free your mind padwan biscuit

a method came to mind for creating a calm mind.

a calm mind meaning, thoughts being present from only you.

each of the following challenges requires the previous challenges.

i.e. challenge 2 requires challenge 1…. challenge 3 requires challenge 1 & 2.

challenge 1

draw a 1" / 24mm black circle on a piece of paper.

sit on the floor with your spine straight.

tape the dot on paper at eye level on the wall, door, table.

the challenge while sitting with spine straight,

stare and focus on the dot,

no shifting of body or eyes,

for one hour / 60 minutes.

may take a few days to be successful.

then do 1 hour on each of 3 sequential days, i.e. monday, tuesday, wednesday.

challenge 2

in a normal 24 hour period,

do not think or say in english, or other languages, the words that reference,

I, me, mine.

when successful, do for 3 sequential days.

challenge 3

sit on the floor with your spine straight.

with closed eyes.

do this for one hour.

instead of observing a dot on paper.

observe the thoughts that arise in your mind.

when you are able to identify a single thought,

ask it "where do you come from?".

repeat each day until it answers.

understand the answer.

proceed to the next thought you can identify.

repeat for each thought to gain control of the mind.

eventually, the mind will have no thoughts to ask the question.

this is a calm mind, only your self directed thoughts are present.

once you are here, no further practice of any of the 3 challenges is needed.

completed successfully, not only will you have a calm mind,

there will be more cognitive doors made available to you.

that, annnnnd… well, some other curious non-harmful benefits.

you will notice some of them shortly after completion.

consider: if your mind is not forever processing thoughts from non-you origin, what % of mind becomes available?
