No, you are not. Feeling will get you closer to the truth of who you are than thinking. I cannot tell you anything that deep within you don’t already know.
Julie Gardinal
This is such a turnaround from the Enlightenment period where the rational thinking brain was at the core of science and development, it is the foundation of most of our human constructs. Thinkers such as Locke, Hume, Rousseau and Descartes are known for their rational foundation. Eckhart Tolle is challenging this deeply embedded reality by stating that the biggest error is to identify and derive a sense of self from the thinking brain. I have to think of Descartes cogito: "Cogito, ergo sum" --> "I think, therefore I am" : that sounds like mind identification to me ?
