"I am not what i am thinking right now. my thinking self and my core self are separate. so i think, and i think that my thinking is everything... by thinking i can figure things out. by meditating i can control my mind. or so i think. what is going through my head right now, all parts of thinking and the filters that are in place from the past. i cannot destroy filters, they will not disappear, i can only remove myself from these outer reality forms and observe.. observe the thoughts without investing in them.. allow the thoughts to go in the background of my mind, and make room for the new to emerge. i am not who i think i am. i am not my thoughts. i am not my sad old story. i am pure, i am innocent, i am the observer"
