Ones awareness is lost in the watching of the movie
Being mindful mean awareness reflects your state of mind when it is not lost in a movie.

When mind is chasing thoughts then one is not being mindful
Thoughts tend to take mind away or support emotional rants
Awareness is lost. Mindfulness is lost
Being aware of breathe is an exercise in awareness and concentration
When aware that you are not one breathe, return to breathe
It will help one stay aware of the present moment
As one stays on breathe, the mind quiets and thoughts slow
Emptiness flows from forth
Awareness distills to essence and reflects oneself
Every moment Zen brings this clarity to life
It isn't about stop thinking. That will only leave you lost in your silence.
Now, I believe I have done enough damage
Still most will read and not understand .... hahahaha

Thinking is the result of the following...
Mental illnesses.
Crazyness, insanity
greed, anger, jealousy,...
stress, loss of energy..
lack of attentiveness, lack of focus,
easy to believe, always looking for the answer from others by listening to talks, reading books..
your body and face looks like it was a battleground.
thinking of God yet don't exactly know God
always repeat what others says.. repeat from scriptures..
Philosophy is thinking.
But Zen is not thinking
That is they basic difference.

You can not survive in this world without thinking.
Whether you play a game like chess or work in a factory, thinking is a must to accomplish the task at hand
You never lose the need for thoughts
And Zen Buddhism is not about stopping thoughts
I'm tired ... so stop your thinking and see where you are ...
Tell me what have you achieved and what good has this done for you
Present your findings please.
