Pillar 1 • Awareness: Basic Attention Management - Digital
“Peace of mind is not produced by pleas or supplication, but by achieving command of your own attention.”
—Harry Palmer, author of the Avatar® Materials.
Excerpt
Every being is endowed with a certain amount of attention. It appears that this amount varies from individual to individual and also varies in the same individual according to time and circumstances. Compare the condition of your attention after you have been up all night to when you have had a good night’s sleep and feel fresh.
This variation in attention has been observed in religion, philosophy, mental health, and, of course, self-improvement courses. The concerns are always pretty much the same: How can someone acquire more free attention or better use what they have. These concerns have spawned hundreds of mental processes and meditative techniques, but few, if any, have been as effective as the exercises taught in ReSurfacing®, Section I of The Avatar® Course.
