Thoughts do not think

[AlphaAbundance]

@WokeBloke What are you then if not a thought? You experience/perceive your body no? So how can it be you? What is there left that could be you?

the maker of thoughts. Also I would say I am the body perceiving the body. Wherever the body goes is where I go. As far as I am concerned I am only the non conceptual body (that which the word body refers to) since its all I know (or hopefully everybody). Everything else is just conceptual identity.

@WokeBloke What is the maker of thoughts? Could the maker of thoughts be another thought? What about in a dream? Does your body follow you there? Aren't you still yourself in a dream?

Of course its a thought. But since I am still there when there is no thought I must not be a thought. (The silence between thoughts). At least that's what I think lol. I must be beyond thought though because I can see and thoughts don't have eyes. As for dreams that in my opinion is the creation of my human brain. No human body = no dreams since dreams occur to human bodies.

 

Lol the point is I have very little clue what is going on.

Don't confuse the domains of relative and absolute truth. Obviously Truth can't be verbally communicated satisfactorily, but truth can.

When you say experience, I understand that as Absolute Truth. Relative truth is thought.
