Rest refers to the state of accepting a ‘meaningless stimulus,’ rather than being an absence of any stimulus. There is no genuinely meaningless thing in this world; paradoxically, meaninglessness is meaningful because it ‘has no meaning.’ Excessive information and stimulation can destroy creativity. We intentionally need to be in a state of accepting meaningless stimuli in our daily lives. Whether it’s listening to music, enjoying the sounds of nature, or observing ordinary visual scenes that don’t matter, anything is acceptable. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
