you lost me with nothing the mind comes up with is true. Imagination is more important then knowledge is what I go by. With out the power to create nothing can ever grow.

Do you mean follow your heart? I always go with my first instinct in the brain as long as it is seconded by the heart?



"None other than the power of your presence, your consciousness liberated from thought forms.

So deal with the past on the level of the present. The more attention you give to the past, the more you energize it, and the more likely you are to make a "self" out of it. Don't misunderstand: attention is essential, but not to the past. Give attention to the present; give attention to your behavior, to your reactions, moods, thoughts, emotions, fears, and desires as they occur in the present. There's the past in you. If you can be present enough to watch all those things, not critically or analytically but nonjudgementally, then you are dealing with the past and dissolving it through the power of your presence. You find yourself by coming into the present."
Eckhart Tolle
