On Page One Hundred Sixteen, Sayadaw gets into the first two types of nimitta, concentration and meditation. First,Preparatory sign: The natural breath is a nimitta, also the touch point of nostril and upper lip are nimitta. He says when the concentration begins to get strong, a smoky grey appears around the nostrils. BUT as we remember, it could also be an umbrella.
Taken up sign: The grey becomes like cotton wool, and then whiter, and it may change shape or object depending on perception.
