My comment, our comment, to you is "well done". You have stuck with this program since its [[inception]] . You have tackled many [[concepts]] foreign to you, and you have grown through this [[process]] and have conquered much of this subject matter and have grown as a result. It is all that we could have [[hoped]] for or asked when we began this [[process]], and we are excited and elated at your progress. We simply desire to be more [[perfect]], to grow towards perfection in this process as in all processes. Therein you may be helpful to us.

It is witnessed your alertness to our [[encouragement]] that you [[practice]] [[stillness]], and we also [[discern]] your willingness to apply your mental [[abilities]] toward [[comprehension]] of the [[meanings]] expressed to you through the teachings of [[the teachers]]. There is a time in the normal and healthy [[cycle]] of the mental environment that you let your mind be at [[play]], to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_association_%28psychology%29 free associate], to not be concerned over evaluative [[judgments]] of [[worth]], to let the activity of mind be restful. In doing so, you will [[discover]] rising to the surface previously unconsidered [[ideas]] that you would not have dredged up through a concerted and [[disciplined]] mental probing. So, I encourage you to be [[playful]], to let the mind go, to let it romp in the playground. The musicians among you [[understand]] how often it is in the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jam_session jam] with other musicians that a new hookline appears that makes for a new [[song]] that is not necessarily [[discovered]] by deliberately sitting down to [[compose]] a hookline. The [[mind]] at [[play]] is the rearrangement of [[potentials]]. The mind at [[work]] is the application of potentials. The mind in [[stillness]] is an event that has no [[comparison]].
