Merry Christmas!What makes thoughts different from direct experience? are they some how separated?

An apple perceived by senses is different from an idea of an apple or memory of an apple.

Thats true but is there a separation from perceived thoughts and perception?

Postby **sophie1** » Sat Dec 27, 2014 4:27 pm

in reality are things good or bad?

Postby **sophie1** » Wed Dec 31, 2014 2:09 am

In reality things are neutral, thoughts label them as good or bad

what stops thoughts?

Postby **sophie1** » Wed Dec 31, 2014 4:17 pm

A thought "stop thoughts" may stop thoughts for some time, but not for long
