My lesson is concerning the [[stillness]]. It is easy to [[achieve]] if you are [[diligent]] and [[steadfast]] in your application of the following [[ideas]]:

*1.  The [[stillness]] requires just that--stillness. It is most important to still the [[body]] in order to gain a quietness for the [[mind]] to be allowed to begin its quieting [[process]]. Any position is acceptable, of course; it matters not. Stillness and [[relaxation]] of the limbs, eyes, face, hands, and feet, this will help facilitate stillness in the [[brain]]. That is, the electrical impulses coming from the extremities are lessened, and therefore, the electrical activity within the brain itself becomes less.

*2. Then the surroundings should be quiet. Stimulation from the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Senses#Audition auditory] [[sense]] is most distracting and should be eliminated if possible.

*3. Mental stillness, this particular aspect of this [[practice]] is the most difficult to achieve. Many of you are, however, making great progress and strides in this section. Mental stillness is essential for [[Thought Adjuster]] [[communication]]s to be received.

There is a [[metaphor]] in these teachings, of still water reflecting the sun. When the water (the [[mind]]) is turbulent, this [[reflection]] is splintered, broken into myriad [[refractions]]. In the [[ideal]] stillness, for [[clarity]]'s sake, the mind must, absolutely must, be still. Deep [[relaxation]], mental stillness, will, without fail, result in increased [[Thought Adjuster]] communication if you are patient and willing to commit this [[time]].
