And even if there were that’s no reason to hang lip.

Thank you SO much for posting this! This made my morning!
I’m usually more surprised by every tv-show and movie depicting someone brushing their teeth and then rinsing their mouth with water after!? What!?

Actually they’re not far off. When you notice you’re on a thought train and suddenly “wake up” like “oh shit where was I”, THAT’S the key. Keep doing that, keep “waking up” and notice what it feels like and focus back on what you were doing. The more you do this, the less your mind will control you.

Self is made of thought, there is no control center anywhere that is “self”. Thoughts appear by themselves spontaneously, you can’t stop them, you can’t make them, you can’t foretell what they will be. And thought has been proven time and time again to appear after the fact that a decision is made, a movement is started. There’s science behind this but you can also experiment with this by yourself.
It is not for the faint of heart and it may lead to a rabbit hole of other insights that might feel scary. The good thing about that is there have been many walking that path, so there is guidance to be had and that scary feeling is also “just thoughts”.
Very well put! I love that you explained it from the scientific perspective.
“Free Will” by Sam Harris is a good one. Also “Why Buddhism is true” by Robert Wright. If these tickled your fancy there are tons more. It’s a surprisingly flourishing area of science. Also, remember, nothing of this is anything you have to believe in, it can all be tested by yourself. All very free of “woo woo”. If that is something you would like to explore then I recommend Sam Harris app “Waking Up”. Enjoy!

I’ve held out a while but this is just getting ridiculous. I’m taking the leap.
As I use my home machine mainly for gaming, which version is best for me?
