This is a YouTube video titled "Choosing Not to Think, with Eckhart Tolle" containing a spoken segment where a speaker (likely Eckhart Tolle) discusses cultivating moments of no thought to enhance effective thinking by connecting with unconditioned consciousness. The content focuses on mindfulness and conscious breathing techniques, recorded in June 2025.
Cultivating the state of not thinking when you don't actually need to think, so that when you do need to think, your thinking is actually more effective, more powerful, more intelligent, when you are connected with the deeper realm of not thinking, which is the unconditioned consciousness. So in daily life, you cultivate as much as possible, just finding brief moments of no thought throughout your daily life. You could associate it with the breath, I call it. The briefest one is one conscious breath, as I call it, which is you breathe in, you breathe out, and while you breathe in and out, just one in breath, one out breath.
