    Thanks a lot for the adivce, Rawn. I'm sticking at it and hope I'm
    making progress little by little. One more query though; at the
    moment with the VOM exercise, I haven't been setting any sort of
    time limit like I did with the previous two exercises for which I
    used to set an alarm to go off after ten minutes. I found that this
    focused my mind for those exercises. With this exercise though, I
    find I need time to prepare mentally before trying the VOM exercise
    and so I don't set an alarm. Should I stop the exercise as soon as
    my mind is distracted? Or should I count my distractions and record
    then? If I should count then, would you recommend using the
    beads/knots technique outlined later on my Bardon?

    I'm finding the objective of this exercise a lot harder to grasp, a
    lot vaguer and I don't think that is helping me. I keep asking
    myself WHAT is vacancy of mind? Not having distractions? Not having
    any thoughts at all? If it's the latter, then maybe me not
    remembering what has been running through my head is a good sign,
    because how can we remember what we were thinking if we are not
    supposed to be thinking?

    Can anyone help me to untangle these mental knots?

    Thanks a lot,

    Martin

    P.S. Rawn, I posted a translation of the Spanish message in the e-
    bardon forum.
