There is nothing wrong with thought – even though some categories of meditation instruction would have you accept that this is the case.

Moreover, thought—according to Buddhism in general—is a sense-faculty, rather than a function that is separate from the senses.p35, Shock Amazement : The four naljors and four ting-ngé’dzin from the Dzogchen series of the nature of Mind.
