PERCEPTION VS MEMORY

Thought has its place functionally (in the office, etc.) but all fear and sorrow is thought.

Experiment, investigate if you can SEE (watch light consciously) and THINK at the same time. Or if you can listen and think at the same time.

OR.. if you think, you don't see because thinking is actually hypnosis, if you see, you cannot think.

Is it possible to watch and listen while thinking? Is it possible to think, pursue goals, while actually watching and listening?

Usually when people say "yes, of course I can see", they only think so. What they mostly "see" is their memory.

Can there be contact with thought/memory when there is contact with the (Unitary) perception of energy?

The "Gorilla in Plain Sight" Experiment: Psychologists have famously demonstrated inattentional blindness. If you are deeply engrossed in a complex thought process (like trying to solve a problem or worrying about the future), you can look right at an object or hear someone speaking to you and completely fail to perceive it.

Neural Competition: The brain's "central executive network" of thought (responsible for problem-solving) and the sensory networks compete for bandwidth. When your internal monologue is running loud, it blocks the contact with the Universal energy which is always reaching the brain.

Thought is always a delayed reaction of memory (old), whereas pure seeing, perceiving, listening is always immediate (new).

"You" are trapped in the machinery of thought (in fact "you" are a product of thought). You aren't seeing the sunset; you are seeing your own psychological commentary about it.
