Hi Larry,
Not "remember" to "remember". Remembering is using our conscious mind.
It is to forget and forget, so that our heart would shine through.

Thank you so much for that. Spot on. Unfortunately, can talk this
stuff all day long, but practicing it? living it? In minutes I fall
'victim' to this world without even knowing it.The best I can do is to
remember to remember.

All thoughts, afterthoughts.

Seemly that, Seamless this.
The neural lag/disconnect are aspects of 'Maya', the dance or
interplay (Lila) therewith. In that sense, illusory. Like time.
Nothing escapes Indra's net, nothing caught by it. Only the
ever-present interweaving of emptiness into suchness.
To parrot-phrase Wei Wu Wei (aka Terence Gray - who Suresh might
enjoy reading as no doubt Mr. Tolle has): 'Maya' = manifestation.

Kris,
I agree. I call the thought world 'delusion' - past, present and
future. As far as I can tell there are no thoughts of the
present. There is only experience in the present, and experience
preceeds thought.
