Thinking

"...if there's thinking going on in the mind, simply watch it, simply let it go, and its cycling will slow down. Fewer and fewer thought-fabrications will occur. Even if the mind doesn't stop completely, it will form fewer and fewer thoughts. You'll be able to stop to watch, stop to know more and more. And this way, you'll come to see the tricks and deceits of thought-fabrication, mental labels, pleasure and pain, and so on. You'll be able to know that there's really nothing inside--that the reason you were deluded into latching on to things was because of ignorance, and that you made yourself suffer right there in that very ignorance..."
