   It's not real to me that thought can transcend itself, so perhaps you   
   have a different notion of what thought is than I do. Can you say what   
   thought is --without going into the various things it does? How does   
   it transcend itself?

   The only time I can stop thought is when meditating. My ex husband was great   
   at it with alcohol.  I would love to know how to magically transcend it by   
   what? More thought?  Really am interested in knowing..
