Earlier this year, I discovered Eckhart Tolle's teachings and started reading the book 'A New Earth.' It's a book which helped me clear my mind.
I'm nearly done with my second reading of the book. I also recently started reading the teachings of Jiddu Krishnamurti and have finished reading his book "Freedom from the Known."
What Tolle and Krishnamurti have helped me realized is the danger and the limitations of thought. Prior to my discovering of Tolle, I had the notion that it was thoughts and ideas which drove the world and that producing well developed thoughts and ideas would lead the way to a more fulfilling life.
I've started de-conditioning my mind and am reducing the amount of thinking that I do in life while trying to be more conscious of the present moment. I've started this blog not to put my thoughts into words or action but to spread awareness of the teachings of Tolle, Krishnamurti and similar philosophers who go beyond the limits of thought and into the realm of consciousness and being.
Eckhart Tolle's "A New Earth" is one of the best books to start moving on from the limits of thought and Jiddu Krishnamurti's "Freedom from the Known" is a great primer to get started with Jiddu Krishnamurti's teachings.
