there is so much constant external stimulation in our lives I'm wondering if what we now call mediation is what used to just simply be called thinking, and is really just the absence of any overwhelming external noise. Fuck the noise.

kk got it. have you ever practiced "formally" meditation? imagine how einstein could focus when he was working on that library lol. the difference of stimulus is just so overwhelming between now and then

Not formally. Probably should give it a shot.

That's cool man, my experience may not be the same as your experience plus I may not be talking with authority at all if my experience of meditation is limited.

hahaha that's a hell of an insight there. hopefully i didn't come accross as <insert term in english that refers to someone looking down on other people because they don't have the same level of expertise in something that them>. 100% wasn't that intention. the thing with meditation is that its mission is to actually observe the thinking. not to think. you extract yourself from the thought process and slowly and steadily begin to realize that you are actually not the thinker. the thinker is an ongoing process that just happens and is part of life. thinker and thought and the process of thinking merge into the experience of now kinda
