Journey to Joy: Discovering the Middle Way : หน้า 28/376

Journey to Joy 28 is two finger-widths above the navel level. This is the true resting place of the mind and the starting point of the journey along the Middle Way. In this spot, the mind is at a completely neutral point, a private world unto itself. It is a tranquil corner where we are free from thoughts, worries, and fears. Here can be found the wellspring of purity that invigorates us to perform good deeds without fear or anxiety. Moreover, Luang Pu Wat Paknam was able to explain the method of meditation for attaining the Dhammakaya: "To stop is to succeed". This is done by leading the mind to rest, easily and comfortably at the seventh base of the mind. If the mind is still, it becomes clear and refined. We will reach the truth in ourselves.
