I learned this Exercise while at the "est 6-Day" in 1983, in the Assistance Program. This is the only Technique that I use which requires Doing rather than just BEing and Imaging.

A: COMPLETING

 

1. Write down everything in your Life which needs to be Completed. Assess each item on the list for "the Truth about it." Are you or are you not *Truly* going to Complete that item - or are you Complete with it now?

2. Prioritize the remaining items in terms of Most Important to Least Important to Complete: A, B, C, D, and start with A--to do's first. If you find yourself doing lesser important items first, maybe you need to re-think your priorities. If your Most Important task seems overwhelming, then break it down into smaller steps to help yourself get started.

B: BEING WITH

 

1. For this Exercise you need a friend to assist you. Sit in chairs facing each other, so close together that your knees are touching the other's chair. In this way, sitting comfortably, your faces are only about 2/3 of a meter apart.

2. Set a timer for 10 minutes. Gaze, not stare, into your buddy's eyes. If you find your eyes wandering, just bring them back to gaze into your friend's eyes again.

3. Notice the Thoughts that roam through your Mind. Don't try to do anything about them. Just notice them and let them go. Don't try to think of anything, or not to think of anything. Just let the thoughts go by and notice them. Keep gazing into your buddy's eyes.

4. After 10 minutes, when the timer rings, pick "A"-person and "B"-person. "B" gets to Share first. Share all those Thoughts which had been roaming through your Mind - for 5 minutes. "A" get to *Listen*.

5. Then "A" gets to Share for 5 minutes, all those things that came up during the 10 minute gazing and also in response to "B's" Sharing. And "B" gets to *Listen*.

6. Then "B" get to respond to "A's" Sharing, while "A" *Listens*

7. Then "A" get to respond to "B's" Sharing, while "B" *Listens*

 

C: *WITHHELD* COMMUNICATIONS

 

1. If there is Anything that either "A" or "B" need to say to AnyOne, which has been *WithHeld* from that AnyOne, have your buddy BE that person for you.

2. -Say "B" has an unresolved Issue with "J".

3. "B" asks "A", "Please be "J" for me."

4. "A" agrees to be "J".

5. Then "B" proceeds to say EveryThing to "J(A)" that needs to be said. (don't be surprised if you can almost see "J's" face superimposed of "A's face)

6. If, after that, "B" still has AnyThing that needs to be said to "J", "B" needs to go to "J" and say it personally. (this works especially well for the deceased, except going to them personally afterwards, of course; for that do the "Relationships" T.o.L.)

 

It might seem silly to think that Clearing *WithHoldings* can *Create Space* for Others to BE in, but it's True. While at the "est 6-Day", one day the Participants spend mountain climbing. My work assignment was helping in the kitchen. One of the Staff came through after lunch and announced that there was a woman who was stuck at the top of the "zip-line", afraid to go down. The Staff lady asked if there was anyone who was *WithHolding* and Communications from another. As it turned out the assistant cook had a *WithHeld* Communication from that Staff lady about an earlier interaction. Soon after the Acknowledgement of the *WithHeld* Communication, and while they were still thrashing it out, the announcement came over intercom that the woman had gone down the zip-line.

Using the T.o.L.s goes much Deeper into the SubConscious and Soul Realms than anything in the above Exercises has to offer. Except, and I don't know how to explain, that Living our Lives in Integrity and not *WithHolding*, but keeping our Communications Clear, we CAN *Clear Space* for Others and the Planet!!! As we have already seen in the *Power of Prayer*!! It's kinda like the physics of building in matter: in order to build something, there must be a Void. You cannot put up a building where there already is one. The old one must be removed before the new one can be put up. *Clearing Space* and *Creating a Void* is precisely what this Exercise is about. It's about *Creating the Vision and Holding it*! But First! a Void must be Created to Hold the Vision in.

I don't know. Does that make sense? It's a Strong and Clear Feeling within me. I'm just not sure I explained it well......
