this two or three times, every night and morning, and slowly increase the number of répétitions. (4) Try to transfer ail bodily sensations to the Ajna, e.g., “I am cold” should mean “I feel cold”, or better still, “I am aware of a sensation of cold” — transfer this to the Ajna, “the Ajna is aware”, etc. (5) Pain if very slight may easily be transferred to the Ajna after a little practice. The best method for a beginner is to imagine he has a pain in the body and then imagine that it passes directly into the Ajna. It does not pass through the intervening structures, but goes direct. After continuai practice even severe pain may be transferred to the Ajna. (6) Fix the mind on the base of the spine and then gradually move the thoughts upwards to the Ajna. (In this méditation Ajna is the Holy of Holies, but it is dark and empty.) Finally, strive hard to drive anger and other obsessing thoughts into the Ajna. Try to develop a tendency to think hard of Ajna when these thoughts attack the mind, and let Ajna conquer them. Beware of thinking of aMy Ajna”. In these méditations and practices, Ajna does not belong to y ou; Ajna is the master and worker, you are the wooden monkey. 414 —
