    Dear Johannes,

    >> I read through those papers but it is still a bit unclear to me. I
    can shut down the trains and the labelling of observances but then the
    pictures arise and distract instead. <<

    As you pursue the emptiness of mind (EOM) exercise you will naturally
    discover a sequence of different layers of "mind" or awareness. You
    will need to penetrate each of these layers. The method is similar to
    the first mental exercise in which you distanced your focus of awareness
    from participating with the myriad of thoughts and images that flooded
    the mind. In that exercise you observed them without participation and
    in time, the myriad of thoughts and images slowed without your conscious
    participation. Much the same thing occurs as you begin working with the
    EOM except that here, you should already have mastered that ability to
    distance yourself from the activity of the mind and should therefore be
    able to focus your awareness upon just being, instead of doing. In
    other words, with EOM your focus is not upon observing a mind filled
    with thoughts and images; but rather, it's upon observing a mind devoid
    of them. It is still observation / perception but here it is of an
    *empty* mind. This is why mastery of the first two mental exercises of
    Step One is so crucial to achieving EOM.

    You might also find the first three Lessons of my "Self-Healing
    Archaeous" audio series helpful in regard to understanding the structure
    of awareness (i.e., the mental body).
