Thank you so much MikeS80. If I understand correctly, there are two types of thoughts: thoughts coming from oneness and thoughts coming from conditioning. Did I understand correctly? Having two types of thoughts is a little confusing to me. So, the separate self is unreal, but the thoughts making it are real, is that correct? Sorry, still new to this teaching, could you explain more?
