As it is, I would say about 80 to 90 percent of most people's thinking is not only repetitive and useless, but because of its dysfunctional and often negative nature, much of it is also harmful. Observe your mind and you will find this to be true. It causes a serious leakage of vital energy.
Eckhart Tolle - Truth - Thinking - Negative - Energy

Fear arises through identification with form, whether it be a material possession, a physical body, a social role, a self-image, a thought, or an emotion.

Eckhart Tolle - Truth - Spiritual - Thinking - Fear - Assets - Emotion - Ego - Freedom
