Excerpt
Waking Up
Will is a broad term referring to the motivating force behind an activity. In humans, this motivating force is capable of evolving through several operational realms—instinctual, emotional, moral, self-determined, and transcendental. This evolution, however, is not inevitable. Many individuals, and even whole societies, become entrapped in one operational realm of will, which eventually can become the dominant influence on their choices in life. To avoid getting into a purely abstract understanding of will, please do the following exercise, and pay particular attention to the motivational force that is making the choices and decisions.
Awakening the Will
The will awakens slowly from sleep. At first it feels overwhelmed by the turbulence of thoughts that buffet it. Its initial attitude is: “Just tell me what you want, and I’ll do it.”
Objective: To decrease mind drift, daydreaming, self-criticism, indoctrinated thinking, by awakening the will.
Expected results: Calming, perceptual changes, increased awareness.
