🌿 CHAPTER SIX — Practices for Deepening PureMind

How to stabilize the smile, softening, and clarity

PureMind is both a recognition and a practice.
The recognition happens spontaneously — but the practice allows it to deepen, stabilize, and permeate your daily life.

Below are the core PureMind practices of this manual. Each can be done in 1–5 minutes.

1. The PureMind Breath

The simplest doorway

  1. Inhale softly and inwardly whisper:
    “Pure…”

  2. Exhale slowly and inwardly whisper:
    “…Mind.”

As you breathe:

  • soften your belly

  • relax your jaw

  • let your shoulders drop

  • let the phrase melt downward into your chest

Do not try to enter PureMind.
Allow PureMind to reveal itself.

2. The PureMind Pause

Returning in one second

Whenever you notice tension:

  • stop for a moment

  • feel your breath

  • silently say: “Pure Mind.”

  • let the softening happen

The pause is not a break from life.
It is a return to your real life.

3. The Inner Smile of PureMind

Place a slight, natural smile on your face — a quiet upward softening.

Then feel:

  • the smile behind your eyes

  • the smile inside your throat

  • the smile in your heart

  • the smile in your belly

This is not performance.
It is allowing the body to mirror the mind’s purity.

The “inner smile” is one of the most powerful PureMind antidotes to fear.

4. The PureMind Bow

A devotional softening

Gently tilt your head forward as if bowing inward.

This bow is not toward a person, deity, or concept.
It is toward the awareness that sees you.

A bow expresses:

  • surrender

  • openness

  • humility

  • devotion

  • gratitude

This gesture opens the heart instantly.

5. Resting as Awareness

The deepest PureMind practice

Do nothing.

Do not manipulate breath.
Do not chase states.
Do not contract around thought.

Simply rest as the one who is aware.

The less you try,
the more PureMind appears.

6. Body Softening Method

Say inwardly:

“Soft… soft… soft…”

Feel:

  • the belly soften

  • the heart soften

  • the throat soften

  • the jaw soften

  • the mind soften

Softness is PureMind’s door.

7. PureMind Inquiry

(Used with the 31 core questions)

Instead of trying to answer a question intellectually,
feel the question in your body.

This shifts awareness from thinking to knowing.

8. PureMind During Emotion

The highest form of practice

When a difficult emotion appears:

  1. Pause

  2. Say “Pure Mind” inwardly

  3. Let the emotion be held in the spaciousness

  4. Feel awareness around the emotion

  5. Allow it completely

The emotion will soften on its own.

This is PureMind healing.

🌿 CHAPTER SEVEN — Bringing PureMind Into Daily Life

Living from clarity, love, and presence

PureMind is not meant to stay on the cushion.
It is meant to shape your everyday experience.

Here are the core ways to integrate PureMind into daily life:

1. Speak from PureMind

Before speaking:

  • take a breath

  • soften your belly

  • feel the spaciousness inside

Then speak.

Words spoken from PureMind carry:

  • kindness

  • clarity

  • honesty

  • steadiness

You will feel the tone shift immediately.

2. Listen from PureMind

When listening:

  • feel the area around your heart

  • soften your face

  • widen your awareness

  • allow silence

Listen not only to the person’s words
but to the presence underneath them.

This transforms connection.

3. Make Decisions from PureMind

Ask:

“Does this feel open or tight?”

Openness = yes
Tightness = no

PureMind speaks through the body’s truth.

4. PureMind in Stress

When something triggers you:

  • stop

  • breathe

  • say “Pure Mind” softly

  • feel the awareness behind the reaction

  • let the reaction be held

Stress dissolves in PureMind
because PureMind does not resist life.

5. PureMind in Relationships

Practice:

  • soft eyes

  • soft tone

  • soft breath

  • soft belly

Softness is not weakness.
Softness is strength without aggression.

PureMind makes you safe for others.

6. PureMind in Solitude

Let moments of being alone become:

  • sanctuaries

  • replenishing

  • spacious

  • gentle

Sit, breathe, smile inwardly.

Meet yourself with awareness.

7. PureMind and Creativity

PureMind awakens intuition.
Creativity becomes:

  • effortless

  • inspired

  • guided

  • pure

  • joyful

When the mind is clear,
expression becomes natural.

8. PureMind and Work

Bring:

  • presence

  • care

  • groundedness

  • clarity

Your work becomes an extension of your practice.
