Fixing my thoughts Finlay Brockett

We always look to thought to solve our problems but has anyone ever thought that thought is the cause of our problems and not the solution to them? If thought was the solution to the problems of the world which have all been created by thought, thought would have solved all the problems by now. We have been fixing the problems that our thoughts cause us with our thoughts which means that the criminal is dressing up in the garb of the policeman. Are we ever going to see through the charade or are we always going to be thinking that thinking can fix thinking? To fix thinking is the wrong way to go about things. We really shouldn't be trying to fix thinking what we should be doing is trying to understand thinking. When we understand thinking we fix thinking. When we try to fix our own thoughts without understanding the structure and design of thinking we only mess it all up which is what we have been doing for tens of thousands of years...1. Judgments and opinions are endless, and the conflict caused by them is endless as well 2. Self-Deception 3 Thought can never be holistic 4. The only thing that thought has got right is that it has got everything wrong 5. Memory can't relate to anything except the past and the future and that's where everybody functions from 6. Thinking in terms of opposites is one of the major causes of psychological and emotional pain in our lives. 7. Knowledge is the cause of unknowing rather than knowing 8. Without an open mind there can be no freedom 9. Mysticism means to open the door 10. Fixing my thoughts...with my thoughts 11. The white wolf 12. Not knowing is the highest form of intelligence 13. A spiritual experience 14. The phenomena of craving 15. Imprisoned by our own thoughts... 16 The biggest addiction of all 17. Death and Meditation 18. Cutting the strings
