"It is not necessary to stop [the mind's activity] if you understand what is happening, if you understand that it is still presence. When is it happening? Just ask yourself that question. When is all this happening? The obvious answer is that it can only be happening presently. So, is it anything other than presence? The happening itself is movements of energy. Thoughts are subtle sound. Sound is energy and energy is just vibration. So it is that omnipotence, that 'all-power'. It is omnipresence; it is 'all-presence'. And the knowing of that, the awareness of it, knowing that I am, the pure knowing is the 'all-knowing', the omniscience. It does not mean to know this or know that; it is just pure knowing. Pure knowing is the totality of knowing.

thoughts are subtle sound? so like deaf people have none then? air molecules swirling in this guy's brain, man... i love gurus who mix talk of the 5 elements with quantum uncertainty principles and everything is energy slash vibration talk.

talk talk talk, can we get back to cartoon:z over the weequend?

This seems a little bit confused.

The idea that thought is necessarily sound, no matter how subtle, is self-evidently false.

The idea that thought happens presently, if by presently you mean now, is again self-evidently false. Thought is always a past event.

Mind is of the nature of reaction. It is never presence. ;)

"So says mind"

indeed it does,

without mind - silent abidance.



Now that's no good for an argumentative sod like me.
