Warm and helpful recognition that thinking can be a long lost friend coming back into one's life instead it being - as many advisors about 'enlightenment' maintain - an enemy one should make efforts to get rid of or obliterate! I like that very much and the focus on the rehabilitation of 'thinking' as something it's hard to imagine 'problem solving' being able to do without. But for me, alas, it has Willo-the-Wisp qualities, that prompt me to wonder why 'thinking' seems to be magically prescient one minute and intent as hell on keeping mute the next. Maybe 'inspiration' is a special kind of thinking, to which Mr. Fronsdal's advice doesn't fit, or, alternatively, it does but I haven't had the time to work it all out yet. Anyway, for me, this is a key conversation and I'm grateful for the work that has gone into it and the unrestricted candour with which it has been presented.
Gil has these expressions that are a sort of blissful cross between Steve Jobs and Timothy Leary. He's definitely jamming with the bodhisattva rockstars if you ask me.
