What does it feel like to be completely free of all thoughts?

 

To exist in a state where you just ARE instead of analyzing?

 

As I "think" about this (ha ha) I notice that my "mind" actually "thinks" this is a scary place!!

If I didn't have an opinion or a reaction who would I be??

Hmmm, maybe I am nothing to do with my opinions or reactions?

 

The train of thought keeps moving...

 

And I arrive at a place where I understand the fear is there because I have little to no references of what this would be like. I can entertain the idea - I can think that MAYBE I have had a momentary glimpse, but then I "think" if I actually did get to this place I wouldn't question whether I had been there or not. It certainly does sound fascinating!!

 

Perhaps that is why we sometimes feel so compelled to try something radically new and different - to give ourselves the gift of jumping off into the unknown - if just for a moment. Putting ourselves at risk - going to a place that only seems scary because we don't know it inside out -
