My experience has been that I'm not only thinking the things I think I'm thinking, but I'm thinking things I don't even think I'm thinking. So when you feel bad and you described it perfectly, going in circles, feeling bad, feeling like you can't go out and do things functionally, all of a sudden you feel alienated. That is an alienation of an absolute knowing nature that if that exists, and I would suggest that it does, because to begin to contemplate that it does begins to disband a lot of the seeming sticky thoughts that we get stuck in that seem to go round and round and seem to be happening to us, all of a sudden there's a sort of disillusion of those things, literally dissolving of those things, because our focus is no longer on maintaining them by thinking more about them.
Ever feel like your mind is playing tricks on you? In this episode of 'Mental Obsession Discussion / Emotional Sobriety', We Know Jack takes you on a journey through the maze of mental obsession and emotional sobriety. It's not just about quitting a habit; it's about changing the way you think. Imagine trying to stop thinking a thought while you're still thinking it—sounds impossible, right?
This episode tackles that head-on, exploring how our thoughts can either imprison us or set us free. You'll hear an engaging conversation that questions our conventional views on compulsive thinking and self-alienation.
