It feels strange to be listening to myself. I hold guided 'Meditation For Relaxation' sessions at the university for the Welfare staff - caring for the carers - and the students. And I've just changed what I offer here at my centre - so, more 'Meditation For Relaxation' here on Monday evenings and Pureland services on Tuesdays.
While I was at The Buddhist House ten days ago I borrowed Dharmavidya's Sony digital dictating machine and sat in my bedroom, crooning the meditation into the microphone. I've made a master CD from this and just loaded it onto iTunes so I can copy onto more CDs and distribute to people who have asked for a copy they can use at home.
So now my Powerbook is playing it to me. The sound quality, which is my reason for listening, sounds good - much better than a tape I made a couple of years ago. I'm concentrating on checking that out, and trying not to react with embarrassed squiggliness to the sound of recorded me.
