Thank you for taking the time to show this, I'm very greateful. I have a little doubt, I read that book and found it very good. But in your perception, cuz I guess in this moment I can't see it. How focusing on now constantly will bring to you the reality you want for yourself. I know if you put things in the future, will always remain there. How then can we find a good "daydream" focus on the present now without placing that vibration in an "eternal" future

The daydream that you are creating is in the present moment, the trick is avoiding the assumption that it's somewhere in the future or other than in the "now".

No, you don't just stop thinking, that is what creates more thoughts and keeps you in suffering. You first become aware of your "thoughts" and "sit still" and let them gradually quiet down. And once the stream of thought quiets down by putting a lot of your attention "inside you." You then focus on the "space" in between thoughts. So "thoughts" still come and go, you just don't "identify" yourself with them.

And to focus my thinking, I release to God the fears and troubles in the past that bothers my focus on thinking. Then have more self awareness and being more aware of what's around me. Also, this helps me avoid being the prey in life.

This is the most fundamental teaching of Zen Buddhism.

@wannabeastarrover say you do something that "you" didnt like, like you said something out loud and instantly you thought that it sounded dumb and are embarrassed for it. now, say the same situation happens and instead of instantly becoming embarrased, we dont completley believe that it sounded dumb, it just sounded how it sounded. heck, the people around you might not even think it soudned stupid, and if they did and brnig it up, itll be a good laugh.

think echart takes things to far by seemingly not having goals in the futer , while i fully understand that allways placing a goal in the futer we may never get there, we need to work on the steps to the goal inside the now,plus the past should be used as a learning toool , past can only effect us in negative ways in the now if we choose to see things we did as ''bad'' but we are fully able to change our viewpoint of anything that happends to us,if we change the view we change how it effects us

What should I do right now/today or can do right now/today that will make me feel right (happiness, satisfaction, love, security, perfection)? Is what the present moment is. Live right in the present tense.
