PURE MIND as Me — The Healing Power of Naming Awareness

For the part of me that remembers awareness even in the midst of feeling.

1. The Moment of Recognition

Sometimes, when we suffer — when fear, anger, or despair fill the heart — a simple phrase can open a doorway:

“Pure Mind … and fear.”
“Pure Mind … and anger.”
“Pure Mind … and sadness.”

In that moment, the naming of Pure Mind places awareness first. The emotion is still there — real, felt, human —
but it is now held within the vastness of awareness itself. Instead of being inside fear, you become the
space in which fear appears.

2. What Happens When You Say “Pure Mind … and Fear”

When you invoke Pure Mind, you are remembering the unseen field of consciousness that is always present.
You’re not pushing fear away or pretending it’s gone; you are seeing it from the clarity of the mind that is not afraid.
This interrupts identification and returns you to your original nature — awareness itself.

3. Why This Works — The Inner Alchemy

1. Recognition — saying “Pure Mind” reminds you that awareness is primary.
2. Inclusion — adding the emotion (“and fear”) allows wholeness, not rejection.
3. Transmutation — awareness doesn’t fight emotion; it purifies it through inclusion.
4. Freedom — as the emotion dissolves into the field of knowing, you sense a living peace underneath.

4. Is This Purification or Understanding?

Both. When you stay present as Pure Mind, emotions reveal their wisdom. Awareness purifies by seeing clearly and loving
completely. Understanding arises not from thinking about the feeling, but from being the space that feels.

5. The Practice — A Simple Daily Way

Step 1 — Pause: When an emotion arises, stop and feel your breath.

Step 2 — Name Awareness: “Pure Mind … and [whatever is here].”

Step 3 — Allow: Let awareness and the emotion coexist in the same space.

Step 4 — Rest: Stay until the emotion softens or reveals peace.
