Introduction

Every member, before they request their advancement as Knight, should watch this movie at least once. It will give you the most important aspect of your mind training. The exercises below will amplify your ability to think, focus, concentrate, so that you can create your life like you wish even more.

#1 To start, you need a small white object, preferably a rock (up to an inch in size) and a square black cloth, no larger than a standard sized wash cloth. Place the object in the center of the cloth. Next, stare at the white object, trying to keep your eyes from blinking or roaming about the cloth. Just relax, breathe normally, and look at the object in the center. If you catch yourself thinking, just label it as "thinking", try to clear your mind, and go back to focussing on the white object . If you can stare unblinking for 3 minutes or more, you're making excelent progress. The purpose of this drill is to develop the ability to focus your mind on a single thing, and to be able to direct you thoughts without distarctions.
