The characteristic feature of meditation is the maintenance of an uninterrupted flow of attention on a fixed point or region, without intervention or interruption. In meditation, psychological and chronological time come to a stillstand as the mind observes its own behaviour. The intensity of attention in the field of consciousness neither alters nor wavers, remaining as stable, smooth and constant as oil pouring from a jug. Maintaining the same intensity of awareness, the attentive awareness moves from one-pointed concentration to no-pointed attentiveness. *
