Last night, Ron taught a class at the UCSD Anti-Viral Research Center. One of my students is an MD who works there. He is also running a medical study on the effects of Kelee meditation on stress, anxiety and depression.
Last night this subject came up with a student.
What’s the object of doing Kelee meditation?
The object is to not have one!
In other words, when your mind is on a second point – the object you are viewing – you cannot be in primary point of mind – the place from where you understand everything.
When you learn to get out of the brain and into the mind – in the greater Kelee through your practice – you begin to realize that preconceived thought from the brain and intellect blocks perception. When you learn to still your mind in the greater Kelee, you understand that if you are to see clearly, you must see everything for the first time. When a still mind sees an object, what is reflected back, is the purity of what you see. This is when you see clearly and when you learn like never before.
This is just a note of encouragement for people to start doing Kelee meditation. I do not charge for the knowledge, it’s on www.thekelee.org.
Everyone have a good day, by allowing yourself to let go of the thoughts that do not allow you to have one.

Learning to see clearly.
Understanding depth of mind.
How deep can you go in understanding your life. How do you really access depth of mind?
First you must understand the difference between brain function and mind function. When you understand the brain, you understand it’s basically an organic computer. It runs the physical body and memory. However, what good is a large storehouse of intellectual information, if you do not feel good about it?
It is said, that most people use less than ten percent of their brain, why? It’s work to do things you don’t like to do. It’s easier to be lazy. However laziness is unfulfilling. How to change this? You must feel good about what you do with your brain from your mind. You must have your mind run your brain and not your brain a matter of just random firing neurons. The ability to feel good about learning is where you begin to understand your mind. The mind is more about emotion than you might think.
The brain thinks and the mind mentally feels through perception. This mental perception leads into an abstract sensation known as emotion. You must feel emotion because without this feeling in your physical body and mind, you feel lifeless. When you feel lifeless, you are lazy and have little energy to do anything. There is an old saying, “What you love to do, you do best.” When you are into what you are doing – you feel good about it – everything you do is worthwhile.
Then the next question, how do you learn to feel good about life? The easiest way is to get out of the brain and lesser Kelee and into the mind and greater kelee. The feeling in your kelee is the essence of your being and always feels good. If you want to understand the depth of your mind, you must have a way. That way is within you and found in the depths of your Kelee. The Kelee is a map to access the deepest understanding of life.
I personally have been studying the Kelee for 28 years. I have taught less than ten percent of what I know about it to anyone. And yet I feel content with how I feel and what I teach. This is the nature of being fulfilled through understanding the mind, it is never boring and always exciting! See for yourself. I can only talk about it to you, you can experience your own Kelee and the depth of understanding your mind for yourself. Learning looking upon the right way, is the best adventure you could possible be on. Ron
Healing worry.
This is interesting … most of people’s connection with humanity is through worry unknowingly disguised in one’s mind as concern and caring. If you pay attention to those you care about, you often also worry about them. Looping through another’s problem does not help them or you. When you can stop thinking about another’s pain, is when you open your mind’s perception to clearly see the problem and that of finding resolution.
When you can detach in mind from your worry, you can begin the process of understanding what caused the problem you are trying to resolve. It is ultimately harmony of mind that will free everyone from pain. It is harmony of mind that determines the process of accelerating healing rates within us all.
If you are to help someone in pain, your mind must be in a harmonious state to calm them and help them feel the healing process, not the pain.
Healing promotes healing, pain promotes pain.
Only harmony can heal disharmony.
Each time you get still of mind, you promote harmony.
This is why I do Kelee meditation and teach it.

Understanding the nature of Focus.
Genius happens when complete focus is achieved! Genius … when you understand it, is more about complete focus than fast firing neurons. One’s neurons may be fast but without proper focus, you can end up going nowhere fast. When you learn to combine fast firing neurons with a focused mind, amazing things happen! If you want to improve focus, you must understand the difference between brain function and mind function.
The brain sees from the outside in – in the three dimensions of height, width and depth. The brain bases its sense of accomplishment on speed and how much it gets done. It will try to do five things at once, often missing things. When things are missed, one must go back and redo, which takes time, time being money, inefficiency happens and production goes down. This causes frustration and impatience which involves the emotions and more complexity; not the way of efficiency.
The mind sees from the inside out – it is non-linear based and focuses naturally because it does not live in time as known by the brain. The mind will look at something and see one thing with five different details within it. The mind does not concern itself with time, because it does not know what it is, the mind only knows experience. When you learn to operate in mind, you will watch distraction end and comprehension improve.
If you want to learn to focus more completely, you must learn to stop thinking in brain and experience with mind. The easiest way to do this, is by getting your conscious awareness out of brain function and into mind function by doing Kelee meditation. When you can get your conscious awareness out of the lesser Kelee and into the greater Kelee, mind function opens into awareness; this awareness allows freedom of expression and a sense of happiness with what you are doing occurs. In this state of mind you are so completely involved in what you are doing that focus happens naturally. You lose yourself in what you are doing and time seems to disappear; you are in mind, completely focused.
This is the start of a new way of being that is more amazing than you can know right now, however with practice, persistence and patience, you will attain what is known as the absence of distraction and learn complete focus. Ron
Breathing and meditation.
People often ask about breathing and meditation. It is extremely important to have good breath and I think people do not breathe enough. However in meditation, breathing is a doing process of the brain, not a process of stilling the mind. If you are focusing on breathing, you cannot be still of mind at the same time. Breath is part of the brain and the autonomic nervous system and we can breathe consciously, or unconsciously when sleeping. If you do not get enough physical exercise, then breath exercises would be wise for overall health.
In Kelee Meditation when you learn to get out of your brain – in the lesser Kelee – and into the greater Kelee, meditation moves from a doing process into a being process. If you want to enter into the deeper realms of mind, you must let go of your breath and let the autonomic nervous system breathe for you, so you are not distracted from the purity of mind.
Remember, if your mind is on a second point such as breathing, you cannot be one pointed and still. Everything in life has two points, what we see and where we observe from. The brain sees from the outside in and the mind observes from the inside out. If you want to understand your life clearly, you must do it from a clear undistracted perception from mind.
Kelee meditation’s answer on breath and meditation is: have breathing be an exercise and stillness of mind a meditation.
The hardest and the most valuable thing you can do for yourself is to still your mind. Try Kelee meditation and you will know for yourself. Ron
Thinking outside the box
Thinking outside the box
There is a common phrase these days called, “thinking outside the box” which is often thought of as being cutting edge when it comes to the mind. I thought you might like to hear how I see it. I see, thinking as the box. You might ask why?
First you must understand that our conscious awareness operates in two ways, brain function associated with thinking and mind function associated with feeling i.e., perception.
When you’re thinking about something, you are using an analyzation process associated with the memory of what you already know, this is hindsight. In essence, you’re looking to understand from a place that does not have the knowledge to understand, or you would already understand. Thinking is an intellectual process and is linear based which means it works in three dimensions of height width and depth. That’s the box!
If you want to get out of the box, you must get into mind, which is non-linear and can work in foresight. The mind first appears as a feeling process which leads to a sense, this sense leads to perception and then finally to knowing what your looking at. The mind is the sixth sense and you find it with your feeling sense, initially as a gut-level feeling which leads to many deeper levels of mind and they must be opened to with practice. The Kelee Meditation Practice will do this.

Self-realization and enlightenment.
How does self-realization relate to enlightenment? Self-realization is the path to enlightenment. However, the path to enlightenment is a very long path. You might ask, what could I know about enlightenment? Well, that’s a long story story too. A few of my actor friends say my story would make quite a few amazing movies.
To understand enlightenment, you must understand what it means to attain it. Right now your understanding can only be intellectual, but it’s the place to start. Enlightenment is about completion, learning to attain every self-realization that will set you free from the bonds that keep you in pain and suffering. The easiest way I have found to understand this process is by means of finding your individual Spiritual Puzzle pieces that will complete you. Most people have not heard too much about SPPs, however in the circles I work with, it is the preferred means for discussing this deep subject.
How many SPPs are there to enlightenment? That depends on how your mind perceives them. It can be many hundreds into the thousands of SPPs to complete you. What one person might perceive as one PP another might perceive as five or more. So it can be a big variable.
Self-realization is the means to finding SPPs. The easiest way to find self-realization is to get out of your intellect and into your mind by dropping your conscious awareness into your greater Kelee. I will talk more about this process on the next blog. Ron
Understanding Self-Realization
This is a question from Dr Lee.
Ron, can you define what you mean by Self-realization?
First of all, you are asking one of the deepest questions that can be asked and one of the hardest to explain. First, there is physical awareness and there are Spiritual Puzzle Pieces. All SPPs are awareness, but not all awareness is SPPs.
Awareness is the ability to “see” but not necessarily the ability to understand; when you are able to perceive SPPs, you will understand true self-realization.
So how do you tell the difference between seeing with awareness and realizing SPPs?
You must understand the difference between seeing from a secondary point (from the outside in) and perceiving from your primary point of perception in mind (from the inside out). You actually cannot understand this difference intellectually. You must be able to know the difference between the brain’s intellectual physical nature and your mind’s spiritual nature. The only way I have found, from my personal experience, is to teach a student to direct their conscious awareness out of the lesser Kelee and allow oneself to be still in the greater Kelee. This is of course why I teach Kelee meditation.
Let me say once again, this is a deep deep subject! Kelee meditation was in its first form of being taught only “mind to mind” from a master to a student. I have brought it into language to help people bridge this gap from brain to mind.
When you can stop thinking about seeing, you can begin to perceive from mind, then you can begin to understand for yourself what self-realization really is. Ron
Dr Lee, I will answer your others questions another day.
Why exercise?
Why exercise? When you exercise, the brain becomes fully active in the process of doing. When the brain involves running the physical body, it can release the mind into being. When the mind is free, it can produce what is known loosely as the runners high. This high not only produces endorphins, but in the highest state … Self-Realization. Ron ![]()
Ron, can you clarify? If the brain is fully active in doing, does that mean that the brain cannot loop with compartments, thus freeing the mind to allow it to be free and in a state of “being”? Also, you state that the “high” produces endorphins. Does that mean that there is a subtle, separate and different feeling of the “high” itself which is supported or enhanced by the production of endorphins? In other words, does a free mind create a mental “high” vs. a physiological “high” caused by endorphins. Or are these two (a free mind and endorphins) essentially one and the same?
Hey Everyone, this is Dr Lee who runs the study on Kelee meditation at UCSD. This commentary is just a small amount of what we discuss frequently. Kelee meditation is much more technical than many realize. To answer your question simply. When the brain is focused, it can be so involved with what it is doing, that the mind detaches by default. When this happens the mind frees the endorphins to flow. The point of Kelee meditation is to free the mind not by default but by mental command. Ron
