Hi Angelo. Thanks for another great vid. As someone who has suffered from years of over thinking, one thing I have found invaluable is recognising the effect of thought on body sensation. When going directly into the sensation instead of giving more attention to thought, this can be incredibly helpful in not only dissolving thought but also the associated anxieties. Body sensation then becomes like a small alarm going off which can then pull you from the thought stream. By the way, love your meditation app!👍

Thank you Angelo, I found it very inspiring. As I listened I felt that allowing thoughts to flow and be as they are, is also an act of love towards that form of manifestation of consciousness. Just letting everything be as it is, without holding on to anything.

❤️🙏🌈 I was just thinking today about... thinking 🤔... ...from evolutionary perspective.. When ape-men's forest shelter, dried up, it needed a new "edge" on the savanna, to survive... Thinking, was a translation of experience, to symbols...which humans could use to communicate and collaborate. This virtual world of symbols... becoming more complexed and abstract, allowed imagination to anticipate a different "time" and location, with imaginary danger, or reward. Then, this same imagination, needed to learn to generate motivation to expend energy now, for imaginary "future" (say.. agriculture...)... So repetitive thinking, became the strategy to amplify natural instincts about "now", to motivation for future. But this obsessive repetition ("the more, the stronger... preparation)... amplified natural instincts (like agression) to pathologies (like hate...or fear to anxiety..) The point is we habitually abuse repetitive thinking, to generate preparedness, without realizing, it's often just a blind harmful perversion of evolution. This understanding helps me a little. ... because i feel part of thinking appeal is that i believe, sub consciously, it is a good strategy to face problems.. 🙏❤️🌈

Hi Angelo and all. Is consciousness / being conscious of something only and basically always only reflection? Consciousness thus quasi the stage of everything what is apparently. What is then for example during deep sleep or anesthesia or physical death...? There is no world there, no consciousness, but nevertheless an impersonal BE / being... A background, which in its essence nevertheless interweaves and flows through everything and is illuminated by intuitive seeing / looking and looks into itself. Thanks for your videos and answers. And your book that arrived yesterday, I am already reading.

I like your comments. Your mental chatter looks much like my own. Consider that both chicken and egg are merely placeholders for what issues them both and also the observer.
