Freedom from thinking mind, yes that's necessary for wellness of body, mind and beyond!According to Eckhart Tolle, the author of the book 'Power of Now', the greatest achievement in life is, to let go of thinking when it's not needed. Then, we have the choice to think or not to think and we are not at the mercy of chattering mind!On this Independence Day, let’s resolve to free ourselves from the thinking mind.There is a lot of pressure from the society (the collective consciousness) to become this or that rather than learning to experience the Being.We are all nudged one way or the other to become a good leader, become a better employee, become more creative, become a better parent, become a better spouse, become a better speaker, become a better writer, become a better you tuber, BECOME…. And there are hundreds and thousands of ways to BECOME!And this takes a toll on the mind, as it is invaded by incessant stream of thoughts.According to Eckhart Tolle, BEING is the vast realm of intelligence beyond thought and when we experience being, we realize that all the things that truly matter – beauty, love, creativity, joy, inner peace – arise from beyond mind!And being is our true essence, which is immediately accessible to us as the feeling of our own Presence.BEING is the essence of becoming!Being can be simply experienced just by stepping out of the thinking mind. In everyday life, being can be practiced, in our routine activity like being aware of breathing, aware of the movement of arms while walking, and so on.Let's learn to free ourselves from the chattering mind and enjoy the journey of becoming through being!You can browse through other blogs (e.g.,
