To me , "life" is a journey in a process towards purity and life is there as long as one attached to his awareness ,,,,,,,,,,and one will continue to have "life" as long as he have will to exist and attached in his awareness ...........thought is part of awareness resulted from own emotions and expectation .......thought is part of self exploration in own journey known as life ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,so thought is in life but life is more than thought ...life is the whole emotion and Buddhism is a PROCESS to freedom from emotion , freedom from life ...............

Not imaginary - a word which is contanimated by the idea of unreality.
A physical spiritual universe.
The heavenly earth.
Not a world of concepts.
Not models or universals in logic.
Imaginal. |

Well it is so easy to test if life is just a thought. You can whack a hammer on your head and see when you cannot think anymore if you are still alive...lol |

Q: What is the use of samadhi, and does thought subsist then?
Maharshi: Samadhi alone can reveal the Truth. Thoughts cast a veil over Reality, and so It is not realized as such in states other than samadhi. In samadhi there is only the feeling "I Am" and no thoughts. The experience "I Am" is being still. |
