1 Apply this idea in the same way as the previous ones, without making
distinctions of any kind. Whatever you see becomes a proper subject for
applying the idea. Be sure that you do not question the suitability of
anything for the application of the idea. These are not exercises in
judgment. Anything is suitable if you see it. Some of the things you see
may have emotionally-charged meaning for you. Try to lay such feelings
aside, and merely use these things exactly as you would anything else.
2 The point of the exercises is to help you clear your mind of all past
associations, to see things exactly as they appear to you now, and to
realize how little you really understand about them. It is therefore
essential that you keep a perfectly open mind, unhampered by judgment,
in selecting the things to which the idea for the day is to be applied.
For this purpose one thing is like another—equally suitable and
therefore equally useful.
