Ah, could you but restrain each single thought from arising, then would the Eighteen Sense Realms be made to vanish! -Huangbo
What is the momentum of a thought? Are some like locomotives and some like paper airplanes?
Is there anything the we can't just superman-stop? Or maybe we can't even stop any of them?
>If, as thought succeeds thought, you go on seeking for wisdom outside yourselves, then there is a continual process of thoughts arising, dying away and being succeeded by others.
