what keeps happenning
« on: August 12, 2016, 04:17:25 pm »
hi jed
what keeps happening is certain thoughts happen and are followed by certain actions surely as night follows day. There then follows a backwash of fears depressions swampy general bodymind identification type sufferings, wherein aformentioned certain thoughts prolificate and on and around.
It has seemed very pointless, no....farcical to try and control though with more thought, leading only to deeper pits but stuff that was taken for granted as nothing to write home about is now swinging me around in that circular rut that i just described.
So likely i am missing some basic fundamental thing here and so thats why im asking  :-\

look, im not very good at describing what i mean, but i am guessing you know what i was asking, for some advice about thoughts that create actions that create more of the same. Can the flo be nipped off or must it just run and run
thanks

Hi Ooji:

Just watch your thoughts, sans judgment and avec massive curiosity. Wondering what will come next, and what next. Never pay attention to the content, only focus on what thought ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? will arise next.

Please re-read those instructions and follow them exactly for at least ten or fifteen minutes each day. Then have a glass of red wine and some Camembert on a baguette and enjoy the rest of your life. Never, ever forget.. it's all entertainment.

Love ya. Jed.

yes but sometimes the entertainment is painful, like today with my fella and youngest son, we're all getting attacked by a nest of wasps stinging us everywhere even around our eyes and we are running and running and theyre inside our clothes but once we are free of them i am falling on the floor laughing my head off and my kid is screaming....just entertainment  :D
And so not judge the thought or the knock on actions they lead to, just keep on watching the show? The massive curiosity is something that makes all the difference and cannot be called up like that (fingers snap) but watching and wondering i can do xxxxxxxxxxxxx many thanks

do you still remember what it's like to be a little caterpiller and every time you see the boundry-lessness it is overwhelming so you quickly create a boundry?

Hi O:

Yes, a long, long time ago when my search for truth was less than sincere. When it became life and death there was not fear, only do.

Love ya, Jed.

yes, sounds about right.  Less than sincere.            Working with whats available, which seems to be a search that is for the most part less than sincere. Not the rabid straight line it seemed at first but something that goes
                                                                                                    round
                                                                                            and                  and
                                                                                                     round                                                                                                                                     Seems that i observe the bs nature of thought only to forget it, re-trust them, and observe it fresh all over again.  But sincerity and on and onwards into boundry-lessness....ah, this is not something i get to pick and choose about... In fact theres nothing i get to pick and choose about, but things are most interesting when i watch the thoughts do their contrary dance and things start to get seamless, boundryless, even for a scaredy cat like me.....so i'll pretend to pick and choose that

Hmm, yes yes I know a plan made of thoughts who lie and lie and lie.... A plan that's not worth the paper its printed on....

So are you going to follow it... pretend to pick and choose?

What else could you do?
