What does,'I establish mindfulness in front of me' mean? This phrase 'I establish mindfulness in front of me' appears many times in Suttas (https://suttacentral.net/an3.63/en/bodhi) . What does 'in front of me' mean here. I can understand if it would have said within me as in mindful of body or breath. But its not clear to me, what 'infront of me mean'
Ven. Bodhi's translation of AN 3.63:

I collect some grass or leaves that I find there into a pile and then
sit down. Having folded my legs crosswise and straightened my body, I
establish mindfulness in front of me.

Ven. Sujato's translation of AN 3.63:

I gather up some grass or leaves into a pile, and sit down
cross-legged, with my body straight, and establish mindfulness right
there.

Piya Tan's translation of AN 3.63:

There I gather some grass or leaves together into one place and sit
down there cross-legged, keeping mindfulness before me.

Original Pali:

So yadeva tattha honti tiṇāni vā paṇṇāni vā tāni ekajjhaṃ saṅgharitvā
nisīdāmi pallaṅkaṃ ābhujitvā ujuṃ kāyaṃ paṇidhāya parimukhaṃ satiṃ
upaṭṭhapetvā.

Meaning of parimukha from PTS Pali-English dictionary:

Parimukha，（adj．） [pari+mukha] facing，in front； only as nt．adv．°ṁ in
front，before，in phrase parimukhaṁ satiṁ upaṭṭhapeti “set up his memory
in front” （i．e．of the object of thought），to set one’s mindfulness
alert Vin．I，24； D．II，291； M．I，56，421； S．I，170； A．III，92； It．80；
Ps．I，176 （expld）； Pug．68； DA．I，210．

I would say this means &quot;establish mindfulness at the foreground of my mind&quot; or &quot;establish mindfulness as my main focus or main activity&quot;.
