You Don’t Create Your Thoughts, You Tune Into Them Came across this clip of Asha Nayaswami (TikTok: @ashanayaswami) — a longtime teacher in the Ananda lineage of Paramhansa Yogananda. She teaches meditation, attunement, and practical spirituality, drawing from both the Bible and the Bhagavad Gita. Thoughts, she says, are vibrations of consciousness that already exist. You pick them up the way a radio picks up a station — from the music you hear, the people you’re with, the news or images you watch. “Thoughts are not individually created. They’re universal. And we do not actually create our own thoughts. We merely attune ourselves to vibrations of consciousness that already exist in the universe. There are many simultaneously existing levels of consciousness — from the most evil, depraved level of consciousness to the saints and the masters whose consciousness is infinite. And our own destiny is that ultimately we will all realize our actual true nature. And realize is the right word. Realization is interesting because you don’t acquire it. You don’t earn it. You don’t get points. You don’t win it in the lottery. You just — it’s always there, and you become aware of it.” I’m not sure this is the whole story — but it’s an interesting way to sit with the mind. What if thoughts aren’t something we manufacture so much as something we pick up, like a station we happen to be tuned to? That wouldn’t make us helpless. It would just make curiosity more useful than self-blame. Notice what you keep company with. Notice what softens when the inner dial shifts. If nothing else, it asks a gentle question: if this thought isn’t entirely “mine,” what would I rather listen for?
