(This is a channeled post.)

This is the time for listening deeply. We are going to talk about going beyond thoughts. We are here to understand what love is. We are here to join together in peace and love. We are here to help one another. We are here to go beyond—beyond our thoughts. We are here to go beyond what is holding us back. We are here to go beyond the cloud that we’ve been trapped in our whole lives.

Let’s try a little exercise. Close your eyes and go deep inside. Listen for the beating of your heart. You can hear it in the stillness. You have to be very quiet inside. 

Now focus your attention on your breath. You don’t have to breathe any particular way, just watch your breath. 

You can’t hear your heartbeats or watch your breath if there are thoughts in your head. If you’re trapped in your thoughts, you can’t find the stillness inside. You have to start here. Start with very simple practices to go beyond the thoughts. We are not trying to stop the thoughts. We are just going beyond them. Like an airplane passing through a cloud. We don’t have to stay in the cloud—we can pass through it and beyond.
