Oh wow. We are doing this together, bangaroo. Today my body is also not in peak health, got dizzy head and sore throat. Lol, I feel your pain.
Yes, it's simplest thing ever. That which is simple is difficult for the mind to grasp, because it's trained to look at everything as complicated.
Yes. You are getting it, clarity= simplicity.
Can you see how really obvious that is. All simply is. Including thoughts about 'me'.

Are they your thoughts, are you thinking them?
Can a thought itself think?
"thoughts about me are sticky" it's just another thought passing by effortlessly.
What is the glue that holds it sticky?

namaste Ilona,
hope you are better
its 10 pm here in Bombay, India
and i'm sleepy and tired but have
to think as you made it interesting :)
i dont know where these thoughts
come from and i dont know
where they go to. if i take
them seriously they stick.
attention is the glue. if i
ignore them, they pass by
i'm drowsy with the meds for cold and fever
phir milenge Ilona :)

Very good. Attention makes thoughts sticky. Attention to what? If you hold attention to a wall, will that feel the same sticky as attention to 'me'? how does it happen, can you look into thought - feeling- thought connection. Tell me what you find.

namaste Ilona,
hope you are feeling better
instead of just letting the thoughts go,
if i hold on to them and think further
then thats the glue. the attention or
the importance one attaches to the thought
if i think about a wall i think of pink floyd
and if i think about me i am worried about
this cold and turning into a cough thingy
so a thought can make me feel bad or good.
if i think of flowers, blue sky, rainbows and
Ilona i feel good. if i think about my office,
commuting, politicians i fee bad. so yes there
is a connection between what i think and what
i feel. if i think of no self i feel cool. so cooooooooool :)
on a scale of 0 to 10 where am i now Ilona ??
phir milenge :)

0 as always.
Where do you believe you are?
Very good answer- the attention or importance is attachment - what is the most important thought? Me, I. What is so important about those words? How are they special?
The thought can make me feel bad or good. - yes, thoughts are charged and bring up feelings.
But as you see it's all about 'me'. That imaginary 'me' is the core that holds it all together. It's the glue.
Can you see that thought me is empty?

awakens in the plant
feels in the animal
and is aware of itself in man.
