"Most of us believe that we have to stop the mind from thinking and when we stop the mind from thinking liberation comes. This is false.
This is false because by trying to stop the mind from thinking you're causing conflicts within yourself and we want to avoid conflict. What we want to do is to observe ourselves thinking. To watch intelligently, the mind thinking thoughts, about the past, about the future and remove the barrier between the thoughts and the Self. See the difference? You never try to stop the mind from thinking. Your mind appears to be stronger than you are and it will always win and you become disgusted and discouraged. Allow the mind to do what it wants. Never try to stop it.
Just realize within yourself that there is a barrier like a wall between you and your thoughts, between you and your mind and allow the wall to disappear. Then there will be no conflict. The thoughts will actually merge into the Self and you will become free. Always try to avoid conflict."
