IMPRISONED BY THOUGHTS
Courtesy – www.psmalik.com
Have you ever realized your thoughts? When you embed
your sensations in the words of a language they become thoughts. These
sensations are about the world around you hence these thoughts are the gateways
for this world to enter YOU. This world intrudes upon you through your
thoughts.
Sit comfortably and observe your thoughts. These are
either the memory of your past or desires of your future. Thoughts do not exist
in present. In the present, only the existence exists. You should understand
this thing.
… …
Observe the flow of thoughts. They are always directed
outwardly from you. Thoughts drain you out of you. They create a vacuum inside
you after you are totally drained out. This vacuum is then filled by the
thoughts of the world. When you sit, you find thoughts of office, spouse,
children, neighbours, high school camping, strategies to overcome the growth of
colleagues and the thoughts of everything. But you are nowhere in your
thoughts. Thought are never about you.
… …
Sit and try to regulate the flow of your thoughts.
Just try to channelize them. Try to focus your thoughts, say, on your spouse.
Soon you find that you have thoughts about everything but of your spouse. Your
thoughts slip away from your spouse. Again try to keep your thoughts away a
particular object, say, your dog. Soon you realize that the thoughts are again
encircle your dog. You try your thoughts to take away from your dog but they
come again and again around and about the dog. Thoughts are like untamed
beasts. They are not in your control rather you are very much in their control.
Therefore your statement that your thoughts are yours is not true. However it
may be true to say that you are of your thoughts.
… …
These thoughts are not under your control. They are
not of you. These thoughts are not ‘yours’. These thoughts are beyond your
power. Rather you are of these thoughts. Moreover, they control you. You are
completely filled with these thoughts. You cannot live without thoughts. These
thoughts are swaying you in random directions in a random fashion. You are
flowing in your thoughts. You are helpless before these thoughts.
These thoughts are not only overshadowing you in your
awakened state but they have entered into your sleep also. While with eyes
opened, you have hypertension. While trying to close your eyes you have
insomnia. Your thoughts have incapacitated you. You want to do but are not able
to do. Your thoughts have made you pathetic.
Now you are captive of your thoughts; a prisoner
imprisoned in the prison of thoughts.
Get rid of Your Thoughts.
