soupp August 17, 2013 Share soupp Member August 17, 2013 Wanted to share this concept with you all - got me thinking. So it goes.... Can you think about thinking a thought? Answer - No you can't, thinking about a thought is just thinking. There is no way to think about a thought because thinking about a thought is just thinking. source of question/wisdom: Alan Watts, my new hero.

MPG1770 September 5, 2013 Share MPG1770 GC Server Admin September 5, 2013 I just thought of an idea about thinking of thoughts, it just came to my mind without thinking about it. Therefore, thoughts can be thought of without thinking about them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDude September 5, 2013 Share TheDude Member September 5, 2013 it just came to my mind without thinking about it Unsatisfactory. For something to come to mind, you have to be thinking first. Doesn't have to be about what you came up with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onthefly September 16, 2013 Share onthefly Member September 16, 2013 im a huge alan watts reader myself. definitely have a taoist mindset. ultimate respect. never thought id see this stuff here. words are both good and bad. people just dont know when to stfu in their minds and allow things to exist the way they are. in other words a tree really isnt a tree. see it for what it is and you will realize this.
