You can perhaps say that it worked as a catalyst for me, as I would not give up before I understood what was being said here. Anyway, here it is:

"There is no thinker behind the thoughts"

No amount of "knowledge" can explain what is being said there, and that is what I love about it. It can only be understood by direct experience. And the understanding of it will increase with a persons Level of Consciousness.

It means Thought is source of all that is created. Prime to all that was created by it.

Edit: I re-read my answer and I am struck by the pompous sound of my words, . I must apologize for this my friend. I have missed the point, hehe.
