Peripheral Phenomenon or Thoughtless Perception

There is a longing in people to be free of the incessant thinking in their mind. ...of the noise in the head

Eckhart Tolle.

Life, according to Eckhart Tolle, is often reduced to a peripheral phenomenon when we are lost in thought. 

How often do we say, "I don't have time for sunsets...beauty...I have a lot on my mind."

Many of us "live in our heads". We see the world, then, through a periphal view and just catch glimpses. of it. We are perceiving the world through the veil of thought, rather than through thoughtless perception.  Two fold nature of perception is to be aware of what we are seeing and more importantly of Self as awareness.  We will see more in that which we perceive  when we do that...We will  see the conscious awareness in ourselves and in that which we are looking at.

All is well
