Above the mind is upper mind which controls and reasons with mind. I have come to see the mind as both the mind spinning around the forehead and also the heart mind in the heart area. Both can be sensed and reasoned through the upper mind which is just above the crown level.
By using this upper mind you can develop a more constant awareness and start to see the triggers and the patterns pulling on the lower minds or forming in the minds. These patterns or impulses, desires and wants from in these areas. The mind thinks and the heart feels. This discerning mind can then stop you putting these thoughts feelings which are unnecessary or harmful into physical reality through action. These 2 areas constantly produce feelings or thoughts and using the upper mind you can start to see these as the passing whims.
Both need to become clearer and constant awareness helps to bring them under control and prevent them from exerting their patterns. This starts to clear the tangled web in these areas of attachments, wants, unnecessary thoughts. These thoughts feelings don’t seem to stop but they slow and this helps clarity. By not acting on them it reduces the confusion and simplifies life.
This increasing clarity and slower mind / heart should allow more light in from above the crown.
