i sat in the pose the deeper i went within. often just as i was really getting somewhere deep in meditation the break bell would ring and i had to make a choice, break this or skip the break! i am so glad i pushed myself and skipped breaks and meals it felt only right, plus i lost my appetite the entire time i was there. nothing was more important to me then delving deeper, certainly not food. i had quickly realized i made the right decision, my legs and arms soon felt like they no longer existed, then my body and then there it was… no body or mind.
