This book thats all over TT is extremely valuable if your neurotic and anxious like myself. It will help you relax your mind and expand your consciousness

Quotes

“In actuality, we only want these external results like money and significance because we want to experience certain feelings inside such as love, joy, peace, and fulfillment. The feeling is really what we want in our lives, not the physical things, but the trap is that we believe the physical things will give us those feelings. The secret lies within the feeling.”

“If you want to find truth, look beyond the words, and look for a feeling.”

"People have a hard time letting go of their suffering. Out of a fear of the unknown, they prefer suffering that is familiar.” ― Thich Nhat Hanh

“The root cause of our suffering is our own thinking.”

“Thoughts create. Thinking destroys.”

Im saying when you dont think you get divine jntervention that will pop up the best thoughts in your head. Thinking /=/ thoughts if that makes sense

So basically just repeat in your mind “thinking is the root of all suffering”

And your brain will stop thinking and you’ll go on autopilot

But often times there is truth to our "perceived sufferings" ... just that too much introspection, doomscrolling and confirmation bias hunting exaggerates the problem.

ER was a good example.

I like to think, I hate when I feel like my head is empty and inactive.

I am the polar opposite of a Buddhist monk psychologically.

Its weird because not thinking makes me more creative and happy, I thought of a million dollar Idea yesterday that i would never have thought of if i tried to think of it.

Not thinking doesnt mean your head is empty it means you get thoughts that occur naturally from the universe or God or whatever
