..."We cannot stop our thinking just as much as we cannot stop the noise of freeway traffic, but until we can see this unconscious stream that flows within us, we will misidentify our-self with this continuous influence of noises.
If our ears and mouth are outside of our head, when we have thoughts, who is doing the speaking and where is the listening taking place? We may say IT is all created within the brain by us, but are you really sure of this?
Very little is known as to the true source of thoughts, as most of us take the inner chatter for granted, but for the One who looks within and takes a closer look, reveals something entirely different. Science has shown us that all outer noise flows in waves and enters us, but what we hear is not the true outer noise, but is only a interpretation and reconfiguration of these waves within our mind.
So how do we know what are our thoughts and what flows from the outer waves of self? How many times has a thought entered you that did not FEEL like you? How often have we reacted to these flow of thoughts which come from the unconscious part of self?
Does not our unconscious thoughts appear as our rational conscious thoughts, thus why we tend to get caught up blindly reacting to the influence of emotions? Where is the division between the two to be found?
There is conscious and unconscious thinking, and the difference between the two is just like being awake or sleeping, as we are either in one state or the other. For there is no in between, we are either Awake or we are unconsciously dreaming, and this does apply to our everyday thinking.
So when we no longer 'cling' to these passing thoughts which are always influencing our emotions, something else completely different arises, that which is called the great silence, which is just like living in a walking meditation. Then suddenly all the illusions lift, as the realm of 'What IS' appears before our very EYEs, and then just like a child, life becomes but a conscious living dream once again!" ~Alistar Valadez...
