Not Part of Thought

Is it possible for a person to think, to have the mind engaged in logical thought and observe, be aware of something that is not part of thought and the thinking process?  We cannot describe or define this "something" because when we do it becomes part of thought.  We are keenly and simply aware of this non-movement as a presence that is without motive.  It has no beginning or end.  It neither exist nor is it non-existent.  It is that space between words in which truth resides.  We are not talking about any "Religious", "Spiritual" or "New Age" esoteric nonsense.  We are seeing the moment as it unfolds and realizing for ourselves (without any influence from thoughts affected machinations) the truth of that moment.  Very plainly we observe without choice or judgement the fact of reality as it is.  In that moment because we are aware of the inner and outer movement of a self that is seeking to control, we encounter an uncontrived intelligence that displaces the self that thinks it knows.  What happens next?  Nothing happens.  But one understands in a different way...a new and different intelligence.  That intelligence is the new and never before which "is" only in the absolute moment.

Since we cannot capture that intelligence and put it under a microscope, a person may say that it is a mind game.  That such intelligence only exist as an illusion.  And that would be correct, because when one says intelligence, the word and all that goes with it, in your own mind, it is an illusion.  A person can only "know" illusion, one cannot "know" the reality of it.  One can only experience it in the moment.  Once the mind allows the moment to pass and become the known (which is always in the past) then illusion is the result.  Staying in the moment is intelligence that is beyond the known. If you are choicelessly and timelessly aware in the moment then...
