I think one has to be deluded a 'million' times by entertaining thoughts in
order to suddenly understand this always leads to delusion. I had to try all
the shit before I convinced my mind that every field of thought leads to
delusion. Nobody was able to convince me until I tried all the shit myself.
After that once I've really tried the I am sense watching and I saw that is the
only path which produces 'results', it was all finished.
What I want to emphasise here is the importance of learning by one's own
experience, the importance of suffering as the thing which tells you where not
to go, the importance of getting burnt after touching fire, a million times,
until you realize you won't touch it again.
The imprtance of other people advice (even guru's advice) is limited in
comparison to one's own try-fail-try- succeed exercise.
