引言
我們所有人都有頭腦喋喋不休。在某種程度上，我們所有人都會受到阻礙實現關係的想法的影響。我們所有人有時都會訴諸行為模式，這些模式大多是在童年時期習得的，這些模式破壞了與他人的輕鬆接觸。我們想要找到意義、和平與穩定，但只要我們在思想和觀念的過度漩渦中尋找它們，我們只會找到真正滿足的不可靠的替代品。這是人類的狀況;正如佛陀所說，生命是由痛苦定義的。
1 幾千年來，
許多人試圖找到治愈我們這種疾病的方法。有些方法對某些人有效，有些時候。心靈清除為我們生活的時代提供了一個全新的視角和方法。這是一種諮詢式的做法，旨在減少精神、情感、人際關係和精神困擾造成的痛苦。它基於這樣的觀察，即大多數內心衝突和不快樂狀態都是由於未表達的溝通而產生的。
2
在這裡所介紹的模型中，心靈清潔的心是那些未說的東西的總和。它是人類狀況的外層;它的想法或意義方面。如果我們希望從根本上改善我們的健康和幸福，那麼處理我們的思想是至關重要的。
心靈清除建立在正念所做的重要工作之上，並將其推向下一步。它彙集了正念的技巧，教授一種新的存在方式，並認識到進一步的進步需要更協調一致的説明來溶解心靈的東西。它把物質上的幫助和進步實際上是什麼，並把它放在一個一對一的方法中，在一個強大的動態中正念。它通過給它一個堅實的理論模型來完成正念專案，它可以按照自己的條件進步，以及確定當下幫助的關鍵要素的技術。
為了頭腦清理的目的而定義「頭腦」這個詞在開始時可能會令人困惑。在通常的用法中，我們用頭腦來表示許多不同的事情。我們傾向於認為，在某些關鍵方面，我們是我們的思想。因此，我們可能會對任何建議感到不舒服，即沒有頭腦我們會更好。即使我們準備支援這種可能性，也許是通過在正念冥想中獲得的洞察力，我們幾乎可以肯定地認為心靈與我們思考和在世界上運作的能力有關。因此，正如本書所建議的那樣，擁有更少甚至沒有頭腦的可取性聽起來像是在鼓勵人們成為殭屍。
但這裏的情況不是這樣理解的。頭腦清除基於一個非常特殊的定義，即心靈從根本上是一個問題。這個問題不像腿斷了，一旦癒合就會好起來。心的存在本身就是一個錯誤，心本身本身就是麻煩的。當然，它可以做得更整潔、更高效，但它不能被修復。
如果我們希望沿著正念和其他自我檢查方法開始的道路取得進展，那麼我們的首要任務就是處理心靈。它是成為更多自我的守門人。在很小的程度上，這意味著改善思維的組織，但最終這意味著完全超越我們對它的需求。
頭腦清除是做到這一點的一個非常好的工具。它通過幫助我們提高與他人溝通的能力，從字面上清除了頭腦。隨著我們更好地溝通事情對我們而言，這反過來又減少了我們在與他人之間提出的無益想法的實際數量和複雜性，這些想法阻止我們輕鬆和良好地聯繫。它基於這樣的洞察力，即我們生活中最基本的動力和目標是相互聯繫;因此，我們在這方面做得越好，我們就越有成就感，我們就越不需要替代品。
我們越善於建立關係，我們就越清楚我們到底是誰，我們想要什麼。我們越善於展示我們是誰以及我們想要什麼，我們對生活就越清晰，我們就越有可能與自己和諧相處;這包括我們的關係，這將更深刻、更真實。
查理斯·伯納（Charles Berner，1927-2007）是“心靈清除”的創始人，他一直對進步感興趣，並畢生
追求這種理解。當他從事成為頭腦清理的專案時，他對我們所面對的事物有了越來越清晰的認識;情況比我們大多數人想像的要好，也比我們大多數人想像的要壞。更糟糕的是，我們的思想比我們想像的更混亂;它更好，因為我們可以從根源上做點什麼。在發展自己的工作時，伯納整理了一張地圖，解釋了大腦是如何運作的，以及為什麼它是一個問題。本書探討了這張地圖和伯納得出的結論，即真正的幫助和進步是什麼樣子的，以及如何以實際的方式實現它們。
本書
的目標讀者 心靈清除 為身心健康領域的從業者提供了一個全新的視角。此外，對於那些對自助感興趣的人，心靈清除提供了對我們思想本質以及如何解決其問題的洞察力。
內容
說明 本書的第一部分“背景”包括兩章。第1章（“尋求解決人類苦難的方法”）追溯了伯納從新時代尋求者到印度傳統教師的旅程。它通過Mind Clear與Swami Kripalu一起投降冥想來映射他的工作。它介紹了勞倫斯·諾伊斯（Lawrence Noyes）作為伯納的學生，後來又以當前和全面的形式介紹了心靈清除的建築師。第2章（「伯納的變革公式」）概述了伯納確定的幫助的關鍵。它著眼於他對心靈清除模型的發展以及他為幫助人們通過溝通工作溶解心靈而制定的公式。
第二部分“心靈”也包含兩章。第3章（“心智的問題”）討論了心智如何看起來像一個壓倒性的團塊，而實際上它有一個明確的開始，也可以有一個明確的結束。本章著眼於心是如何形成的以及為什麼。第4章（“心靈的結構和內容”）建立在前一章的基礎上：本節將心從不太固定的外層映射到越來越固定
的層到核心。它討論我們如何在實際中處理這些層。
第三部分，「處理心靈：頭腦清理」，包含七章。第5章（“為什麼我們必須對心靈做點什麼”）討論了控制心靈，以及減少它的影響如何不僅為我們自己帶來更大的幸福和滿足，而且是一種道德上的當務之急。第6章（“清除溝通週期”）涉及我們如何消解心靈的實際問題。它說明了頭腦清除的原則，以及如何通過清除溝通週期直接溝通的能力的提高來處理頭腦。第7章（“與態度一起工作”）討論了構成心靈的固定態度是如何扭曲的溝通。本書的這一部分討論了與人們合作的思維清除公式，通過關注人們以扭曲的方式真正說的話並幫助他們更直接地溝通，直接處理固定的態度。第8章（“內疚與業力”）探討了內疚的常見絆腳石，以及如何幫助人們從內疚中解脫出來並取得進步。第9章（“頭腦清醒的注意事項”）涵蓋了在會議中經常做和永遠不做的事情。第10章（“頭腦清理專案”）簡要概述了頭腦清理的結果和培訓。它簡要介紹了伯納為處理身體情緒和更深層次的精神進步而開發的其他一些方法。它還著眼於我們如何使用思維清除原則進行自己動手的專案。第11章（“心靈清除和正念”）討論了心靈清除如何成為正念革命的下一步，自新千年開始以來，這場革命已經席捲了健康，福祉和個人發展的世界。頭腦清理是正念掌握;將實踐帶入一對一關係的動態中，它將治療關係中發生的幫助與當下的實踐相結合的洞察力結合起來。第11章將正念訓練視為心理健康和幸福中的重要發展，以及心靈清除如何通過融合的理論模型和具體技術將其更有效地轉化為一對一的説明。
INTRODUCTION
All of us have mind chatter. All of us suffer, to some extent, from ideas that get in the way of fulfilled relating. All of us resort at times to behaviour patterns, mostly learned in childhood, that disrupt easy contact with others. We want to find meaning and peace and stability, but as long as we search for them in the over-stuffed maelstrom of our thoughts and ideas, we will find only unreliable substitutes for real satisfaction. This is the human condition; life, as the Buddha said, is defined by suffering.1
Many people, over millennia, have tried to find ways to cure us of this condition. Some methods work for some people, some of the time. Mind Clearing offers a fresh perspective and approach for the times in which we live. A counselling-style practice, it aims to reduce the suffering caused by mental, emotional, relationship and spiritual distress. It is based on the observation that most inner conflicts and states of unhappiness come about as a result of unexpressed communications.2
In the model presented here, the mind of Mind Clearing is the sum total of those things unsaid. It is the outer layer of the human condition; the ideas or meaning aspect of it. Dealing with our minds is vital if we wish to improve our health and happiness at a fundamental level.
Mind Clearing builds on the vital work being done with mindfulness and takes it to the next step. It brings together the techniques of mindfulness that teach a new way of being with the insight that further progress requires more concerted help to dissolve the stuff of mind. It takes apart what material help and progress actually are and puts this into a one-to-one approach with mindfulness in a powerful dynamic. It completes the mindfulness project by giving it both a solid theoretical model with which it can progress on its own terms as well as techniques that pinpoint the key elements of help in the moment.
Defining the word ‘mind’ for the purposes of Mind Clearing might be confusing at the start. In common usage, we use mind to mean lots of different things. We tend to think that we are, in some crucial way, our minds. Consequently we might be uncomfortable at any suggestion that we would be better off without a mind. Even if we are prepared to countenance that possibility, perhaps through insights gained in mindfulness meditation, we almost certainly view the mind as linked to our capacity to think and operate in the world. So the desirability, as suggested in this book, of having less or even no mind may sound like encouraging people to be zombies.
But that is not how the situation is understood here. Mind Clearing rests on a very particular definition of the mind as fundamentally a problem. This problem is not like having a broken leg that will be fine once healed. The very existence of mind is a mistake and the mind itself inherently troublesome. Certainly it can be made somewhat neater and more efficient, but it cannot be fixed.
If we wish to make progress along the path that mindfulness and other methods of self-examination start us on, then our first task is to deal with the mind. It is the gatekeeper to becoming more ourselves. To a small extent that means improving the organisation of the mind, but finally it means going beyond our need for it altogether.
Mind Clearing is a very good tool for doing this. It literally clears the mind away through helping us raise our ability at communicating with others. As we get better at communicating how things are for us, this in turn reduces the actual quantity and complexity of unhelpful ideas we have put between us and others that prevent us from relating easily and well. It is based on the insight that our most basic drive and purpose in life is to connect with each other; so the better we are at this, the more fulfilled we become and the less we need substitutes.
The better we are at relating, the clearer we also become in ourselves about who we actually are and what we want. The better we become at presenting who we are and what we want, so the clearer about life we become and the more likely we are to live in harmony with who we are; this includes our relationships, which will be deeper and more real.
Charles Berner (1927–2007), the founder of Mind Clearing, was always interested in what progress looked like and spent his life in
pursuit of that understanding. As he worked on the project that became Mind Clearing, he gained an increasingly clear appreciation of what we are up against; the situation is both better and worse than most of us suppose. It is worse because we are in more of a mess with our minds than we suppose; it is better because we can do something about it, at its very root. As he developed his work, Berner put together a map that explains how the mind operates and why it is a problem. This book explores that map and the conclusions Berner drew about what real help and progress look like and how to achieve them in practical ways.
Intended audience for this book
Mind Clearing offers a fresh perspective for practitioners in the field of mental and physical health. In addition, for those interested in self- help, Mind Clearing offers insight into the nature of our minds and in how to address its problems.
Description of the content
Part I of this book, ‘Background’, comprises two chapters. Chapter 1 (‘The Search for a Resolution to Human Suffering’) traces Berner’s journey from New Age seeker to a teacher in the Indian traditions. It maps out his work through Mind Clearing to Surrender Meditation with Swami Kripalu. It introduces Lawrence Noyes as Berner’s student, and latterly the architect of Mind Clearing in its current and comprehensive form. Chapter 2 (‘Berner’s Formula for Change’) outlines the keys to help that Berner identified. It looks at his development of the Mind Clearing model and the formula he crafted for helping people dissolve the mind through communication work.
Part II, ‘The Mind’, also contains two chapters. Chapter 3 (‘The Problem That Is the Mind’) discusses how the mind can seem like an overwhelming mass, whereas in fact it has a clear beginning and can have a clear end. This chapter looks at how the mind comes into being and why. Chapter 4 (‘The Structure and Content of the Mind’) builds on the previous chapter: this section maps the mind from its less fixed
outer layers through ever more fixed layers to the core. It discusses how we can deal with these layers in practical terms.
Part III, ‘Dealing with the Mind: Mind Clearing’, contains seven chapters. Chapter 5 (‘Why We Must Do Something About the Mind’) discusses taking control of the mind and how reducing its influence is not only a recipe for greater happiness and fulfilment for ourselves, it is a moral imperative. Chapter 6 (‘The Clearing Communication Cycle’) deals with the practical matter of how we can dissolve the mind. It gives an account of the principles of Mind Clearing and how the mind is dealt with through a gain in the ability to communicate directly through clearing communication cycles. Chapter 7 (‘Working with Attitudes’) discusses how the fixed attitudes that make up the mind are distorted communications. This part of the book discusses the Mind Clearing formula for working with people in dealing directly with fixed attitudes through focusing on what people are really saying in distorted ways and helping them communicate more directly. Chapter 8 (‘Guilt and Karma’) examines the common stumbling block of guilt along with how to help people release themselves from it and progress. Chapter 9 (‘Dos and Don’ts of Mind Clearing’) covers a few things to always do and never do in sessions. Chapter 10 (‘The Mind Clearing Project’) gives a brief overview of Mind Clearing results and training. It briefly introduces some of the other methods Berner developed for dealing with the body emotions and for deeper spiritual progress. It also looks at how we can work on do-it-yourself projects using Mind Clearing principles. Chapter 11 (‘Mind Clearing and Mindfulness’) discusses how Mind Clearing is the next step in the mindfulness revolution that has taken the world of health, well- being and personal development by storm since the start of the new millennium. Mind Clearing is mindfulness mastery; taking the practice into the dynamic of one-to-one relating, it marries the insight that help happens within the therapeutic relationship with the practice of being in the moment. Chapter 11 looks at mindfulness training as an important development within psychological health and well-being and how Mind Clearing brings it more usefully into one-to-one help with a confluent theoretical model and concrete techniques.
