Lovely! Sometimes, thoughts feel like thereβre different people with different desires inside of me. One of them is an angry child whom throws tantrum so Iβm trying to calm and be gentle with her. Thank you for this.
I think that it is not thinkig itself that is detrimental to awakening, but the unconscious thinking, the addiction to thinking or the uncontroled tinking
What a beautiful explanation. β€ I was surprised about still having thoughts, as well. But the thoughts are different. They lost their weight and power. Just like the Wizard of Oz, the mind is only a little guy behind the curtain pretending to be big and powerful. π Also the thoughts align with your true nature. They become positive, supporting and benign. Though there still can be invitations from the dualistic realm in form of lower frequencies (negative thoughts, emotions) that used to trigger you. In the beginning these invitations can be utterly strong. Furthermore, after self-realization it is much easier to have moments of complete emptiness and silence. And you recognize that you are not the thoughts, the feelings, the perceptions, but that which is aware of it.
Yes. Also, after awakening Pandora's box is opened as the tendency to repress is no longer there, as the egoic self is the repressor. Now old stored up crap is allowed to arise to be "processed", that is, to be met non-judgmentally for the first time so it can be free to dissipate. So, consequently, after awakening, you may even feel emotions more intensely both pleasant and unpleasant. For me, this process has continued for years. It feels like a cleansing of the past, though. And now there are fewer and fewer thoughts generally. And also, more often than not, new disturbances are dealt with more immediately and not repressed or stored.
Great explanation, thank you! You cannot stop a waterfall (of thoughts) before you've learnt to stop raining on the river that feeds it. Directly working with thoughts and emotions (and examining one's behaviour in day-to-day life) is a way to send up fewer rain clouds (sources for thoughts).
Thanksβ€
