 I think most of us have felt these things at one time or another. If you want a way of dealing with them, then ''Beyond Thought'' is a book you should read.
-''Beyond Thought'' is the last in a three part series from Chris Dhladhla. It follows on from [https://www.amazon.co.uk/Power-Character-Transcending-Thought/dp/1986660923 The Power of Character] and [https://www.amazon.co.uk/Power-Now-Moment-Transcending-thought/dp/1984124609 The Now Moment] and its aim is to show us how to transcend thought by experiencing consciousness and allowing it to be revealed in our everyday lives. It is both a simple and a difficult concept to grasp but, Dhladhla maintains, a necessary one. For Dhladhla, reality is experienced rather than expressed or defined tangibly and it can only be limited with words.

 This leaves me, the reviewer of his book, in some difficulty because I do not wish to limit Dhladhla's insights and understandings by filtering them through me and to you. Nevertheless, that is what a review is. So I'll tell you all the things that I found helpful or interesting.

 ''If you become what you want to see, instead of discussing or commenting about it, you become a pictogram of wordless teaching. You don't have to talk to me to teach me.''
-I found ''Beyond Thought'' both insightful and interesting. It's a short, pithy book of just sixty-odd pages but it packs in a lot of advice and information. It's clear that Dhladhla wants the world to be a better, kinder place and for people to lead more aware, more connected lives. And his book is a worthy contribution to that lofty ambition. I'm very glad I read it and I hope that I can put at least some of these principles into operation. I'm  sure my life would be the better for it.

+Have you ever felt trapped by your own thoughts? That your mind is so busy processing what's going on in the world around you that you just can't catch a moment and simply ''be''? Or that the outside world just won't stop pressing in upon an inner life that you'd like to be more peaceful?
