The first principle is becoming aware of our thoughts
and the nature of thought. By taking the position of just being an observer of
the thoughts and images that come and go we discover all thoughts are the same:
they are temporary appearances that come and go like clouds in the sky. Give no
importance to one thought over another. If we pay no attention to any thought
but remain in the "observer" role, it seems the space of awareness
becomes more open and thoughts less demanding of attention. We discover all
thoughts are without substance and importance. We could say our thoughts are
"empty", like clouds: appearances without any core or entity.
