Inquiry
Hi,
This is what I meant by Real Self:
A living, Thinking and Feeling Autonomous Being that is Physically separate from Others.
-The mind that is vigilant and aware, will stop going astray the moment it sees what is happening.
No doubt that the feelings and emotions are the response of the the thought when it travels back in the stored memories. It is so fast that one does not realize the time interval between the insults hurled, your sensory organs captures it, transmit sit to the brain, the mind analyzed it and responds accordingly.
Ideally, yes, but in actuality we don’t always see the error of our thinking, whether its due to emotion, ignorance, or irrationality. The more closely and critically we observe our thinking, the more we learn about distortion, denial, and all the cognitive errors thought is prone to.
