Thinking Folly by Eckhart Tolle

Thinking folly

We less using our brain because we fear to fail

“Thinking Folly” is an article that has written by a talented writer and a contemporary spiritual teacher named Eckhart Tolle. He stated that via thinking it can be a disease to us. I’m not on his side or object him but in my opinion, his statement can be wrong and can be true. As for me myself, we must think deeply no matter what before we do something so that we are not slip up. We can’t our mind from thinking of something. 

Our life journey also was shaped based on our think a lot of things. Why we do that? Because we don’t want to regret in the future because of something that caused by our wrong decision before. We should grateful because we are different with another creature. We have mind and able to think then decided what’s right and what’s wrong or else we are in the same boat with animal or plant because they do not own this miracle gift that we call as a mind. 

On the other hand, we are easily cheated by our own mind. Let’s say everyone scare to ghost in the darkness but when they are in bright place do they still in scare? Ask yourself why this happen? This is because they are controlled by their mind. In the darkness their mind will said that there are ghost everywhere that is why they will feel uneasy and scare while in bright place the set their mind that there is nothing to scare so we safe. 

Think is a good to get the best result of something but on one time we think a lot of things until our brain become so snarl-up how could we think rationally? That’s why Eckhart stated that thinking can be a disease.
