Contemplative Close Reading
A repeatable way to slow down, compare a translation with its notes, and separate observation from interpretation.
Instructions
- Choose a short passage whose translator and rights statement are visible.
- Read once for structure and once for repeated words or images.
- Note one observation and one interpretation in separate lines.
- Return to the source notes before drawing a doctrinal conclusion.
Created for Scripture in Sound as a humanities-study method, not as a traditional Buddhist meditation.
