**Note: Truth does not always sound pleasant. If the mind is not really peaceful now, it might not be a perfect moment to listen to this podcast, one has to be aware of the emotions or reactions that can block one from listenING ATTENTIVELY and with HUMILITY. This talk is a meditation practice. What one needs to do is listen attentively, without getting stuck in words, examine the mind in silence, nor agree or disagree, just look at the mind as it is. Doing so is already a meditation practice.

To inquire into the mind.

This is the thing we have to do regularly,

Repeatedly.

To understand ourselves in the dynamics of our life.

To really understand,

To observe,

To learn the movement of thoughts,

The movement of the disorder.

To see how the issue is generated,

Is formed.

It is very different from the analysis.

Where the mind relies on all kinds of knowledge,

Information,

Try to speculate,

Try to think over,

Try to associate.

That kind of analysis is in the domain of the consciousness,

A product of thoughts.

Thoughts have created all kinds of issues for us,

All kinds of problems,

Fear,

Challenges,

Without the understanding of thoughts.

Using thoughts to analyze it,

Actually only leads to greater confusion,

Misunderstanding.

So this real understanding of life is beyond the consciousness.

A mind which is trapped in the thoughts,

In the consciousness,

Thinks it is quite mysterious.

Until one understands how to perceive without being a perceiver.

And our life can be only understood by a proper perception,

Where the perceiver is totally absent.

Else the mind is trapped in different analysis,

Different theories,

And all these perpetuates the confusion about life.

That's why we inquire together into the mind to understand the total movement of thoughts.

How the disorder is created by the movement of thoughts.

How our life is built up based on the movement of thoughts.
