Uncoupling The Tracks

 If a train is going on the tracks and you uncouple the tracks ahead of the train, then the train cannot go anymore.  It needs the tracks.  The mind is like the tracks and the train is thought, as in useful, agreeable and natural.  Nothing wrong with such thoughts.  Unless you are trying to meditate.  Thoughts go along at one level, surface.  Meditation is to take us deeper into the heart of ourself.  It’s at this deeper place that change takes place over time.  Silence within is what can uncouple the tracks on the surface.  I use breath to uncouple.  Some use a word or phrase.  Methods of meditation are simply to uncouple the thoughts from moving along in some scenario.  Thoughts are not about good and bad.  They are about distraction from being moved by a Power into our heart center.
