    Dear David,

    >> Speaking of applying one pointedness to every day life, what should I
    do when I go to sleep (and actually try to fall asleep)? Whenever I try
    to concentrate at that time - I can't fall asleep. In order to fall
    asleep I need to let my mind wander, so I find it difficult to apply
    Bardon's suggestion at bed time. <<

    :) Well then, if you want to sleep then the thing to do is concentrate
    on letting your mind wander.

    >> Or perhaps we are not supposed to apply one pointedness at that
    particular time? <<

    Or perhaps apply it differently. It sounds like you are trying to *do*
    or *control* instead of focusing upon what *is*. If sleep requires
    letting go of a controlling concentration (i.e., a type of concentration
    which doesn't allow for your mind to wander), then that's obviously an
    inappropriate form of concentration to apply when you wish to drift off
    to sleep.

    My best to you,
    :) Rawn Clark
