Thoughts as doorways to Space

As we found in our last session, thoughts cannot be inhabited. That seems to be a good explanation for why we are quite frustrated most of our time, because most of us think a lot. This same frustration I experience with a poster on my wall (see photo). I put it there to remind me of the spacious feelings I always have when I spend some days at the osean. But looking at the poster is like thinking thoughts. It is flat and is only an image of space, that itself cannot be inhabited. But what if I take the image as a pointer too space. There is space around the poster that can be inhabited. There is also space between thoughts maybe even within them. Instead of trying to inhabit the thought, which only crates new thoughts, I can use them as forms in space and let me be drawn into the space part of the thought as least as much as into the content. This way thinking might become tremendously helpful on our exploration of ever more space, the one therapy we need.

    I like this Klaus…thoughts a “pointer to space” and noticing the “space between thoughts” and “even within them”… and “I can use them as forms in space and let me be drawn into the space”…

    Yes, this resonates with me.
