ABOUT THE TECHNIQUE
Unclutching is a self-purifying technique. For any technique to be self-purifying and liberating, the moment you become subtle, the technique should also become subtle by itself. Unclutching is one such technique. The technique that does not become subtle by itself stays in the gross level. If it is not able to kill itself, if the technique is not able to commit suicide, it will kill you! The beauty with the technique of unclutching is that it will become subtler and subtler by itself as you become subtler. Finally, it will dissolve.
Let us see how unclutching is related to what happens every moment in your body – breathing! As you saw, between the incoming breath and the outgoing breath is a neutral zone. Your identity exists in the incoming and outgoing breath spaces. But in the gap of the neutral zone your identity does not exist.
You think that the breathing time is more than the neutral zone, because you have more thoughts when breathing. Because you give more emphasis to your identity, you think that the time of the incoming breath and outgoing breath is more than the time of neutral space. In reality it is not. It is just a psychological game.
The neutral zone is the natural space of unclutching. When there is no identity, naturally there can be no thoughts. If you can keep your awareness in the neutral zone, unclutching becomes effortless.
