BREAK THOUGHT
     So I’m going to catch myself without making another mistake of living in time. Thought is always in time. So I break thought, then there will be a pause in which there is no thought at all and in that I am free. And when you do this for the first time, when you really see that you can be without a thought at all, you’ll want to work on yourself every minute because you have sighted the way out at last; so that you are not depending on thought to keep your false personality intact. It is only thinking that keeps it in place. Our task is to throw it out altogether so that I can see that something is self-defeating and then say “All right, I saw it. I am not going to linger on it so as to feel myself as a great sinner. I am going to drop thought.”

I would say that the most frightening thought that ever comes to a human being is the idea of coming to the end of thought. Because when there is no thinking anymore, you/ I cease to exist which, thank heaven, is what we were looking for all along. But we are afraid to look at it because “What would happen if I let go of my success, my reputation of being the nice man?” What would happen is that you would be out of the cage. But we don’t know this. We have it exactly backward. What we value is ruining us. And what we reject could save us. It is best to reverse our thinking.

END THE CAVE OF PAIN
     What bothered you inside you today? Are you willing to do something different and see through the hoax? If so then you have to take spiritual action, which means walking away from what you’ve protected so foolishly — the cave of pain. Any time during your day you are going to break that emotional stabbing that you felt inside. You’re going to interrupt it and say in a spiritual voice, “I don’t want to associate with you anymore, and with the help of Truth itself, I am not going to.”
