A Passed-On Thought Is Reincarnation

A passed-on thought is reincarnation.
A passing thought, if not passed on, is wisdom.

Catch it if you can.

Thoughts aren’t permanent structures but, if they’re repeated enough times, they cement our brains wiring. We become a type, a culture. Even though we may be aware of this phenomenon, a residue of attitude still echos in our responses. This is what we each have to work with – the subtle traumas we acquired when we were young which make us predicable.

Through meditation and beyond (dropping the meditation), the realisation occurs that we are the pure essence of mind, simply being.

Simply: absolutely, completely. 

The moment when a thought or emotion arises, instead of reacting and allowing that thought to become a driving force for our entire life, it becomes wisdom. When there is nothing to hold onto, thoughts come to pass … as in “I see you Mara!”

Reincarnation is the continuity of the last moment,
driven by the last thought.

Not holding on allows the next moment to incarnate spontaneously,
rather than being brain-bound by any previous idea.
