Can the timing of useful interrupting thoughts be trained? Based on my long-term experience, thoughts that arise during Doodle RAMa Meditation often offer insights, practical guidance, and even solutions to present or past challenges—serving both Artha (purposeful living) and self-awareness. However, not all interrupting thoughts are valuable; many are clearly ego-based distractions with no real substance.
Now, I’m considering whether it’s possible to shift the arrival of these insightful thoughts to a different time or environment, so they don’t disrupt the meditation process. During Doodle RAMa Meditation Practice, I seem to enter a mental state similar to theta waves—an open, thought-free awareness. What I seek is the ability to invite useful thoughts consciously, rather than having them intrude randomly. This would require developing a kind of inner “sorting” awareness.
The idea is to maintain an empty, receptive mind and to quickly write down any meaningful thoughts to release them and return to stillness. But I wonder: will this process require frequent writing, or just occasional notes? More importantly, how do I train myself to distinguish between true insight and mental noise during this theta-like state? Developing this discernment seems key to evolving the practice.
