Bearing down on 100%, are the thoughts that normally pass through your mind
totally useless – they do nothing;
they accomplish nothing;
they prove nothing:
they go nowhere;
they lead you nowhere.
A particular thought suddenly appears – it registers its presence – then is gone in an instant and totally forgotten, unless and until it suddenly appears again for an impotent instant.
The whole affair is as simple, runny and difficult to get off of your hands as duck shit, and yet men are not programmed to face it. Their minds are not programmed to face it, (for an obvious reason). But in its free time, when not engaged in thinking about some material something that actually exists in the world outside, the thoughts you have are thoroughly useless and they accomplish nothing. They have no effect on the life you actually end up living.
It is plain and obvious to anyone with the non-standard capacity to look at it head on. It does not require the assistance of a guru, teacher or guide. No study of a text book is necessary. No meditating or fasting is needed. All it takes is you being born with a certain unusual wiring arrangement, in a particular area of your brain/mind, that enables you to privately look at this question: “Are the thoughts I have in any way related to the life I actually lead?”
You may be assured that at any given time, out of this world’s entire population, there are but a handful of humans with the ability, the interest, the potential, the overwhelming need to deal with this question, and the aftermath of its solution. But in seeing completely through this simple, (and to ordinary minds), foolish question – you will see it all.
