I applied to the camp because they said there was a way to discard the minds. As a person living with constant doubts, questions, and worries, I started out doubting that it was possible to get rid of human minds by emptying them out. But in the meantime, I was surprised with this new method that I had never heard of and I began to be convinced, “This is it!”

It seemed possible to throw away the minds (that are difficult to get rid of) if one were to look from a third person’s perspective. I was enchanted by the new method and pledged to let go of all the minds according to the guidance at the center. By nature, I worried and was very suspicious. Perhaps it is because of my constant negative thoughts, but I couldn’t concentrate well and I had all kinds of distracting thoughts. But every time I would consult with the meditation helpers and meditate according to their advice, I would encounter surprising changes.

After discarding my minds, I came to understand that all my suffering was due to myself and the constant blame I put on others. From then onwards, I began to feel the countless, useless thoughts disappear. I realized that those were all false and meaningless. And when I lay all those things down and threw them away, I realized I had been filled with a lot of noisy, false minds. I also felt a sense of serenity that I had never felt before in my life. At the same time, everything around me started to look different.

I became grateful for everything. Everyone seemed beautiful and my mind was filled with positive energy. I realized, ‘Ah, this is the universe mind. This is what my mind was originally like.’ It was a magnificence that’s very difficult to put into words. It felt so great that it was difficult for me to calm down. Before, I was so depressed to the point of contemplating suicide. I can’t even imagine that I would’ve turned my back on the world. But now I believe that this method of meditation is more effective and scientific than any medicine or method of treatment in the world. It is the best method which is worth $1800, not $180.
