  • Summary

  • Clarity meditation is a mandala meditation where are we focus our attention on an object. This isn't like Trataka meditation however, where we focus on a single point. Instead, we are resting our awareness on the entire object patiently, and noticing what arises as part of this experience. To practice this, it is best to use an object that has some meaning to you and is either shiny or translucent. This isn't essential, but it is helpful. As we rest our awareness on the object, thoughts and memories and sensations and the sense of the object itself, or whatever your mind associates with it, arises in your experience. These associations will, as you continue to patiently observe the object, arise and subside. Eventually, the essential visual elements of the object come more clearly into focus and the mental noise subsides. Finally, the mind will select a visual element of the object and all of the mental noise will diminish and finally subside entirely. What this exercise does, is to help us to become aware of how our minds project onto our environment almost all of the attributes of any object or person or experience or phenomena of any kind. Clarity meditation separates the common observable reality of colours, textures, shapes, contrasts, reflections and patterns from all the attributes that our minds project into our experience such as memories, thoughts, and sensory experience that is brought to the experience by our memory and programming. Clarity in meditation is the realization of the actual reality and what we personally bring to our experiences.
