Oh! I now received an additional insight when I started the new practice of going into direct feelings and bypassing thoughts. And something surprising was that it reduced my suffering instead of as usual increasing it. The new insight is that I can combine the direct feeling with the state of total confusion that Osho talked about.
Usually the mind is heavily conditioned to avoid confusion and when trying to consciously focus on confusion the result is ordinarily of increased suffering. Pretty horrible. The amazing discovery is that when combining the state of total confusion with going into direct feelings instead of thinking, the suffering is reduced! And it makes sense in the light of the transparent astral crystal which in itself is unaffected by content such as thoughts. I will continue this practice to see if more suffering can be dissolved this way.
