Hello and welcome.
My name is Jim Rajan.
Let us have a look at thought.
Firstly,
What is thought?
We all think.
We all have thoughts,
Images,
Ideas,
Rhythms that run through our mind.
I read somewhere once that said we have roughly 20,
000 thoughts a day.
But if you take away the inner story,
Imagery,
Feelings that thought provokes and symbology,
What is thought?
What is left?
Thought is energy.
It is a single energetic signature.
You might even call it light.
A thought is almost like a wave of light in its most simple form that gets framed or arranged into something that is given shape,
Texture,
Colour,
Imagery.
A thought itself is like pure essence,
Energetic essence that gets scooped up by consciousness and formulated into meaningful information.
Now,
When I say meaningful,
I'm saying that it has some kind of meaning to the human that it is being expressed through.
Energy,
Light,
Lightness,
Flows through you all the time.
And that energy that flows through the mind-conscious part of you creates thoughts.
And almost instantly,
Feelings get attached to that.
In effect,
The thought,
With its story,
Colour,
Significance,
Imagery,
Sound even,
Is the result.
It is all of consciousness flowing through you to help you formulate experience.
Through thought you create,
Do you not?
Thought is the impetus for creation.
All around you is energy.
Take any material down to its smallest possibility and you have energy,
A mathematical wave.
The frequency you relate to this,
For example,
Might be a hard wooden table.
But it is actually an expression of the compression of energy.
Thought is the same.
It is pure light,
Pure essence being compressed by the mind to create experience.
If thought and how the thought feels is the result,
How does one control one's own thought?
How can you govern this continuous expression of energy and light through you?
Nobody wants bad,
Negative or ugly thoughts,
Though they do appear.
Well,
When you understand that the mind is the carpenter of thought,
What is important is to learn the skill of the carpenter.
Why focus on the table,
The end result,
When actually you need to focus on the energy,
On light,
Pure essence?
How do you do this?
By putting your attention on consciousness,
Awareness.
Attend to your own awareness in as much of your day as possible.
Understand that the thought doesn't come from nowhere.
It comes from essence,
Light,
Pureness,
From a greater good.
Why try to control thought?
The result,
When you can focus on essence,
The impetus.
A thought is made of energy and so are you.
The body is the result just as the thought is.
Allow yourself,
Permit yourself to relate to the essence of all that is,
All that is.
Instead of focusing on the result of thought,
Give yourself over to energy,
Essence,
Potential possibility just waiting to be arranged by you,
By your heart,
By your soul's presence,
Deep presence,
The deepest of deep presence.
Everything is energy,
Latent potential energy,
Quietly waiting to be expressed.
And a thought only matters if you decide it matters.
Remember,
It is just the result.
Attend to the energetic all around you,
Engulfing you in goodness,
And be the impetus for new thought.
Put,
Place your focus where you want it,
On the fact that you are one with all essence,
All energy,
All light,
Instead of fighting the result,
Instead of fighting what has already been made.
Thank you.
