The Neutral Mindset

Neutrality creates a natural possibility for a change, a shift in energy or a solving of the problem. To create neutrality in your place of meditation, take time to relax into stillness. Through your grounding, release your cares and concerns. When you are settled into your space begin to imagine a neutral mindset. Postulate that your mind is neutral. Like much of clairvoyance, this is experiential. Describing it is simple, and in fact doing it is simple. But until you actually try it, you will not know that.

So go ahead and try that now. Stillness. Grounding. Neutral mindset. Without forcing the thoughts, establish for yourself that you have neutrality. Affirm and validate within your mind that you are in a state of neutrality. As you do this notice how your body relaxes even further. Notice that your breathing automatically shifts to a longer and deeper breathing pattern. Your mind quiets even further and time sitting in meditation seems to slip away easily.

One of the benefits of the neutral mindset is the ease that it brings to the act of meditating. You will find yourself in a deeper more serene meditation. This will carry over into your day after the meditation is complete. And at some point, after you have been doing this exercise regularly, you will find that you are able to enter into a neutral mindset at any moment. When the heat of a tense moment starts to flare up, when you need to see a situation clearly, when you feel the pressure of someone making demands of you, you will have at your disposal the joint practice of immediately becoming grounded and going to a neutral mindset. Your decisions will be clearer and the outcome will more favorable than if you were not using these basic skills.
