The mind not being active is what I think people mean by thoughtless. You can't stop thoughts from appearing, but you can get times where no ego mind thoughts are available to pay attention to.
i was taken by the beauty of a tree on my walk today i was just touching it like laying my hand on it and some guy was in a truck across the street and he sort of yelled out to me, hey, are you holding that tree up? And I just looked at him and said I guess I’m an official tree hugger because I love this tree and this tree is me. And he made a nervous laughlol but I didn’t care. Beautiful video david❤
Circadian rhythm, hugging trees, lengthening beard, the universe has you now...... There's no known cure. ❤🕉️🍄 Been in the woods today, found a knarly old silver birch who's roots had grown around the stump of a long fallen chestnut tree, within the rotting stump was growing a rhododendron, the stump and entwining roots became my backrest for a while, loooooong outbreath and time cascades inwards, bathed in impermenance, nothing is truly silent nor still when we really feel into subtlety.
😂 I remember when I was younger I went for a walk in the woods to smoke a joint because I thought it would be nice. But not long after I lit up, the buzzing Aliveness of the forest was so intense it really freaked me out and I - no joke - ran out of there 😂 wasn't prepared for it lol
@difficult_to_describe my last trip was a bit like that, was on hands and knees crying for a few hours, two old pine trees had the whole universe appreciating them like an infinite cathedral, I didn't want to leave, if my physical end had of been then it would of been one of pure awe and contentment ❤️
Great pointing. I too spent so much time trying to meditate myself into thoughtlessness. Eventually through trial and error I figured out this wasn’t possible or necessary. We are the awareness itself. Like you say, we are the one ocean. We can use the waves to look at other waves, which can be conditions or habitual patterns, but this looking is also another thought. The one ocean cannot look at itself. What we want to diminish are the reflections the waves create and become just the looking. Must be what they mean by “in seeing, only the seen…” etc. the only thing the giant eyeball at the center of everything can’t see is itself, so it creates a bunch of other little eyeballs so it can look at itself. This is probably because it wants to make sure it got all of the BBQ sauce out of its beard.😂
@@timothybarnett6161 Awesome 🙂 there is Definetely something transcendent about eyeballs 😂 my son is obsessed with eyeballs probably for that reason 😄 I'm doing apart 2 video about the deepening you're describing ❤️
I enjoyed this v much
There is only one thought, what a great pointer 😊
So beautiful. Thank you.
Yessssssss, as soon as something noticed, it is a thought, mind cannot get out of itself. Be it full or be it empty it is still a mind substance.
Thank you, David. I’m very grateful to you. ❤

😂 That's brilliant. Reminds me of my mum, she doesn't give a fuck and does stuff like that all the time 😀

@norfolkyeti I've never done mushrooms in nature, sounds beautiful.
@difficult_to_describe it puts me on my knees every time, deep belonging ❤️
@difficult_to_describe I'd love to trip with you someday but I guess it's happening anyway......

Thoughts are always there sometimes loud sometimes very soft barely noticeable. It’s really more if you’re paying attention to them that’s all-simple
😊
The problem are not thoughts, but not wanted thoughts!
