Next time you meet a pet or a child with big eyes--some thoughtful-looking pre-verbal creature--try dropping the boundary of self and establishing the mind-meld love vibe. You need not look directly at little thing; only dissolve the heart into local space. You will inevitably see them react by looking back at you, or making repeated side glances. Occasionally there will be the impression of communication-- bewilderment and anxiety are common concerns among the small and powerless.
You need not wait until after a sesshin to try this, but it feels more normal and less hokey then.
