the outside world. It was so sad and tears came out.But I don’t know what is sad.
And go back to listened to the mantra.
It became a feeling not seeing as it looked around. I was looking for a comfortable position.  As I was in my mother’s womb, I found the overturned posture and settled down. Infinite word remained in impression. I felt very comfortable in a safe place. I don’t know why I was doing these movement in the jam.
The movement to get the stimulus that the body wanted. I really want to repeated the favorite movement. And feel movement effect to my body. When the mantra was over, I felt like a waked up from very deep sleep. And I want to keep feel this feeling. I felt very pleasure and grad and sad. I was refreshed.
After got movie from today I see from out side and excited. >>
