Why “Don’t Think” ? ? ?
When you are walking, you never thought about how to move your foot.
Same as to read this blog. You are using your brain and thinking “What a hell
this guy is talking about” still, it is about the meaning of “What was written”
but not about the action, [Reading] itself. = Your eyes automatically scan the
line and pick the pattern of Alphabet —– and in most of the case, you don’t need
to even think what I wrote here = as no sophisticated literacy or academic
knowledges were needed to read this.
So that, to read this, you don’t need to “Consciously” think anything.
Almost automatically your eyes gliding over the line. (While unconsciously
feeling “nothing special = ignore this” 🙂 )

Yet still, when the matter came to the famous theory of [Nut Macadam]
suddenly your brain awake and try to sort out “What this Nut Macadam is”
because you don’t know what this is, and you don’t want branded to be an
Ignorant = since this could be important and missing this might be
disadvantageous. = (Your Greed and Ego was alerted !)
So that, suddenly your thinking started to be in full swing. (Though,
no such Nut Macadam has a value more than a Peanut, this
thinking process would find nothing.)

Like this experiment, you may become aware a fact that the thinking is
associated with the own ego and greed. In other words, your own “Self”.
“The Self” is so eager to defend the own interest and try to gain something
though, see the situation. On the end what you gain ? = And in any way
you will loose all you have gained and die soon or later.
(So, Don’t think is in fact same as “To be Selfless”)
Or is it a game to make a life more fun ?
(Make a life more fun = this is in fact the way of the Mahayana, instead to
live sombre life with so-called “Contemplation”. 🙂 )
