Mindplayers play their mind like a beautiful instrument.

They detain their mind or outside triggers from playing them, from pushing them around with thoughts and emotions. Mindplayers are curious, trust their intuition and give themselves permission for even irritating experiences.

Most people do not dare to play and will be played forever. And yet it is super simple to play on a daily basis. Just use the 1 minute daily hacks on Youtube Shorts or TikTok (identical) and practice them several times that day at your convenience. Or just choose from over 500 daily hacks. And if you prefer a more systematic practice, use the 50 Plays for Mindplayers for more development and progress related playing and inspirations.

50 Plays for Mindplayers rev 4

Mindplayers play everywhere and always.
They play on a walk, hike, when cycling, riding, in the car, train or bus, at rest, when waiting or at spare times. They play while doing home-work, work-out, hand-craft, cooking, kid-care and other repetitive activities. They play at school, in meetings, in the office, when their attention is not fully required. Advanced players even play appropriate plays while communicating, reading, texting and with any other activity.

Mindplayers liberate all aspects of themselves
The Self is not a homogeneous entity, but a "family" of parts, aspects or sub-selves. Parts have been created to flexibly fill roles, quickly adopt to various challenges, internalize reference persons or deal with trauma and extreme experiences. Parts can be known, regularly present and nicely integrated to a homogeneous-looking Self.
Some parts are specialists only appearing on their specific trigger or challenge. Other parts are unknown, repressed, locked up in the "Shadow", "Exile" or "Basement" and acting out covertly. Parts can be on the actual level of personal development but some of them are still younger, even on toddler or baby level.
Liberating the "Seeking Self", the "Spiritual Self" or the "Meditator Self" does not automatically include the others. They can and will actively interrupt or end realizations, question and reinterpret the experience or even prevent recognizing any realization in the first place.
But all parts have a positive intention, valuable insights and love to be liberated even if their observable behaviour seems to indicate the opposite. They always intend to do good but depending on their developmental level sometimes act immature and painful. But sometimes the other more "smart" and "mature" parts just don't get it!

Mindplayers play, when they get stuck or see no progress
Seekers and meditators can get stuck at various obstacles on their path. Especially without a teacher, it can be difficult to get unstuck, get a fresh perspective on the meditative or mindfulness practice and feel enthusiastic and encouraged to proceed again. 50 Plays can be a great help to get unstuck from the following five obstacles:





1. Stuck at the Start
Starting with meditation or mindfulness can get people stuck. They try it few times, judge the outcome, especially the increase of bliss, happiness and personal improvements and drop it.
Any practice needs repetition, time, and endurance. The trick is making it a personal habit. Decide about your regular time, place, and rituals. Create a new MINDPLAYER identity, for yourself, which enjoys to practice and is very curious about the mind. Identify, what triggers you away from your new habit. The Explore Plays 1-4 focus on this.
The other Explore Plays focus on strengthening your attention control and concentration power. Play this regularly, especially as a beginner.







2. Stuck in Self Improvement
Your ability to control your attention and your concentration power has significantly improved. But you have a sense, that there is more, that this is just a start and you want to make a step forward into this uncharted territory.
50 Plays are based on the widely but not always accepted assumption, that every person has anything needed to realize anytime, what meditation is all about. They do not need to develop or get anything by practicing, everything is always there. People even realize this regularly but are usually not aware of realizing it.
The Glimpse Plays offer a variety of ways to realize first glimpses of what this is all about. The first glimpses are usually short and irritating. They can feel like very strange, boringly ordinary, strikingly alien, or totally uninteresting. But with repeatedly refocusing awareness on these glimpses, the spaciousness and relaxing character becomes more apparent.
As personalities are different, everybody will find different Glimpse Plays appealing. Try them out and repeat those, which work for you and feel good. Later try the other ones again. Kind of looking at the same realization from different angles helps clarifying and stabilizing it. Glimpses come and go as they like, just enjoy and investigate them, until they disappear again.





3. Stuck in the Subtle World
Many people meditate to engage with the Subtle World.
The Subtle World is a huge range of phenomena, which some people consider real and others imaginary. 50 Plays assume, that all subtle phenomena are objects of the mind (like all real phenomena too).
Subtle phenomena allow us to project desires, hopes, fears or anger away from ourself or people around us to persons or objects in the Subtle World. Examples of Subtle World objects are Angles, Dragons, Ghosts, Buddhas, Fairies, Demons, Gods, Devils, Subtle Energies, Non-Natural Forces, Chacras, Kundalini and many others.
Subtle World phenomena can have a good impact, there is nothing wrong working with them and even 50 Plays use some subtle phenomena. Engaging with this world can be rewarding and beautiful but also threatening and limiting.
To step forward look at all these phenomena as objects in your mind, as phenomena your mind created with best intentions. Play the Glimpse Plays and include all subtle phenomena you believe in as objects in your mind. When playing part liberation, the Identify Play 6 is especially aiming at parts of yourself, which create and deal with subtle phenomena. Find and liberate all of them, like you liberate all parts, which deal with phenomena of the so-called Real World.





4. Stuck with spontaneous Glimpses
You regularly experience spontaneous glimpses, but they do not have significant impact on your life, thinking or your perceiving the world and yourself. You wish them to be clearer and more persisting, but your practice alone seems not to work so far.
50 Plays assumes, that most of the significant parts of your Self must be liberated to proceed from spontaneous glimpses to more persisting realizations (as described under: Mindplayers liberate all aspects of themselves).
The effects are twofold: Firstly, all liberated parts support and enjoy realizations and the time, while it stays. So, they have no tendency to interfere, stop, redirect or reinterpret it. Secondly, they all add a dimension or aspect to the realization, so the realizations become richer, wider, and more complete.





5. Stuck in the Void
An intense, lasting or regularly recurring realization of emptiness, of absence of subject and object can be experienced as pure bliss. In cases it can also be experienced as a deep, dark void of nothingness. In the first case, you can get stuck there, because it is so blissful. In case it is threatening, you stop meditating to not fall into it again.
The next step requires recognizing all dimensions not only the emptiness, to embrace the complete paradox of each phenomenon = all phenomena = no phenomenon. The Emptiness must be integrated with the Oneness with all Phenomena.
This can require liberating some deeply hidden parts being created to deal with old, very traumatic experiences or with negative aspects of you, which you consider not acceptable and impossible to be part of yourself.
The Unite Plays are helping to fully be this paradox, to integrate all dimensions and aspects and to see it becoming richer, wider, and more complete.
