Khemy : Is there something called Enlightment?

Can we stop thinking?

Hi all.


Throughout my short life I have struggled to answer a small question: How can I stop thinking? Well to be honest ..I'd rather not, cause otherwise I'll be inexistant. However, bearing in mind that thousands of thoughts can cross our mind within a matter of seconds, I always “think” how much “energy” I lose by doing so. Well the question would rather be then, how can I control my thoughts. Yes we talk about meditation, and rightly so. However, I believe meditation allows people to gain tranquility but not the drive to tackle obstacles in life.

Would love to know what you think about this.


Thanks

Khemy
