Types Of Thinking

Confident thinking.
Fixated thinking.
Indifferent thinking.

Confident thinking is non-aggressive … caring.
Fixated thinking is aggressive … I care.
Indifferent thinking is uncomprehending … who cares?

Confidence comes from generosity, patience, morality, discipline, concentration – not taking sides.
Fixation comes from my generosity, patience, morality, discipline, concentration – my side.
Indifference come from not bothering about generosity, patience, morality, discipline, concentration – apathy to all sides.

We have to be honest about how we feel because that expresses itself in our speech and actions, and even in our facial muscles.

People may say, “So Buddhists aren’t supposed to think?!”
We all think, but much depends on the quality of that thinking, and whether that thinking becomes our thought-bank of set reactions.

The type of thinking we practise
expresses the type of person we are
…and it shows 🙂
