Rouse Strength in Your Mind

When you experience your mind in a fog, there is obscuration. Because
there is obscuration, rouse strength in your mind. Rouse the factor of
luminosity in your mind. Rouse the factor of brilliance in your mind.
Rouse the quality of keenness, or sharpness, in your mind. Straighten
your body upwards. Straighten your posture. Send strength throughout
your body. For instance, stretch and extend your fingers. In the same way,
send strength throughout all the parts of your body-not just one portion
of your body but all its parts. With your eyes look up into space. Then
relax into the natural state.
