This didn’t work that well for me. The instructions at the beginning confused me a bit–I didn’t realize I should take the mind out of my skull and rinse it like a sponge–I needed that specific instruction.

The basis of this meditation is familiar to me from bare attention practice and watching the mind, but I’ve never been very successful with visualization.

I also don’t understand what ‘preside’ means. To me it has a connotation of ‘presiding over’ whereas I think of this practice as ‘being with.’

Hope this is helpful.
