Now concentrate your attention on the Centre of Peace (located in the front part of the head) and suggest to yourself:

  • The spirit of non-attachment is developing.
  • Attachment to material objects is waning.

Repeat the above aloud nine times, and then repeat it mentally nine times.

Contemplate upon the following:

I know the nature of matter. It is useful for me. It offers me a great many conveniences, but not happiness and peace.

Happiness and peace are inherent in me. I resolve that I shall not be attached to matter and that I shall always keep alert and awake as regards my inner potential.
