Blinking Doesn't Actually Interrupt Seeing, Thinking Doesn't Actually Interrupt Being
Each time we blink, it can feel like seeing goes away. But actually, we're still seeing darkness, and we can't help but keep seeing as long as we're conscious and have functional eyes. In a similar way, each time a thought arises, it can feel like our awareness recedes or vanishes completely, replaced by the thought itself. But the thought is actually not able to interrupt our bare being in the same way that blinking cannot actually interrupt our bare seeing.
