Clearer Thinking with Spencer Greenberg

NOTE

The Importance of Observing

The speaker emphasizes the importance of being present and aware of sensations in the present moment. They explain that even thoughts and plans are just observations occurring in the moment. The speaker notes that there is no separate observer and that thoughts are relatively small compared to the sensations of the room. They mention that being more present allows for a greater awareness of all sense experiences. The conversation explores the idea that everything is aware and functioning according to its nature. Attention can still be selective, but there remains a sense of proportionality.
