THINKING FOLLY BY ECKHART TOLLE


Thinking folly, is an article written by the famous person, Eckhart Tolle, also have his own channel called Eckhart TV, and many other things.  This article is piece of writing that exposes how the manners of thinking touch the quality of people’s attitude. The extract by Eckhart Tolle also highlighted some magnitudes of creative thinking and what kind of barriers or grounds that seizes in our minds. Everyone lives in a state of ostensible detach in complicated world of divergence and dilemmas. When people think, an opaque screen of concepts would be created which means that the illusion of separateness between people themselves would be exist. Thus, all the judgments, labels and words that block the true relationship will be divided into few bonds. They are people and themselves, people and nature, and people and God. Mind is just like a survival machine. It does a lot of things such analyzing, storing, gathering information and attack or defense again another minds.  He wrote that the thinker, which he meant all of us humans live in a separate world and apparently not as friendly as we may assume because our thinking is filled with insanely complex world of continuous conflict and problems like an infinite twilight zone and represent the ever increasing fragmentation of the mind. I would say that Tolle is right because as a thinker, making a decision and being indecisive is always a part of our mind venturing into the unknown. 

According to the figure as shown in the excerpt “Thinking Folly”, Albert Einstein posed himself by sticking out his tongue towards the camera. This picture is showing that he was trying to portray himself as an astute clown which means the smart “ass” clown. Although he often used a sense of humor during his pose or his conversation, yet he stills a genius. For example :

Einstein himself was trying to highlight that fun and plays are a part of creative mind thinking. Creative is said to come in a still mind and can be achieve in a quiet state of mind. So if you’re a heavy thinker, STOP it because you’re losing all your creativity! Though said, the mind carries a freedom that one can’t stop and having realized you are not on your on shadow make you wake up from the deep mind slumber. Typically, when people did not think sensibly in any matter of problems or situations, they will become the toil of their psyche all at once.Therefore, I sure enough to support and agree wtih Eckhart Tolle based on his excerpt, "Thinking Folly".
