On page Forty-Four, emphasis is again placed on awareness of the 'long and short' of breathing, the simple awareness of the duration.
After some unspecified time in this awareness, Sayadaw suggests that the nimitta, a 'sign' born of the practice, will appear. If it does not, he suggests going to experiencing breathing of the 'whole body', and if it still does not appear, go to the calming of breathing.
I would like to have a nimitta to call my own. Is it like my cat?
