Navigating a maze can be perplexing, similar to traversing the maze of our thoughts. Many perceive enlightenment as a complex puzzle within this mental maze. Yet, thinkers like Eckhart Tolle suggest that the path might be simpler than we think.

In a garden, myriad sounds like bees buzzing and birds chirping reflect our mind's thoughts. While some evoke pleasant memories, others symbolize worries and regrets. However, focusing too much on these sounds, akin to yesterday's weather or tomorrow's uncertainties, detracts from the present experience.

Our mind hosts a character, the Thinker, constantly sharing thoughts, often negative, like gossip. We seem to be in a conversation with this Thinker, who acts as an unrequested tour guide, leading us through various mental paths. Eckhart Tolle proposes a playful approach to this incessant Thinker. Rather than engaging or arguing, we can become curious tourists in our thought maze. By observing rather than reacting to the Thinker's commentary, we can find tranquil spots in our minds where life feels more vibrant.

It's vital to remember that we needn't always focus on the Thinker's chatter. Sometimes, it's beneficial to sit back, breathe in the present, and enjoy the simplicity of "Now." This approach helps manage the often negative internal dialogue. Though challenging to control, it is essential for our mental well-being.
