What is the medium in which thought occurs? Thoughts rise and fall ephemerally. There is a simultaneous appearing and disappearing of thought such that it is actually incorrect to say that there is a thought. Thought is a movement occurring within a great within. What is that within like? 

 

Why do we spend so much of our attention on the meanings of the narratives of thought. Our main focus, at least for most of us, is on what the thought says. If, even for a few moments a day, we could fasten our attention to the silence that surrounds the movement of thought we might find an aspect of experience that is of great value in liberating us from some of the difficulties that thought gives rise to. 

 

Experience has assimilated narratives from all sorts of places, good, bad, and ugly. Just consider all of the images of the horror films the average Westerner has ingested. They are still in there wreaking a sort of havoc with many of the other less toxic narratives that may be quite helpful.
