Do you identify with the voice that narrates your thoughts? Are your thoughts the result of you or are you the result of your thoughts? What is the difference between mind and thought?
In this article we explain how they differ and how we can identify them to stop identifying with what we “think we are” and explore everything we really are.
Do you know what awareness means?
In this podcast by Enric Más Cerca “Dialogues for Awareness” a guide is proposed to carry out an internal process of self-inquiry through a series of reflective questions posed by Enric Corbera.
Over time we have ended up confusing wisdom with the accumulation of data, culture as an excuse to stand out egoically and mastery as the simple improvement of any habit. We situate the figure of the wise man as unattainable and we idealize his capabilities as something alien or utopian.
In this conference, Enric Corbera explains that wisdom is a facet that each and every one of us can develop.
The mind and thoughts
Conversation about mind and thoughts
– “If we only know our own mind how can we separate it from our thoughts?» –David Bohm
– “You can’t call it your mind. You only have a brain that is conditioned.” – Jiddu Krishnamurti.
-“I feel that everything that happens to me inside is mine and is very different from what is happening inside another person” – D. Bohm
– “No, I doubt that what happens inside me as a human being and in you as another human being is different. We both go through all kinds of problems, suffering, fear, …”. – J. Krishnamurti
This dialogue is a from the conversation between Jiddu Krishnamurti (India, 1895 – USA, 1986), a writer and speaker on philosophical and spiritual matters and a student of the nature of the mind, and David Bohm (USA, 1917 – United Kingdom, 1992), a theoretical physicist recognized by his studies in quantum physics and also for his interest in exploring the nature of thought and intelligence. The two met in the early 1960s and left a legacy of conversations that were a gift to the world.
Both reflected on an original thought that makes us believe that we are all separate.
Difference Between Mind and Thought
the mind is an illusion
The mind is one, even though we believe we are separate “because my body is different from yours, because my face is different from yours” says Krishnamurti.
Is Fundamental rules our lives, We think what happens outside has nothing to do with us. And if we think that the force of everything that happens outside has nothing to do with us, it can destroy us, then we feel fear. And fear feeds back on itself.
According to David Bohm, the statement “the mind is an illusion” is not so obvious “when a person considers it for the first time.” We know that this illusion lives in the limits, in the narrowness, in the above and below, in the dimensions. A non-dual mind cannot imagine the non-limit.
It is something that the BEING expresses in this particle of consciousness, which is released when it stops judging and clinging to its values as if they were something real. It is a grace, to open your eyes, the zenith of the spiritual seeker who finally understands that there is nothing to look for, simply to transcend duality.
To do this, stop judging it, which is the same as not reinforcing it, giving it a meaning that is not real. It is pure illusion. By moving away from the mind we can focus on the fundamentals and simply observe our conditioning.
Bioneuroemotion: transcending the dual mind
Meditation is not an act, it is a habit
Krishnamurti affirms that there is a universal mind that “lives in space and in silence.” And he continues: “This mind can be perceived by the brain through the ”. For this “it is not necessary to presuppose a meditator meditating” since meditation, simply, “takes place when the brain is quiet.”
In other words, if we learned to stop obeying our thoughts, we would have the option of connecting with the universal mind that is pluripotential. But we live focused on what what we consider our mind tells usand that is precisely full of , of values, of learning, of inheritance. Many of us, when we want to stop listening to our own thoughts, meditate, look for a mantra, play sports or go on a retreat.
Conclution
Krishnamurti tells us that silence is the space of the universal mind. It refers to the silence of thoughts. And, we can access that silence on a day-to-day basis, in our daily lives, without the need to carry out any specific activity.

In Bioneuroemoción this state corresponds to what we call transcending the dual mind, it is the first step to reconnect with our true nature and be owners instead of prisoners of our mind.
