Waiting for the conch
For newcomers to yamabushi, waiting for the conch can be a true challenge.
The conch is used kind of like an alarm clock, only you don’t know when it’s going to go off.
If you get caught up in waiting for the conch, you can very easily literally lose sleep over it.
The key is to essentially forget it exists. Know in advance what you need to do when it does, even do ‘image training’ when you picture yourself doing it, and then just sit back and relax.
Or enjoy the moment before it is blown.
Up to you really.
