For example, at some point you may suddenly realize you no longer know whether the sensations you’re currently observing correspond to the in- or the out-breath. You also realize that you could know in an instant, but would have to intentionally shift attention away from the sensations to the conceptual formations of the mind. Other times, you may suddenly realize that the place where the sensations seem to occur no longer corresponds to where your nose is. The breath seems way off to the side, or above or below where it should be.
