Obviously it still has its down sides and draw backs. But smoking weed can make you present compared to the technology reliant mind.

      I always say my life is better but I'm not happier. As I got older and saw the world for what it was I grew a desire to grow in order to fix it, I've been striving for goals involving my species yet, ignoring my home. However, every so often I take a step back and go back to my roots. I've always been a martial artist, and if you've really been taught by somebody whom is still in touch with the roots, balance is key, understanding, meditation; so, I'll go outside and sit, meditate, remove myself from the very fundamentals of humanity and simply exist. It is in this space I feel the happiest, where I feel the most connected with both what's around me and who's around me. We must relax and find out balance.

      Same, but I managed to take control and fully snap out off my head. This started happening only a few months ago, one day I went into my head and its like I couldn't snap out, it's like it felt good to be in my head with out snapping out. Its like I was satisfied that I was imagination without snapping out or getting interrupted, a few months went pass, no matter where I go, where I was or who I was with, it was like I was just alway imagination. I felt stuck in my head so one day I tried my BEST to stop going in my head but it was hard! Its like trying to quit smoking but I finally managed to snap out & it felt goooood, till this day! I pray for you and everyone else that's going through this. ❤️

      There is no problem in that reality is not superior to thoughts. Nothing is superior. You can enjoy the world and not think or you can try to answer your questions. Just because you stop asking questions doesn't mean that they are answered. You can feel and enjoy sensations or you can think or you can do both. Enjoying sensations is not superior. Its just a choice . Animals enjoy sensations . This doesn't make animals superior than humans. This also does not make humans superior than animals. Nothing is superior than other. Its all a choice.

      Everyone is free to choose their own path. That's ultimately what ZEN is. Acceptance. He just chose to live in a certain manner but the key is that your life's path is your own to fulfill without judgement from the Universe. There is no pressure to live out a certain existence according to what someone else might say or think.

      why's it weird? thinking it's weird to fall in love with a voice more rather over a person is the very existance of doubt within ourselves towards people who don't. say, you heard Morgan Freeman's voice for the first time, anyone would fall in absolute love, doubt yourself or not, with his voice until you look at it. therefore, concluding that the discovery of appearances is the very reason that we choose to neglect our thoughts when it comes to the matters of enjoyment.

And I end up acting like them so they like me more. And every person I meet drags me farther from my old self. Every girlfriend I get I’m scared to lose because I’m afraid I’m acting too much like someone else or too clingy or not enough. And I lost myself to the point where killing myself would be the only answer to finding myself.

      Stop trying to go back, and move forward. We are not meant to be the same person forever, even if it seems comfortable, it would be hell. Please do not even contemplate the idea of suicide as a thought is only one step removed from an action. I must say I too "lost" myself, but sometimes you have to lose something to find a better alternative. I hope you find peace, but looking hard is a sure way to miss it. If you listen to the knowledge in this video you'd realize you never lost yourself because you're still here, and that is a gift.

    Transcription:
    A person who thinks all the time has nothing to think about except thoughts. So, he loses touch with reality and lives in a world of illusions. By thoughts I mean specifically “chatter in the skull” ... perpetual and compulsive repetition of words... of reckoning and calculating.
    I’m not saying thinking is bad. Like everything else, it’s useful in moderation. A good servant, but a bad master - and all so called civilized peoples have increasingly become crazy and self-destructive. Because, through excessive thinking, they have lost touch with reality. That’s to say, we confuse signs, words, numbers, symbols and ideas with the real world.
    Most of us would have rather money than tangible wealth... and a great occasion is somehow spoiled for us unless photographed... and to read about it the next day in the newspaper is oddly more fun for us than the original event. This is a disaster. For as a result of confusing the real world of nature, with mere signs, such as bank balances and contracts. We are destroying nature. We are so tied up in our minds that we’ve lost our senses.
    Time to wake up. What is reality? Obviously, no one can say. Because it isn’t words. It isn’t material. That’s just an idea. It isn’t spiritual. That’s also an idea. A symbol. Reality is, this!

    He is right! One time I stopped thinking I got a big shock and stopped talking in my head, and so i stayed like that for the whole day, and I haven’t felt so unbothered like I did that day. I don’t know how to make it happen again though.

    Each of us lives dependent and bound by our individual knowledge and our awareness. All that is what we call reality however both knowledge and awareness are equivocal. One's reality might be another's illusion . We all live inside our own fantasies

    As an over thinker and a maladaptive daydreamer, it constantly keeps me detached from the real word but at the same time It’s been keeps me from having negative thoughts, it’s a escape from reality for me.

    I have something in my mind that is so deep there is no words to describe it, look at something and just wonder what makes it exist and just look at the texture of this world its like is this really it why does it look like this, is there another world that is so different from us that they dont have life and they have something else like a new color a new texture like there is a different creator and in there words isn't a thing communicating isn't a thing movement isn't a thing life isn't anything and nothing isn't something, there it's like a different mode like a different type of existence a different reality, and just think about it pain is just a feeling why do we avoid it?

    Overthinking is thinking about something so much you get lost in your thoughts without knowing it. Quite frankly it’s pretty scary when u think about it. Thinking about something so much you lose yourself, with in yourself, most of the time thinking about yourself

    We are not the same. I felt that. I understood that. What if I wanted to shed a tear for Allen watts. Because we cannot be the same even as we cry. I know people will cry when I pass away. Just ask them to speak to my spirit and I'll shine so brightly. Sure but us being as one we lose something. My mother enjoyed this guy's voice. As for now my spirit is in happy. And needs healing.

    Whether the product of thinking is positive or negative is dependent upon the focus of one's thinking, not whether one is thinking. What is overthinking? Overthinking is a different way of articulating that one's thoughts have been focused on an object or idea which has ceased to produce something which will aid the person, ministering to their souls. You are correct, thinking is a tool, but overthinking is an option.

    Tradução para Português(Brasil)
    Uma pessoa que pensa o tempo todo, não tem nada para pensar além de pensamentos, então ele perde o toque pela realidade, e vivem em um mundo de ilusões, quando eu digo pensamento, me refiro especificamente a conversas na mente, perpétua e repetitivas repetições de palavras de ajustes de contas e de cálculos.
    Eu não estou dizendo que pensar é ruim, como qualquer outra coisa, é útil com moderação, uma boa servente mas um mestre ruim. Todas aquelas pessoas chamadas de civilizados tem continuamente se tornando loucas e autodestrutivas, pois através de tanto pensar tem perdido o toque pela realidade.
    Dito isso, nós confundimos sinais, símbolos, palavras, números e ideias com o mundo real. Muitos de nós preferem ter dinheiro a bens tangíveis, e grandes ocasiões são de alguma forma estragadas para nos, amenos que sejam fotografadas. E ler sobre no próximo dia no jornal, isso é estranhamente, mais divertido para nós que o evento original.
    Isso é um desastre, como um resultado por confundir o mundo real natural com meros sinais, como balanços do mercado e contratos, nos estamos destruindo a natureza. Nós estamos tão ligados em nossas mentes que perdemos os nossos sentidos.
    É TEMPO PARA ACORDAR.
    QUE É REALIDADE?
    Obviamente ninguém pode dizer por que não é uma palavra, não é material, é apenas uma ideia, não é espiritual, isso também é uma ideia, um símbolo.
    REALIDADE É ISSO

      Anonymous Person Some Dissociative Disorders have people who escape from reality and into their own minds. The disorders are quite often developed after a traumatic event or anxiety or depression, as the brain’s way to involuntarily ‘take a person out’ of the ‘real’ situation that may be causing negative feelings to arise.
