The mind is quick to judge because of pleasant and unpleasant sensations. We should watch the pleasant and unpleasant sensations until they become neutral, then only we think.

We can think neutrally only when the mind doesn’t react to the sensations. The neutral state of mind can understand the meaning of ‘as it is’. That is why we watch the feeling until the pleasant or unpleasant feeling becomes neutral. That neutral mind can understand ‘as it is’. There is a relationship between mind and object – the state of mind can see its related kind of object.

We can watch our feelings continually because the mind judges all the time. Like when watching pain, we watch the unpleasant feeling until it becomes neutral; at that time the mind can understand the nature of the pain.
